Take on the role of a local public health outreach worker who has been assigned by the superior to prepare a 4–6-page analysis of at least three interventions that might work in your community.
Preparation
You have already chosen a local public health issue from your own community for your Unit 3 assignment. Now you will begin the search for an intervention that will help you address the issue you chose. Start by summarizing your problem statement.
Refer to your Unit 3 assignment, and complete the following:
● Create a one-paragraph summary of your community public health problem statement.
● Include the justification of why it is an issue that must be addressed.
Library and Internet Research
Search websites provided for you in this course and the Capella library using key words from your community problem to find multiple examples of evidence-based interventions that seem appropriate for addressing your community issue.
Use the following strategies to conduct your search:
● Step 1 – Summarize problem statement: In a paragraph, summarize your community public health problem statement and justification from the Unit 3 assignment.
● Step 2 – Use key words for search: Identify the key words from the problem you have identified. For example, if your problem was obesity in elementary school children in your community, the key words could be "obesity" and "elementary school" and "children." (When conducting searches for this course, include the words such as "EBP" or "evidence" along with your other terms to ensure you are finding appropriate data.)
