Build a slide presentation (PowerPoint preferred) of the hypothetical health promotion plan you developed in the first assessment. Then, implement your health promotion plan by conducting a hypothetical face-to-face educational session addressing the health concern and health goals of your selected group. How would you set goals for the session, evaluate session outcomes, and suggest possible revisions to improve future sessions?
Title: The Challenge: Type 2 Diabetes
Content: A simple, direct explanation of Type 2 diabetes and its prevalence, particularly among older adults and certain ethnic groups.
Speaker Notes: "Type 2 diabetes is a significant health concern in our community, especially for those over the age of 55. It is a chronic condition that can lead to serious complications if not managed, but the good news is that it is often preventable through lifestyle changes. By focusing on health promotion, we can make a real difference in people's lives."
Title: Who We're Helping
Content: Details of the hypothetical group: approximately 15 older adults, ages 55-70, predominantly African American and Hispanic, with low to moderate income.
Speaker Notes: "Our focus is a group of older adults who regularly meet at the local community center. Their demographics—including age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status—make them particularly susceptible to Type 2 diabetes. Understanding their background is the first step toward creating a plan that is truly effective and culturally sensitive."
Here is a 10-12 slide presentation outline based on the hypothetical health promotion plan for preventing Type 2 diabetes in older adults.
Title: A Community-Focused Approach to Diabetes Prevention
Content: A brief introduction to the project's purpose and a welcoming image.
Speaker Notes: "Good morning, everyone. My name is [Your Name], and I'm here today to present our health promotion plan aimed at preventing Type 2 diabetes in older adults within our community. This presentation outlines our strategy to empower a specific group with the knowledge and tools they need to live healthier lives."
