HCA/430 Week 5 Assignment
Question Description
Final Project
Imagine you are a
policymaker or city council member and are actively involved in improving the
lives of the vulnerable. Via the first two written assignments, you have
already selected one vulnerable population, which is in need of a new program or
service within your community. You will research and design a presentation (APA
style Paper or PowerPoint Presentation), which you will present at the next city
meeting to advocate for your special population group.
The Final Project
should demonstrate an understanding of the reading assignments, class
discussions, as well as your own research and application of new knowledge. It
must contain the following elements:
- A description of why this population group is vulnerable and in desperate
need for help within your community. - Identification of the health service needs of this special population.
- In order to support your claims and opinions, cite statistical data obtained
from the county health department, state health department, and/or other
organizations and agencies.
Design a model program or service,
which is needed to improve the lives of your chosen population within your
community. Remember to design a new program not currently existent within your
community. In your design, include the following:
- A description of the continuum of care level (preventive, treatment, or
long-term care) your program or service fall into and how it meets the needs of
your selected group. - An analysis of the delivery modes of health services to be included.
- A discussion regarding the multidisciplinary approach that is incorporated
into the program. - An analysis of the role of legal and ethical requirements in the design of
the program.
Be detailed and convincing in describing the above
elements, as you are attempting to win as much support from the attending
members as possible.
Identify a minimum of two community
agencies/organizations you would like to partner with in some way(s) in order to
implement this program/service. Explain why you would like to partner with
these organizations and how can they help or benefit you with the implementation
of your program/service.
Analyze the current funding sources for
provision of health services to this special population. Discuss the use of
integrated funding. Based on your research, identify a minimum of two funding
sources that may potentially provide monetary sponsorship for your program or
service. Explain why these entities would be likely funding sources.
