Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation about an evidence-based population health improvement plan. WITH SPEAKER NOTES

Introduction

Master’s-level nurses need to be able to think critically about the evidence, outcomes data, and other relevant information they encounter throughout their daily practice. Often the evidence or information that a nurse encounters, researches, or studies is not presented in the exact context of that nurse’s practice. A key skill of the master’s-level nurse is to transfer evidence from the context in which it was presented and apply it to a different context in order to maximize the benefit to patients in that new context.

Professional Context

Master’s-level nurses need to be able to think beyond the bedside. It is important to research, synthesize, and apply evidence that will result in improved health outcomes for the communities and populations that are part of your care setting. Improving outcomes at a community or population level, even incrementally, can create noticeably significant, aggregate health improvements for patients across all of a care setting.

Scenario

Your organization has created an initiative to improve one of the pervasive and chronic health concerns of OBESITY in the community. You will need to do your own research to gather and evaluate the relevant data for your chosen issue.

Once you have created a presentation for the initiative, you have been asked to present to a group of community stakeholders. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.

    • Explain how environmental factors affect the health of community residents.
    • Identify the level of evidence, validity, and reliability for each source.
  • Develop an ethical health improvement plan with outcome criteria that addresses the population health issue that you identified in your evaluation.
    • Consider the environmental realities and challenges existing in the community.
    • Include interventions that will meet community needs.
