Social Media Campaign

(B) Community Health Nursing Diagnosis Statement

Format:

Increased risk of (identification of health problem or risk) among (affected aggregate or community) related to (etiological to causal statement) as demonstrated by (evidence or support for diagnosis).

Example:

Community Health Nursing Diagnosis: Social Isolation of the Elderly: Increased risk of social isolation among the elderly population of xyz county (your county or city) related to lack of social activities due to the current pandemic as demonstrated by above average depression rates among the elderly.

            This statement clearly identifies the population of interest and the problem, but also gives clues to potential experience activities: Would more interactive activities available on social media be a solution? Or are there safe methods for the elderly to attend activities in the community? Is there adequate bus or transportation for the elderly?

Refer to:

· Unit 2 Module 2 of the course for the role of nurses in community health promotion and prevention.

· Unit 3 Module 3 of the course to understand assessment of the community.

· Unit 4 Module 4 of the course to assist with identifying the target population.

(B1) Health Inequity/Disparity

For the section on health inequities/disparities, you will identify imbalances of service within your community and provide data to support these imbalances or inequities.  Think about your general population and populations at risk related to your health concern.  For health disparity you will explain why your target population is more at risk, being left out, or in need of attention compared to other groups. For example, from your Field Experience did you identify any vulnerable populations of the community who were at a disadvantage for services?  Was insurance, access to services, income, location, lack of understanding contributes to some individuals not receiving higher levels of resources?  You will back up your findings with data from your community.  The data can include statistics supporting poverty levels, transportation services, insurance or lack of insurance, organizations available to community members, etc.……

Refer to:

· Unit 3 Module 3 (page 14) of the course for sources and data to assist with the community assessment and identify the inequity/disparity leading to the topic.

· Unit 3 Module 3 (page 16) of the course for Healthy People 2020 Topics and Objectives.
