Discussion: Community Health Issues

This should be a 3-paragraph (at least 350 words) response. Be sure to use evidence from the readings and include in-text citations. Utilize essay-level writing practice and skills, including the use of transitional material and organizational frames. Avoid quotes; paraphrase to incorporate evidence into your own writing. A reference list is required. Use the most current evidence (usually ≤ 5 years old). APA format.

Please see references

Please focus your attention on the unique tools that nurses who work in the community utilize to care for populations, including the Intervention Wheel.

Please listen to Dr. Attia’s Ted Talk in the resources for this week and then respond to the following questions:

1) Pick a top health issue in your community and describe some ways in which a nurse might improve this issue at the population level.

2)Are the problems that your colleagues are sharing the same as you are seeing in your communities, or are they different?
