Assignment: Read the following articles, which can be accessed in the Trident library:
Purcell, N., & Cutchen, L. (2013). Diabetes self-management
education for African Americans: Using the PEN-3 model to assess needs. American Journal of Health Education, 44(4), 203-212.
Lindberg, N. M., Stevens, V. J., & Halperin, R. O. (2013).
Weight-loss interventions for Hispanic populations: The role of culture.
Journal of Obesity, 2013, 542736.
Choose ONE of the articles’ topics to focus on for the rest of the
SLP. You will use the information in the selected publication as you go
through the phases of applying the PEN-3 model to develop a hypothetical
health education program.
Write a three-page paper that includes the following:
- Provide a brief overview of the health issue among your selected
group, statistics about the scope of the problem, and its implications
for health. - Describe the Cultural Identity of the group you chose. Specifically address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within Cultural Identity applies
to your group and provide examples. Use subheadings to clearly show
that you have addressed each of the three factors. Support your
discussion with references from scholarly and professional references
(not just your opinion). - Reflect on the required readings, the article you choose for this
assignment, and your own beliefs. Then, briefly describe how culture
influences health care and what you learned that could help you
effectively interact with diverse cultures in the health care setting.
Length: 3 pages, excluding the cover page and the reference list. 3 references from required reading.
