Diabetes Management Programs in African American Males Essay

My risk population is diabetes in African American males, this means 

that the entire work will be centered around this subject. Please be as 

specific as possible. Everything needed is provided below. This is a 

short task, but needs to be well done and straight on topic.

1. Chapters 9 and 15 in the textbook, Public Health Nursing: Population-centered Health Care in the Community.
2. You may find it helpful to visit the following websites regarding evidence-based, population-focused practice:
   1. What Works for Health (Find the section Policy or Program.)
   2. View the video, “Tools to Change our World”
3. Prepare to discuss the following prompts:
   1. Based  upon your reading and community assessment experiences identify a  population-centered best practice model (Policy or Program, not the  Intervention Wheel) or evidence-based approach to care that addresses  the needs of a selected at-risk population. A best practice model policy  or program is an approach to solving a population-centered problem that  has been proven to work and can be used to model a similar idea. State  your selection.
   2. What factors contribute to the vulnerability of the at-risk population you stated?
   3. How  does the identified best practice model or evidence-based approach  address the needs of this at-risk population? Specifically, what are two  ways through which health disparities are addressed to improve the  health status of this at-risk population?
   4. Considering the  Intervention Wheel model of population-focused interventions – and  considering the evidence-based approaches you investigated through the  web resources above, from the 17 categories, select three categories of  population-focused interventions and describe how each would augment  efforts in your community to improve population health outcomes for this  at-risk population. Explain your selections.
4. Research  and select at least two current scholarly sources to support your  explanations and insights. OCLS resources are preferred sources and can  be accessed through IWU Resources. Wikipedia is not permitted, as it is not a peer-reviewed, scholarly source.
