I’m working on a population health writing question and need an explanation to help me study.

Part 1: Identify Your Method(s)

Please respond to the question: What qualitative method or methods would you use to obtain information about each of the populations identified below?

Be precise in your identification of a qualitative method(s) and defend your choice of a method. Describe the results you hope to achieve.

• Exploring the feelings of patients over 65 in an HMO have about a new program (e.g., personalized case management).
• Determining the reason why an underserved population living in subsidized housing is not using the new clinic facilities in their neighborhood.
• How people feel about their health at a given point in time: a day, week, month, year, or longer period of time.
• What caregivers need to make their tasks easier?
• Why homeless diabetics are not taking their medication.
• If group meetings for diabetics who are retired are more effective than individual appointments.
• Activities a group desiring to change an unhealthy habit that persists over time.
