Human immunodeficiency virus or HIV is a virus that is transmitted through body fluids through sexual contact, needle sharing, as well as mother to baby. The virus attacks the immune system and causes the CD4 cells, what helps fight infections, to be low (Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018). There have been great strides made, since the first diagnoses in the early 1980s, when it comes to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (National Prevention Information Network, 2017). The ELISA or the rapid HIV test is used to test someone for HIV. If the individual is positive, a confirmation test called the Western Blot test is done to confirm these results (Lawrence & Ashely, 2018). It is mandatory that all practitioners and laboratories report positive results to the local or state health department. The state department will then send this information to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (Hartog, 2013). When treated with the correct antiretroviral therapy (ART) patients can remain in the clinical latency phase for decades and live a normal life and are less likely to infect others at this stage (Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018). While there has been a national decrease of new HIV cases, Florida is seeing an increase in new HIV cases (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2017). For family nurse practitioners mainly seeing patients in the clinic setting, it is important that prevention is key and, education and screening needs to be the focus to help reduce the new cases of HIV. While it is not possible to prevent all cases of new HIV, we must make sure that individuals that are infected with HIV have the resources to receive their ART regimen and take it correctly.

What do you think would be an intervention to help decrease the amount of new HIV interventions?

Reflect on the current role of advance practice nurses in healthcare as the care providers at the front line of disease management and health promotion in primary care and many other specialty setting. What do you thinker some effective tactics for APN strategic positioning regarding pay quality? Should APNs position themselves as lower-cost providers who provide better care or push for comparable worth, same service and same pay?

The role of the community health nurse is to increase public awareness and compliance in health promotion within the community (Green, 2018). The role of the community health nurse not only includes taking care of the sick within the community, but also being politically involved in healthcare reform policies that may affect the community and being an advocate for the members of the community that the nurse serves (Kulbok, Thatcher, Park, & Meszaros, 2012). Furthermore, the role of the community health nurse can be specialized for certain stakeholders. For example, the school nurse is a specialized type of community health nurse in which the community stakeholders are the school, parents, and students. The school nurse’s role would be to work with the school and the parents to promote a healthy environment both at the school and at home. The broad scope of the role of the community health nurse involved not only promoting individual and family health needs, but community health needs (Green, 2018). The community health nurse works with the community stakeholders to promote overall community wellness throughout the neighborhood and surrounding areas (Green, 2018). It is important to appraise community resources as part of a community assessment in order to execute a fully-developed plan of care when community health issues arise. Resources such as nonprofits and spiritual organizations be valuable assets and partners with the community health nurse (Green, 2018). Partnerships such as these serve not only for platforms of reform and support in the community (Green, 2018). For example, nonprofit resources such as a soup kitchen, can help to level the health disparities that are often present in diverse communities or communities with a lower socio-economic population (Green, 2018).

A healthy community can be described as one in which local groups from all parts of the community work together to prevent disease and make healthy living options accessible. It also helps to reduce health gaps caused by differences in income, education, race and ethnicity, location and other factors can affect health (CDC, 2015). The community nurse plays a significant part in promoting, preventing, and maintaining the health of the community by using her skills, knowledge and expertise, and experience in the delivery of care in public settings. Care within the community is focused on disease prevention and health promotion through education, screenings and vaccinations to prevent communicable diseases.

The stakeholders play an integral part in promoting the health of a community through the implementation of policies and availability of necessary resources. Stakeholders assist in community health promotion by reducing health gaps caused by differences in income, education and race, and encourages equality. They often make contributions in the form of cash, providing goods and services, events, spiritual and psychological support. The development and success of any community is determined/measured by the health of its members; hence it is important for all stakeholders to play their part (GCU, 2018) in making the dream a reality.

Appraising the community resources during the community assessment is very important as these meet the needs of the people. If there is a lack of resources in the community, then there will be a problem because the needs of the people won’t be met effectively. For example, a church in a community helps in meeting the spiritual needs of the members by providing counselling and emotional support, prayer and worship service.
