Proposal for a Community Health Intervention and Annotated Bibliography

For this Final Project, you develop a proposal for an intervention that addresses a public health problem identified in a particular community or one that is relevant to your own Public Health research and practice interests.

Project Instructions 

To complete this Final Project, you work with your instructor to identify a pressing Public Health issue relevant to your community and/or personal research and professional practice interests. 

The proposal can be for developing a program, an intervention or a research study.

The Project will be completed in a format consisting of the following components:

· A 8-page paper using APA format (not including title page or references) 

· A Table of Contents

· A Manuscript (components list follows) 

The manuscript section of your Final Project must include the following components:

Section I: Introduction (1 page)

In this section, you will include the following elements:

· A description of the health problem you identified

· A brief outline of the need for the community health intervention you are proposing

· Sources of data that you will use to provide a rationale for your intervention proposal

· A statement of the problem or purpose of your proposed intervention

Section II: Annotated Bibliography (3 pages) 

In this section, you will include the following elements:

· An Annotated Bibliography that includes the following: 

* Sources: Six to eight recent (less than 3 years old) primary, peer-reviewed research articles that support the topic of your paper. Beyond the minimum primary research articles that directly relate to your identified topic, you may add additional, high-quality secondary literature (reviews or meta-analyses). You may also use websites if they come from a scholarly and relevant source (e.g., CDC, NCHS). Your sources must follow APA formatting. 

o Annotation: For each research article, include a brief description of the study aim, the methods used, and an analysis of the major findings. For each nonresearch source, provide a concise description of the relevant key points addressed in the source. Include in the annotation a brief description of how you plan to use each source (e.g., to provide statistics for the problem).

Section III: Methodology (2 pages)

In this section, you will include the general goals of your intervention. In your Applied Project these goals will be revised as SMART objectives. In the present project, this section will include the following components:

· Your implementation plan consisting of the following elements: 

** A description of the data based on a needs assessment

1) An explanation of the proposed intervention based on your research, suggested data sources, and annotated bibliography 

2) A brief outline of the proposed intervention 

· A description of the evaluation methods 

· A brief explanation of the ethical issues inherent in the methodology

· A brief explanation of at least three key community stakeholders and why you selected them

Section IV: Conclusion (1 page)

Module 16: INTRODUCTION: POLICY, POLITICS, AND THE DNP

 Adolescent pregnancy is viewed as a high-risk situation due to the serious health risks that this creates for the mother, the baby, and society at large. Describe various risk factors or precursors to adolescent pregnancy. Research community and state resources devoted in adolescent pregnancy and describe at least two of these resources. Research the teen pregnancy rates for the last 10 years for your state and community. Has this rate increased or decreased? Discuss possible reasons for an increase or decrease. 

The case scenario provided will be used to answer the discussion questions that follow.

Case Scenario: Ms. G.,  a 23-year-old diabetic, is admitted to the hospital with a cellulitis  of her left lower leg. She has been applying heating pads to the leg for  the last 48 hours, but the leg has become more painful and she has  developed chilling.

Subjective Data

• Complains of pain and heaviness in her leg.
• States she cannot bear weight on her leg and has been in bed for 3 days.
• Lives alone and has not had anyone to help her with meals.

• Temperature: 38.9 degrees C
• Height: 160 cm; Weight: 83.7 kg

Laboratory Results

• WBC 18.3 x 10¹² / L; 80% neutrophils, 12% bands
• Wound culture: Staphylococcus aureus

Critical Thinking Questions

1. What clinical manifestations are  present in Ms. G and what recommendations would you make for continued  treatment? Provide rationale for your recommendations.
2. Identify the muscle groups likely to be affected by Ms. G’s condition by referring to “ARC: Anatomy Resource Center.”
3. What is the significance of the  subjective and objective data provided with regard to follow-up  diagnostic/laboratory testing, education, and future preventative care?  Provide rationale for your answer.
4. What factors are present in this  situation that could delay wound healing, and what precautions are  required to prevent delayed wound healing? Explain.
