New Week New Challenges
Overview
Amazing job! Now that you have completed the analysis of other health challenges for your chosen location, you need to propose an intervention that will improve the health of the population chosen for your humanitarian trip. Effective interventions in global health should be culturally appropriate and may often be complementary and integrative.
Recall from the project scenario that the SNHU Humanitarian Aid Foundation has offered your team a grant of $100,000 for this trip. Ultimately, you will present your findings and recommendations in a research paper designed to persuade your sponsor to award you the funding for your proposed trip. In this assignment, you will investigate scholarly literature to offer an intervention. Your intervention should align with the cultural expectations of the population. Consider the following questions: What are the complementary and integrative health approaches that may support the intervention? What can be an alternative intervention approach for your given location?
Prompt
Building on the prior project preparation assignments, propose an intervention to improve the health of the target population. Then, craft a short paper describing the intervention. For the following elements, search the scholarly literature to support your responses.
Note that you should cite at least three scholarly sources from your investigation. The evidence should not be older than five years. To access the Shapiro Library Guide: Nursing—Graduate, go to the Start Here section of the course.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
- Conventional (modern, Western medicine-based) Intervention: Propose a conventional intervention for the chosen population.
- Vision: Articulate the vision for the conventional intervention. Supply evidence from credible sources to illustrate your claims.
- Description: Describe the conventional intervention you are proposing.
- Purpose: Assess the objective to be gained as a result of the intervention.
- Rationale: Explain the reason that this intervention is the best choice for the challenge.
- Implementation: Discuss how the conventional intervention would be implemented for your chosen population.
- Personnel Required: Describe the roles and responsibilities required to effectively and efficiently implement this intervention. Which members of the interdisciplinary team are needed to perform this intervention to match current best practices effectively?
- Supplies and Other Technical Requirements: What tangible supplies, information technology, and technical equipment will be necessary to safely and effectively implement this intervention based on current best practices?
- Cost: Outline the general estimated costs for the implementation of this intervention. Include the cost of personnel, supplies, and technical requirements. What will cost more and why? You do not need a line-item budget, but you should include overall cost considerations.
- Vision: Articulate the vision for the conventional intervention. Supply evidence from credible sources to illustrate your claims.
- Complementary or Integrative Health (CIH) Intervention: Propose a complementary or integrative health intervention (CIH) for the chosen population.
- Vision: Articulate the vision of the nature of CIH intervention. Supply evidence from credible sources to illustrate your claims.
- Description: Describe the CIH intervention you are proposing.
- Purpose: Assess the objective to be gained as a result of the intervention.
- Rationale: Explain the reason that this intervention is the best choice for the challenge.
- Implementation: Discuss how CIH intervention would be implemented for your chosen population.
- Personnel Required: Describe the roles and responsibilities required to effectively and efficiently implement this intervention. Which members of the interdisciplinary team are needed to perform this intervention to match current best practices effectively?
- Supplies and Other Technical Requirements: What tangible supplies, information technology, and technical equipment will be necessary to safely and effectively implement this intervention based on current best practices?
- Cost: Outline the general estimated costs for the implementation of this intervention. Include the cost of personnel, supplies, and technical requirements. What will cost more and why? You do not need a line-item budget, but you should include overall cost considerations.
- Vision: Articulate the vision of the nature of CIH intervention. Supply evidence from credible sources to illustrate your claims.
