4. Reflections on Health Equity….We know that health status varies, in
many cases quite dramatically, between socioeconomic populations.
But why? Watch the video (California Newsreel, 2008) for an
example of how low birth weight affects different populations and
some thoughts on why these differences might exist.
Now it is your turn to consider what is causing health disparities for a
health issue. Review the health disparities section of Healthy People
2020 (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Then,
Select a health topic of interest from the list of Healthy People
2020 (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.topics
and objectives (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
2014b) and review the information about how this health
concern affects different populations.
Discuss the notable health disparities for this health concern
between one or more populations
Discuss what you think are the reasons for the differences and
some of the underlying factors that are causing rates of the
health concern to be higher/lower in different populations

Community Health Roles. Due by Day 7. Complete The Community
Health Roles worksheet located in your online classroom.
(Instructions are also on the first two pages of the worksheet)
Part I:
Start by reviewing the articles on quasi-government and non-
governmental agencies in your REQUIRED course materials. Then:
· Provide solid definitions of governmental agencies, quasi-
government, non-government agencies. Please do not copy your
10. definitions from a dictionary or any source. You must explain these in
your own words. Copying and/or direct quoting will result in 0 points
on this portion of your assignment.
· Explain the difference between public health and medical
services.
Part II:
INSTRUCTIONS: Complete the chart below. In each box in column 1,
you need to select four public health concerns from the list below.
(You might want to review information on some of the suggested
health topics in Chapters 5, 6, 7, and 9 in your textbook, listed in
RECOMMENDED course materials.) Your task is to find health-
related organizations/agencies and a link to their website that address
these issues at three distinct levels:
1. Governmental Agencies (column B)
2. Quasi-Government Agencies (column C)
3. Non-Governmental Agencies (column D).
Then, in column E, write in one or two sentences explaining why this
issue is a public or community health concern. Remember that
public/community health focuses on populations, not individuals.
Think back to your explanation in Part II outlining the differences
between public health medical services. You are required to review
scholarly research to determine the role of public health as it relates
to these issues. Each description MUST include a citation.
Please note that your description of the importance to public health
should not be rooted in the individual medical health care. Public
health focuses on populations, not individual care. See the example
below to help you with your worksheet responses.
Pick 4 from this list:
Premature infants Alzheimer’s disease
Injury and violence
prevention
Air pollution
Water pollution Diabetes
Food safety
Sexually Transmitted

HCA 415 Week 4 Assignment Advocating
for Public Health Policy
For more classes visit
www.snaptutorial.com
23. Advocating for Public Health Policy. Imagine that you have been
chosen to represent a public health advocacy group as they begin a
campaign to get legislation related to a health issue passed in your
state legislature. You have been tasked with the role of presenting a
proposed policy to the legislature and advocating that the legislature
vote for the policy. You have been told that you will have 10 minutes
to present to the legislature. Your presentation should be informative,
but also persuasive. The legislature will need to make a decision
about whether or not to vote for the policy based on your
presentation. Your presentation should be structured exactly as if you
were “live” in front of the legislature advocating for them to adopt
the policy you are proposing.
For your assignment, you will need to select a public health topic of
interest to you (you are encouraged to choose one related to your
academic major or intended field of work) and a public health policy
related to addressing the topic. You may select an actual proposed
policy or create one that you think would effectively address the topic.
Your presentation should provide enough information about the topic
and the proposed policy that a reasonably educated legislator should
be able to make an informed decision. Be sure to consider the various
questions that a legislator might have about the issue and proposed
policy, such as long-term costs and benefits, potential effects on
business and industry (especially those that support politicians’
campaigns), and how the policy will support the health and
productivity of state residents.
For this assignment, you should create an approximately 10 minute
presentation* that addresses each of the following points:

Health Resources

Allocating Public Health Resources
Imagine that you are standing on the bank of a river and injured
people start floating down the river towards you. There is no end to
the floating people…they just keep coming and coming. You are alone
and you do not have cell service to phone for back up. What do you
do? In your discussion post, discuss what type of assistance you
would want to provide. Explain where you think it would be best to
focus your energy assisting (ie. should you stay where you are and
pull people out of the river, or should you go upstream to find out why
injured people are ending up in the river?) Determine what
proportion of assistance should go to aiding injured people versus
preventing the cause of the injuries in the first place. Justify your
reasoning for why you would allocate your resources that way. (There
is no right or wrong answer to this; it is a matter of determining the
priorities between treatment vs. prevention.)

www.snaptutorial.com
Our DQ is Based on State Texas, South Carolina
What are YOU going to do about it? In the past weeks, you have
examined and explored the challenges and issues facing delivery of
29. public health services in a given community and across the nation.
The goal of public health is to prevent disease and promote health.
To that end, take a moment to review your own communities health
needs through a purview of current events, your own setting by
informally interviewing public health professionals, or reviewing
national databases like the ones listed below:
America’s Health Rankings. (2015). Retrieved from
http://www.americashealthrankings.org/ The Commonwealth Fund.
(2015). Overall Ranking, 2014. Retrieved from
http://datacenter.commonwealthfund.org/#ind=1/sc=1
For this discussion, you are asked to do the following:
1. Describe a significanat health issue in your community or state.
2. Compare its significance to the national priorities of Healthy
People 2020 goals (is it a national priority or just one found in your
state/community).
3. Explain what type of effort it will take to fully address it
(leadership skills, financing, organizational buy-in, stakeholders,
perceptions, barriers)
4. Evaluate the efforts YOU can take to address this issue. (As a
public health practitioner, what is YOUR role such as: Will you
develop, lead or be part of a public health program to address the
issue? Will you work on financing, organizational buy-in,
stakeholders...what are you going to do to address this concern?)
