Scenario The Patient Outreach department where you work has asked you to create an education plan for an at-risk population that is underserved in your community. As an active member of your community you are aware of several health disparities among the population; some members have difficulty accessing care, others have little knowledge of their chronic disease process, and often cultural issues influence medical care. Patient Outreach would like you to select a group and create a lesson plan that will help educate them and help them better understand how to manage or prevent illness or disease. Consider characteristics of culture, ethnicity, and social background that might affect the target group. The population you choose could be a subset such as the elderly, an ethnic minority, a lower socio-economic group, or one that you have identified from your own observations. Some examples might be producing a lesson plan on how to manage diabetes or how to decrease the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases. Directions Create a lesson plan for your selected population. Be sure you identify the population your lesson is meant for. As you develop your lesson plan, keep in mind the comprehension level of your target audience and the information you want them to take away. Include the following: Explain why a specific population in your community qualifies as at-risk. Recommend evidence-based strategies to improve health outcomes for this at-risk group. Describe health care resources that serve this vulnerable population. Explain appropriate nursing interventions that will provide quality care to this vulnerable population. Create strategies to support plan implementation, addressing characteristics of culture, ethnicity, and social background that could affect the plan. Additional Requirements Write between 1000 and 1250 words (45 pages). Include a title page and reference page. Provide adequate documentation of ideas and appropriate APA citations of relevant literature. Use a minimum of 4 references. (These must be recent, from within the past five years.) Double space, and use Times New Roman font, 12 point.
