Homework: Intervention Design
Topic: Mental health issue among teenage
Scenario
For this homework, you will build upon the work that you completed for the Topic Selection and Problem Analysis homework. It may be helpful to review any feedback you received from your instructor, as it could help you develop an improved Intervention Design.
Instructions
The goal for this homework is to design an evidenced-based intervention plan to improve outcomes for the population and health problem that you selected in your previous homework.
Additionally, you will be asked to analyze gaps and barriers related to accessing resources and care for the population, as well as socioeconomic determinants. You will also ground your intervention design in one or more scholarly or evidence-based model, theory, or best practice framework. You will also be asked to do a preliminary identification of appropriate communication strategies for building buy-in around the intervention.
One potential approach to outlining your homework submission is as follows. However, you should construct your homework submission in a way that makes sense to you, and could be potentially useful in your personal or professional pursuits.
Possible homework flow:
a. Restate the population and population health need for which the intervention is being designed.
b. Look at the gaps, barriers, and socioeconomic determinants in accessing resources and care for the population.
i. How do these contribute to the population health need? How would the health need be improved if gaps and barriers were mitigated?
c. Look to models, theories, and best practices for a framework that could help design an intervention.
i. Which will provide the best foundation for your intervention? Which are most relevant to your chosen health problem and population?
d. Propose an intervention to address the population health need.
e. Look for communication strategies that are proven for building buy-in.
i. Consider the relevance of strategies to the various stakeholders surrounding your intervention design and proposed plan.
f. Write a concluding paragraph to wrap everything up.
In your homework submission be sure you address the following scoring guide criteria:
a. Analyze the gaps and barriers related to accessing resources and care for the chosen population with regards to the chosen population need, and how might outcomes improve if the gaps and barriers were mitigated.
b. Analyze the socioeconomic determinants that contribute most significantly to the population health need of the chosen population, how might outcomes improve if these determinants were addressed effectively.
c. Explain a model, theory, or best practice framework that would be an appropriate starting point to address the population health need of the chosen population.
d. Propose an evidence-based intervention plan to improve the outcomes related to the population health need of the chosen population.
e. Identify communication strategies that are appropriate for building buy-in for the intervention plan with internal and external stakeholders.
f. Write clearly and logically, with correct use of spelling, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
