Discussion Post: Health Promotion and Disease Prevention and Management Strategies
Submit the Case Study, in which you will address the chosen organization's health promotion and disease prevention and management strategies. Specifically, you will critique the organization's healthy living programs, disease prevention and management programs, and non-programmatic services. You will assess the cultural competence of these services using the population health approach. Be sure to consider issues such as how well the organization's health promotion and management strategies address a wide range of cultural beliefs and whether the organization's programs and non-programmatic services help to reduce inequalities among members of the population.

Health promotion and disease prevention and management strategies

• How appropriate are the organization's disease prevention and management programs and services (such as discharge planning, home health services, vaccination services, etc.) for addressing factors that determine population health status? Be sure to provide evidence to support your claims.
• Assess non-programmatic services (such as transportation, on-site child care, etc.) that may be offered by the organization for their impact on factors that determine population health status.
• Identify gaps or deficiencies that may exist in the organization's health promotion and disease prevention and management efforts, and provide evidence to support your claims. If you feel there are none, be sure to explain your reasoning.
