 This assignment is aligned with the module objective "Demonstrate community assessments and apply the principles of epidemiology." As part of the written assignment, you will complete the following tasks:

· Identify one health problem you believe to be the most prevalent in your community. You may want to check with your local health department or a community health nurse. Also consider researching the morbidity/mortality rates health problems in your community.  School nurses and are an excellent resource person to contact. Helen must use Seneca county. In Seneca county, lung cancer is the most prevalence problem in this county. Zoe must use Franklin county Ohio and the most prevalence in franklin is heart disease.

· Analyze the problem using Milio's framework for prevention from the module 1 readings (Chapter three in your text, Table 3.2, pp 121- 125). Please focus on the table 3.4

Choose one of your nursing diagnoses and describe how your identified community health problem applies. Helen the nursing diagnosis will be sent to you through text.

· Describe the health people 2030 national goal that relates closest to your chosen Diagnosis.

· Develop one-long term goal, minimum of three short-term goals and interventions for your chosen diagnosis (you will be developing a teaching plan in week 3). The example is in page 214 of the textbook

Goals: A goal is a final outcome of what is achieved after you provide the interventions. Goals are broad in nature. Consider the long-term goal to be after one year and short-term goal after six months. These are community goals and will take longer to obtain.
