...WK8DCRNURS6561N-2 Cynthia L Williams Walden University Direct Care Roles in Health Promotion & Disease Prevention Across the Life Span NURS-6561N-2 October 19, 2015 Community Needs In week 6, I discussed my community of Louisville, KY. In that discussion I focused on the obesity and tobacco use rates in the state of Kentucky. These health issues contribute to the mortality and morbidities in Kentucky. In the 2014 Louisville Metro Health Equity Health Report, 51.7% of individuals in Louisville were pre-diabetic or diabetic in 2011 according to the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), (Arno & Rock, 2014). Obesity and diabetes are correlated health statuses and are often referred to as “DIABESITY”, (A. Hollier, personal communication, October 21, 2015). The dietary lifestyles of adults and youth in Louisville combined with the lack of physical activity reflect in the overwhelming statistics of diabetes. Smoking complicates every disease process. As of 2014, 26.2 % of adults, 18 years old and over are currently smoking, (Center for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC.gov], 2014). These lifestyle choices, disease processes and practices increase the risk of developing heart disease and stroke, (Arno & Rock, 2014). Strategies for Implementation Effort to improve the health state of the community, seem monumental when every patient is suffering from diabetes, smoking, lack of physical activity, dyslipidemia or has had some type of...

I will describe how the utility company LG&E is guilty of Environmental injustice to the Louisville residents of the Pleasure Ridge Park neighborhood, which Bell describes as powerless communities that suffer from human caused environmental disasters by the hands of powerful organizations and governments (Bell 2009). Case Summary Louisville Gas and Electric Company is a utility company that provides natural gas and electricity services for Louisville, Kentucky, which total to approx. 718,000 customers, as well the 16 surrounding counties (Unknown, Author 2014).

...Kentucky Fried Chicken Strategic Plan-Part One Jeanette Cortez, Autumn Crowther, James Hopper Fernando Manaloto, Joe Newkirk, and Rita Salem International Strategic Planning and Implementation STR/GM 581 March 31, 2011 Dr. Tim Becker, MBA Introduction Kentucky Fried Chicken has been established as a franchise in Latin America and the focus of this plan will be the El Salvador franchise. The strategic management process is vital and a well laid out plan is necessary. Consequently, by evaluating the background of KFC, the outcome should lead to a clear mission and vision statement outlining the purpose and goals of the company. Also, the mission and vision will keep all shareholders informed of the objectives that should be met by KFC. “Defining the company mission is one of the most often slighted tasks in strategic management” (Pearce II & Robinson Jr., 2009, p. 42). A mission lays out the organization’s goals and basically specifies the purpose of the organization. Decisions and strategies can be established after environmental scanning is done along with a Situational Analysis (SWOT). The strategic process also involves frequently assessing the industry structure and choosing strategic plan options that help expand global operations. The two chosen strategic options that will be discussed will be product differentiation and cost leadership. This plan should give clarity on how the options and recommendations fit with both the competitive situation...

...Stress Management Identify a specialty that fits for your geographic area and justify your selection. In the United States, 75% of the population has reported experiencing some level of stress every two weeks. On top of that, half of these people experience moderate or high levels of stress in the same two weeks (“Stress facts and statistics,”, 2010). High levels of stress are more harmful than most may realize. The long term exposure to stress can disrupt almost all your body's processes. This puts you at increased risk of numerous health problems, including: heart disease, sleep problems, digestive problems, depression, obesity, memory impairment, and the worsening of skin conditions, such as eczema (Mayo clinic, 2010) According to Livestrong.com, Phenobarbital, Butabartital, Butalbital, Amobarbital, Alprazolam, Chlordiazepoxide, Clonazepam, and Diazepam are all common medications used for the treatment of stress (Andrews, 2011). But the popularity of finding new treatments that do not involve medications has been rapidly increasing. That being the case, I would introduce stress management specialists into my facility. A stress management specialist can help one reduce, prevent and cope with stress in their life by teaching them organization skills, relaxation skills and time management. Stress Management Specialists are trained to identify the source of stress so that they can best recommend how to cope with and manage the stress as well as how to avoid stressful...

...human services network in the United States, serving people of all religious, ethnic, social and economic backgrounds and Catholic Charities of Louisville, Inc. is the largest, private human services agency operated by the Archdiocese of Louisville. The Archdiocese of Louisville itself also comprises of twenty-four counties in Central Kentucky and serves a population of approximately 1.1 million (Catholic Charities of Louisville, n.d.). A strategic alliance that seems fit for Catholic Charities of Louisville and the Catholic Charities organization as a whole is with a financial institution that can help with the management of funds and that are donated and funded through various different organizations. Another alliance that seems ideal would be through other local organizations that can help with aiding those in need, like United Way, the metro governments associated within the cities and with different schools and universities that can provide support for the children and their families that may be in need. These alliances would be an ideal fit for an organization like Catholic Charities that provides a variety of services but not limited to, such as, case management and family support, disaster response, housing development, language services, immigration legal services, and refugee resettlement services (Catholic Charities of Louisville, n.d.). Catholic Charities signed a strategic alliance agreement with Banca Civica Group, a Spanish bank. The alliance will help provide...

Ali won the Golden Gloves Tournament in 1959 and an Olympic gold medal in 1960. During the 1960s Ali won all of his bouts with the majority of them by knockout. Since his retirement, Ali has devoted much of his time to philanthropy. Quotes "The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life." – Muhammad AliEarly Life Boxer, philanthropist, social activist. Born Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. on January 17, 1942, in Louisville, Kentucky. Once one of the top American boxers, Muhammad Ali has shown that he is not afraid of any fight—inside or outside the ring. Growing up in the segregated South, Ali experienced firsthand the prejudice and discrimination that African-Americans faced during this era. At the age of 12, Ali discovered his talent for boxing through an odd twist of fate. His bike was stolen, and Ali told a police officer, Joe Martin, that he wanted to beat up the thief. "Well, you better learn how to fight before you start challenging people," Martin reportedly told him at the time. In addition to being a police officer, Martin also trained young boxers at a local gym. Ali started working with Martin to learn how to box, and soon began his boxing career. In his first amateur bout in 1954, he won the fight by split decision. Ali went on to win the 1956 Golden Gloves Championship for...

...INTRODUCTION KFC (the name was originally an initialize for Kentucky Fried Chicken) is a fast food restaurant chain that specializes in fried chicken and is headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, in the United States. It is the world's second largest restaurant chain (as measured by sales) after McDonald's, with 18,875 outlets in 118 countries and territories as of December 2013. The company is a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, a restaurant company that also owns the Pizza Hut and Taco Bell chains. KFC was founded by Harland Sanders, an entrepreneur who began selling fried chicken from his roadside restaurant in Corbin, Kentucky, during the Great Depression. Sanders identified the potential of the restaurant franchising concept, and the first "Kentucky Fried Chicken" franchise opened in Utah in 1952. KFC popularized chicken in the fast food industry, diversifying the market by challenging the established dominance of the hamburger. By branding himself as "Colonel Sanders," Harland became a prominent figure of American cultural history, and his image remains widely used in KFC advertising. However, the company's rapid expansion saw it overwhelm the ageing Sanders, and in 1964 he sold the company to a group of investors led by John Y. Brown, Jr.and Jack C. Massey. KFC was one of the first fast food chains to expand internationally, opening outlets in the United Kingdom, Mexico, and Jamaica by the mid-1960s. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, KFC experienced mixed fortunes domestically...
