I currently am employed at a community health center in a rural area; there are many different people who use this center as their medical provider. I am one of the front desk receptionists, which is where the communication between patient and doctor begins. Sometimes this can be tough due to the diversity there are many language barriers, but things have started to get better with time. The clinic has become very successful with different means of advertising and communicating what the clinic has to offer for medical services. The cliental is usually low income, in which the state picks up the bill, so they have used every available source such as bill boards, radio ads, and commercials to promote people to use the clinics to help keep health cost down.

...of an Advanced Practice Nurse I see myself working in a primary care setting in an area of most need. I see my role as providing comprehensive care and promoting wellness in a community where healthcare has been on the back burner for many years not only by the healthcare community but also by the community itself. I am hoping that by being a strong advocate for those who have had difficulty advocating for themselves that I will also be able to pass my attitudes and caring on to others who provide care for this group of people. I see my role as the nurse practitioner as being a primary care provider working in collaboration with an entire team to provide the best possible outcome for the patient by utilizing all available resources. I want to work in a community health center where this can and is being done. Those served by the community health center are in desperate need of health care, quality health care. These patients have not had insurance up until the institution of the Affordable Care Act and have been treated poorly, if treated at all, in our current health care settings. My role as their primary care provider will be one of providing quality, comprehensive care along with the health teaching they so desperately need. Working with physicians and Nurse Practitioners in the community health center I work in now I am able to evaluate the differences in their care. Physicians are needed for diagnosing and managing the most difficult of the illnesses and diseases but...

...I. Description of Project The project for this week or course was to: "Identify one of the waste "wedges" or categories identified in the JAMA article by Berwick and Hackbarth and explore the opportunities where managerial epidemiology principles applied in accountable care models of care can reduce waste". The reason for the project is to explore the reasons why, and possible changes that can take place to lower the costs of healthcare. Healthcare in the United States is at an astounding 18% of GDP and is definitely demanding a change to lower the costs of healthcare. Not only does the United States pay more for healthcare than other leading countries, it sees less quality of care. As per the article by JAMA, the minimum believed to be spent on wasteful spending is $558 billion per year, and a midpoint of $910 billion per year. Eliminating that alone is enough to make a change in our healthcare system. In order to elaborate on the topic, this project identifies one of the waste wedges I decided to write about, tells why I chose the particular one that I did, what exactly the wedge is and how it produces waste while affecting healthcare, and then finally what we can do to lessen the waste, as well as a proposition to eliminate waste in said category while looking at a proposal to better the organization and population. II. Selection of Topic For this project I chose Failures of Care Delivery as my waste wedge to explore. A. What is Failures of Care Delivery Failures...

...Christine E. Jones SWOT Analysis: Catawba County Community Health East Carolina University SWOT Analysis: Catawba County Community Health A Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis is a process that can be used to assess internal and external attributes that positively and negatively affect the health status of a community (Feldman, Alexander, & Greenberg, 2011). The ultimate goal of a SWOT analysis is to devise and implement strategies to neutralize threats to a community and to take advantage of opportunities. Additionally, a SWOT analysis is helpful in highlighting areas of vulnerability within a community and defining areas where a community can leverage strengths to maintain resilience (Feldman, Alexander, & Greenberg, 2011). Community resiliency is the ability of a community to respond and adapt positively to adversity. Resilient communities are able to reach a higher level of functioning by overcoming risk factors to minimize negative health consequences (Kulig, Edge, Townshend, Lightfoot, & Reimer (2013). By focusing on underlying resiliency factors such as healthcare access, disaster preparedness, and social connectedness, communities have the ability to transform their environment through deliberate and collective action in an effort to improve overall health (Kulig et al., 2013). A SWOT analysis of Catawba County was completed, with consideration of resiliency factors, to evaluate strengths, weaknesses, opportunities...

Several policies have been implemented in this direction. Our present work focuses on the primary health care concept that became the basis for the WHO following the Alma Ata Declaration (1978) that should lead to the goal of health for all. First, we discuss the similarities between models of primary health care described by Carl Taylor and those described by other authors, and then identify the other models described in the literature. Analysis of Carl Taylor on PHC: similitude and contrast Carl Taylor identifies in its analysis on primary health care, four approaches: Community-Oriented Primary health care (COPHC), the Alma Ata Declaration, the Community-based primary health care (CBPHC) and seed-scale. - COPHC: This is an approach that is divided into four phases: the definition and characterization of the community identify health problems of the community, the development of interventions and monitoring the impact of interventions.

...Taylor Reflection : Insights into primary health care : There is at least one common characteristic between different countries in the field of health is access to care. Needs of health are insufficiently covered by the provision of health services. Several policies have been implemented in this direction. Today, work focuses on the primary health care concept following the Alma Ata Declaration. The philosophy behind PHC (primary health care) is based upon: • holistic understanding and recognition of the multiple determinants of health • equity in health care • community participation and control over health services • focus on health promotion and disease prevention • accessible, affordable, acceptable technology • health services based upon research methods. These philosophical ideals have been variously interpreted into strategies and services which further the ideals. Primary health care strategies include needs based planning and decentralised management, education, intersectoral cooperation, multi-disciplinary heath workers and a balance between health promotion, disease prevention and treatment. Services to provide primary health care should be locally based, affordable and acceptable, well integrated and offer a multi-disciplinary range of care from health promotion to rehabilitation. This original ideal of primary health care has become known as comprehensive PHC. This is in contrast to selective primary health care which is more medically focused with...
