...Obesity HCA/250 March 2, 2014 University of Phoenix Obesity One of the leading causes of death in America today is Obesity. There are many different reasons a person will become obese. Whether it be gender, income, age or race it is still an epidemic and a health issue that needs to be addressed. When looking into the issue not only causes need to be addressed, the ways to prevent also need to be cited. People who are obese might not know how to get the help that they need, but education will help them learn. Living in East Stroudsburg Pennsylvania my entire life I have seen the obesity population grow from minor to major over the past twenty years. The town is better known as the “Poconos”, and is a large tourist and college town that borders New Jersey, and within two hours of New York City. With the school district noticing that childhood obesity is on the rise, there is only one psychological educational program that is offered for both children and adults. The program is called “Healthy in the Poconos”. Healthy in the Poconos offers counseling, education, nutrition counselors, and low cost fitness trainers for the community to access. Healthy in the Poconos on the outside seems like a great program but when researching the program in its entirety there is not a lot of education from professionals that can assist the community fight the ever growing obesity problem. Improvements that I would do immediately. First I would look into the funding. There doesn’t seem to...

...University of Phoenix Material Health Record Worksheet In 300 to 500 words, explain the importance of the health record. Support your explanation using your assigned readings. [Insert response here] Health records are important because they tell doctors about your past health needs. For example, if you broke your arm when you were five, or if you had a heart attack when you were fifty-seven that will go into your health record. Health records also travel with you. I am not sure how it works in the civilian world, but for the military when you move they transfer your electronic health record to your next duty station. It takes about two to four weeks for them to get there but all the information is there for the provider to see. There may be things in your health records that you do not even remember that happened to you. For example, if you got thrown out of a car and lacerated your spleen to the fourth degree, and then you found out later that you got pneumonia because you could not deep breathe because you had 3 broken ribs, that would all be in your health records. Health records all tell doctors what shape your in by the size of your health records. If you have a big long record with all the illnesses or injures that you have had they will know what they are dealing with before they see you. If you have a small health record then they know that you are in pretty good health and do not need to see the doctor very often. Health records are also important because they...
