Assignment :

This assignment involves selecting a public health problem in your country. The assignment will include:

"a thorough review of the health problem, including how other countries are currently or have addressed this problem, and describe in detail a public health intervention that you would recommend for tackling the health problem in your country".

Introduction:

• Explain what you are going to be discussing - the country, the topic, the type of issues, the sources of interventions and potential recommendations.

Background:

• Introduce your topic - what is the problem, define it, explain it, discuss why it is a problem, the impacts.

• What are the morbidity and mortality statistics that link to this issue.

• Identify who is involved - particular population groups - age - ethnicity.

• Consider the determinants of health (and the burden of disease) in relation to the issue, highlighting areas of importance.

Implications for Public Health:

• Introduce public health factors - service improvement, protection and prevention

• Discuss current policy in your chosen country to address this issue - is this well funded, realistic, is there a skilled workforce?

• Discuss how the population at risk can be protected from the disease

• Discuss the prevention strategies that are currently in place- are they effective, how do you know? No, it was applied but no difference

• What are the strengths and weaknesses of the interventions? More education but not change in incidence - what are the consequences of using them? Much cost and less effect - how are the impacts measured?

Wider Perspectives:

• How are other countries addressing this issue?

• Identify those countries with a similar population.

• Demonstrate how risks are reduced - what are they doing?

• What are the outcomes and who is involved?

Recommendations:

• Consider appropriate recommendations that could be considered in your country - or if you are using an effective intervention in your country then how could it be used elsewhere?

• Are there any ethical issues you should be considering?

Conclusion:

• Discuss what you have found out and what you have learned.
