Have A He ‚ù§ Rt Coronary Heart Disease Campaign

Americans are neglecting the top killer in our society, and each year this killer claims hundreds of thousands of more lives. This killer is not terrorism, but rather a completely preventable disease: heart disease. The epidemic is so serious that more than 1/3 of the adult population has some form of heart disease and “if all deaths from major [cardiovascular disease] were eliminated, life expectancy in the United States would increase by about 7 years” (Hoeger 384). As a society and as individuals, we need to fight back and lower the rate of heart disease. The best way to combat America’s top killer is to educate ourselves about heart disease and use exercise and lifestyle changes to lower our risk.

To improve the well-being of individuals through health education, counseling and detection screening programs. Over the next few weeks, our mission will consist of finding new solutions to better educate individuals in our society on the importance of health education, by improving care through technology, which ultimately better our society. Our organization will focus on fundraising, however, we focus on fundraising will be from a health perspective, to make sure we focus on individual health at all times. I will be responsible for the implantation of Better Health Care

The artifact I selected is a public service announcement from the American Heart Association. The American Heart Association has produced various health issue ads and campaigns geared towards educating individuals on health risks, symptoms, prevention and facts about heart-related conditions. In the beginning of this video, NBA player Paul George is seen playing basketball on a court by himself reflecting on how his mother’s stroke was devastating and sudden. Paul George then stresses the importance of knowing the signs of a stroke. This is known as the acronym F.A.S.T., Face drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulty and time to call 9-1-1. He desires to make sure that every person is knowledgeable of these signs so they will be prepared to act fast and possibly save someone’s life. I came across this video while looking up information about heart-related issues caused by high blood pressure. The message delivered in this video has become a reality for many in our nation. From this video, we learn that early detection is critical in increasing the stroke survival rate.

1. Innovation to improve the mortality and morbidity of cardiovascular disease in developing countries may involve new surgical procedures, new implants and pacemakers, coronary artery bypasses, surgical treatments for Atrial fibrillation, repair of congenital heart defects, heart transplants, aortic arteries repair, replacement or repair of heart valves, and aneurysm repair (Hsieh, Chang, Lee, Chen, & Chan, 2012). Moreover, the innovation involves the integration of computer charting and data collection. This may involve a computer-based data registry that is responsible of storing patient related data. Developing countries are stepping away from the pen and paper charting system to a more sophisticated computerized system (Hsieh et al., 2012). This will allow for better tracking and follow up of complicated cases. Moreover, technological advances in imaging, screening, and diagnosing methods may also help reduce morbidity and mortality related to cardiovascular disease. Developing countries are now able to conduct ECG’s, stress monitoring, heart changes monitoring, radiological procedures, and labs that could target specific cardiac markers Hsieh et al., 2012).

United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Healthy People 2020 (2018) recognizes cardiovascular disease as one of the most widespread and costly health problems in the United States, accounting approximately $320 billion in health care expenditures and related expenses annually. Healthy People 2020 (HP2020) identifies prevention of cardiovascular disease as one of the priorities and includes an objective “to increase overall cardiovascular health and quality of life for US population." (HHS, Healthy People 2020, 2018)

Think about the implementation strategy and/or intervention method your group selected for your community program project.

My proposed solution to this is that school counselors and city mayors can be a major source of inspiration to children who are affected by a challenge like this. They can advise them on how to build themselves with determination to make a difference.

As a coordinator, I help to facilitate monthly workshops which center around academic advisement, health disparities and the development of community-based projects in which our students could provide a service to our neighborhood. Partnerships for Progress reminds me that in order to increase the standards of living in underserved areas, it requires the work of many and continual encouragement. If accepted into the PCLP program, I will gain insight into the challenges associated with lack of healthcare access, but I will also receive tools that will allow me to join in the removal of these

After a lot of discussion, convincing and hard work, The Canadian Women’s Foundation was born, with the help of organizations, such as LEAF and YWCA. Today over $40 million in donations have been given to advance over 1,200 community programs and every women’s shelter across Canada (“Our History”). The Canadian Women’s Foundation’s focus is to empower women and advance their progress in society. Since women make up more than half of Canada’s population, using their skills and education, women can boost the economy. They believe that encouraging women can benefit all of Canadian society. Their focus is women who face the highest risk of poverty, violence, and sexual assault, such as the first nation’s women. One way they approach women in need of help is to go to different organizations and listen to what the women’s needs and issues might be and how the foundation can help with their funding. Another way they help women, especially when addressing poverty, is that they help the women realize their special skills that may help them make an income. The Foundation focuses on positivity and builds confidence in the women so they may help themselves. Instead of just funding programs, they help these women and girls escape violent environments, try to influence government policies to promote anti-violence, they focus on root

The article gave an overview about how heart disease affects women and what can be done to prevent the disease. My argument is well supported by this newspaper article because it does prove heart disease is a problem and the top killer amount women, but it is preventable if people start to life a healthier lifestyle. The article can be used to inform who heart disease effects the population, and what can be done to prevent the startling

The health objective I have decided to study is cardiovascular disease. Heart disease is one of the top five causes of death in Summit County. According to the research, it is the number one cause out of the top five. Summit County shares the same top five causes of death as the nation (Summit County Public Health website, 2016).

DHEO public health campaign plan includes posts messages on Facebook. Facebook, an excellent place to market, build network and collaboration (Laureate Education, 2011). A market plan includes business clip videos and pictures as a mean to disseminating important CVD lifestyle of the heart messages. Moreover, include DHEO business VP number and email for one-on-one or group telehealth consulting. Facebook provides opportunity to market to friends and families and attract stakeholders as a financial incentive to gain campaign momentum, yet build partnership (CDC, 2012). A second marketing plan is to a submit DHEO business video clip advertisement in Sorensen Messenger Newsletter (Sorensen ntouch, 2015). Like the Facebook post, the newsletter will consist of promoting DHEO health outreach and initiatives in recruiting

We all know someone who has suffered from heart disease. Whether it was from a heart attack, congestive heart failure, or stroke, some type of cardiovascular disease has taken the life of someone we loved way too soon. This epidemic of heart disease must be stopped through the collaboration of physicians, nurses, law makers, and concerned citizens. The purpose of this paper is to examine cardiovascular disease, the risks associated with heart disease and obesity per Milo’s framework, comparison of obesity and Healthy People 2020 national goals, and finally the long-term and short-term goals and interventions selected for this paper.

We can not only talk with, but we can see the person we are talking to thousands of miles away. It is mankind's greatest hour. Yet sadly, it is also our time of dying. Strange that no matter how advanced our society has become, our nation's health hasn't caught up. After all, heart disease, also known as cardiovascular disease, is our nation's number one killer (Preventive Magazine Health Books p. 153).

Through this class, I understand the general gist of what controls the community in terms of power, organizational strength, and political influences. I have learned about what factors into certain decisions that community members make and what the recent outlook of community participation is. Even though I learned that community participation and involvement in organizations has declined over the past years, it is hopeful to find ways to combat this social apathy that is happening in America today. I enjoyed learning about strategies to help groups of people interact and create an active and responsive community power. The Greene and Haines text was well-organized, strategic, direct, and practical to the subject matter.
