Health Active Goals

The goals of Healthy People 2020 and the goal of nurse educators relates in that they both promote quality and the effectiveness of education to improve the quality of life for all Americans. For example, Coe (2012) state that the roles of nurse educators are critical in assuring quality educational experiences by preparing nurses for the workforce in a diverse and ever-changing health care environment. Also, nurse educators are leaders with evidenced-base documentation of the outcomes of educational programs that guide students through the learning process. Therefore, the goal of the nurse educator is to improve quality by providing safer care to patients (Coe, 2012).

1. Give an example of a goal you reached and tell me how you achieved it.

One cause is genetics some people are prone to more illnesses and diseases than others. Lifestyle choices of whether to eat health, exercise, drink water, and see a doctor regularly can make some people healthier than others. A person’s income and access to health care can cause them to be health or unhealthy. Formal education has a positive effect on the health of an individual. A person with a strong support system can have better health due to the support and assistances they can provide. The physical environment can negatively affect a patient’s health if they are in an area without easy access to health care, or work with carcinogens.

Public health protection is one of the most important goals of the government. In contrary to health care law which focuses on financing, organization and delivering medical services; by enacting and enforcing public health law, the government created conditions for people to live healthier and safer life. It’s a tool to create missions for public health officials, to assign functions and to exercise their regulation power in influencing health behavior, identification and response to health threats and development and implementation of health and safety standards.

Listed below are the goals I have set to complete by the end of this quarter:

Having a goal in mind helps you to be motivated, keep you focused, gives you direction and helps you to organize your time. My smart goal is to improve my health and to be more physically fit although any changes in my lifestyle could be difficult and challenging. I will try to change and improve it by trying to walk for 30 minutes per day, seven days a week. I made a plan that contain many steps which start with reduce eating junk food from 5-6 times a week to once a week to 2 times a month, start a new daily diet by increase the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables, record the number of steps I walked by using a steps app on my iPhone, when ever I have a free time I will try to do some stretching exercises, and to find someone interesting

In the article “A Qualitative Study Exploring Facilitators for Improved Health Behaviors and Health Behavior Programs: Mental Health Service Users’ Perspectives,” in The Scientific World Journal, we learn that world wide there is an increased risk for clients with mental health issues to also have physical health issues. Ability and influence are crucial aspects to captivate mental health service clients in essential health management revisions and treatment commitment.

For long term goals you don 't need to be as specific right now, but you should list them and under them list a few steps or smaller goals that need to be achieved before you are able to achieve them. With the long term goals always think big. Another good exercise for long term goals is to make a collage of you goals. Put pictures of the house you want on it, places you want to travel, a picture of your family, a number of what income you want in or anything you can think of.

I would like to take an unhealthy behavior and make progress towards changing that unhealthy behavior into a healthier one. I will be making a modification plan to help guide me achieve my goal. The behavior I would like to change is, lose 5-10 pounds by exercising for at least thirty minutes for four days a week. How I am going to accomplish this goal is by using the S.M.A.R.T. goal template to help break down exactly what I want to do, how to do it, and why I want to change. I will also, be using some apps, on my phone to help keep me motivated, give me so examples/training on how to exercise, and to track my progress.

According to “Be Active Adults,” if you are just beginning your journey of becoming physically fit, you should start slow and build up your activity over time. By doing this, you will prevent yourself from experiencing injuries. After a few weeks have passed, you should increase how often you are engaging in physical activity and also how long you are actually active.

To improve health behaviors, I would create awareness in people through education and counselling, such as by publishing the information on the internet, newspapers etc. I would teach people the relationship between the biology and genetics through PowerPoint presentation, brochures etc. To improve access to health services, I would propose the idea of modern innovations, such as telemedicine and emphasis on generating charity and funds to build more hospitals, urgent care, and primary care facilities. Generating awareness to the physical and social environment and volunteering to take people to places such as, grocery stores and teaching them strategies to save money for future use, can benefit them as

My second goal is communication. To ensure that I communicate in a manner that does not cause emotional outbursts. I will focus on being more conversational and more focused on finding solutions, not on the problem itself. I will spend the next thirty days, ensuring when I counsel a team member, I ask them why they think the issue is occurring, and ask for suggestions on how they can improve. When I communicate with facts only, this can sometimes cause a team member to feel accused and begin to lack motivation to get the work done. Since I want to maintain the level of staff that I need and not risk someone quitting, I will communicate with a view towards solutions.

My goals to help improve my personal life are going to help boost my mental and physical health. The first goal to spend more time with my friends I plan on setting up a lunch time meeting on Wednesdays for my friend Karen and my sister Breanna can meet up and chat with each other about what is going on in our lives. I will make sure that our schedules meet up and also will help to decide where we would want to go together. Both Karen and Breanna will help me reach this goal. An issue that might happen would be something came up for one of us and we wouldn’t make the meeting. Another goal in my personal life would be to go running at least 3 times a week. I

Monday morning for three weeks and create two goals I would like to accomplish that week (goals that

Goals are an important aspect to fitness and are fundamentally at the root of any desire for change. Any time it is decided that a change needs to occur there is a desired goal in mind. With this being said, fitness and health are no exception. Before a person digs out their credit card for a gym membership in attempt to better health, they need to decide on specific goals they would like to achieve. Goals can come in wide range of magnitude. As ambitious as a New Year’s resolution to complete the Los Angeles marathon might be, for one new to running, placing a goal of such a great magnitude on one’s self can easily be the first step towards failure. It is much easier to quit when there are miles to go rather than quitting with one step to go. This does not suggest that large goals should be all out avoided. Instead, one should set smaller goals as milestones leading up to an overarching goal. For example, someone may
