Health Case Study

The first short-term goal is to decrease obesity. Interventions for this goal are nutrition education, weight loss programs, and increasing physical activity. The second short-term goal is to decrease the incidence of hypertension. Interventions for this goal are regular blood pressure screenings, treatment of people with hypertension, and improve medication access. The third short-term goal is to decrease cholesterol. Interventions for this goal are regular cholesterol screenings, diet education regarding high risk foods, and treatment of people with high

It shows important outcomes that result from the intervention, the negative effects that occur, their quality of life, and what the economic outcomes the patients are getting from this program.

Improving health outcomes enforced by teaming up to create health care that assists people live longer, healthier lives. In this initiative, type 2 diabetes and heart disease are the main focus. Type 2 diabetes and heart disease are

Program 1: one successful health project related to HP 2020 is the Franklin Cardiovascular Health Program (FCHP) in the community of Farmington, Maine. The program is a sustainable method to change the behavior and care for the cardiovascular problem; it is implemented to assess the local community. Their target population is the low-income residents of Franklin County in rural Maine; they collected respondents of about 22,444 during 1970 and used this data as a baseline. The intervention is a community-wide project aim to focus on health problems like cholesterol, high-blood, smoking, physical activity, and diet behavior.

The first section to be filled out on the CMS 1500 form in boxes one through 13 include patient demographic information as well as insurance information. This information is captured to ensure the proper claim is associated with the correct patient.

There are some risk factors that can’t have control, for instance, age, ethnic background and the family history of heart disease. The changeable risk factors are “smoking, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, physical inactivity, overweight, depression, social isolation and lack of quality support”. Therefore, it is not as simple as to improve knowledge and skills to change these risk factors. Furthermore, this needs a contact to reasonable services and supportive environments. The convenience of green space and better walking or cycle paths needs to be substantially available. The occurrence of Cardiovascular disease increases with age, where 36 percent of

Diabetes in the Native communities is on a raise, their children are obese because the fast foods are readily available and this is cause them to develop Type II diabetes around or after the age of 35.

The disease that I plan to purpose an intervention plan for is heart disease, specifically in the state of North Carolina. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2017) heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women; and contributes to 25% or one in four deaths in the United States (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). The American Heart and Stroke Association (2010) has reported estimated that 17, 154 deaths in North Carolina were a result of heart disease in 2010; and the most at risk individuals North Carolina are smokers, overweight or obese individuals, and individuals that have already had a heart attack (American Heart and Stroke Association, 2010).

The increase in cholesterol screening suggests that a community level reduction in cardiovascular disease risk may be achievable through low cost intervention combined with education efforts and compliance. Moreover, this is a cost effective and health promotion program, which can be provide by nurse or health educators rather the physician

The program should be applied to different levels of preventions based on short term or long term needs in the community. Primary prevention approach is required to promote and maximize health and wellness in the community before injury or illness occurs (Vollman et al., 2017). Therefore, the program focuses its attention on providing the community with information on cardiovascular health, nutrition, exercise and stress management (Harkness & DeMarco, 2012). The first idea for primary intervention is providing the community with free blood pressuring and heart rate screenings to recognize the population in risk. The information about this part will be provided to the community from different sources such as news, healthcare facilities, schools, community association, and churches. The monitoring will be done through the family physicians, nurses and different stands that will be set up in different locations of the community such as pharmacies, shopping malls, churches and health facilities. All the resident of age forty-five

The MAPP Task Force has convened for the purpose of formulating goals and strategies that will reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Pierce County residents. The goals and strategies are meant to show the interconnection between the vision of a healthy Pierce County and the current reality of residents’ health status. The barriers and modifiable risk factors presented are intended to provide an overview of what the community looks like now and where it is headed. Also presented are impact, process and outcome objectives that when performed should decrease CVD in the Pierce County population.
