Partners In Health Organization Analysis

The World Health Assembly expects efforts to achieve the “Health for All” goals of the WHO to be collaboration between the country’s leaders, health organizations, individual countryman, communities and other countries (Maurer and Smith 2013, p. 115). There are many intergovernmental organizations (The WHO, the Pan American Health Organization, the United Nations Children’s Fund, the World Bank, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention etc.) as well as voluntary and philanthropic organizations (Catholic Relief Services, American Friends Service Committee, Doctors without borders, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, etc.) that focus on the health of populations around the world, providing expertise, technical support, funding for economic and infrastructure development and for healthcare services (Maurer and Smith, 2013, pp116-118). As for other countries education in how to raise your own crops can be beneficial. Food and financial aid is currently supplied but perhaps that could be increased, with the introduction

2. Has the UN ever intervened in a conflict involving this nation? If so, where and how?

In the United States, the unsustainable growth in health care spending is one of the greatest crises facing this country. Health care spending is projected to increase from 17.4 percent of gross domestic project (GDP) in 2013 to 19.6 percent in 2024 (Keehan et al. 1407). Health care expenditures are the third highest government outlays besides defense and Social Security expenses. The uncontrolled rise in health care spending burdens families and businesses and affects financial stability of the government. It also prohibits the nation from investing in other sectors of the economy (Mukherji 391). Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are a health care model that has been proposed to contain costs and improve quality, efficiency and health

The World Health Organization (WHO) was established in 1948 by the United Nations, serving as a specialized agency to coordinate international health and public health problems (Wilkinson & Marmot, 2003, p. 4). Mason, Gardner, Outlaw, and O'Grady (2016) states that health is created where people live, work, and play; therefore being more dependent on one’s zipcode rather than one’s genetic code (p. 2). One of the goals of the WHO is to create a healthier nation which requires that the factors that challenge or promote health be addressed; these factors are known as the social determinants of health or the core determinants of health (Mason, Gardner, Outlaw, & O'Grady, 2016).

The finest healthcare organizations cooperate a combination of technology and training to accomplish their healthcare guidelines and policies with procedures. Technology solutions turn into serious enablers to smooth this method. This approach can aid in offering a structured outline for informing, approving, and collaborating to the establishment, as well as, safeguarding that older guidelines are accurately filed and not scattered in a manner that can result in a patient not receiving proper care within a proper timeframe.

My current health issue in an underdeveloped country is the recent measles outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This country is prone to many disease epidemics, as a result of frequent wars, which have resulted in poor health infrastructure and government services. Many people are not able to get access to or afford the proper medical care that they need, and this can contribute to the spreading of the disease. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, measles is often a life-threatening issue, along with occurrences of malaria and cholera. Many additional factors have also led to the large number of people infected, such as shortages of medicine and trained medical staff, the delay in medical relief due to the failure of authorities

For example, in my work experience, we were conducting health fairs and medical mission during anniversary celebration of our institution and during Baguio City Day wherein we were providing free medical services to the people of Baguio such as free vital signs taking, wound care, health teachings and consultations. In a third world country like the Philippines, where healthcare is not free but rather so expensive, activities and program like this that our institution was conducting and rendering was a great opportunity for the people to access healthcare services. The main target of our institution during these activities was the people from low income family who don’t have access and can’t afford healthcare services. This was usually a 1-2 day activity that we conduct every year. Beside from giving health teachings, we were also distributing health

Global health has always been an issue. There are always disease outbreaks, natural disasters, and countries who do not have access to the resources they need. For years, people have been working to get urgent medical care to people who need it most, and also to educate them about basic health and hygiene. There have been many organizations and partnerships who have contributed to the advancement of global health, but the one that stands out the most is the World Health Organization. The World Health Organization has impacted global health by who they are and what they do, what emergencies they have dealt with, and the research they have done.

The most challenging key to the development of a successful public health care agencies is the effectiveness of an intergovernmental (federal, state and local) relations. However, their relationship between these orders of governments is interdependent. The federal, state and the local governments work together as a team to provide coordinated and a very comprehensive approach towards the role of public agencies (offer support).

My former Manager Gail Kathol and coworker Lynn Adam had contacted me about applying for a possible position at United Healthcare. Since the time I worked for United Healthcare, I have completed my classes at Judson University for a BA in business administration. And will be graduating on December 9, 2017.

I would like to express my appreciation to The Pan American Health Organization, especially Ms. Raquel Graham, Mr. Gary Cooper, Mr. Julian Coakley and Ms. Barbara Sweeting who took the time out of their busy schedule to give information regarding the organization’s duties and answer any other questions.

The Malawi Government has been consistently looking for ways to improve the public health including maintaining a budget for disease prevention and control. The Government has also teamed up with the Ministry of health to create a Health Services delivery system in Malawi to address the needs of treatment and care of patients (CDC, 2016). Together the government and Ministry offer services to the community through Health centers and Hospitals, and also through community based educational services. They have set up Health Surveillance Assistants (HSA) to help create a connection to the community. The HSA conduct health education services, immunizations, and other services.

One specific case of this is in Guatemala, where poverty rates and malnutrition numbers are high. Here, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Mercy Corps, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc., and Hanns R. Neumann Stiftung (HRNS), are joining forces together to improve the lives of small-scale farmers and their families. This alliance, also called, Inclusive Market Alliance for Rural Entrepreneurs (IMARE), is in favor of the “Zero Hunger Pact”, which is to lower the high rates of poverty and malnutrition. The alliance not only supports the small-scale farmers, but advocates on their behalf. IMARE believes they should receive better chances in the market-economy. There have been changes made because of this demand and an increase in the farmers’ household food security has come forth. This shows that this is the right route and that Mercy Corps wants to continue being a part of this alliance and support the farmers in Guatemala. With that being said, there is still a lot to be done in the health area. However, without the public health help given by Mercy Corps, there may be no people to offer aid to.

Mozambique already has a primary health care in place using health centers, health workers and a health promotion department for the awareness campaigns. In addition, there are community leaders, free LLINs provided to pregnant women and children under the age of 5, malaria control policies and plans as well as other Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) which are valuable resources for the program.
