The following international, national, and local agencies are aimed at keeping the public safe while seeking optimum health and well-being for all citizens involved. They provide assessments, develop policies, assurance, meet unmet needs, and enable access to health care (McCowan, 2013). They hone communities’ capabilities to respond effectually to health issues by shielding and endorsing the health of the community and its residents (McKenzie & Pinger, 2016-b).

Children are protected better when professionals who are supporting them know what the child needs and how they can work together to achieve this. Partnership working involves each professional identifying their own concerns, then sharing this with other professionals and finally taking prompt action if it is required. In order for this method to be effective, professionals need to be able to work together efficiently. In order to carry out sufficient safeguarding measures, it is beneficial to build a complete †̃pictureâ€TM of the child.

1.  In Chapter 5 of Collaboration Across the Disciplines in Health Care, there is a list of expectations a patient should set for their doctor (doctors are not mind readers, doctors don't have crystal balls, doctors don't know everything, doctors don't have "the answer",  doctors don't have magic wands, doctors spend a limited amount of time with you, doctors make mistakes, doctors are people too, and you have a job too).  After reading this list of expectations, do you feel that when you are a patient you meet these expectations? Are there any expectations that you do not meet or agree with? Furthermore, are there any additional expectations that you think should be added to this list?

Well planned partnerships are one of the best ways of improving the quality of services particularly to vulnerable individuals whose needs may otherwise be neglected.

Vaccinations have had a huge influence on enhancing the health of kids across the country, yet every year, regardless of the health department’s efforts, the number of parents opting out of vaccinating their children continually rises. This essay explores various articles, journals and facts about vaccinations in an attempt to convince the audience that this is a serious enough issue that warrants their immediate attention. The vaccination prevents dangerous and sometimes deadly diseases. One of the most effective ways for a parent to protect their child is to have them immunized. The vaccination does not only protect the individual child but also aides in the protection of the community in which the child lives. Opponents of vaccinations,

Gidget, a 1959 film about a young girl who falls in love with surfing, helped establish a prominent foundation for surfing in California. To some, the film may simply be a feel-good story about surfing and American teen culture. To others, it’s about breaking stereotypical gender roles and their associated societal norms. The film released soon after World War II and the subsequent baby boom. This was a time with gave Americans a fresh new look on life, and a time when many young adults and teens had plenty of leisure time. “Gidget also marked the end of an era and the start of a new one.” Surfing and Gidget play a monumental role in shaping this new era by defying gender roles and leaving a lasting imprint on society.

A structured advertisement and educations program was developed in Western Kentucky through a partnership to health immunizations for tetanus that demonstrated positive results for all parties involve (Main & Jones, 2014). Television spots, radio advertisements, and community outreach would be used to facilitate education and promotion. Gong et al.

In the health care setting communication and teamwork is paramount. They are both essential in providing high quality of care to patients. Health care professionals will have unique roles that ultimately piece together to reach a common goal and that is to provide a safe environment to satisfy their duties as practitioners to achieve a high standard of care and positive outcomes for patients. Interdisciplinary communication and teamwork among distinct medical workers is an integral part of professional development as it provides insight into one’s own role as well as the role of others involved in providing necessary care for patients. This report will explore examples of different healthcare roles involved in providing care for a patient

These are people, groups, and organizations that have a common similar mission, whose would easily appreciate the advantage of joining forces. Such as, national health authorities, national/international health advocacy organizations, medical associations, health care providers, health or child-focused nongovernmental organizations. Furthermore, it is crucial to study, carefully, their reputation, their strengths and weaknesses. The coalition influence power is greater than some groups working on their own because, coalitions allow you to access

In conclusion, the success or failure of the capacity building efforts is also dependent on the commitment and willingness of the coordinating or sponsoring officers or authorities (Serapioni & Duxbury, 2014). Thus, it is imperative for the health promotion practitioner to efficiently coordinate the citizen committee and the sponsoring organizations (Kendell, 2014).

A central premise to health improvement is gaining insight from the public on their health concerns. This insight led to the creation of health coalition in many communities to determine best practices to address these concerns. Established coalitions provide opportunities for individuals and groups to collaborate and build trust around a shared concern to create an action plan to address the problem (Hodges). Coalitions empower participants, increase accountability, reduce duplication of efforts, and support social and dynamic engagement around shared goals (Hodges). Another option that expands the coalition model is the use of community advisory
