Social Determinants of Health Scholarly Paper (25% of final grade)
(Submitted to Canvas & Turnitin under the Assignment tab in Canvas)
Students will choose a current or past clinical case and write a scholarly paper that describes the
relationship between a social determinant of health and a specific health outcome (e.g.,
childhood experiences and anxiety, or housing and asthma, income and obesity, etc.). Using the
Introduction-Methods-Results-And-Discussion (IMRAD) format, the paper should include a
description of the clinical case/medical issue/background, the relevant social determinant of
health that impacts the situation, methods of searching for evidence, results of that search and
any critical assessment of it, discussion recommendations for change as demonstrated by the
action/intervention of the Registered Nurse, and systemic or health policy related
recommendations. Recommendations for change and reasons why (medical and social) should be
based on three – five peer reviewed/published articles on the topic. The paper should be no more
than seven pages, not including cover page or references. A two-page Appendix will be allowed.

Assignment Overview
For this assignment, you will start a work-breakdown structure (WBS), schedule and budget, and/or resource utilization plan for your portfolio assignment project. It is important to consider all aspects of the project when completing your schedule and budget/resource utilization plan.
Your Tasks
For this assignment, you will design the following elements. To make it seamless, it is advisable to use project software (i.e. ProjectLibre, MS Project, SmartSheet) that can integrate all elements together as you design your WBS.
Work-breakdown Structure (WBS)
Detailed WBS that includes task information, WBS numbering, and anticipated duration.
If you are using project software, including resource/budget in the WBS line item and duration/task dependencies will help you create your schedule and budget quicker.
Schedule
You need to provide a graphical representation of your schedule. You can utilize any of the following types of schedule tools:
Gantt Chart
CPM Chart
PERT Chart
If your project has tasks that are variable, consider using PERT with ranges of times for your duration. This will allow you to keep track of variances in the schedule.
Budget/resource utilization plan
Budgets are utilized if there will be an expense associated with the project/WBS. This can be referencing your material cost, labor costs, or overhead costs.
Resource utilization plans are helpful if budgets are not tracked (often with internal projects). You will want to track elements such as man-hours, materials/supplies, infrastructure needs, etc.
Be sure that your elements are created clearly to the stakeholders of the project. If needed, provide a summary document with your required elements to explain anything.

For this first milestone, you will identify the public health issue you have chosen to research for your policy or program evaluation. In a brief but formal summary of purpose, you will outline the purpose and significance of the public health issue and identify the overall goals of the policy or program. In addition, you will produce a needs and capacity assessment identifying resources and assets the community already has, additional resources that would be needed, and a justification of need for this policy or program using data-based academic resources.
To complete this assignment, review the Needs and Capacity Matrix Template Word Document and Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric PDF documents.

The professor will place students in groups of 2 or 3 (3 only if needed) during week 3. Students should use the attached form to evaluate each other’s “publish” proposal. By reviewing other’s work:
The evaluator noticed opportunities for improvement in their own output.
Valuable input can be provided from another third party prior to the professor’s review (decreasing the chance of points being deducted).
Familiarize oneself with the grading criteria.
. When uploading the peer-to-peer evaluation form, be sure to include the actual work that was given for you to review. The peer-to-peer evaluation is worth 40 points and cannot be submitted late. The person being evaluated will not lose any points if the group member does complete this assignment.

There are a few structural variations when completing a research project, but the one listed below is the format that we are going to use. So, for your final assignment, please put your content in the following order:
1. Cover page
2. Abstract
· It will begin on a separate page.
· This may be new to you. These are a few brief sentences that are typically written after you have completed your project. The abstract serves as the summary of the entire project and is what most readers will view when searching for topics relevant to yours. For those of you that have never written an abstract before, this website does a pretty good job of explaining it:
https://tressacademic.com/write-paper-abstract/
3. Introduction
· This should be a few sentences to demonstrate to your reader what your problem is and how you are attempting to solve it. It should grab the attention of the reader.
· Please include your thesis statement within the introduction. It is an evolution of your hypothesis. Instead of trying to disprove/prove a scientific theory like a hypothesis, the thesis is nailing down on your particular direction of thought. You have read numerous articles regarding your topic and will provide references in your paper.
· Just so that it is easily identified, please underline your thesis when including it within the introduction
4. Body
· This will have the majority of your work involved.
5. Conclusion/Discussion
· This will inform the reader about the conclusions of your research and how the benefits will impact healthcare providers, patients, and insurance companies.
6. Reference page
This assignment should be a minimum of 13 double spaced pages in length (this includes all of the documentation itemized above), written in size 11 Arial font and have a cover page constructed in 7th edition APA format.
All resources should be included on a reference page using APA 7th edition format. Please refer to the article grading criteria listed in the syllabus section for the grading guidelines. . This is the last week of class .
Effective communication is an important competency of a public health professional. The public health professional must be trained to handle inquiries from the public, the scientific community, internal communication activities, and media requests.

It is critical that you know your selected audience to use appropriate communications platforms to disseminate public health information.
This is an important discussion assignment where you will describe a target audience to which you will recommend an appropriate communication platform to disseminate public health information. By now you have an idea that which is your target audience (population, gender, people from a particular occupation, education level age group, sex, region, lifestyle, etc.). Based on your research, and interest in the identified target audience.
(Read the articles – (( What we know about Links -https://www.cdc.gov/healthcommunication/pdf/audience/healthliteracy.pdf ))
Social Media Misinformation (( Links- https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/10410236.2017.1331312?needAccess=true ))
