Title Begin this paragraph with your introduction. The introduction should briefly talk about the purpose for a Community Health Assessments. Introduce your selected Sentinel City community. Assessment Using your eight social determinants of health (subsystems), discuss the living condition within your community. Present your overall findings relative to the assignment’s social determinants of health in weeks 1-4. Analysis From the information you discussed above, analysis the information as the overall health of the community. What are the strengths and the challenges of the community? Describe the data you found that directly relates to the health concern you believe exist for your chosen community or a vulnerable population in the community. This data can be obtained from your templates in weeks 1-4. Make the connection between your community’s major health concerns and the Healthy People 2020/2030 objectives. Nursing Diagnosis You may have to brush up writing nursing diagnoses. Once you identified the leading challenge for the community/population, write a nursing diagnosis. Here is a link to help you figure some out – https://nursekey.com/community-diagnosis-planning-andintervention/ Be thorough and specific related to the problem, interventions, and expected outcomes.  3 Plan In this section, you will detail your plan for improvement for you community. This is the section for your interventions. Interventions must be achievable, measurable, and time limited. Include the information gained from Social Determinate worksheet to build the plan. Include the people from the city and the community you will work with, for example, the mayor, the police, the local church leaders, etc. Plans should be detailed, realistic (funding and supplies type of stuff), time limited, and measurable. Evaluation Because this is a simulation, you will not have an actual implementation for evaluation, but you will have an evaluation plan. How would you measure the success or needed adjustments to the plan? Did the intervention help correct the issue? How would you know? Explain how these interventions will increase the quality of life for the people that live in your chosen SC community. Conclusion Briefly summarize your paper and draw your conclusions. Make observations about the community and its place within Sentinel City. What future do you see for this community?

Prepare this assignment as a 1,500-1,750 word paper using the instructor feedback from the previous course assignments and the guidelines below.

PICOT Question 

Revise the PICOT question you wrote in the Topic 1 assignment using the feedback you received from your instructor.

The final PICOT question will provide a framework for your capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).

Research Critiques

In the Topic 2 and Topic 3 assignments, you completed a qualitative and quantitative research critique on two articles for each type of study (4 articles total). Use the feedback you received from your instructor on these assignments to finalize the critical analysis of each study by making appropriate revisions.

The completed analysis should connect to your identified practice problem of interest that is the basis for your PICOT question.

Refer to “Research Critiques and PICOT Guidelines – Final Draft.” Questions under each heading should be addressed as a narrative in the structure of a formal paper.

Proposed Evidence-Based Practice Change

Discuss the link between the PICOT question, the research articles, and the nursing practice problem you identified. Include relevant details and supporting explanation and use that information to propose evidence-based practice changes.
