1. Select 5-6 states from around the country and briefly summarize the similarities and differences between the states. What trends do you notice—these could be about challenges states are facing or how they are allocating additional funding or expanded child care slots, or the federal funding allocated, etc. or a combination of several of these elements?
2. Reflect on how these changes (or lack of changes) in states correspond to the “availability, quality, and affordability” challenges of the social problem. To what extent to do you agree with the states’ priorities?
3. Describe a concept, topic, or issue from the readings and/or topic that you are unclear on or would like more information about.

Create a pamphlet using any type of publisher software you choose to educate clients on a current patient safety issue.

For example:

• How aging adults can care for themselves at home
• Medication–polypharmacy and how a patient cannot make a self-medication error,
• Or other appropriate safety issues.

If you have a question about a specific topic, check with your instructor. It is recommended that you save your pamphlet as a PDF for submission.

Your pamphlet must include the following items:

• At least five tips for preventive care for the patient.
• Information that should be shared with family or caregivers.
• Local resources in the community that might be available for this type of safety concern.
• At least three APA-formatted references published within the last five years.

This is the link to the article you will be writing this outline on and summarizing https://journals.lww.com/jhmonline/Fulltext/2019/0…

You should NOT simply read your article or parts of your article to the class. Please write about your own opinions and how you feel about the topic and situation. Please also write how this article relates to health planning and strategy.

Here are some additional points/questions you might also consider:

• What are the positions held by the people mentioned in the article?
• How do you feel about this event/issue?
• How does or how could this event affect you?
• Why is this event of significance? (Why should you or I care?)
• Could this event be part of a larger issue?
