HLTH 630 Planning for Community Health Outreach Health Indicators Discussion

Consider the health indicators in the following https://health.gov/healthypeople/objectives-and-da…

the 13 indicators you will choose from are the ones in the list under all ages, infants, children and adolescents, and adults and older adults 

thirteen broad categories for improvement and their associated potential health measures have been identified.

Choose measures from 3 different categories. For each measure write and discuss a policy level objective you would like to see enacted to foster improvement in your community for that measure. When setting your 3 objectives, remember to state exactly what is to be achieved. What is expected to change, by how much, and by when?

For example, voter turnout rate is listed under community management. A supporting policy level objective for this might be to establish a policy that requires the community leadership team to notify all registered voters in the community with a hand-delivered sample ballot to include a list of all candidates and initiatives 1 week prior to the election beginning with the next election.
