Community Needs and Health Screening Initiative

Directions

For this Assignment you will pick one recommended screening from AHRQ section 2; an A or B Grade:

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality [AHRQ]. (2014). Guide to clinical preventive services. Retrieved from https://www.ahrq.gov/professionals/clinicians-providers/guidelines-recommendations/guide/index.html

An initiative is a project, an event, so something in the community is ideal. Workplace location for employees is fine too. Please include the following suggested level one headings so content is clear and easily identified.

Conceptual Model

Choose a conceptual model that you think might work for your initiative and explain the model here. Appendix 2 in the document at the link below will help you understand community approaches. Appendix 3 in this same document will help you with conceptual model selection. Note: This project is about screening, not physical activity evaluation. Use the appendix as a resource for models:

Physical Activity Evaluation Handbook. (2002). Retrieved from https://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/physical/handbook/pdf/handbook.pdf

You may choose to independently research your model to help you explain its application to your initiative. If you have found another model you will like to use, not listed, contact your instructor.

Screening Purpose

Discuss why it is important to screen for this condition. This is where you address your community assessment and the reason for this need in your community/ population choice. Support your stance with statistics and information, ideally related to the location and population.

Population

Clearly address the demographics that are being screened; where they live, state, county, ages, races included etc.

Screening Activity

This section is what you are doing at the screening and should completely align with the screening guideline above for the condition. Also all health promotion screenings include some brief prevention education component.

Outcome Goals

Bullet a few specific goals here. What do you hope to accomplish with your screening?

Location

Briefly explain where you are doing this. It should be very specific. Senior Citizen Center in Monroe Co on Saturday. Local church- name, malls, fair etc. Think about what facility type, area you will need. Add comments on why this location meets the needs of your target population and screening choice.

Cost

This is the cost for you to develop and conduct the initiative. It is best displayed as a brief Word table showing what it costs you do develop and conduct the screening; paper, equipment, rental s etc. Volunteers are fine, but everything is not free. Students must demonstrate they can develop a cost estimate for screenings that is realistic and takes into account financials. If there is a cost for the attendees that should go here as well.

Summary

Provide a summary of your screening, general benefit to the community and why it is important.

This should be a 3–4 page paper, excluding title page, and references. A person should be able to read your paper and understand fully what you are screening, where, when, the costs and how it is supported in the guideline. Ideally a person would be able to duplicate your screening initiative, based on the clarity you present. This paper should adhere to appropriate 6^th edition APA format. A minimum of 3-4 sources should be used. Times New Roman, font 12, 4 references not older than 5 years (2012-2017).

Assignment Instructions

Building
on the information that you prepared from your Midterm Assignment,
prepare a new research paper that addresses the below information in 5-7
full pages of content (not counting title or reference pages):

For the terrorist organization likely to conduct an attack within the United States that you selected, determine:

– What domestic data collection programs would be best utilized on the organization you selected? (Intelligence Collection disciplines discussed in week 5) Do not focus on overseas intelligence collection programs; this is an HLSS course and we are focused only on the homeland.

– Which members of the IC would be the best collectors of intelligence on this particular organization? (we discussed the agencies of the intelligence community in week 2)
You may address agencies that collect overseas and within the homeland
as the terrorism nexus overlaps both domains. You may also consider some
of the field agencies of DHS (since DHS I&A is just an office and
does not collect) as some of the operating components do collect
like ICE, CBP, USCG, and the Secret Service (who does focus on terrorism
financing). Again, this is a Homeland Security course, so focus on the
agencies that can support the homeland (like the FBI), not primarily
overseas intelligence collection of foreign targets.

– What intelligence analysis strategies would be the most effective and why? (choose only from the strategies discussed in the week 6 lesson).
Remember that critical thinking is not a strategy — be specific about
what you think will help analyze what we collect on a clandestine
terrorist group attempting to attack the U.S. homeland.

Note:
As a paper for this HLSS course, these questions are to be answered as
it relates to collecting and analyzing intelligence on the terrorist
group plans and activities within the U.S. as they prepare to attack so
that law enforcement and security officials here in the homeland can
detect, identify, and warn on this potential or hypothetical attack. You
do not need to address how to stop this attack, that will be the
subject of your recommendations in your final paper. Only address your
hypothetical attack using a paragraph or two (unless you were specifically told that you did not address the attack in sufficient detail in your midterm).

This
progress paper will set the stage for your final paper where you will
then discuss how intelligence, law enforcement and homeland security
officials from all three levels of government can prevent or disrupt
this attack (as well as your recommendations to them in your final
paper). Therefore, do not address measures to stop or interdict the terrorists in your progress paper, only
focus here in this paper on intelligence collection disciplines, the
most appropriate IC agencies to play a role, and the most effective
analytical techniques to employ in this scenario.

I would also remind you that the
CIA does not collect anything domestically, they are a foreign
intelligence agency. See the readings from week 5 as well as this link
to Executive Order 12333 https://www.cia.gov/about-cia/eo12333.html.
The NSA is very different as they can and do collect both foreign and
domestic communications when authorized by a court (like FISA) or under
certain conditions by the Attorney General (to support the FBI). See https://www.nsa.gov/about/faqs/sigint-faqs.shtml

The
Progress Assignment is due on Sunday of Week 6. The analysis must be
double spaced and follow APA guidelines (in -text parenthetical citation
format, not endnotes or footnotes) and be free of typographical,
spelling and grammatical errors (see example paper). 5 is the minimum
number of pages of content not counting title page and reference
page. Name the assignment “LastnameHLSS320Progresspaper.doc”. Compliance
with the above directions, quality of your analysis, and the SSGS
Assignment Rubric for 300-400 Level Classes will be used to evaluate
this assignment. Assignment Rubric

Clarification
on assignments: The first paper (the midterm, your Red Cell paper) was
about the terrorist group you selected and was basically from the
terrorist perspective, and it should have addressed attack scenarios of
how your group could attack the U.S. Homeland. The second paper (the
progress assignment) is from the friendly perspective and is on how the
U.S. can do intelligence collection and analysis on the terrorist group:

For the final
assignment, it will give you an opportunity to describe how to stop the
attack by making your own recommendations based on what you learned.

Note:
You must use APA (in-text parenthetical) format [but not endnotes or
footnotes] in HLSS owned courses. The APUS library has many useful
documents, videos and guides on how to research, write and cite for
college level papers. See http://www.apus.edu/Online-Library/resources-services/resources/student-academic-resource-center.html. I
have also attached an example papers to the assignment instructions for
your midterm that you should use as a template for your papers in this
course.

Make
sure you read the instructions carefully and that you focus your paper
on answering the assigned question. This assignment is a research paper, not an opinion paper, so you need to cite scholarly sources to support your thesis. Make sure you use APA style in-text parenthetical citations at
the end of every sentence where you are quoting or paraphrasing
another’s ideas (or any information) that is not your own thoughts and
words, like this (Bergen, 2015, para 14). I highly recommend you use the
APUS writing guide based on the APA style which can be found in the
university library or at this link: APUS Style Guide for APA.
You are welcome to use supplementary sources to compliment the assigned
readings based upon your research, but make sure you use scholarly and
credible sources. See the APUS Library Homeland Security Program Guide for good sources, as well as the APUS Research Primer and the APUS Library Research FAQs.

Requirements:

– 5-7 Full pages of text (not counting title page or references). 5 FULL pages of content is the minimum acceptable length

– Written according to the APA style and format;

– Use Times New Roman 12 point font;

– 1 inch margins on all sides with no paragraph indentation other than the first line by .5 inches

– Double
space all text (no extra lines or spaces after a paragraph or section
headings and no added font sizes or lines either)

A
respectable number of credible resources used, cited in the paper as
in-text citations, and included on the reference page. A good rule of
thumb is at least 2 scholarly sources per page of content (at least 10
scholarly references for this 5 page paper). Use those sources provided
to you throughout the course (listed in the announcements), as well as
other material obtained from conducting your own research. Freely
utilize appropriate and reputable academic sources, summarize in your
own words and cite accordingly.

Be mindful of excessive direct quotes as the paper should not contain just a string of various quotations. Make sure you comply with all academic integrity standards expected by APUS and as slide 14 of the APUS Academic Integrity presentation
posted in course syllabus (and the week 1 introduction forum) states
“Quotes cannot make up more than 10% of the text of your assignment.” So paraphrase where you can and provide your own analysis and synthesis of your research. See
the syllabus tab within this course for more important information on
academic integrity and the repercussions of plagiarism.

Substance abuse has always been a problem at colleges and universities. However, some are alarmed by the recent misuse of prescription medication and by the legalization of marijuana in some states. Many businesses are concerned that substance abuse will impact them if graduates (future employees) have developed a pattern of substance abuse while still in college. An article reported that 46% of U.S. college students have been involved in some type of substance abuse.

Substance abuse has been a concern of the president of Rocky University for several years. Some faculty members in the university believe that substance abuse is more widespread at Rocky than at other universities, while other faculty members think that substance abuse is not a major problem in the college. To resolve some of these issues, the president of the university commissioned a study to assess the current substance abuse behavior of students at Rocky. As part of this study, an anonymous exit survey was administered to a sample of 90 students from this year’s graduating class. Responses to the following questions were used to obtain data regarding three types of substance abuse.

1. During your time at Rocky, did you ever participate in binge drinking?

   ____ Yes
   ____ No

1. During your time at Rocky, did you ever abuse prescription medication?

   ____ Yes
   ____ No

1. During your time at Rocky, did you ever use any type of illegal or illicit drug (not included in questions 1 or 2)?

   ____ Yes
   ____ No

Any student who answered yes to one or more of these questions was considered to have been involved in some type of substance abuse. The complete data set is in the file named Abuse, linked at the bottom of the page.

Managerial Report
Prepare a report (see below) for the president of the university that summarizes your assessment of the nature of substance abuse by students at Rocky University. Be sure to include the following seven (7) items in your report.

1. To summarize the data, compute the proportion of all students, the proportion of all male students, and the proportion of all female students who
   1. Participated in binge drinking.
   2. Abused prescription medication.
   3. Used illegal or illicit drugs.
      Then comment on your findings.
2. Develop 90% confidence intervals for the proportion of all students, the proportion of all male students, and the proportion of all female students who were involved in some type of substance abuse.
3. Develop 90% confidence intervals for the proportion of all students, the proportion of all male students, and the proportion of all female students who participated in binge drinking.
4. Develop 90% confidence intervals for the proportion of all students, the proportion of all male students, and the proportion of all female students who abused prescription medication.
5. Develop 90% confidence intervals for the proportion of all students, the proportion of all male students, and the proportion of all female students who used illegal or illicit drugs.
6. Conduct a hypothesis test (using either the p-value approach or the critical value approach) to determine if the proportion of all students at Rocky University who were not involved in some type of substance abuse is less than that of all U.S. students elsewhere. Use α = 0.10.
   Do not forget to include the correctly worded hypotheses.
7. What advice would you give to the president of the university based upon your analysis of the data? What is the magnitude of the issue? What would you recommend for both students and faculty? What is the potential impact on relationships with the business community and what would you recommend? How can this study be improved?

Be sure that your report contains the following:

• A title page, document, and citations in APA style.
• An introduction that summarizes the problem.
• The body of the paper should answer the questions posed in the problem by communicating the results of your analysis. Include results of calculations, as well as charts and graphs, where appropriate.
• A conclusion paragraph that addresses your findings and what you have determined from the data and your analysis.
• In-text citations from a minimum of three sources in addition to your textbook.
• A reference page.

Be sure to submit your Excel file as well. (Required)

a number of aspects of policing and the way each of them can potentially contribute to misconduct by officers. These ranged from the degree to which officers work in an unsupervised way and have great discretion in doing their job, to individual factors like the “rotten apple” theory, to organizational and societal factors and the influence of the police subculture. In your view, which of these seems to be the best explanation for why officers engage in misconduct? Is it possible to narrow it down to just one factor? What are some of the measures that might be effective in dealing with this problem?

Guidance notes

• Use standard document formats and structures (Introduction, Body and Conclusion).
• Word processes the documents.
• Use 12 point Arial or Times New Roman script.
• apply citations in each paragraph and Provide a list of references and use the Harvard referencing system.
• All Informations should be taken from academic journals and articles and books.
