Population and Family Health II: Health Program Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation - 2024/2025
Population and Family Health II: Health Program Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation - 2024/2025
Course Description and Pre-requested:
Those entering the public health workforce face the challenges and opportunities posed by a complex array of contemporary health issues: global warming; infectious diseases such as COVID-19, Ebola, HIV, and the Zika virus; the continuing growth of opioid, vaping, and mass shooting epidemics; chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer; and behavioral health conditions. This course focuses on the principles and practices of public health program planning, implementation, and evaluation to control these public health challenges (at the individual, community, state, national, and international levels).
This course addresses creating behavioral, environmental, and policy changes at the population level. We hope that the course helps practitioners, researchers, and policymakers alike address the subtle complexities inherent in effective planning, implementation, and evaluation to improve community and population health.
We elaborate on the PRECEDE-PROCEED
model since it has been effectively applied throughout the world to address a
broad range of health issues: risk factors like tobacco and lack of exercise;
social determinants of health such as lack of access to transportation and safe
housing; major disease challenges like heart disease and guinea worm disease;
and holistic health outcomes as well. Therefore, it will broaden the
perspective from personal and proximal “risk factors” to “distal social
determinants of health”.
The course requirement is Population and Family Health I (KUI: 673).
Expected Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Describe the model for population health planning, implementation, and evaluation,
- Examine participation and community engagement in planning,
- Describe social assessment regarding quality of life in population health, behavioral and environmental factors, and predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors,
- Appraise health program and policy development on intervention, implementation, and evaluation strategies,
- Demonstrate applications of PRECEDE-PROCEED in specific settings: community, occupational, school, health care, and communication technology.
Each student
also should develop proficiency in scientific report writing and critique on program
planning, implementation, and evaluation. An example is the ability to
criticize and assess research published in population and reproductive health
journals for program planning and evaluation.
The
instructor will assign the exercises at the end of each session for group
discussion during the tutorial. Exercises reinforce quantitative and
qualitative skills and specific content areas.
They may be completed as written assignments or in-class discussions. Depending on the topic of the course, the instructor may elect to assign all questions or a subset of the questions.
