Assessment 01 – Health Promotion Plan
For this assessment, plan a hypothetical clinical learning experience focused on health
promotion associated with a specific community health concern or health need. Completing this
assessment will strengthen your understanding of how to plan and negotiate individual or group
participation, and this assessment will also provide the foundation for the implementation of your
health promotion educational plan in Assessment 4.
Before you complete the detailed instructions in the courseroom, first review the specific
community health concerns or health needs below and select one to be the focus of your
assessment. Each of these health concerns has broad implications not only for the individuals
directly affected but also for the community at large in terms of healthcare costs, societal well-
being, and overall quality of life.
