Task:
1. Select a target group and choose a significant health care challenge facing this group. Create a health promotion Infographic that outlines your approach to promoting health and wellbeing, and supports independence in your target group.
2. Read and respond thoughtfully to the health promotion Infographic and original post of one peer who has researched a different topic to you.
Task Relevance:
As a 3rd year RN student you will be participating in care planning to address the health challenges facing your patients. This task is a simple introduction to considering cultural contexts and considerations by designing a culturally appropriate community health care Infographic that promotes and maintains health, as well as promoting independence in your patients. You will also engage in discussion and reflection on alternative approaches by your peers. This will allow you to critically evaluate the way health information is delivered to the target audience.
Part 1: Health Promotion Infographic
Select one of the following target groups AND a significant health care challenge facing this group.
• Indigenous Australians
OR
• A CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) group in Australia
OR
• A CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) group in Australia
Examples of significant health challenges could include diabetes, Rheumatic heart disease, Depression, Chronic Kidney Disease etc. It is important that you choose a significant health disease that disproportionately effects your chosen target group. For instance, there are some Indigenous minority populations living in high-income countries that continue to be disproportionately affected by Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) and rheumatic heart disease (RHD).
