Instructions from my professor: Cultural Health Promotion Project
Cultural diversity refers to the differences among people based upon shared ideology and shared valued sets of beliefs, norms, customs, and meanings evidenced in a way of life. This diversity is expressed in many ways. Diversity in history, beliefs, practices, and opportunities not only exist among the many cultural groups, they typically exist across a wide continuum within the group. Health behaviors are influenced by culture and cultural values as well as socioeconomic status.
In this assignment, students will develop a health promotion project for a cultural group living anywhere in the United States. You are to learn as much as you can about the culture norms and patterns and how these norms and patterns influence health practices. The purpose of this assignment is to develop a deeper understanding and sensitivity regarding the role of culture in patients’ lives and in nursing through the examination of a cultural/ethnic group while addressing health promotion strategies and disease prevention. PROJECT COMPONENTS The project should address the followingAspects ofCultural Assessment:
1. Ethnic/racial identity: How does the group identify itself in terms ethnicity and racial background? What is the range of interaction outside of the cultural group? Are recreational, educational, and other social activities within the ethnic reference group, the wider community, or both?
2. History and Value Orientation: How are values derived? What is the historical experience of the group that may have impacted values?
3. Language-communication process: What is the primary spoken language? What languages are spoken in the home? And by whom? What language is preferred when speaking to outsiders? Do second and third generations in the speak the language of their grandparents?
4. Health Beliefs and Practices: What are the traditional health beliefs? How common are these beliefs and practices within this group? To what extent are folk healing practices and practitioners used?
5. Religious Belief and Spirituality: Discuss religious articles & practices. How is spirituality is defined in the culture? Remember that Religious Beliefs and Spirituality are different concepts.
6. Life cycle events: Which life cycle events are important to the culture? What are the customs associated with births, coming of age, marriage, and death?
7. Nutritional Behavior/Diet: Are there restrictions? Are there common practices?
8. Medical health care access and experience: Is access to care and equality of care an issue for this group? For example, are group members less likely to receive needed care due to system issues such as financial access or provider biases than another group? Based on theCultural Assessment Data, the student will design a Cultural Health Promotion Plan:
9. Cultural Health Promotion Plan: Identify a health risk or health problem the project will address. Describe why this is an issue for your chosen target group and how cultural plays a role in the health risk or problem.
10. Health Promotion Strategies/Methods: Based on the health risk/problem identified, describe the strategies/methods that you will implement. Focus on primary and secondary prevention strategies. Refer to Healthy People 2020 Topics and Objectives. You may access the website at: https://www.healthypeople.gov.
11. Project Evaluation Methods: State the outcomes you expect to achieve. State how you will measure/assess the effectiveness of the project.

When writing papers or doing research it’s essential to find reliable sources to obtain the information from, this will decrease the chances that the information is inaccurate. GCU library provides students with plenty of online scholarly databases to aid in this research process. Two databases I have used in the past are CINAHL Complete and PubMed. These two databases have health journals, books, continuing education modules, EBP care sheets, and so much more! What’s great about using these databases is the information is peer-reviewed and is backed up by actual research to ensure it’s accurate.
Using GCU’s library databases are a great tool to find reliable information, rather than just using Google. When using Google you truly never know what you are going to get or if the information on the website you found is accurate. It may look like a reliable website, but really anyone can make a website and put information into it. When we write papers or discussion boards, fellow classmates may use our information as a learning tool, so it’s important we are finding accurate information to share. Another advantage of using GCU’s databases are the searches are organized and you can type in keywords, peer-review options, publication years, etc. This helps pin point articles you are looking for so you don’t waste time looking through thousands of articles that does not pertain to what you are looking for.
The two GCU library databases that I feel will help me to find the best research articles to support my EBP proposal are Cochrane Library and Medline Plus. The general internet search is unreliable because anyone can post anything they want and may not produce reliable results. It is imperative to have reliable and trustworthy research articles to support the EBP project. Most library databases have scholarly/peer-reviewed articles and contain only scholarly literature. GCU library databases guarantee authority and trustworthiness. The library databases have advanced search features that can be limiting by publication type, data, language, document format, scholarly/peer-reviewed status, as well as, focus by subject which means more relevant information and less time wasted dealing with junk information. Using general internet search or Google Scholar can produce limited results and there is lack of regulation and duplicated information. It is imperative to evaluate the research articles for validity and reliability.
Peer DQ3
A Library database is an electronic (online) catalog or index that contain information about published items (California State University Los Angeles, 2018). When writing EBP proposal, it is important that the writer use the library database as it helps the writer to locate relevant information and also assess the quality of the information located. GCU Library contains many scholarly databases that one can use to find the best research article to support his/her EBP proposal. Of the many database article in GCU library, I have used the CINAHL complete (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health), Cochrane library and PubMed and found them to be very helpful because it leads the researcher/writer to the source of the information (e.g. journal, books, encyclopedias etc.); it provides citation that includes the article author, title and source of information; it also provides the journal name, volume, issue, page, an abstract of the article and full text (the entire article).
I found these two-library databases to be better than google scholar or general internet search when writing EBP proposal because the information they contain are more reliable and credible than that found on some website. Library database information are better basically because they are sourced from experts and professionals unlike the general internet search that anyone could upload. The quality of the internet resources is unmonitored and the authenticity of the information may not be known.

Google definitely provides a wealth of information, this sometimes isn’t worth spending the time sifting through the data. It doesn’t offer all the information that students are looking for and information found there may not be very reliable.
The two main databases in GCU library that I believe will help me find the best research articles to support my EBP proposal are as follows:
ProQuest Nursing & Allied Health Source – if offers a wide range of materials in nursing, allied health, alternative and complementary medicine and the likes. It has over 860 titles in full text and over 12,000 full text dissertations indicative of arduous nursing scholarships. Additionally, gives access to online reference books, training tools and evidence-based nursing material from The Joana Briggs Institute. It’s a good source for training videos and cultural reports that helps with crating a better understanding about patient care.
CINAHL Complete – is one of the strongest database for nursing. It offers research tools and access to nursing and allied journals. It is comprised of more than 1300 journal titles and covers over fifty specialties in nursing. In addition, it offers continuing education modules, research instruments and evidence-based care sheets
GCU library has many databases that allows access to thousands of full text journals and articles. And these scholarly resources are best to use in research as it provides solid and reliable information.

The two databases I have found useful for reasearch and info are the Joanna Briggs Institute EBP and the Nursing and allied Health database. These articles are found on an educational institute library whcih provides eivdence based articles and as well as peer review items. While anyone may edit a google site the ones on the school library database have reasearch and evidence to back there articles.
The Joanna Brigss Institute is anevidence-based practice database that includes more than 3,000 records across seven publication types. These types include Evidence Summaries, Evidence-Based Recommended Practices, Best Practice Information Sheets, Systematic Reviews, Consumer Information Sheets, Systematic Review Protocols, & Technical Reports.

Then, explain how you developed your educational program, event, or piece of literature and address any barriers to disease prevention and health promotion for the population.
From your own professional experiences, as well as your work in this program, you have come to recognize that the goal of community or public health nursing is to improve and maintain the health status of individuals and families; cultural, racial, and ethnic groups; and communities and populations.
Show Less
Caring for a population involves identifying the factors that place at risk a population’s health, as well as developing specific interventions to address those factors. The roles of nurses in this regard include preventing illness and injury, teaching clients, promoting wellness, surveilling disease, shaping and formulating health care policy, collaborating and partnering with communities, advocating for clients, evaluating nursing care, and promoting positive client outcomes.
In addition, the use of evidence-based strategies and models facilitates the successful implementation of nursing interventions or health programs, along with the tools and methods to evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency, and appropriateness of nursing-care processes and outcomes.
Part I
To prepare for the first part of the assessment, complete the following:
Review the literature or use health assessments to determine health care needs of a diverse population in your community.
Explore things that could influence success, such as cultural attitudes toward alternative forms of healing, religious beliefs, or other individuals.
Examine the impact of current health promotion and wellness initiatives on health outcomes and health disparities.
Review the literature to identify best practices.
Once you have identified a diverse population, develop an educational program, event, or piece of literature that promotes wellness and disease prevention. If you choose an educational program or event, be sure you outline the basic content of the program or event, as well as how you would structure it. If you choose a piece of literature, be deliberate in the points you highlight. Be sure that your choice is appropriate for the population.
For an educational program or event, prepare and submit an outline of the content and structure.
For a brochure or pamphlet, prepare and submit the brochure or pamphlet using a simple Word document or a Microsoft Publisher document, if you have that software available.
Part II
Explain how you developed your educational program, event, or piece of literature and address any barriers to disease prevention and health promotion for the population.
Complete the following:
Explain why you chose the particular educational strategy. Why is it an effective strategy for the population?
Describe cultural barriers to disease prevention and health promotion in the population. This might include things such as CAM, language, religious beliefs, and so on.
Explain how your educational strategy can help overcome some of the barriers you described.
Support your work with valid scholarly resources.

When writing papers or doing research it’s essential to find reliable sources to obtain the information from, this will decrease the chances that the information is inaccurate. GCU library provides students with plenty of online scholarly databases to aid in this research process. Two databases I have used in the past are CINAHL Complete and PubMed. These two databases have health journals, books, continuing education modules, EBP care sheets, and so much more! What’s great about using these databases is the information is peer-reviewed and is backed up by actual research to ensure it’s accurate.
Using GCU’s library databases are a great tool to find reliable information, rather than just using Google. When using Google you truly never know what you are going to get or if the information on the website you found is accurate. It may look like a reliable website, but really anyone can make a website and put information into it. When we write papers or discussion boards, fellow classmates may use our information as a learning tool, so it’s important we are finding accurate information to share. Another advantage of using GCU’s databases are the searches are organized and you can type in keywords, peer-review options, publication years, etc. This helps pin point articles you are looking for so you don’t waste time looking through thousands of articles that does not pertain to what you are looking for.

The two GCU library databases that I feel will help me to find the best research articles to support my EBP proposal are Cochrane Library and Medline Plus. The general internet search is unreliable because anyone can post anything they want and may not produce reliable results. It is imperative to have reliable and trustworthy research articles to support the EBP project. Most library databases have scholarly/peer-reviewed articles and contain only scholarly literature. GCU library databases guarantee authority and trustworthiness. The library databases have advanced search features that can be limiting by publication type, data, language, document format, scholarly/peer-reviewed status, as well as, focus by subject which means more relevant information and less time wasted dealing with junk information. Using general internet search or Google Scholar can produce limited results and there is lack of regulation and duplicated information. It is imperative to evaluate the research articles for validity and reliability.

A Library database is an electronic (online) catalog or index that contain information about published items (California State University Los Angeles, 2018). When writing EBP proposal, it is important that the writer use the library database as it helps the writer to locate relevant information and also assess the quality of the information located. GCU Library contains many scholarly databases that one can use to find the best research article to support his/her EBP proposal. Of the many database article in GCU library, I have used the CINAHL complete (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health), Cochrane library and PubMed and found them to be very helpful because it leads the researcher/writer to the source of the information (e.g. journal, books, encyclopedias etc.); it provides citation that includes the article author, title and source of information; it also provides the journal name, volume, issue, page, an abstract of the article and full text (the entire article).
I found these two-library databases to be better than google scholar or general internet search when writing EBP proposal because the information they contain are more reliable and credible than that found on some website. Library database information are better basically because they are sourced from experts and professionals unlike the general internet search that anyone could upload. The quality of the internet resources is unmonitored and the authenticity of the information may not be known.

Google definitely provides a wealth of information, this sometimes isn’t worth spending the time sifting through the data. It doesn’t offer all the information that students are looking for and information found there may not be very reliable.
The two main databases in GCU library that I believe will help me find the best research articles to support my EBP proposal are as follows:
GCU library has many databases that allows access to thousands of full text journals and articles. And these scholarly resources are best to use in research as it provides solid and reliable information.

The two databases I have found useful for reasearch and info are the Joanna Briggs Institute EBP and the Nursing and allied Health database. These articles are found on an educational institute library whcih provides eivdence based articles and as well as peer review items. While anyone may edit a google site the ones on the school library database have reasearch and evidence to back there articles.
The Joanna Brigss Institute is anevidence-based practice database that includes more than 3,000 records across seven publication types. These types include Evidence Summaries, Evidence-Based Recommended Practices, Best Practice Information Sheets, Systematic Reviews, Consumer Information Sheets, Systematic Review Protocols, & Technical Reports.
The Nursing and Allied HEalth Database provides students, instructors, researchers, and nurses around the world with its diverse mix of scholarly literature, clinical training videos, reference materials, and evidence-based resources, including dissertations and systematic reviews.
