Health Program Management |
addresses health issues of populations and consists of four steps -assessing -planning -implementing -evaluating (in partnership with client) |
|
Health Program - Definition |
consists of a variety of planned activities to address the assessed health concerns of client over time
builds on client strenghts in order to meet goals & objectives |
|
Health Program Planning Process Definition |
the organized approach to identifying & choosing interventions to meet specific goals & objectives that address client health concerns goal is to ensure that health care services are acceptable, equitable, efficient, effective
|
|
Health Program Implementation Process Definition |
Putting the health program planned activities into action |
|
Health Program Evaluation Process Definition |
the systematic process of appraising all aspects of a program to determine its impact
this process needs to start early & should be designed at the same time as the health program planning process |
|
Strategic Health Planning |
involves matching client health needs & client and provider strenghts and competencies, with available resources |
|
Operational Health Planning |
used on a smaller scale and starts with a specific objective in relation to program planning |
|
Program Logic Model (PLM) |
a communication tool that depicts the process and components of planning in diagrammatic form
clarifies logical linkages of program inputs, outputs, and outcomes related to a specific health concern or situation |
|
PRECEDE-PROCEED model |
complex but comprehensive planning model PRECEDE- set directions & objectives (phase 1-5) PROCEED- address the need for health promotion interventions and approaches used to change unhealthy behaviours |
|
PRECEDE-PROCEED model two assumptions |
1. health and health risk are caused by multiple factors 2. efforts to effect behavioural, environmental, and social change must be mulitdimensional or multisectoral and participatory (audience is involved in the model) p.292 figure 10-2 |
|
Health Program Planning Process part 1 |
Assessment of client health concern - identify target population & involve them in designing the program -the interdisciplinary planning team must verify that a health concern exists -health education may be necessary to alert the population to the health concern Determine the size and location of the population -determine boundaries |
|
Health Program Planning Process part 2 |
Identification and formulation of goals and objectives - goals: broad statements that identify the main puprose for health program - objectives: specific measurable statements that identify the steps planned to reach the overall program goal; several objectives (short term, intermediate, long term) objectives can be developed using SMART -specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time framed |
|
Health Program Planning Process part 3 |
identify activities for alternatives: -working with the client consider the possibility of solving a health concern using the various solutions identified - for each alternative, list the resources required to implement each activity Approaches: -biomedical (illness, medical interventions) -socioenviromental (lifestyle, coping skills) -behavioral (correcting behaviour-quit smoking |
|
steps for evaluating public health programs |
-focus on determining exactly what needs to be known about the health program - choose suitable strategies to answer the evaluation questions -design or revise data collection tools -collect & analyze the data -make decisions about the health program based on response to the evaluation questions |
|
Sources of Health Program Evaluation |
1. Client response: written survey, attitude scale, intervievs, observations 2. Program records: care given and results of care given 3. Community health index: mortality, morbidity, incidence, prevalence |
|
Aspects of Health Program Evaluation part 1 |
1. Relevance: the need for the program 2. Adequacy: the extend to which the program addresses the entire problem defined in the needs assessment 3. Progress: monitoring of program activities to meet the program objestives 4. Efficiency: the relationship between program outcomes and costs |
|
Aspects of Health Program Evaluation part 2 |
5. Effectiveness: the ability to meet program objectives and the results of program efforts 6. Impact: long term changes in the client population 7. Sustainability: enough resources to continue the program |
|
Effective Partnership |
- equality in decision making -a shared vision - integrity -agreement on specific goals -a plan of action to meet the goals |
|
Levels of Prevention |
Primary- plan to make public businesses smoke free to prevent second-hand smoke Secondary- develop screening programs to develop incidence & prevalence of cancer, respiratory illness before smoke-free program Tertiary- evaluate the incidence of cancer, respiratory illness after the implementation of non-smoking program
