Project 2 health assessment
Group Health Promotion Presentation
In today’s healthcare environment, collaboration is essential to ensure patient safety and improve outcomes. When healthcare professionals work together, they create a supportive space where diverse perspectives, values, and strengths can be harnessed to achieve shared goals. This assignment invites you to experience that collaboration firsthand—by working with your classmates to promote health literacy and risk reduction for a specific population.
“Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over and to improve their health.” Health Promotion Glossary, 1998.
Health literacy is not the same as literacy—the ability to read and comprehend information. Health literacy refers to a patient’s ability to understand, interpret, and make informed decisions about their health based on medical information.
Overview
You’ll design a narrated PowerPoint (PPT) presentation that clearly and effectively communicates health information in jargon-free language accessible to the general public (approximately a 6th-grade reading level). This approach ensures patient and family accessibility, empowering them to understand, evaluate, and act on health information. This assignment is worth 25% of your final grade.
To support your work, you’ll also explore how AI tools like Copilot can assist with research, drafting, and design. Copilot is a helpful starting point, but it should be used alongside academic and healthcare sources to ensure accuracy and depth.
