Population Cultural Considerations and Genetic Predispositions
1. Identify any genetic predisposition your chosen population has to a particular disease
– My chosen population are elderly people who turn to alcoholism as a means for coping due to job loss, a sense of loss in the community or
their family and hopelessness. I do not view this particular population as having a genetic predisposition
2. Develop primary practice interventions that reflect the cultural considerations of the population.
– Cultural considerations would be those of an italian, catholic descent.
3. Lastly, you will develop culturally appropriate, measureable interventions to help your population members maintain an optimal state of
health, avoiding the problem that you identified them being at risk for developing.
From the professor – Please discuss the following questions in your topic:
1) Provide a few examples of community resources that should be put in place to assist your population in resolving their health care needs.
2)What gaps in service do you see that affect your population?
3)Are there any cultural considerations that might inform your approach to caring for this population?
4) Does your population have a genetic predisposition to the health care problem you have identified? (no, mine does not)
5) Identify at least one evidence-based, culturally competent behavior change that would promote health for your selected population and for the
specific health care problem you are addressing?

Epidemiology Paper Requirements
Describe the chosen communicable disease, including causes, symptoms, mode of transmission, complications, treatment, and the
demographic of interest (mortality, morbidity, incidence, and prevalence). Is this a reportable disease? If so, provide details about reporting time,
whom to report to, etc.
Describe the social determinants of health and explain how those factors contribute to the development of this disease.
Discuss the epidemiologic triangle as it relates to the communicable disease you have selected. Include the host factors, agent factors
(presence or absence), and environmental factors. Are there any special considerations or notifications for the community, schools, or general
population?
Explain the role of the community health nurse (case finding, reporting, data collection, data analysis, and follow-up) and why demographic data
are necessary to the health of the community.
Identify at least one national agency or organization that addresses the communicable disease chosen and describe how the organizations
contribute to resolving or reducing the impact of disease.
Discuss a global implication of the disease. How is this addressed in other countries or cultures? Is this disease endemic to a particular area?
Provide an example.
A minimum of three peer-reviewed or professional references is required
