Mental Health and Health Systems
Health issues you selected as your focus for this class. Using Chapter 27 in Key Concepts in Public Health to guide you, respond to the following questions this week:
What kinds of health systems (organizations, institutions, resources) do you see as most closely supporting your topic?
Would these be part of the public, private, or informal sectors?
How might the health systems you have identified be different if you lived in one of the poorest countries in the world instead?
Would any supporting health systems exist in that situation?
How do economic systems impact your selected topic?
For this discussion, there is no single correct response format, so be creative as you interpret the information from Chapter 27 and relate it to your selected project topic.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
This assignment requires the inclusion of at least two additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each source.
Directions:
Construct a case report (2,500-3,000 words/approximately 10-12 pages) that includes a problem or situation consistent with a DNP area of practice.
Review the AHRQ and the IOM report (“To Err Is Human” and “Crossing the Quality Chasm”) to develop the case report.
Apply quality and/or safety concepts to describe the understanding of the problem or situation of focus.
Apply one or more quality and/or safety concepts to the recommended intervention or solution being proposed.
Develop the case report across the entire scenario from the identification of the clinical or health care problem through the proposal for an intervention, implementation, and evaluation using an appropriate research instrument.
Describe the evaluation of the selected research instrument in the case report.
Lastly, explain in full the tenets, rationale for selection (empirical evidence), and clear application using the language of quality and/or safety within the case report.
Case Report Requirements:
In addition, your case report must include the following:
- Introduction with a problem statement.
- Brief literature review.
- Description of the case/situation/conditions explained from a theoretical perspective.
- Discussion that includes a detailed explanation of the synthesized literature findings.
- Summary of the case.
- Proposed solutions to remedy gaps, inefficiencies, or other issues from a theoretical approach.
- Identification of a data collection instrument to evaluate the proposed solution along with a description of how the instrument could be evaluated.
Conclusion.
You are required to complete your assignment using real-world application. Real-world application requires the use of evidence-based data, contemporary theories, and concepts presented in the course. The culmination of your assignment must present a viable application in a current practice setting.

Frank works as a cashier for a department store
Frank works as a cashier for a department store. He operates a teller window that takes payments, cashes checks, and answers questions for customers. While riding his bicycle one weekend, Frank has an accident. After six weeks of recovery, Frank returns to work but is unable to stand. His supervisor claims that Frank is required to stand at the cashier’s window and, if he is unable to do this, will have to transfer to a lower-paying job.
