Epidemiological Rationale for Topic (statistics related to topic):
The literature on vulnerable people clearly indicates that the special needs of these populations and the ubiquitous barriers to quality care access lead to traceable disparities in the provision of healthcare and in their health outcomes (Edelman & Mandle, 2006).
Nursing Diagnosis:
Any number of variables or combinations of variables can impact the healthcare experiences of individuals -- and can lead to disparities that place vulnerable people in categories associated with high risk for healthcare related problems (Edelman & Mandle, 2006).
Readiness for Learning: Identify the factors that would indicate the readiness to learn for the target aggregate. Include emotional and experiential readiness to learn.
As the teaching program is implemented in different contexts, community stakeholders will act to further modify and adopt the new practices they have learned. Stakeholder groups begin to co-opt the process experience and mold it to their own contexts.
Learning Theory to Be Utilized: Explain how the theory will be applied.
The focus of this teaching experience is to encourage the translation of research into practice in the area of secondary prevention screenings for vulnerable people. The learning theory is based on the work of Malcolm Knowles, which is commonly known as adult learning theory. In particular, two of Knowles tenets are pertinent: 1) Congruency between learning and practice, 2) and teaching and learning that is practical and relevant.
Goal: Healthy People 2020 (HP2020) objective(s) utilized as the goal for the teaching. Include the appropriate objective number and rationale for using the selected HP2020 objective (use at least one objective from one of the 24 focus areas). If an HP2020 objective does not support your teaching, explain how your teaching...

Health Care Roles in Communication Communication is a fundamental piece of health care education and has been shown to improve health outcomes, patient compliance, and patient satisfaction. Quality health care emphasizes knowledge and utilization of communication skills. Health care professionals often express anxiety and lack of confidence and are deficient in a creating a situations that are conducive to open and candid communication with patients (Kameg et. al., 2009).

Day treatment programs can provide services at less cost because the patient goes home at night after being treated during the day, which often is used for rehabilitating chronically ill patients (Sharfstein, Stoline, & Koran, 1995, p. 249). The mere fact of having more choice benefits some patients by giving them more say in their care. Patient-focused care involves a method for containing in-patient costs for hospitals and for improving
