Chapter 5 - Reflection by Jennifer Bohland-Anhalt https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv en-us 2023-02-07 01:08:38 UTC 2023-02-09 00:53:45 UTC hello@padlet.com A Community Needs Assessment takes an in depth look at a specific purpose for assessment for either the whole community or a small population to asses what nutrition services are available for that said group. It implements the use of data from the federal, state, and local government as well. ~JJ https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473421153 2023-02-08 13:40:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473421153 Hospitals are great resources for a needs assessment. If you have a specific population, these records will show what percent of the population has needed emergency care. ~JJ https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473426607 2023-02-08 13:44:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473426607 During the research, finding websites that claim to be factual could be an issue. There are many websites that stretch the truth to bring people into the site, so using scholarly sites or trusted websites is a must. ~JJ https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473428871 2023-02-08 13:46:03 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473428871 So far, I am having issues with finding information on my population outside of the hospital. I was given some great leads for information by my preceptor, so I am hopeful to overcome this difficulty. ~JJ https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473430637 2023-02-08 13:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473430637 How should the layout be for the final assessment? I understand we must use AMA format, but an example of a finished needs assessment would help with how we should set ours up. ~JJ https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473432249 2023-02-08 13:48:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2473432249 A Community Needs Assessment takes a detailed view into determining what a community or program's needs include, and if they are being met. It uses a nutrition assessment that has basic questions to find information needed about the program or community. It also collects and analyzes data to gather the information necessary.-kaitlyn https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474218395 2023-02-08 23:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474218395 Megan https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474220636 Taking a look at the factors within the social, physical, cultural, and national environment that affects the health of the community residents]]> 2023-02-08 23:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474220636 I agree with JJ's comment about how the layout should be for the final assessment, If an example could be shows it would be of great help!-kaitlyn https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474221975 2023-02-08 23:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474221975 An assessment completed on the community to determine health needs.

Some of the data you might need to collect from nursing homes could be number of residents, average length of stays, or the types of operations involved.-kaitlyn https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474224345 2023-02-08 23:38:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474224345 https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474224499 I’m just having a difficult time taking in all of the information.

I'm having trouble thinking of "issues". There is a lot of information and I just read the chapter today, so the info is too new https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474226208 Ash]]> 2023-02-08 23:41:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474226208 One type of data that I should work on gathering is qualitative data, I am thinking of observing students when I can. I will mention to my preceptor and find a time where I can be observant.-kaitlyn https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474248360 2023-02-09 00:14:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474248360 An issue I could have when gathering data could be finding students who want to talk about the food and nutrition experience at school. During class Mrs. Bohland-Anhalt suggested I could ask questions to students about these topics, I will think of other options and discuss with my preceptor!-kaitlyn https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474251108 2023-02-09 00:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474251108 https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474282195 It may be difficult to get patients to commit the time and effort to conduct a survey or focus group. -Megan]]> 2023-02-09 00:53:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bohlanjj/6kugju9ij1u7dlfv/wish/2474282195
