Reflecting on key health determinants and the use of research and evidence-based practice which may impact the development of population health measures and policy initiatives.
This week you will be reflecting on key health determinants and the use of research and evidence-based practice which may impact the development of population health measures and policy initiatives. The article by Cook et al. (2014) titled, Support for smoke-free multi-unit housing policies among racially and ethnically diverse, low-income seniors in South Florida, is a prime example of key stakeholders setting an agenda, conducting a survey (research study), and facilitating change. Please address the following questions based on your analysis and understanding of the article:
Who are the stakeholders?
Based on your analysis of the literature review embedded in the study, do you think the authors do a good job of framing a policy change?
Do you think this policy change has potential implications at other locations/facilities? If so, how?
What do you think are the next steps in this program of research and policy?
