NR 503 WEEK 2 HEALTHY PEOPLE 2020 ASSIGNMENT

P.S. Track is family nurse practitioner. Please use Florida as example (see bellow)

Purpose

The concepts of epidemiology provide the framework for the study of infectious and chronic health issues/diseases, which provides a rich source of data for the analysis of trends in disease and health. This assignment will offer the opportunity to explore the population health effects associated with falls.  You will identify populations at risk for falls, for instance those with co-morbidities or the frail living at home, and design a population focused educational intervention for your target population.  In addition, you will look at what outcomes will be addressed to determine if your interventions are effective.  This paper should integrate HP2020 and CDC information into your paper.
