Thank you for submitting your first submission for Deliverable 6 for the NUR 4681 course. If you would like to attempt for mastery, (submit changes in red) you have up to 3 submissions. All deliverables must be passed to pass the course. Please review the feedback and recommendations provided below. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Professor Tedesco. Thank you for submitting this Deliverable.
This was a good start! See your etext as this is covered in depth. I look forward to your next submission. There was a clearly stated description of the roles and responsibilities of an epidemiologist on a global scale. This is more than a basic description, but is in need of further elaboration to achieve mastery in this section. Score 3.
There was an accurate listing of concepts here. To add: Elaborate on these concepts. Explain in more detail about what this encompasses. What other things are done? Three priority epidemiological interventions for global populations are thoroughly described on the poster. Your work is appreciated yet more detail is needed to convey a strong ability to address this competency. Score 2.
There was a good start here. Review the content from the module on communicable and noncommunicable diseases to complete this area. There were Three concepts of demography that impact global health are thoroughly described on the poster. Your work is appreciated yet more detail is needed to convey a strong ability to address this competency. Score 2. Death rates, populations of people, and density distribution are all examples—good work. Please refer to the course module and/or Prof. Tedesco’s recorded sessions for a thorough discussion of these concepts. Thank you for your efforts. You are certainly welcomed to re-submit your work with the updates and recommendations made above.
Paper For Above instruction
The submitted work for Deliverable 6 demonstrates a foundational understanding of epidemiology and global health concepts, yet it requires further elaboration and depth to achieve mastery. A comprehensive understanding of the roles and responsibilities of epidemiologists on a global scale is crucial; expanding this area involves detailing specific activities such as disease surveillance, outbreak investigation, policy development, and international collaboration (Glik had et al., 2018). More detailed descriptions of these responsibilities will showcase a higher level of expertise and understanding.
Additionally, the assignment includes an accurate listing of key concepts within epidemiology. To elevate this, it is necessary to elaborate on these concepts—explaining what they encompass, their significance, and how they are operationalized in global health settings. For instance, understanding how concepts like incidence, prevalence, and risk factors are measured and applied can deepen the overall analysis (Thacker & Berkelman, 2018). Furthermore, discussing complementary activities such as data collection, statistical analysis, and communication strategies will demonstrate a broader grasp of epidemiological work.
Moreover, the assignment describes three priority epidemiological interventions for global populations. To improve, these descriptions should include detailed explanations of each intervention's purpose, methodology, and expected outcomes. For instance, interventions such as vaccination campaigns, sanitation improvements, and health education programs are vital, but articulating their implementation strategies and epidemiological impact will strengthen the work (Last, 2017). Incorporating real-world examples or case studies can also enhance understanding and application of these interventions.
Furthermore, the paper addresses three concepts of demography that impact global health, such as death rates, population sizes, and population density/distribution. To deepen this discussion, it is recommended to explore how these demographic factors influence disease transmission, resource allocation, and health disparities (United Nations, 2019). For example, high population density in urban areas often correlates with increased disease transmission, necessitating targeted public health measures. Explaining these relationships comprehensively will demonstrate mastery of demographic influences on global health.
It is essential to refer to the course module, recorded sessions, and current literature to incorporate detailed insights, real-world applications, and evidence-based practices. Revisions should aim to elaborate on concepts, justify chosen interventions, and connect demographic factors with health outcomes.
