How would the SOPHE code of ethics apply to this scenario? You are the health education specialist for a large city hospital. Your supervisor has asked you to develop a program on “safer sex” practices for the gay and lesbian population. The program is to be made available to lesbian and gay groups in the community. Because of your strong religious convictions, your personal values and beliefs are opposed to the gay/lesbian lifestyle and the “safer sex” approach. In addition, you feel uncomfortable dealing with homosexuals in general and especially with anyone who is HIV-positive. How will you handle this situation?

Goat milk contains a high nutrient profile compared to cow milk. The whey protein of goat milk is extensively studied which, therefore, is being considered incorporated into fruit beverages. Whey-fruit flavored beverages are subjective to reduce the risks associated with cardiovascular diseases. A research group recently developed a whey-orange flavored juice using microfiltration technology. Imagine that you are one of the researchers of this study group and are asked to develop a sensory analysis test for this beverage.

(a)Explain the term ‘sensory evaluation’ as it applies to food (5 marks).

And make a list of the sensory attributes that you are planning to evaluate. (5 marks).

(b)Make a seven-point scale sensory table for each sensory attribute you selected

 

(c) Briefly describe two main methods that can be used for conducting a sensory evaluation of this beverage product

1. Multi-level Theoretical Application Discussion about BREAST CANCER (please cited properly)

-This section should provide an in-depth review of public health interventions and programs that have incorporated health behavior theories to address your group’s specific selected health behavior/issue. Programs/interventions that are reviewed can focus on prevention, screening, or management of your group’s assigned health behavior/issue.-

2. In particular, please review the scientific and evidence-based literature and summarize programs/interventions that have utilized each of the following to address your selected health behavior/issue:

a) Individual behavior theory

b) Interpersonal behavior theory

Review THREE programs/interventions for each of the above ecological levels.

For each program/intervention reviewed, please report on the following,  presenting items A-F as separate sub-headings:

A)  What was the population of focus? (i.e. Who was the program developed for? Who participated?)

B)  What was the setting/context? (i.e. Where did the intervention/program take place?)

C)  What theory or theories did the program/intervention utilize? (i.e. How did it inform the program activities?)

D)  How was the theory integrated/applied to the program/intervention? (i.e. How was the theory operationalized?)

E)  What methods were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the theory-based program/intervention? (Discuss specific theoretical constructs that were evaluated, and what methods were used to evaluate them)

F) What were the outcomes?    (Discuss the extent to which the program/intervention was effective for producing outcomes among participants)

1. Another behavior that professionals aim to improve is the nutritional habits of young children. Many studies have evaluated the effectiveness of observational behavior on young children in regard to nutrition habits, such as fruit and vegetable consumption and nutritional literacy.

One study published in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior evaluated the effectiveness of screen-based peer modeling on children’s vegetable consumption. This study enrolled 42 children, aged 3-5 years old, who were asked to watch either a video of a peer eating a vegetable, a video that was non-food related, or no video at all. Researchers then evaluated the child’s vegetable consumption rate of all of the groups. It was found that children who watched the video with vegetables were more likely to eat more grams of vegetables that same day (Stainano et al., 2016). This study shows how public health professionals can use peer observational learning to help promote healthy eating habits in young children.

Do you agree or not and why?

2.As I previously mentioned, media can play a large role in observational learning, negative and positive! A TikTok trend led millions of people to Chole Ting’s fitness channel on Youtube. During quarantine, gyms were closed and people were looking for at-home workouts when Chole Ting started trending on the popular app. People were going crazy about it and encouraging others to try it for themselves. Staying active, especially when gyms are closed, has many benefits and this trend helped public health professionals promote a healthy lifestyle!

Do you agree or not and why?

Develop a record retention policy for the Wildcat facility which uses an electronic health record.

• Decide the content of health record forms at the hospital(use a teaching hospital)
• Master patient index for the hospital you chose. How will this be retained?
• Active records vs inactive records? How will active records be retained?
• Review any federal and state laws that may be applicable to your Wildcat Hospital (i.e. retention laws in the state may vary from the federal statute of limitations, age of majority)

When writing this policy consider the following:

• records of minors, and mentally incompetent adults as compared to adult health records
• Professional association retention guidelines; AHIMA retention standards of the legal health record and recommendation standards (Figure 9.6 in text)
• State & Federal retention guidelines (i.e. Utah retention guidelines state 7 years for adults, AHIMA advises 10 years)
• Destruction methods (figure 9.7) of health records, what must the hospital contain upon the destruction of health records
