Vulnerable Population Assessment: This part of the assignment is to analyze a vulnerable population within a selected community to identify health risks and disparities. Variables influencing the risk and disparity experienced by members of the vulnerable group will be identified, and correlation with national directives to address population health issues will be determined. Implications for advanced nursing practice and opportunities to advocate for the health of the vulnerable population will be presented.
- Include a succinct description of the vulnerable population identified, a minimum of three variables that place the population at risk, and the identified health risk(s) or disparity that the population is at risk of experiencing. Explain how relationships between each element:
- Vulnerable population
- Variables that place the vulnerable population at risk (minimum of three)
- Health risks and disparities for which the population is at risk (minimum of one)
- Identify one national population health goal or objective that relates to the identified risk or disparity (such as Healthy People or another national initiative). Propose one strategy for advanced nursing practice to collaborate at the local, state, and national level to advocate for the health of the vulnerable population and advance the Healthy People goal or objective that is identified.
