Chronic kidney disease
Prepare a detailed innovative health promotion project plan for your chosen disease/determinant for an Australian community (Indigenous or non-Indigenous).
This should be in the form of one of the following:
Education on disease awareness and/or prevention
Disease/symptom management
Your health promotion should include:
A specific target group and community (for example Teenagers in Darwin high schools or men aged 50 years or above in Bendigo, students at CDU)
A brief outline of why this public health promotion is beneficial for the Australian population- how you anticipate it will improve health outcomes for the chosen community
What your goals and aims for your health promotion are (review the SMART mnemonic on page 205 of Fleming & Parker)
You should identify which of the Public Health promotion management perspectives this falls into (primary, secondary or tertiary- see page 309 Fleming & Parker)
Outline the additional stakeholders, and community consultation which should take place- who this will include
A specific original health message/ logo (for example: If you can play you can play)
An outline of how will you promote the health promotion to the target group (newspaper, sports event, school visit, radio- what will work for your target audience)
An outline of how you plan to evaluate the success of your health promotion
**This is not medical surgical nursing- it is health promotion aimed at the community level- so please do not focus on pathophysiology.
You can follow the outline above or refer to a public health promotion/project template to base your assignment on such as the Western Australian Centre for Health Promotion Research at Curtain University Template: Checklist for Planning and Evaluating Health Promotion Projects (http://www.kemh.health.wa.gov.au/services/amssu/docs/Planning_Evaluating_HP_Checklist.pdf)
Or follow the outlines provided in the set text Fleming & Parker 2012: Chapter 13 Health Promotion

Why is this relevant?
As you progress through your nursing career you will identify areas where more education or health promotion is required to change behaviours. This assignment provides you with knowledge of the skills and processes used in preparing health education or health promotion resources. Importantly it encourages you to identify that any form of health education or promotion should be designed to meet the needs of the target group and involve some form of community consultation to ascertain the need and acceptance of the health promotion.
