Promoting healthy prescription filling behaviors in the elderly to prevent polypharmacy
The first step in the project is to identify a topic appropriate for a health promotion project. There are multiple areas to look for
acceptable projects, such as the Health People 2020 site, The Institute of Medicine, Centers for Disease Control (CDC),
National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), Agency for Health Care Research and Quality (AHRQ). You may also want to
look at the websites for professional nursing organizations who may also have listings of health promotion priorities.
Once you are clear on the area of interest, narrow the topic to something that is specific and measureable. For example, if you
are interested in the care of the elderly, you may want to focus on a project to lessen the fall rate for the elderly.
