STUDENT’S POST:
The health of a population rests on health policy, quality and safety, chronic care management, and public health. Nash et al. (2021) argue that the interaction between these pillars in practice and education forms the basis for attaining population health strategies and goals. Public health initiatives such as Triple Aim and Healthy People have been incorporated with these pillars to enhance population health. The Triple Aim initiative is integrated to improve population health regarding patient experience, improve the overall health of populations, and reduce the costs of health care. The Triple Aim integration enables the healthcare leaders to adopt strategies to enhance their communities’ health beyond the clinics and hospitals that comprise the healthcare system. The Healthy People initiative integration with the four pillars guides national health promotion and prevention efforts. This initiative also increases public awareness and improves understanding of health determinants to improve the population health.
The Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) is among the health care delivery model. The HMO uses Primary Care Physicians to provide all preventive and primary care to a patient (Falkson & Srinivasan, 2020). Other than emergency service, any care not coordinated via the PCP is not covered by HMO. The population is affected by socioeconomic factors such as income, education, and employment, affecting individuals’ ability to make healthy choices. The cultural factors influence our perceptions of health, beliefs about causes of illnesses, approaches to health promotion, and preferred treatment. Legal, ethical, and environmental factors are essential to public health as they impact the wellbeing and health of diverse individuals. As a DNP-prepared nurse leader, the key factors that I would address in meeting population health needs are promoting a widespread culture change, health promotion and prevention, and accountability for outcomes. These factors are critical to achieving population health locally or nationally and overcoming disparities.
