Assignment -
Overview - Each year the hospital where you work, Stronger Memorial hosts a Wellness Fair for its employees. The Fair is well attended; people are encouraged to use their breaks and lunchtime to tour the booths and learn about issues of personal and professional importance. This year, you are on the Wellness Fair organizing committee and will be working with colleagues from around the hospital to develop educational materials for various booths. To get started on these materials, it is important to first have a solid understanding of medical terminology and anatomy and physiology of body systems.
Directions - One booth at the Wellness Fair is designed to educate employees at Stronger Memorial Hospital about the preventable disease in the United States and worldwide. In creating a brief slide presentation to be delivered at the booth, you should include strategies from the concepts of wellness that can help to reduce the rate of preventable disease. The format of the presentation is important; people stay at the booth for no more than 10 minutes at a time, so the material should be presented in an engaging way to hold people's attention and recorded so that anyone can staff the booth. Need to narrate slide presentation should be 8-10 minutes long and include the following:
1 - Comparison of the leading causes of preventable diseases worldwide and in the US.
2 - Overview of the seven dimensions of wellness.
3 - Ways (behaviors, strategies or habits) to reduce preventable disease.
4 - Visuals that illustrate your information.
The five leading causes of preventable deaths in the United States are:
1- Heart disease
2- Cancer
3- Chronic lower respiratory disease
4- Stroke
5- Unintentional injuries
