1. Develop an intervention plan in collaboration with other professionals that takes into account determinants of health, available resources, and activities that contribute to health and the prevention of illness or injury An intervention plan is a set of actions that aim to improve the health of a specific population or group. It is usually developed in collaboration with other professionals, such as health care providers, social workers, educators, and community leaders. The intervention plan should take into account the determinants of health, which are the factors that influence the health status of individuals and communities. These include biological, environmental, social, economic, and behavioral factors. The intervention plan should also consider the available resources, such as funding, personnel, equipment, and facilities, that can support the implementation and evaluation of the plan. Finally, the intervention plan should include activities that contribute to health and the prevention of illness or injury, such as health promotion, education, screening, counseling, treatment, and follow-up. The activities should be based on evidence and best practices, and tailored to the needs and preferences of the target population or group. 2. What health issue, problem, or disparity in health outcomes is of concern to you as a scholar practitioner in your community? What gaps in knowledge and care do you see as possible causes for the health issue? What does the health data tell you about the health issue? What does the literature tell you about the health issue? How can you learn about the health issue and about possible solutions from the viewpoint of families, community as a whole, and health professionals in your community? What evidence is there to support your proposal? What is one avenue you could advocate for improved health outcomes and know when a change has taken place? One health issue that concerns me as a scholar practitioner in my community is the high prevalence of diabetes and its complications. Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the body's ability to regulate blood sugar levels, and can lead to serious complications such as heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, and amputation. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2018, 34.2 million Americans had diabetes, and 88 million had prediabetes. Diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in the United States in 2017. Some of the possible causes for this health issue are the lack of access to affordable and quality health care, the lack of awareness and education about diabetes prevention and management, the social and environmental factors that influence dietary and physical activity behaviors, and the genetic and biological factors that increase the risk of developing diabetes. To address these gaps in knowledge and care, I would use a mixed-methods approach to collect and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data from multiple sources. For example, I would use secondary data from the CDC, the American Diabetes Association, and other relevant organizations to understand the epidemiology and trends of diabetes in my community. I would also conduct surveys and interviews with families, community members, and health professionals to understand their perspectives, experiences, challenges, and needs related to diabetes. The literature review would help me to identify the best practices and evidence-based interventions for diabetes prevention and management in similar settings and populations. I would also review the theoretical frameworks and models that explain the determinants and outcomes of diabetes, such as the
