Public Health Management Discussion

Community health assessment processes have two types of data (primary and secondary research data). It is important to use valid secondary resources (peer reviewed) to make estimates. Peer reviewed secondary sources are the best secondary research sources because they have been assessed and authenticated by reputable authors, researchers, and scholars. Secondary resources include books and government publications. Some of the websites from which a scholar can access secondary resources include CINAHL (a nursing journal database), JSTOR (a secondary research database with publications from different fields), and Google Scholar (a peer reviewed journal database).Public Health Management Discussion
