Community Teaching Work Plan Proposal

Planning and Topic

Directions: Develop an educational series proposal for your community using one of the following four topics:

1. Bioterrorism/Disaster

2. Environmental Issues

3. Primary Prevention/Health Promotion

4. Secondary Prevention/Screenings for a Vulnerable Population

Planning Before Teaching:

Identification of Focus for Community Teaching (Topic Selection):

Sexually Transmitted Diseases and its prevention

Epidemiological Rationale for Topic (Statistics Related to Topic):

Teenagers always get involved in sexual risk behaviors that end up having bad health outcomes. According to CDC , about 40% of teenagers and early adolescent is having sexual intercourse,10% is having more than 3 sexual partners,46 % does not use condom when having sexual intercourse while 14 % of them does not use other means of preventing pregnancy.

The CDC also reports that whereas sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) affect individuals of all ages; STDs take a particularly adverse effect on young people. Youths between the ages of 15-24 contributes a little over one-quarter of the sexually active population, but they are responsible for about 20 million of new sexually transmitted infections that happens in the US every year. (Carmona-Gutierrez,Kainz,& Madeo, 2016)

.

Nursing Diagnosis:

Knowledge deficit related to the prevention of STD among teenagers evidenced by increase in the incidence of STD among the teenagers in the country

Readiness for Learning: There are various factors that indicate the readiness of the teenagers to learn which include;

· Concerns on the sexual relations with peers.

· Questions regarding the sexual aspect of their bodies.

· The teenagers asking many questions as regards sexually transmitted disease.

Learning Theory to Be Utilized: Explain how the theory will be applied.

Vygotsky’s theory of social development explains that social interaction aids in social development and socialization and social behavior of an individual leads to social consciousness and cognition (David, 2014). Vygotsky believe that the lives of most teenagers are greatly influenced by their peers’ experiences.

Based on the same belief I will use social media like Facebook and Instagram which have entrenched most of the teenagers’ culture so as to facilitate deeper understanding.

Goal: Healthy People 2020 (HP2020) objective(s) utilized as the goal for the teaching. Include the appropriate objective number and rationale for using the selected HP2020 objective (use at least one objective from one of the 24 focus areas). If an HP2020 objective does not support your teaching, explain how your teaching applies to one of the two overarching HP2020 goals.

STD-1: HP2020 objectives include: Reducing the proportion of adolescents and young adults infected with Chlamydia trachomatis infections. According to Lewis and White (2017), 7.4 percent of females between the ages of 15 and 24 that visited the family planning clinics in the past one year were positive for Chlamydia trachomatis infections in 2008. Also, 12.8% of

In 2017, a total of 1,708,569 chlamydial infections were reported to CDC in 50 states and the District of Columbia. This case count corresponds to a rate of 528.8 cases per 100,000 population ( Lewis & White,2017).

How Does This HP2020 Objective Relate to Alma Ata’s Health for All Global Initiatives

HP2020 having the reduction of STDs as one of its objectives, is in line with the main provision of the Alma Ata’s initiative which points to eradicating health disparities in the world. HP2020 recognizes the contribution of social interaction and behavior in contribution to the spread of STDs.
