The overarching goal of public health informatics is to apply computer science and information technology to promote health and minimize disease and injury at the population level. Public health informatics uses data from surveys, vital statistics, hospital and clinical statistics, private and public data sources, and government data sources for analysis in improving population health. The goal of technology in public health is to improve case reporting of potential outbreaks early and improve surveillance methods by investigating trends of diseases at a local, national, and global level.

Key concepts of public health informatics is to convert data into information and then knowledge using:

• Data collection
• Storage
• Retrieval

Key functions of knowledge management, which assist public health professionals include:

• Monitor health status.
• Diagnose and investigate health problems.
• Inform and educate the public communities.
• Develop polies and programs to support community health.
• Enforce laws and regulations.
• Link communities to needed health services.
• Assure that the health professionals are well trained and competent in their field.
• Evaluate the effectiveness and quality of health services.
• Research new insights into community health problems.

Tasks:

• Explore the Chronic Disease Indicators website. Next, select one chronic disease indicator of interest to you. Using the required readings and websites for this week, respond to the following:
  • Describe the most significant functions of knowledge management associated with the health indicator selected.
  • List and describe the various web-based data query programs that are available in your state or another state.
  • Compare and contrast the individual state, CDC, and WHO websites and state the similarities and differences between the types of public health data available with both these organizations.
  • Examine some of the challenges knowledge management presents to public health professionals using tools such as surveillance systems and other technology advancements.

Nurses are often portrayed in films and television. From Nurse Ratched in One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest, to Julia Baker in Julia, and Gaylord “Greg” Focker in Meet the Parents, nurses have been portrayed showing various traits. Some are positive, while others are less than caring. For each, the five elements of emotional intelligence, 1) self-awareness, 2) self-regulation, 3) motivation, 4) empathy, and 5) social skills, are expressed at different levels. Select a nurse archetype portrayed in films or on television and consider the following.

• What features of emotional intelligence does your selected nurse portray? What features are they lacking? Provide an example to support your rationale.
• If you were the nurse’s leader, how would use your change agent characteristics to support that individual’s growth? Provide specific examples using scenarios from the setting from which the nurse is portrayed.
• How does complexity theory or chaos theory influence the organization in which the nurse is portrayed? Provide specific examples to support your rationale.

Evidence Base in Design

When politics and medical science intersect, there can be much debate. Sometimes anecdotes or hearsay are misused as evidence to support a particular point. Despite these and other challenges, however, evidence-based approaches are increasingly used to inform health policy decision-making regarding causes of disease, intervention strategies, and issues impacting society. One example is the introduction of childhood vaccinations and the use of evidence-based arguments surrounding their safety.

Identify a recently proposed health policy and share your analysis of the evidence in support of this policy.

• Review the Congress website (https://www.congress.gov/) and identify one recent (within the past 5 years) proposed health policy.
• Review the health policy you identified and reflect on the background and development of this health policy.

Describe the health policy you selected and a brief background for the problem or issue being addressed. Explain whether you believe there is an evidence base to support the proposed policy and explain why. Be specific and provide examples.
