Reread Chapter 3: Health, Wellness & Health Disparities. Search other sources, paper and/or electronic, (i.e., textbooks, journals,

health organizations, websites) for definitions and descriptions of key health terms. How would you define the terms health, health

promotion and health disparities?

  1. Select a Health Issue.

Select a Health Issue. Some examples are listed below. A health issue may also be chosen from the Healthy People 2030 Website,

(https://health.gov/healthypeople), or another website or textbook. Email Dr. Allen if you are unsure of your selection or have a

question.

Morbidity – The number of people who have altered health or functioning because of the health issue. ALSO, the rate of disease in

the population.

Mortality – The number of people who die each year because of the health issue.

  1. Select a health promotion resource based on your topic appropriate for a patient.

Go to https://healthfinder.gov/Default.aspx or another website that provides health promotion materials for patients. Select a patient

handout or website article that promotes a healthy behavior in order to reduce the health issue or attempts to reduce the health issue.

Why is this resource appropriate for the topic? How does this resource discuss or talk about the health issue? Is this resource a

good fit for a patient?
