Identify at least two program evaluation methods (found in Chapter 4 of the course textbook) that you would recommend to CHS leadership to evaluate the effectiveness of the tobacco education informatics solution.

Cherry Health System Scenario [WLOs: 2, 4] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3]
Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum,
· Read Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 of Health Informatics: An Interprofessional Approach and analyze the Hierarchy of Informatics Diagram in Chapter 35 of your text (Figure 35.6).
· Read the article What Informatics Is and Isn’t (Links to an external site.).
You will be responding to the following discussion question based on your Ashford University major of study (e.g., Health Information Management, Nursing, Health Administration, Health and Human Services, or Public Health).
Read the following scenario:
· Cherry Health System (CHS) consists of a general hospital, a women’s hospital, 20 doctor practices comprised of doctors who work for CHS, and an ambulatory surgery center. The leadership of this facility has decided they would like to take the existing paper-based consumer education pamphlets on tobacco education and deploy them to the ambulatory population of CHS who visit the doctor offices and surgery center. They would like to use the informatics tools, principles, and content available through gov (Links to an external site.) as a basis for this education. In order to identify patients who can benefit from this informatics solution, they asked administrators in the physician offices and the surgery center to print a report of patients who currently use tobacco from the CHS electronic health record (EHR). As a professional in your field of study, you have been asked to provide input into the design of this informatics solution.
Based on the above scenario:
· Provide a rationale as to where in the Hierarchy of Informatics (Chapter 35, page Figure 35.6, page 608) the CHS tobacco informatics solution would be categorized.
· Based on your major of study and the patient education informatics tools available from Health finder.gov (Links to an external site.), discuss three informatics functions that your design for the tobacco education solution would include.
· Identify at least two program evaluation methods (found in Chapter 4 of the course textbook) that you would recommend to CHS leadership to evaluate the effectiveness of the tobacco education informatics solution.
Initial Post: Your initial post should be a minimum of 350 words. Utilize a minimum of three unique credible, or scholarly sources (excluding the textbook or other course provided resources) cited in APA format, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center’s Citing Within Your Paper (Links to an external site.) resource.

Discuss barriers that prevent homeless people with mental illness from receiving care measures to promote access.

CHAPTER 38, Homeless Clients

In completing the case study, students will be addressing the following learning objectives:

Discuss factors that contribute to homelessness in people with mental illness.

Discuss barriers that prevent homeless people with mental illness from receiving care measures to promote access.

1. Kevin, a 39-year-old unemployed homeless male who has paranoid schizophrenia, was brought to the psychiatric hospital by the police. Citizens called the police because Kevin was in the street directing pedestrians and traffic in opposition to the traffic lights and verbally abusing everyone who did not follow his directions. Kevin is known to the police since he is often homeless, and states that his family does not want him. Kevin also has a history of poly substance abuse with alcohol, heroin, and crack cocaine, and he has been jailed for public intoxication several times. The nursing assessment reveals that Kevin has not been taking his prescribed psychotropic medications for 3 weeks. Kevin states that he does not have any money, and he does not remember where to go for mental health care (Learning Objectives: 2)

a. What are the major factors that contribute to Kevin’s frequent homelessness?

b. What barriers does Kevin face in the receiving treatment? How can these barriers be addressed?

Social determinants of health are economic and social conditions that influence the health of people and communities. Determinant factors that contributes to a person current state of health include biological, socioeconomic, psychological, behavioral, and social in nature. This also includes genetic, health behaviors, social environment, physical environment, and health services Determinants affect a individuals health, functioning, and quality of life (CDC, 2017).

Social determinants of health are conditions in the environment in which people are born, live, lean, work, play, and worship. These things have a direct impact of individuals health. For example one can increase their risk for heart disease by making poor diet choices as well as decrease activity level (CDC, 2017). The chain of communicable diseases involves the chain of infection. Infection results from the interaction of an agent, host, and environment. Transmission occurs when agent leaves its reservoir through port of exit by a mode of transmission and enters through a portal of entry. Their are many things that can break this chain. Hand washing, vaccinations, and sanitary conditions can be simple ways to break this chain. Attaining knowledge of the entry, exit, and modes of transmission provides for control measures (CDC, 2017).

Social determinants impacts individuals health. Communicable diseases can also affect many individuals. It is important to take the necessary actions in decreasing the risk as well as decreasing the spread of diseases. Acknowledgment and implications of these risks can sure make a differenc
