Part C – Primary Prevention Paper Guidelines – Grading Criteria (Rubric) This paper is designed to help you think about how you, as a nurse, can prevent a disease and promote health within a specific patient population. You will design strategies for health promotion/primary prevention that will reach a large group of people or a community (e.g. WPU students; pregnant women in a certain borough, etc.). Each student selects a health problem from any of the seminar presentations posted for the semester and submits to instructor via BlackBoard by end of module 3 for approval. Once approved, student will develop a written paper (five-page maximum excluding references) and include the following headings (Significance of health problem, Strategies for health promotion/primary prevention, and Variables impacting health promotion/primary prevention):

I. Significance of health problem to health status 30%

1. Implications of age, gender, ethnicity if appropriate

2. Incidence, prevalence, morbidity, mortality, cost implications

3. Identify a population of focus – be specific

II. Evidence based strategies for health promotion/primary prevention 35%

1. Health teaching principles (how would you assess readiness to learn, subject relevance, reading level, learner engagement, etc.)

2. Health teaching approaches. Create an outline of the content of what would be taught. How long would the presentation be, where would the presentation take place, and what format would the edcuation be taught in)

III. Variables impacting health promotion/primary prevention goal attainment 25% relevant to health problem (cultural, legal, psycho-socio-economic, family variables)

IV. Organization, grammar, spelling, APA style of writing, meets page 10% requirements, and must have a minimum of three references (at least 2 current journal references.) 100%

To avoid high similarities result, be very careful about quotes and using other people’s material. Avoid the overuse of direct quotations, especially long ones. Paraphrasing is usually more efficient and makes it easier to avoid extraneous details
