Your original response to the Discussion topic should be at least 350 words and should reflect the fact that you have completed the assigned readings and activities for the week. Use your words wisely so that the posting has substance and includes examples and explanations. Best practice is to include citations and a reference list.
Take time to review the responses of your classmates and respond specifically and substantially to at least two other students’ postings.
Scenario: Jonathan and Karen
Jonathan and Karen are a couple who have been married for 7 years. They are currently living in poverty, and are having difficulty putting food on the table every night. Karen is 8 weeks pregnant. She was adopted at birth, and knows nothing about her biological family. Karen recently started experiencing symptoms such as dizziness and issues with her vision. She was evaluated by a doctor and diagnosed with a genetic disorder that is progressive in nature. The course of the disorder is unpredictable, and it is suspected to have a genetic link. The couple is concerned about how the pregnancy may impact Karen’s genetic disorder, and they are also concerned about transmitting the disorder to the baby. Jonathan and Karen have been trying for a long time to have a child, and they have come to you for some guidance on how to deal with some of their concerns, and the stress that they are experiencing related to their situation.
Using the epigenetic model, illustrate how you would address the couple’s concerns related to the possible transmission of the disorder to the baby.
Explain how you would approach the issues the couple is experiencing related to poverty. Examine how you would discuss the impact of inadequate nutrition on the baby while keeping in mind the fact that the couple is already experiencing many concerns about their situation.
In thinking of your role as a human service professional, explore and analyze some of the resources in your own community that would be able to assist this couple. Share these resources with the class and explain why you chose them, if you feel the resources in your community are adequate, and if not what is missing.
Thank You
Prior to engaging in this discussion, please read Chapter 12 in the text and review any relevant Instructor Guidance. It is suggested that you review the recommended articles to glean any helpful information. Imagine that you run a nursing home facility in your area. Analyze and comment on the role public policy has in the economic aspect of running this type of health services center. Compare and contrast the economic challenges and incentives this type of health care model presents. What are some of the ways in which you could inform or signal potential consumers that your nursing home is of high quality? Evaluate the social-cultural issues that influence the consumers of this type of health service. Which of your proposed methods are most apt to be reliable signals that significantly communicate to consumers so they are able to make more informed decisions?
Robert and Maria’s grandchildren recently saved up and treated their grandparents to a new laptop as an anniversary gift. The plan was for grandparents and grandchildren to stay in touch through email and visual live chats. Robert and Maria were thrilled, but the laptop is still sitting in its box in the spare bedroom. The family is coming for a visit next week, so Robert and Maria anxiously await their grandchildren to come and show them how to use the laptop.
For this week’s Discussion, you examine factors of digital media and its degree of acceptance or potential for anxiety by older adults.
To Prepare for this Discussion:
Take the perspective of an older adult and consider the following three factors that might affect the degree of acceptance and use of digital media:
Technology anxiety
Cognitive Age
Venturousness
By Day 4
Post at least two reasons why an older adult might/might not choose to use digital technologies. Refer to the three factors and include scholarly resources to support your reasoning. Use proper APA format and citation.

For this assignment you will identify a prominent public health leader(s) or group. This
can be a nurse or other public health professional. Your selection must be a leader(s) or
group of individuals who are currently addressing one of the problems the APHA has
undertaken. I think McNamara is a good pick his work is still going strong …. if you find something better use it I am not sure if this would be a good pick.
Based on your personal research and reflection on the assigned readings and your
exposure to media influences. You will compare a current day public health leader or
group to a public health reformer from the past. You must provide documented evidence
for your discussion by citing at least one source: book, electronic book, electronic journal
or newspaper article or authoritative website. Use 6th edition APA citation format to cite
the source.
Be sure to answer all 3 questions below as part of your thorough discussion.
1. Compare characteristics of your selected modern day public health leader(s) with a
public health reformer or nurse leader from history. What characteristics do they
share? In what ways do they differ (evaluate the core functions of the public health
figures both past and present)? Be specific in your response rather than provide
generalizations.
2. Now identify 2 top public health priorities that the APHA has undertaken and explain
why these issues are so important in today’s society.
3. Next discuss a continuing public health problem that has historically been a
significant public health issue and is still an issue today. Why do you think this
health problem remains a focus of public health even today? Why has the problem
been difficult to eradicate?

Assignment Details
Part 1
Plants develop specialized roots, stems, leaves, and flowers to make them better adapted to their environment. People exploit many of these modifications as vegetables. An example of this is the taproot of carrots. The carrot plant stores sugars in the taproot to supply energy for the formation of flowers in later development. People dig up and eat the taproots while the sugar content is still high. Complete the following:
Describe the anatomy (structure) and physiology (function) of a plant. Is the structure of your plant a modification from the standard root, stem, leaf, or flower?
Explain how this structure differs from the standard root, stem, leaf, or flower.
Compare the plant that you have chosen, its structure, and its function with 1 or more of your classmates’ choices.
Part 2
Animals are important for humans in ways other than providing food. Medicines, clothing, beauty, fuel, air quality, building materials, and industrial products are a few of the ways in which humans exploit animals. Complete the following:
Choose 1 product or benefit that people get from animals (besides food), describe it, and explain how people benefit.
Which do you think is the most important benefit of animals? Select 1 benefit and explain.
List 3 adaptations that animals have that plants do not have.
Provide references in APA format. This includes a reference list and in-text citations for references used throughout the assignment.
