I learned that population health concerns relate to the health outcomes of individuals within a specific group. The population may live under similar conditions, such as in cities, states, or countries. They may also include people from various same-age groups, ethnic communities, gender, or occupation. In my evidence-based project, my population entails hospitalized patients predisposed to high risks of HAIs (Health Concerns and Disparities-Nursing Examples<\/span>)<span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">The project will therefore seek to understand how care delivery models, hospital environments, and providers&#8217; and patients&#8217; behavioral factors affect the populations&#8217; health to address problems identified and improve health outcomes. I also learned that healthcare disparities are avoidable differences in disease and opportunities to achieve optimal health by socially disadvantaged and minority populations. The disparities occur across age, language, geography<\/span> and <span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">citizenship status<\/span>.

I discovered lack of evidence-based practice led to the rise of HAIs among hospitalized patients. Thus, implementing evidence-based care bundles as a gold standard to curb infections will curb HAIs and improve patient outcomes. I also promoted health equity by providing equal care opportunities for my patients regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation (Health Concerns and Disparities-Nursing Examples<\/span>)<span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"705\" height=\"1030\" src=\"https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-705x1030.jpg\" alt=\"Health Concerns and Disparities-Nursing Examples\" class=\"wp-image-264793\" style=\"width:871px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-705x1030.jpg 705w, https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-205x300.jpg 205w, https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-768x1123.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-1051x1536.jpg 1051w, https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-1401x2048.jpg 1401w, https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/cover-1-scaled.jpg 1751w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">Health Concerns and Disparities-Nursing Examples<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">This week, I encountered no significant challenges but required my preceptor&#8217;s supervision and guidance while dealing with different population health concerns and disparities. My preceptor taught me about health coverage, access to and use of care, affordability, and quality of care.

One of the significant roles of <a href=\"https:\/\/nursingstudy.org\/examples\/competencies-for-leadership-on-health-care\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"232825\">health leaders<\/a> is to connect current practices to health policies to implement changes in the healthcare sector (<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">Campos &amp; Reich, 2019)<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; color: black; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">.
