Consider Levels of Prevention in your Community

Week 3: Consider Levels of Prevention in your Community
Consider primary and secondary prevention for the population at risk in your community.

Because you are experts on tertiary care, you need to focus your project on primary and secondary prevention at the community or system level of care. Sometimes organizing interventions at all three levels will help you to focus your project on primary prevention at the community and system level of care. You may include a secondary prevention at the community and system level of care. Just make sure you cover primary prevention well. (See shaded cells in the table below.) Note any gaps in care in your community at this time.

Please address the following in your discussions:
• Share your progress: your population of interest (obese children) and your initial ideas on what is needed to address the health problem ( change in eating habit, increase in physical activities, phyisical screening in the community or schools etc). (If it is helpful, use the chart above to map all levels of prevention. Highlight primary prevention and post for the group.)
• What do you know about this group (obese children) so far? Who have you contacted about the population at risk (E.g parents and teachers)?
• Where is the gap in care to address and prevent this health problem?
• Help each other to clarify the problem, help each other with sources of information.
