Preventive care and screenings are essential components to primary practice. Identify your clinical practicum setting (primary care office, urgent care, etc.) and a population that you typically see (i.e., adolescents, women, older adults). *FAMILY MEDICINE. WE SEE ALL AGE POPULATION ALL GENDER* PLEASE DISCUSS BREAST CANCER AND PROSTRATE CANCER SCREENING*Use the US Preventative Services Task Force (Links to an external site.) or HealthyPeople 2030 (Links to an external site.) to describe two preventative care screenings recommended for the identified population. Discuss the preventative care provided at your clinical practicum site by addressing the following: What guidelines do providers use to determine which screenings to offer? How would you describe the quality of the preventative care you have observed? Have you observed disparities or bias in the care provided to different members of the population? How are screening recommendations presented to clients? How do providers address health literacy and the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Health and Health Care (Links to an external site.) when providing client education about screenings? Screening opportunities are often missed in vulnerable populations and those with limited access to care. Describe changes you recommend in your practice setting and community to increase the frequency of preventative screenings within vulnerable populations. APA style
