Action Plan
Develop an action plan to improve medication access/ compliance/ adherence/ monitoring for the at-risk population, while addressing the barriers present. (For example: the at-risk population is composed of a very low socioeconomic group, and the main health concern is hypertension and cardiac-related issues. What could you propose that would improve the access and adherence to hypertensive medications?) The action plan must include:
The issue your plan will address
Resources needed
Stakeholders involved
The details of the plan
How this plan will reduce barriers to effective medication access/ compliance/ adherence/ monitoring in this patient population
How you will evaluate the plan
Literature searches for the topic on the web and in databases are limited to peer-reviewed professional nursing and medical journals, texts, and writings (no older than 5 years).
Uses literature to support claims, facts, and statistics.
Intext Citation present and appropriate.
Discussion/Implications/Conclusion
The Paper will be based on black women suffering from breast cancer, who are of low econimic status, within low income neighborhoods (strictly within the United states). Paper should include social determinants of health specific to black women of low economic status that contirbute to poorer progonosis of breast cancer, and impair their ability to comply with breast cancer treatment, as well as the sources that are/arent available to them that might be available to other women of different races and higher economic status who have breast cancer. Paper should also include interventions that can be made/ implemented to improve their healthcare outcomes, resources we can make sure they utilize to improve health, and education we can provide the patient.
