Category: Program Outcomes #2

Program outcome 2: Demonstrate understanding of the interconnectedness of personal. family, organizational, community and societal health.

The second activity I choose to demonstrate interconnectedness was a paper written about some T.E.D. talks. I did not know about the T.E.D. talks until I was introduced to them by the HS 460C Leadership and Teamwork of Health Care Professionals class. I have been blown away by the mini lessons of this web site. It is impossible not to see how everything is connected to everything if you watch more than two of these talks. Almost all the talks demonstrate how action on a personal level can affect so much more than just yourself. This program outcome expresses some of my personal beliefs about how we human work in general. I found that this was a running theme thru all of my classes. This activity demonstrates only one small part of the interconnectedness of healthcare and health care promotion. This one assignment demonstrates a small part of this.

Program outcome 2: Demonstrate understanding of the interconnectedness of personal. family, organizational, community and societal health.

This was the most difficult of the outcomes to pick different activities to demonstrate. I found myself again having a kind of a theme with the Three activities that I choose. The first on is an activity that I completed in HS 200 Healthy Lifestyles. The activity title is “Five Random Acts of Kindness.” I was able to document how I as one person could affect other women personally, in their community by working with an organization that is dedicated to effecting societal health. With some simple acts of kindness, I was able to effects all areas in a positive way to increase not only my health but also the health of others. I am not able to as effectively do this in my regular line of work as I am not as able to bring the connections together of the community and societal health in general. I can very effectively demonstrate all the connections personal, family, and organizational in my regular practice. This activity was very touching for myself on many levels. This was a hands on activity that put you in the real world to demonstrate how my learning will Affect myself and the impact I can have on the world in general.
