This week our readings took us into Specific Aspects of Health Promotion for the following conditions: Weight Management and Digestive Wellness, Cardiovascular Wellness, and Respiratory Wellness.
Imagine you are leading a focus group which is implementing one of the nursing interventions learned for a specific health problem.
Having you as a moderator of a community focus group that will explore knowledge, believes, attitudes and behaviors about your selected health problem [you may select any health problem]:
1. Define your group and the setting for the activity, applying statistical principles of sample size and homogeneity.
2. Create and share an opening question to explore perceptions of the health risks associated with your topic of interest.
3. Create a question that should explore beliefs and perceptions about external influences related to your selected topic.
4. Create a third question that will help you in understanding the perception (in group members) of roles towards improving the health problem.
