Program Implementation

    Scenario 1: In Namibia, a country in South Africa, health care is provided through the government, mission facilities, and private agencies. The country is sparsely populated, and many people in rural communities have no transportation; as such, they walk to health care facilities. Imagine that you are a health educator who has been asked to address the high incidence of children contracting malaria and other illnesses. You want to educate parents about what symptoms necessitate bringing a child in for care, and what to do in case they cannot bring the child in due to transportation or other issues. Post the number of the scenario you chose (make sure to include the number of your chosen scenario in the subject line). Explain how you might implement the public health program in the scenario in a health care setting. Then, explain how you might implement the same program in a community setting. Include in your post how the implementation would differ based on each setting. Explain one potential strategy you would use in a health care setting and one potential strategy you would use in a community setting to ensure that the public health program achieves the intended outcomes.
