Healthy Living Classes at Maliheh Free Clinic

The audience of “Healthy Living Classes” are students and common people who need life support for living a healthy life. There are lots of people who need to learn how to live a healthy live in a society, thus the “Healthy Living Classes” at Maliheh Free Clinic are the classes that can play its parts to teach student how to deal with health related issues and how to deal with emergency cases as well. Through these classes students will be able to deal with emergency situation as well because such classes will teach them how to manage common health issues within short period of time. Healthy Living Classes is the program design to generate healthy communities as well as to teach student how to deal with emergency cases in difficult situations.

Overall, Healthy Living Classes are the classes that provide students with important information regarding the life threatening injuries, illness because in many situation people are dying with the passive of time. To overcome from such situation healthy living class play a vital role and also provide a mechanism to deal with emergency cases as well. There are different segments of audience of “Healthy Living Classes” including students, common people, and people suffering from long diseases and injuries and so on. Overall, these classes are design to provide people with necessary information about living a good life and to teach people/students that how they can help other people in emergency situations.

However, the audience of “Healthy Living Classes” can be divided into different segments like students, patients, doctors, physicians, injured people, people suffering from long or short term disease and many more. Patient suffering from poisoning, injuries, wounds, patient who need first aid, even the staff of healthcare organization, politicians, leads, businessman, and the list is going on. The operations of “Healthy Living Classes” are done by certified instructor or worker at Maliheh Free Clinic.

The operation of “Healthy Living Classes” is based on different staff members including from first step (check in desk) and the last step is meeting with physician or doctor. Basically the process of “Healthy Living Classes” is consisting of every staff member that working in the Maliheh Free Clinic from check in desk to the physician. Overall, we can say that “Healthy Living Classes” operation involved all the staff members of Healthy Living Classes.

However, if we specifically talk about the “Healthy Living Classes” at Maliheh Free Clinic than there is a hierarchy system which start from lower level (check in desk), after that the patient or student shifted to the Healthy Living Department which then patient/student start learning how to live a healthy live as well as how to deal with emergency cases. On other hands, as we know that every clinic is not limited or based on these staff members, yes there are other members also indirectly impact on the Healthy Living Classes like lobby assistants, transporters, nurses and the list is going on.

“Healthy Living Classes” users are varying from individuals to the communities and countries as well. It is because the information from the evaluation of this program may be used by patients, students, leaders, communities, societies, countries, medical organization, agencies, governments departments related with health, nurses, doctors, physicians, staff members or hospitals, different managers and directors are clinic or hospitals, and so on.

“Healthy Living Classes” process is same like other process at any clinic or hospital, in which a patient/student enter in the hospital/clinic and the process end when student or patient leave the clinic or hospital after getting treated or understand the ways of living a healthy life. “Healthy Living Classes” users are varying from individuals to the communities and countries as well. It is because the information from the evaluation of this program may be used by patients, students, leaders, communities, societies, countries, medical organization, agencies, governments departments related with health, nurses, doctors, physicians, staff members or hospitals, different managers and directors are clinic or hospitals, and so on.

For collecting information from different segments of society I believe that survey method is the best because in survey we can ask important as well as basic information without any hesitation to common people as well as to the higher authorizes related to healthcare. There will lots of people will involve in this process of collecting information that may be consists of students, patients, clinic staff members, governments agencies and NGOs members as well. However, I would like to focus on students and patients because I believe that these both are directly impacted by the “Healthy Living Classes” at Maliheh Free Clinic.

Describe Program

I believe that there is not a single reason for selecting this program for evaluation. There are bundle of reasons for selecting this program like such classes will help student and patient to learn that how to help other people suffering from emergency situation because if someone have information that how to deal with different emergency than there are greater number of chances of survival of patients. Furthermore, the importance of “Healthy Living Classes” is not limited to a boundary rather it’s spread in the entire world because every human being wants to live a healthy life. So such classes or program becomes an important part of every human being so he/she can improve his health as well as improve other people health status as well.

Basically, I selected this program to evaluate because I wanted to find out its importance and effectiveness among students as well as among patients as well. Because such program consists of huge importance not limited to single human rather it deals with a communities and so on. Like American Health Organization and WHO reveals that Healthy Living Classes are very important for the survival of human being as well as for the longer life spam of human beings.

The mission of “Healthy Living Classes” is to improve the health quality of human being for the people living in Greater Salt Lake Area. The mission is to provide free medical services to patients and students even for those who are uninsured and have low income status. The mission also reveals that families that seeking for medical help free of cast then the Maliheh Free Clinic is there to provide them with important and basic health care facilities and “Healthy Living Classes” is one of the free medical services by Maliheh Free Clinic.

The basic objective of “Healthy Living Classes” is that no patient/student will clinic without any chance of survival because surviving life of people is the basic goal of this program. Furthermore, there is not discrimination among races, dignity, respect, and everyone is treated with care, love and equal grace. The basic objective of “Healthy Living Classes” is to provide people with necessary information or techniques through which they can easily manage to live a healthy live and also save the lives of others as well.

Maliheh Free Clinic is a non-profit health clinic with support from an advisory board. Maliheh Free Clinic is organization that provides free medical services for the poor people and for the uninsured or low income population of the Greater Salt Lake Area. The basic thing about this organization is that they believe that nobody should leave the clinic without positive hope. The organization treats everybody with dignity, respect as well as grace and without gender biasness. Maliheh Free Clinic believes to provide free medical services without biasness in ethnicity, and sexual orientation. Maliheh Free Clinic staff believes in providing care on the basis of kind and compassionate acts. Maliheh Free Clinic has qualified staff, with licensed from health department.

Maliheh Free Clinic provides healthy living classes in which people from different income categories can apply. In this program people learn how to survival and how to live a healthy life. This program is based on teaching in which a highly qualified staff member teaches how to tackle difficult situation by using minimum resources. It is an important class for poor and low income class because they ignore many of the important things which they should care for. In this program people learn that what are important things in our life that we must care and we must keep in our mind.

Healthy Living Class teaches and information peoples how to deal with EMS cases and what should they do in any type of EMS cases. As we have experience that sometimes people facing EMS but they have less information regarding such case so they don’t know how to deal with different EMS cases. Healthy living classes will provide them enough information to deal different kind of EMS cases. Such classes will also enable people to know that what EMS equipment are available with different building, mall, stores, shop, homes, so it will also enable them for proper and effective use of EMS boxes and other equipment at time of emergency.

Overall, “Healthy Living Classes” is not only important that it is providing necessary information but also it provide ways of living healthy life. In some situation, people leave hope of survival but “Healthy Living Classes” basic value is to produce hope of survival for every patient and also its worker help other people to produce hope of survival because everyone in this world has the right to live as much as he/she want and we must provide him/her important medical facilities for living a longer life as much as possible.

Design

I want to find the Gain insight, Change practice, Assess Effect of Healthy Living Classes at Maliheh Free Clinic. It is because I believe that this evaluation will be used by not only patient but also by organization to know its program success as well as if there is need of any change in the program. I have selected survey method to collect information from patients, students, staff members, instructions, authorities of Maliheh Free Clinic, and NGOs as well. However, I believe that students and patients are the major sources of information because they are directly related with the program as well as with the organization. As per available information patients/student are satisfy from this program at Maliheh Free Clinic.

Students and patients believe that Healthy Living Classes is going on its right direction and produce desire outcomes for students, communities and countries as well. As per available information patients/students are satisfy from cost of Healthy Living Classes, but few of them complain regarding the charges as well. I believe that students are the major source of information I am looking for because students are directly related with the program and producing the output as well. The other credible sources for getting information are including Maliheh Free Clinic members, government authorizes, patients, students etc.

Getting Credible Information

As I already mentioned that I will use survey method to collect creditable information and this information will be used to evaluate the program that being discussed in this paper.

As I have selected Survey method for getting information and I will use probability sampling technique as well as simple random sampling to get the information from my participants. The sample size of evaluation paper would be at least 250 participants because I believe that the higher the number of participant the accurate the data will be collected.

Justify Conclusion:

As we know that it is the most important part of the evaluation because the basic outcomes of any paper are mentioned in the conclusion section. The conclusion of my evaluation will consists of all the finding (the results of data collected through survey method from at least 250 participants) that I will collect during the evaluation. Conclusion is also based on different other elements to verified the details or information we utilized or collect during this evaluation program project.

Ensure Use and Distribution

As every evaluation report should reach to its audience the stakeholders of the programs so in this case I will ensure the distribution of the evaluation report to the program stakeholders by publishing the report in National and International Journals. After getting this evaluation report the stakeholders of the program would be used it as guidelines for their future framework regarding the program and the organization as well.

Introduction to Planning

Planning is a very critical steps in “Healthy Living Classes” program because it helps to give an insight of how each and every other activity in the program implementation and evaluation will be conducted. Failure to panning is a sure recipe to fail and this is why a lot of attention and time will be spent on planning. Our planning will focus on decision on which activity will be done when, why, and by who. For instance, our planning will employ the results obtained from the survey to find out what urgent issues the healthy workers fee mist be given priority. In other words, the healthy workers will help in determining the main local health problems at Greater Salt Lake Area and this will be a very critical step in tailoring everything else towards meeting this health problem in order to ensure needy individuals and groups gain access to quality healthcare.

In addition, planning will be to explore the community feelings on the subject of this project. It is of utmost importance to ensure that the program is focus on the critical needs of the community in order to ensure that the resources, energy, and time spent to carry out the program do not go to waste but are well accounted for. When compared to other individuals other upper social classes, low income earners tend to be more disadvantage because they lack the financial muscle to purchase good health insurance covers.

Needs Assessment

Just like any other area of the U.S, the Greater Salt Lake Area is faced by a number health problems that need to be addressed effectively in order to ensure that every individual in the area has access to quality and affordable care. Maliheh Free Clinic and the other healthcare providers in this area face rising demand for healthcare, limited resources and inequalities in healthcare because, as mentioned earlier, low income earners lack the financial ability to pay for quality healthcare services. Teaching them about ways to live healthy lives is one of the strategies to improve health among the residents of Greater Salt Lake Area.

The primary of “Healthy Living Classes” are students and common people who need life support for living a healthy life. In Greater Salt Lake area, there many people who need to learn how to live a healthy live in a society, thus the “Healthy Living Classes” at Maliheh Free Clinic are the classes that can play its parts to teach student how to deal with health related issues and how to deal with emergency cases as well.

Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) that was signed into law in 2010, all non-profit organizations are required to conduct community health needs assessment (CHNA) regularly in order to identify and prioritize the unmet needs of the community order to develop effective interventions to satisfy those needs. Maliheh Free Clinic employed this CHNA to conduct needs assessment of the primary targets of s “Healthy Living Classes” who are majorly students and low income earners. A multifaceted CHNA process was conducted and it encompassed the following:

Epidemiological and socio-demographic analysis-An extensive data analysis was conducted and it drew on several national state, and county public data sources. In this process, we compared the health needs of students and common people who are majorly low income earners to those of the Utah and Health People 2020 goals.
Data gathering-

Primary Data –Interviews about the conducted using qualitative interviews whereby 10 students and 10 common people were surveyed. These interviews provided us with perspective on the emerging health problem in the area and also the different emerging community an environmental situations that and can potentially impact health and quality of life.
Focus group discussions- In order to ensure each and every segment of the community was represented, a focus group discussion comprising of two target groups was convened. These groups also involved Maliheh Free Clinic healthcare providers because they are one of the major agencies who serve under-deserved populations in the area.
Secondary Data-epidemiological information and lit searches were employed to obtain data about the prevalence of the various health problems mentioned in the next section.

Priority setting-The next step was identification of potential priority health risks and gaps in access to care from the above-mentioned stages of research. The criteria for priority-setting included:
Severity of the issue.
Availability of effective interventions with measurable impact that can potentially improve quality of life.

The level of understanding of health problems such as emergencies among students and common people.

Maliheh Free Clinic synergies (special expertise and strategic priority.
Development and implementation strategies- Next, outlining of various implementation strategies flowed and this was achieved through a wide range of Maliheh Free Clinic clinical and administrative leadership.

Key Findings

From this nee assessment exercise, number of critical findings were established. The key health needs of the people Great Salty Lake Area in comparison with the Healthy People 2020 goals included;

Heart Disease
Cancer
Chronic Lower Respiratory Diseases
Accidents
Stroke
Alzheimer’s Disease
Diabetes
Influenza/Pneumonia
Kidney Disease
Suicide

Epidemiology

According to Stats of the Utah, (2014) heart diseases, cancer, and accidents are some of the leading causes of death in Utah. Below is a summary of these statistics as reported by Stats of the Utah.

U.S Leading Cause of Death	Total deaths	Death Rate	State Rank	U.S Rate
1. Heart Disease	3,323	149.0	37th	169.8
2. Cancer	2,971	127.6	50th	163.2
3. Chronic Lower Respiratory Diseases	718	32.0	45th	42.1
4. Accidents	1,103	43.4	25th	39.4
5. Stroke	836	38.2	18th	36.2
6. Alzheimer’s Disease	412	19.4	38th (tie)	23.5
7. Diabetes	578	25.3	8th	21.2
8. Influenza/Pneumonia	413	18.6	11th (tie)	15.9
9. Kidney Disease	312	14.1	21st	13.2
10. Suicide	579	21.4	4th	12.6

Other causes of death that are specific to the state of Utah are firearms, homicide and drug poisoning. The status of the factors as reported by State of Utah, (2014) have been provided below.

Cause of Death	State Deaths	State Rate	U.S Deaths	U.S Rate
Firearms	339	12.6	33,636	10.4
Homicide	53	1.9	16,121	5.2
Drug Poisoning Deaths	594	22.1	43,982	13.8

Factor	State	U.S

People without Health Insurance Percentage (2014)	12.9	11.5
Marriage Rate (2011)	8.6	6.8
Divorce Rate	3.7	3.6

The Great Salty Lake Tribune, (2014) also reported that poisoning and suicide are the leading causes of death in the country. According their report, 762 suicides were reported in the area between 2005 and 2009. The next most common cause of death country was found out to be “undetermined” poisoning which typically involved prescription drugs. Moreover, the rate of deaths in the area was found to be 66 percent higher than he Utah norms.

Justification

The above statistics indicate that Great Salty Lake Area and the whole of U.S is losing too many precious lives to various causes of death. While factors such as heart diseases and care somewhat understandable because they cut across the world, suicide, homicide, poisoning, andto a givn extend, accidents are avoidable and therefore, the country and specifically, Salty Lake Area Should not be losing too many lives to such causes. It is a matter that calls for urgent attention from al the relevant stakeholders because it left unattended, it will certainly escalate and too many precious live ill continue to perish robing the country labor and also worsening the challenge of organs in the U.S.

This is the opportune moment for the creation of plans such as “Health Living Classes” in order to help reverse trend because it is extending towards undesirable levels. Through these classes, students, healthcare providers and the common people will be educated on how to deal with emergency situation such as fire, poisoning, suicide attempts and the other causes of death mentioned above. In addition, these classes will teach this audience how to manage common health issues within short period of time so as to avoid avoidable deaths. These classes represent a program design to generate healthy communities and also to teach student how to deal with the above-mentioned emergency cases and difficult situations.

It is expected that upon the implementation of “Health Living Classes”, the trend will be reversed and Great Salty Lake area will realize more healthy living standards whereby no or very few lives are lost to avoidable causes of death such as fire, poisoning, homicide and the rest. This program aims to cut down death rates by 90 percent in the next one to two years. For these reasons, every resource committed to support the implementation of “Health Living Classes” will be accounted for. It is an exercise whose outcomes will be far outweigh the money, tie, and energy during the preparation, implementation, and evaluation, and every other efforts made to make the program a success.

Current Services and Coalition

There are a number of non-profit organizations that provide similar survives in this area. The first major organizations is American Red Cross which provides first-line disaster response services to victims of disasters in the region such as traffic accidents. The other organizations include Mennonite Central Committee, Direct Relief International, International Red Cross, Brethren Disaster Ministries, The Nazarene Disaster Response, and All Hands. While each of these nonprofit organizations deal with various incidents, they can also partners with “Healthy Living Classes” to help address the various health problems and causes of death mentioned earlier. Such partnership is advantageous because it will allow each of the groups to contribute its own expertise in areas where it is most specialized.

The main stakeholder of “Healthy Living Classes” include students, patients, doctors, physicians, injured people, people suffering from long or short term disease and many more.
