Instructions
You are a nurse leader in a community that is prone to natural disasters (e.g. Oklahoma – ‘tornado alley’, the Gulf Coast – ‘hurricane hot spot’, California – ‘raging inferno’, etc.).
You are part of a community collaborative effort to develop a community emergency preparedness ‘tool kit’.
Practicing in an advanced nursing role, you look for a model to help guide your design efforts. After exploring the theoretical literature, you determine that Social Learning Theory (SLT) – encompassing Cognitive Factors, Behavioral Factors, Environmental Factors – can be used to inform development of the ‘tool kit’.
Instructions:
Construct the assignment using the attached template.
For each of the 3 ‘factor’ domains of SLT you will develop an intervention/strategy for the ‘tool kit’.
Provide a rationale that demonstrates the linkage between your intervention and the factor domain for which you developed it. In other words, provide an explanation as to how your selected intervention/strategy is a cognitive, environmental, or behavioral approach.
You will need to provide at least 1 reference from a scholarly resource as support for each identified intervention/strategy.
NOTE: considering that each of the interventions is in a different factor domain there should be a unique reference for each intervention/strategy – meaning a single reference for all 3 interventions/strategies does not demonstrate graduate level scholarship.
Understand that it is highly likely that you will either need to enlarge the domain topic boxes in the template to provide sufficient information about the intervention/strategy you identified; OR you can consider adding a page between the first page of the template and the References page where you can provide depth to the discussion.
