How does the epidemiologic triad differ when a nurse is providing care to someone in the community or in his home? Does the nurse have more or less control in either arena?

Can any of these factors be modified? What could nurses do to help cut down on costs related to the different factors?
4. Why are the causes of morbidity and mortality in other countries different than in the United States? In what ways are they the same? Why do those differences exist? What types of services & interventions are needed in less developed countries to help with their health issues?

Final Project: Final Paper
This week, you will describe the range of options that are available to address the problem. (Defining a core list of reasonable options is a critically important part of the process of developing a solution to a problem.) You will also formulate a concise argument for your recommendations for the problem
For this assignment:

Review a reputable source of information on developing options and resolving conflicts when solving problems.
Study the range of options that have previously been proposed or tested for solving your chosen environmental health problem. Create additional potential options based on your own judgment and knowledge. Identify potential advantages and disadvantages of each option.
Write a 15- to 20-page, double-spaced paper in Word format addressing the following:

State the 2- to 3-sentence problem statement you submitted in Week 2.
Briefly introduce the topic of generating options when solving a problem. Describe a formal method by which the advantages and disadvantages of potential options can be evaluated by stakeholder groups to rank the potential options and to resolve conflicts when ranking options.
Describe and analyze several options to address the problem (options). Include solutions for populations with disparities, if applicable.
Limit your consideration to three to four major options. Briefly describe each option and the main advantages and disadvantages of each major option for solving the problem, including:

The likely effectiveness of the proposed solution
Costs in terms of dollars as well as effort and other resources (the exact costs are not needed but options should be described in semiquantitative terms ranging from “very expensive” to “relatively inexpensive” or ranging from “most expensive” to “least expensive”)
Time required for the option to bring about the desired result
Stakeholder issues (limit this section to the key stakeholder groups you identified in your Week 4 landscape paper. Discuss your three to four proposed options with regard to acceptability to certain stakeholders, lack of acceptability to other stakeholders, and common ground for all stakeholders)
Potential unforeseen consequences of the proposed solution or difficulties in implementing the solution

Summarize your three to four chosen options
Clearly identify which option is favored.
Describe why this option is preferred over the other options. Explain why, despite the drawbacks, this is the best action to take.
Identify what, if any, actions may be taken to mitigate or to overcome the negative aspects of your recommendations.
