Occupational Injustice experienced by a Marawi War Victim

Occupation Justice is the right of every individual to be able to meet basic needs and to have equal opportunities and life chances to reach toward her or his potential but specific to the individuals engagement in diverse and meaningful occupation *Occupational Injustice occurs when participation in daily life occupations is restricted, prohibited, exploited marginalized and disrupted. *ABOUT THE ESSAY The essay is about finding an electronic or hardcopy media to identify local, national or international current / recent (in the last 5 years) events where geophysical, socio-cultural, attitudinal and / or legislative contexts are creating occupational injustices. The injustices can be impacting individuals, communities or populations. Examples of such current events include new urban infrastructures, government policies, natural disasters, political unrest, or war, among many others. For this specific assessment, I have given the Marawi Conflict/War that happened in the Philippines in 2017 and I have chosen a story about a family who got relocated because of the war. The story link is provided below: https://www.unhcr.org/en-au/news/latest/2018/5/5b0583c64/year-assault-marawi-city-residents-still-unable-return.html The aim of this essay is to determine what type of occupational injustice is happening in the story link provided. Description of the causes and the impact on the individual and family. *Please read the additional files uploaded to determine which type of occupational injustice is happening to the affected population. For me, the type of occupational injustice happening for the family in the story provided is OCCUPATIONAL DISRUPTION. *Occupational disruption is a state of usually TEMPORARY or transient rather than prolonged. It occurs when a person’s normal pattern of occupational engagement is disrupted due to significant life events which in this case is environmental change (relocation due to war and house being ruined). The most important thing to remember about occupational disruption is that it is a temporary state and one that, given supportive conditions resolves itself. ESSAY INSTRUCTIONS: The essay/report should be written in the following section: 1) Presentation of the situation (400 words) Aside from the story provided, investigation of different sources of electronic or paper media where the story is related can be done to help describe and present the situation in a more detailed manner. Use only mass media, blogs, news, etc. to construct this section. Appropriate links must be provided in this section. Current/recent event should be described accurately with relevant contextual information provided such as: – location of the situation – acute/chronic situation – causes of the situation – populations affected – related public policies if correspondent and etcs. This section can present the situation in general to specific manner creating a picture of the Marawi war down to what is happening with the specific story chosen, 2) Addressing the occupational injustice (600 words) This should be based on relevant and recent (at least 10 to 12 references published in the last 2009 to 2019) occupational therapy/occupational science literature. Take note that literature references should be strictly from of OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY study only. Address this section with the following aspects: * CAUSES: Describe and critically reflect from an occupational perspective on the complexities that are causing the occupational disruption happening in the story chosen (e.g cause why there is no source of income, why the person stopped from studying, why did the person got sick, etc)

Population Health Policy Advocacy

Write a letter to the editor of an academic or professional journal. The length and format of the letter is dictated by your choice of journal. Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented. Advocating for new policies is an important aspect of the masters-prepared nurse. For new policies to be compelling they need to be supported by evidence. Supporting data can be used to illustrate why new policies and interventions are needed to help address a specific health issue. Compelling data can help sway the stakeholders and gain support for your policy. Another aspect of advocacy is disseminating new policies and interventions outside of the immediate care environment. This can be done by reaching out to professional organizations as well as academic and professional journals. A letter to the editor is one strategy for disseminating information to a wider audience, and to potentially enlist support throughout the wider professional community. By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria: Competency 1: Design evidence-based advanced nursing care for achieving high-quality population outcomes. o Evaluate the current state of the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population. o Justify why a developed policy will be vital in improving the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population. Competency 2: Evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of interprofessional interventions in achieving desired population health outcomes. o Analyze the ways in which interprofessional aspects of a developed policy will support efficient and effective achievement of desired outcomes for the target population. Competency 3: Analyze population health outcomes in terms of their implications for health policy advocacy. o Analyze how the current state of the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population necessitates health policy development and advocacy. o Advocate for policy development in other care settings with regard to a specific issue in a target population. Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with organizational, professional, and scholarly standards. o Communicate in a professional and persuasive manner, writing content clearly and logically with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling. o Integrate relevant sources to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style. Nurses have the opportunity to use their skills and develop programs to keep individuals and communities healthy. Health is complex however, and the nurse needs to possess strong advocacy skills to successfully support a cause or interest. The American Nurses Associations code of ethics (2015) describes the responsibility of a nurse to include working through and with appropriate stakeholders to advocate for the health of people in and out of the work environment. To be an effective advocate, there are several important abilities a nurse must possess, including problem solving, communication, and influencing others. One way a nurse can advocate to a broader population is through effective letter writing, both to legislators and through the media, such as with editorials and research articles.

Retrieved from https://www.nursingworld.org/MainMenuCategories/EthicsStandards/CodeofEthicsforNurses/CodeofEthicsForNurses.html As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment. Assessment 3 will build upon the work you have done for your previous two assessments. For this assessment, you will be writing a letter to the editor of an academic or professional journal as a means to advocate for adoption or development of policies that will improve the quality of care and outcomes around your chosen health care issue and vulnerable population. Looking at your health care issue from a prevention standpoint, what are the relevant levels of prevention? o What would be the benefits and challenges of applying a specific level of prevention to your chosen issue and population? o How might one or more approaches to prevention improve the care and outcomes? o How could your policy be leveraged, or revised, to support the relevant levels of prevention? What are relevant strategies that you could use to help advocate for the policy you are proposing? o How could these strategies help you advocate for your policy proposal? o How does evidence from the literature support the benefits of your proposed policy? o How does citing evidence help lend credibility to your advocacy? What academic or professional journal would be the best forum to advocate for your policy? o Why is your chosen journal an appropriate forum? o Which advocacy strategies would be most effective in this forum? o How will you craft your message to best appeal to the likely audience of your chosen journal?

Scenario Throughout this course, you have focused on a specific health issue occurring within a specific population. You researched position papers regarding this health concern, and you developed a health policy proposal to positively impact the health of the affected individuals. It is now time to reach a greater audience regarding your policy proposal. Instructions Develop a letter to the editor of a peer-reviewed academic or professional nursing journal based on the policy proposal that you created for Assessment 2. Choose from one of the journals on the Ultimate List of Nursing Journals (in the Resources) and go to that journals Web site to find out the requirements for submitting a letter to the editor, such as format requirements, topics, and word counts. Make sure you select a nursing journal that covers the topic about which you are going to write. If you want to use another journal that is not on this list, please make sure the journal does address health care, because this is the purpose of the assessment. The goal of your letter is to be informative about the policy that you developed for Assessment 2, while also being persuasive about the need for and benefit of similar policies in other health care settings. The bullet points below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure that your submission addresses all of them. You may also want to read the Letter to the Editor: Population Health Policy Advocacy Scoring Guide and Guiding Questions: Letter to the Editor: Population Health Policy Advocacy document to better understand how each grading criterion will be assessed. Evaluate the current state of the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population. o Look back to the data or scenario you used in Assessment 1 to address this criterion. Analyze how the current state of the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population necessitates health policy development and advocacy. Justify why a developed policy will be vital in improving the quality of care and outcomes for a specific issue in a target population. Advocate for policy development in other care settings with regard to a specific issue in a target population. Analyze the ways in which interprofessional aspects of a developed policy will support efficient and effective achievement of desired outcomes for the target population. Communicate in a professional and persuasive manner, writing content clearly and logically with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling. Integrate relevant sources to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using current APA style (or the journal’s preferred style). Example Assessment: You may use the assessment example, linked in the Assessment Example section of the Resources, to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like. Additional Requirements The submission requirements for your editorial will depend on the journal you choose. To find out the requirements, go to the journal’s Web site. There should be a section regarding submissions that will address how to format letters to the editor, and whether there is a word count limit (there usually is a limit). If the journal does not have submission guidelines for the number of resources required, use 35 sources. To be sure that your instructor knows the submission and formatting requirements for your letter, include the journal’s guidelines on a separate page at the end of the document you submit for this assessment.
