Factors Affecting Vulnerability and Assessment of Needs Discussion

Factors Affecting Vulnerability and Assessment of Needs
This week’s second discussion forum will focus on two selected groups:
Vulnerable mothers and children
People affected by alcohol and substance abuse
Review the video segments titled “Premature Babies: Risks and Cost?” (Vulnerable Mothers and Children group) and “Social Cost of Alcohol Abus?” (People Affected by Alcohol and Substance Abuse group) through the Films On Demand database or in the textbook.
For each segment, select three specific factors from Chapter 2 (e.g., age, gender, culture, ethnicity, education, and income) that are present.
Reflecting on your experiences and knowledge gained in previous courses, discuss how these factors relate to the group’s vulnerability.
Based on the selected factors, assess the health care needs that can be inferred for each group. Discuss which approach(es) to care from Chapter 4, Section 4.1 (i.e., preventive, treatment, or long term), might help address them.
Your initial contribution should be 250 to 300 words in length. Your research and claims must be supported by your course text and at least one other scholarly source. Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts. Provide a substantive response (minimum of 100 words) to at least two of your peers. What risk factors did you select in the segments that your classmate did not? What alternative health needs could you propose in addition to those suggested by your classmate?
