Overview

Designed to support current standards and goals for the nursing profession, Public and Community Health Services Requiring Greater Attention provides readers with a view of health services that require an interprofessional team of healthcare providers and others who provide social and community services, while considering the social determinants of health, equity, diversity and disparities, population health, and vulnerable populations. The text examines the population health management (PHM) framework and provides examples of public health needs and services. Readers learn about the importance of community health improvement and various types of public and community health services, including ambulatory services, primary care, nurse-managed health centers, accountable care organizations, urgent care centers, community health centers, mobile health clinics, pharmacies, and more. The book underscores the interplay between public and community health services, social determinants of health, and health equity and disparity. The closing content focuses on local, state, and federal government involvement in public and community health services. Public and Community Health Services Requiring Greater Attention is part of the Cognella Series on Public and Community Health Nursing, a collection of concise, informative guides that explore critical topical areas, their nursing application, and their relationship to nursing practice.
