Written Assignment Outline

Assignment outline

The assignment must focus on one determinant of health.

The assignment must critically explore this determinant in terms of the individual, as well as the wider socio-political and economic context.

Current evidence and policies in relation to the social determinant and its potential impact or relationship to the individual in the case study should be utilised to support this work.

The one determinant of health to be used should be about Individual lifestyle factors relating to the case study:

In examining and selecting this determinant of health you may consider any of the following: the individual, their biopsychosocial factors and any associated lifestyle factors.

So have a look at the Dahlgren and Whitehead’s model and select the determinant highlighted in yellow and explore in relation to the Case Study for adult nursing.

Then do a literature search in relation to this determinant.

Dahlgren and Whitehead’s (1971) model: Wider determinants of health

The current context of health and healthcare provision in the United Kingdom and how this might impact on the individual should also be considered.

Critique evidence from a range of sources for example, NICE, the Department of Health, Public Health England, the King’s Fund, World Health Organisation, Marmot review, and other peer reviewed sources and publications.

Overall, the discussion should give a logical and coherent argument of the key issues and demonstrate an understanding of the factors that impact on health and illness.

Evidence should include data, facts, quotations, arguments, statistics and research from your readings as evidence. Make sure that you include a reference and explain how and why you think this evidence supports your point.
