Advocating for the Nursing Role in Program Design and Implementation
Much like honeyguide birds and honey badgers, nurses and health professionals from other specialty areas can—and should—collaborate to design effective programs. Nurses bring specialties to the table that make them natural partners to professionals with different specialties. When nurses take the requisite leadership to become involved throughout the healthcare system, these partnerships can better design and deliver highly effective programs that meet objectives.
In this Assignment, you will practice this type of leadership by advocating for a healthcare program. Equally as important, you will advocate for a collaborative role of the nurse in the design and implementation of this program. To do this, assume you are preparing to be interviewed by a professional organization/publication regarding your thoughts on the role of the nurse in the design and implementation of new healthcare programs.

The dynamicity of the global healthcare landscape has increasingly placed pressure on value creation and addition to the existing healthcare resources. Amid these changes, healthcare professionals are implored to redefine their operationalization models and strategies to help create and realize value in the care they give to their patients. By leveraging various healthcare resources and fostering open dialogue between themselves, nurses and other caregivers can be steadfast in realizing their mandate to their patients. This paper extrapolates nurse advocacy roles represented by a community healthcare program.
Mental healthcare has elicited mixed responses across the global healthcare systems. While there is a consensus on the need to manage mental healthcare illnesses, strategies to address mental health illnesses have fallen short of correcting the social conception of these illnesses in some communities (Carbonell et al., 2020). These illnesses are still stigmatized in many global societies. The stigma surrounding these illnesses results in widespread ignorance about these conditions and conditions that sufferers do not to seek mental healthcare. This program aims to educate the community in a neighborhood in Akron on mental health illnesses. The projected cost of the program is 50,000 dollars. The projected outcomes include increased awareness of mental health illnesses among teenagers as demonstrated by verbalization of various mental health disorders, increased knowledge of the available community resources for mental health illnesses manifested by verbalization of at least three available resources, and increased awareness of the health impacts of these illnesses.
The target population for this community healthcare program is the adolescent population. Teenagers are considered a risk group for various mental health illnesses. The physiological and psychosocial changes that characterize this group make them vulnerable to these illnesses (Jörns-Presentati et al., 2021). The growing prevalence of mental health illnesses such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse disorders among this population group necessitates the need for heightened healthcare response. This is in an attempt to lower the risk of these illnesses.
