Identify three alterations in health that you would propose and describe them. Identify a minimum of three comprehensive interventions for each alteration. Integrate cultural considerations in your interventions.

I would propose three alterations within the health sector to prevent the preliminary issues prevalent in old age. The alterations include the formation of therapy departments, the enhanced undertaking of home safety evaluation, and improved analysis of problem detection tools. First, the construction of therapy departments. One of the fundamental goals of health is the promotion of care, and such a therapy department is a critical component in enhancing the health of older people through the prevention of fall incidents. To make the alterations dream a reality, the following interventions must be undertaken: a comprehensive evaluation of the home environment, both the internal and the external environment factors.

Moreover, the environment is assessed, and dangerous obstacles such as stairs and poor lighting are eliminated. Also, home aid kits are to be added at home to facilitate faster treatment of injuries. The cultural intervention would be introducing Tai Chi programs to promote mobility. Second, an enhanced evaluation of home safety evaluation (Pega et al., 2016, p. 420). The improved safety evaluation would balance the patient and the environment. The following interventions would be undertaken: hiring an occupational therapist to visit and assess older people and their home environment, a deep analysis of the home aspects, and removing things that seem unsafe for older people. And lastly, the cultural introduction would educate older people on the importance of home safety. Third, enhanced analysis of problem detection tool. To achieve the desired results in detecting health problems among the elderly, there is a need to improve the available tools to help catch the issues earlier. The interventions would be to train the health personnel on using the devices. The elderly should visit the health centers frequently for diagnosis, and the cultural intervention would be peer education for the elders on the need for frequent hospital diagnosis.

Conclusion

Old age is a critical component in life. Hence, planning and accessing care for older people is a continuous process incorporating various techniques and stakeholders. The above methods and interventions need to be adopted and implemented for the healthy living of old people.
