is defined as the health outcomes of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group (Kindig & Stoddart, 2003, p. 381). The American Public Health Association (APHA) defines as the practice of promoting and protecting the health of populations using knowledge from nursing, social, and public health sciences (American Public Health Association [APHA], 2013, p. 2). The nurse must first analysis and collect data before beginning a program for the population they will working with. The resources that are available and needed must be determined.

For example, my father-in-law was just diagnosed with prostate cancer which has spread to his spine, hips, and shoulders, after researching I discovered there are no hospice programs available in the area they live. Talking with the population in that area they dont feel they need hospice services. This is a small community that had once been a booming coal mining town. Since the coal mines have closed and the population is composed mainly of elderly people living on social security and the majority are related spiritual and moral beliefs are shared. When speaking with the community this is a generation who strongly believes in taking care of their own family members. This is a community that doesnt feel the need for outside help so, if programs were implemented the community would mostly likely not use the programs.

Stakeholders play an import role in establishing public health programs. Health promotion and education is often supported through partnerships with employers, faith-based organizations, schools, and health care providers for implementation of initiatives and reinforcement of health information (CDC, 2014). Working with soup kitchens can help provide people with a more balanced, health promoting diet. Many churches are willing to provide areas to hold meetings and educational programs. The public health nurse can visit soup kitchens to provide education on diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure while helping the community make healthy choices from the food available.
