This paper is expected to be no
more than four pages in length (not including the title page and reference
list). Below are the requirements for successful completion of this paper. Please use the following categories as the first
level headings on your paper. See the documents in the APA category in Course
Resources for assistance with APA formatting.

· 
[Introduction:] This beginning of your paper
should catch the reader’s attention with interesting facts about your community
and should include the purpose statement of
the paper. This should be one
paragraph. APA states that you should not
title this as introduction; however, you are still expected to write a separate
introduction. The title of the paper should be repeated at the top of page two
and centered.

·  Community Overview: Identify the community that you
are assessing by name and state and provide a general description of the
community. What is the general character of the community? Statistics should
not be included here. Your community should be the area you live or work in and
should include a residential area. It should be a large enough area to answer
the questions in the text. This should be one
paragraph.

·  Demographic Data: Compile a range of demographic
(population description) data for your community by examining U.S. Census
Bureau reports. Using this data, describe your community. Compare your
community data to state or national data. A summary of this data should be no more than two paragraphs.

·  Epidemiological Data: Compile and summarize a range of
epidemiological (illness, morbidity, and mortality) data for your community by
examining data from sources such as city or county health department reports,
County Health Rankings (countyhealthrankings.org), or the Centers for Disease
Control to describe priority health problems in your area. See the Webliography
for applicable sites to search. Compare your community to state or national
data. This comparison will help to identify a priority community health problem
specific to your community. A summary of this data should be no more than two paragraphs.

·  Windshield Survey: Provide a summary of your observations from your first milestone. Make sure to
discuss observations related to your identified problem. This should be one to two paragraphs.

·  Problem Diagnosis:

o  Using the
assessment data, identify one community
health nursing problem that you consider to be a priority concern.

o  Relate your choice
to one of the Healthy People 2020 specific numbered objectives (not just a
goal). Healthy People objectives are
located within a topic area under the Objectives tab.

o  Your rationale should
also include why this is a problem in your community and factors that
contribute to the problem. Avoid discussion of interventions in this milestone.

o  Include a discussion of your problem with information
from at least two scholarly sources (such as professional journal articles).(Review the documents in the APA category in Doc
Sharing for help in determining sources that are considered scholarly—hint,
.com websites are not considered scholarly sources). This should beno

·  Summary: Summarize your community assessment and diagnosis
findings and include a brief statement about the problem and the major factors
that contribute to this problem. This information should be no more than two paragraphs.
