Population Health Nursing week 3
Epidemiological case study
The Epidemiological Case Study is an interactive exercise developed to teach epidemiologic principles and practices. The case study is based on real-life outbreaks and public health problems and was developed in collaboration with the original investigators and experts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The case study requires students to apply their epidemiologic knowledge and skills to problems confronted by public and community health practitioners at the local, state, and national levels.
Navigating a Foodborne Outbreak: Preparation for Interprofessional Practice is a self‐paced, interactive learning module that demonstrates the importance of interprofessional practice among health professionals to improve and protect population health in the context of a foodborne outbreak.
The module will take approximately 90 minutes to two hours to complete, depending on the level of previous exposure to the content and the learner’s interest in exploring the optional reference resources.
You may choose to complete the module in one session or pause and return to the module, completing it in multiple sessions. The module is divided into three chapters: one set in an outpatient clinic, one at a local public health department and one at a multidisciplinary meeting after the outbreak has been resolved.
The foodborne illness scenario is based on an actual multi‐state food-borne outbreak that occurred in 2015-2016, but the details of the patients, clinicians, and the local health department are fictional. Any similarities to individuals or settings are coincidental.
You will take a preliminary quiz to assess your knowledge of the content before beginning the module and will complete a quiz after completing the module to evaluate what you have learned. You will receive a digital certificate upon completion of the module that will be uploaded to dropbox.
