Assessment is a significant phase of the MAPP process. The four MAPP Assessments form the core of the MAPP process. Only intense community attention to these activities can assure appropriate community ownership of the entire MAPP effort. Results of the assessments will drive the identification of strategic issues and activities of the local public health system and the community for years to come. Therefore, although they may appear to be time-consuming, it is important to take great care in implementing the assessments and ensuring that they are done effectively and with broad participation. The Essential Services most associated with the Core function of Assessment are: Monitor health status to identify and solve community health problems. - This service includes accurate diagnosis of the community’s health status; identification of threats to health; and determination of health service needs. Diagnose and investigate health problems and health hazards in the community. - This service includes epidemiological investigations of disease outbreaks and patterns of infectious and chronic diseases and injuries, environmental hazards, and other health threats. Inform educate and Empower People about Health Issues - This service includes providing health information, health education, and health promotion activities designed to reduce health risk and promote better health; implementing health communication plans and activities such as media advocacy and social marketing; making health information and educational resources accessible to the community; and fostering health education and health promotion program partnerships with schools, faith communities, worksites, personal care providers, and others to implement and reinforce health promotion programs and messages. The Four MAPP Assessments provide the foundation for achieving the three Essential Services most associated with the Core Function of Assessment. The four MAPP Assessments — the third phase of MAPP — and the issues they address are described below: The Community Themes and Strengths A ssessment provides a deep understanding of the issues residents feel are important by answering the questions, &quot;What is important to our community?&quot; &quot;How is quality of life perceived in our community?&quot; and &quot;What assets do we have that can be used to improve community health?&quot; The Local Public Health System Assessment focuses on all of the organizations and entities that contribute to the public's health. The Local Public Health System Assessment answers the questions, &quot;What are the components, activities, competencies and capacities of our local public health system?&quot; and &quot;How are the Essential Services being provided to our community?&quot; The Community Health Status Assessment identifies priority community health and quality of life issues. Questions answered here include, &quot;How healthy are our residents?&quot; and &quot;What does the health status of our community look like?&quot; The Forces of Change Assessment focuses on identifying forces such as legislation, technology and other impending changes that affect the context in which the community and its public health system operate. This answers the questions, &quot;What is occurring or might occur that affects the health of our community or the local public health system?&quot; and &quot;What specific threats or opportunities are generated by these occurrences?&quot; Why are the four MAPP Assessments important? While each of the assessments alone will yield important information for improving community health, the value of the four MAPP Assessments is multiplied by considering the findings of each individual assessment together. Disregarding any of the four assessments will leave participants with an incomplete understanding of the factors that affect the local public health system and, ultimately, the health of the community. Collectively, the four MAPP Assessments have several purposes, including: Providing insight on the gaps between current circumstances and a community's vision (as determined in the Visioning phase); Providing information to use in identifying the strategic issues that must be addressed to achieve the vision; Serving as the source of information from which the strategic issues, strategies, and goals are built. After the four MAPP assessments are completed and the results are compiled, the local public health system partners can move on to the next phase of MAPP- Identifying Strategic Issues and Formulating Goals and Strategies. It is during this phase that the services related to the Core Function of Policy Development can be accomplished. Each of the four MAPP assessments will be described in the following slides of this module.
Changing demographics Fastest growing segment of C/A are those 45 years old and up
Our community is seeing an increasingly diverse population due to the influx of immigrants and refugees
While over 80 percent of City and 90 percent of County residents are above the poverty level, children and the elderly are the most affected groups by poverty.
An estimated 17,000 individuals have no health insurance in the City and County. Nearly 60 percent of County and 35 percent of City households without insurance are above 200 percent of poverty. Methodology: Uninsured estimates were derived by applying income-specific uninsured rate estimates to population estimates at the city, county, and zip code level. Uninsured rate estimates were calculated using multiple national and state surveys to derive an estimated uninsured rate for people above and below 200 percent of poverty. Population estimates for each income group were derived by applying 200-percent-of-poverty rates from the 2000 Census to total population estimates for 2005. The uninsured rates estimates were then applied to the population estimates to derive an estimated number of uninsured individuals above and below 200 percent of poverty in 2005. This method is obviously subject to error and CHRC does not guarantee the accuracy of the estimates. Estimates should be used for program and policy planning only, and should not be used to compare uninsured rates across geographic areas.
Overall death rates are declining in both the City and County, but they are higher among African-Americans than their white counterparts, especially for heart disease stroke, and cancer.
Local childhood obesity data indicate that childhood overweight and obesity increased between 2003 and 2007, likely reflecting changes in physical activity and nutrition.
The infant mortality rate in the City is increasing with racial disparities in both the City and County: i.e., more African-American babies are dying within the first year of life as compared to whites and more are born at a low birthweight (i.e., < 2500 grams).
