Angela Friel C688704X 3.2 TMA02 Part A ‘The care and support that we provide for people should enable them to make the most of their lives’ (DH. 2006, p.13). How successful are health and/or social care services in achieving this aim? Introduction This essay will consider whether health and/or social care services enable people to make the most of their lives. It is important that services can be user led and person centred.
Monitoring the health status of the population means that the government will keep track of the health in the UK population and also announce any problem with public health For example once the trends and patterns of Chlamydia are seen, the government would have to see what type of service is needed such as clinics and walk in centres. Developing programmes to reduce risk and screen for disease early on is a service which identifies people who are more likely to develop and are at risk of getting ill and finding ways of reducing the risk by introducing programmes. For example people who have been in sexual contracted an infection or disease should be aware that they can be tested of how far its gone and how it can be treated For example advertising what STIs and STDs are and making people aware of the problems and where they can go for advice and treatment. Planning and evaluating the provision of health and social care is looking into health services and seeing if they whether or not they have an impact on the problem. For example if the health service which provides the HPV injection for people, and they notice that people who have had the injection still manage to contract the disease, the injection will have to evaluated to make it more affective so that it is worth have the injection.
A Film Exploration into the effects of governmental policies on the social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal people. Kanyini is a film directed by Melanie Hogan and explores how colonisation has contributed to the health gap between Indigenous and non-indigenous Australians. The historical context of the film gives insight into the health related issues that are endured by Aborigines. Linguistics and cultural differences are guiding the miscommunications and interpretations that are contributing to the health communication and health service delivery gap. The importance in understanding the social, emotional and cultural health factors pertaining to Indigenous health become evident in Randall’s account of colonisation.
