2 Health Promotion in Nursing EXAM 1 Developing health promotion prevention plan An increase in chronic illnesses has facilitated the development of health promotion prevention plans for different communities. Health promotion and prevention plants are established to promote the development of healthy communities (Edelman, Kudzma, & Rnc, 2021). The programs focus on engaging and empowering community members to practice healthy behavior and adopt lifestyle changes that minimize the risk of developing long-term chronic illnesses. Studies indicate that health promotion and prevention plans are established based on a wide range of social and environmental factors that influence the health and well- being of all community members. Researchers explained that health promotion is associated with the wellness of individuals (Brinsden & Lang, 2015). This is illustrated through each individual's attitudes and decisions to promote positive health outcomes. Social determinants of health are health literacy, education level, income level, and ethnicity are the major factors addressed by implementing health promotion and prevention programs. Healthcare practitioners identify the social determinants related to the development of modifiable risk behaviors like the use of drugs, unhealthy eating habits, and lack of physical activity. Communication, education, policy, and systems are the significant factors that make up a health promotion and prevention plan. Communication is used to raise awareness about different illnesses affecting the community. Education provides knowledge about behavior change and actions that facilitate healthy outcomes. Policy and systems encourage healthy behavior through laws and policies that promote healthy choices. Studies indicate that a health promotion and prevention plan comprises a collection of broad ideas, approaches, and research studies to help understand the appropriate action to promote communities' well-

3 being and health status (Brinsden & Lang, 2015). Healthcare practitioners collect information from evidence-based research and case studies about different illnesses worldwide to help create an effective health promotion plan. The plan is established to help people adjust their lifestyles and facilitate positive changes in the social, economic, and environmental status that determine the health of different communities. Healthcare practitioners use health promotion and prevention plans to help establish healthy public policies, facilitate the growth of personal skills for community members, establish supportive environments, and strengthen community action towards achieving positive health outcomes. Obesity health promotion and prevention plans are examples of plans implemented to help high-risk populations maintain a healthy weight through different strategies. Researchers explain that the plan is the most implemented since obesity has become a significant problem across all ethnic groups and communities in the US and globally (Brinsden & Lang, 2015). The logic of obesity prevention plans is to help the general population maintain the appropriate body mass index levels to prevent obesity-related complications. Strategies are implemented from a multi-level approach to ensure that policies and legislation in different communities help address the complex health issue. Population-based health promotion and prevention focus on highlighting the critical issues related to developing a specific health condition (Jennings and Bamkole, 2019). The plan also highlights the importance of following interventions and preventive measures established to help individuals adjust to the necessary lifestyle changes. Healthcare practitioners use different health promotion models to ensure that community members receive knowledge, skills, and resources essential in achieving positive health outcomes on a community level. Individual models used to promote health

4 The behavioral change model, self-empowerment model, and collective action model are the three types of health promotion models used to achieve positive health outcomes within the community (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). Behavioral Change Model Researchers explain that the behavioral change model persuades individuals to follow healthy lifestyles and apply preventive health services to promote their well-being and boost their health status. Healthcare practitioners use evidence-based studies to educate community members about different illnesses to ensure that they are well informed. Key Concepts Studies indicate that human beings base their decisions on the outcomes they believe were influenced by their choices. This means that a well-informed individual is more likely to make a health-conscious decision compared to a less-informed individual. Healthcare practitioners play their role by ensuring that all community members are equipped with information and resources about chronic illnesses prevalent in a region or community. Case Study The prevalence of chronic illnesses across different regions has facilitated the application of the behavioral change model when conducting health or medical campaigns. The model is used to ensure that every individual is aware of their role in developing a healthy community. Healthcare providers implement the behavioral change model to believe that educating people about the necessary precautions to avoid illnesses will help change their beliefs and attitudes towards the perception of a healthy community. For instance, the behavioral change model shares health information about lifestyle-related diseases. Applicability of Behavioral change model

5 Healthcare practitioners create educative posters that enlighten community members about the symptoms or specific illnesses and preventive measures to undertake. The model is considered effective in community settings since it focuses on preventing the further spread of preventable chronic diseases like obesity. Research indicates that the model is unreliable in different situations since it does not identify the factors within the social environment that affect the quality of an individual's health. The self-empowerment model The self-empowerment model, also identified as the self-actualization model, is used to help individuals develop control over their health status by controlling the factors within their environment. Researchers explain that the model was designed to help society members create a personal identity regarding their health and general well-being. Key Concepts Studies demonstrate that the self-actualization model facilitates informed decisions about positive health outcomes, challenging to achieve without educational strategies or approaches. Healthcare practitioners use the model to ensure that individual practices increase self-esteem and internal self-control to help them develop social skills that promote positive health outcomes. The model also encourages beliefs and attitudes that favor more substantial future benefits. Case Study Healthcare practitioners believe that a self-employed individual can overcome temptations that influence unhealthy lifestyle habits. Self-empowerment or actualization was that an individual is familiar with the social, economic, and political factors that influence their well-being to help promote autonomous self-care. Studies indicate that the self-

6 empowerment model explains that environmental factors can facilitate an individual's control of free action. The extent to which an individual acquires the knowledge and skills about the factors that promote their well-being shows that they control different aspects of their lives to ensure positive health outcomes. Applicability of Self-empowerment model Studies indicate that most nurses involved with community development are focused on empowering individuals and groups to maintain healthy lifestyles within the hospital setting; healthcare practitioners ensure that the nature of personal interactions between the patients and nurses allows individuals with the competencies required to achieve a healthy lifestyle. Nurses have successfully helped individuals maximize their potential to achieve personal growth through empowerment procedures. Therefore, the self-empowerment model is used to help community members lose their power to improve growth development end facilitate self-awareness which is essential in promoting quality health and well-being (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). The Collective Action Model A collective action model is a socio-ecological approach used to promote health by creating a detailed account of the connection between an individual and the environment. Studies explained that the collective action Model entails implementing ideas focused on community empowerment. This model ensures that community members individually and collectively receive knowledge skills and understanding to improve the community's health outcomes. Healthcare practitioners conduct health campaigns using the collective action model whereby they facilitate the acquisition of knowledge about prevalent illnesses within the community. Community members are expected to acquire knowledge and practice the skills illustrated by health care professionals during educational campaigns. While using the

7 collective action model, healthcare practitioners can create posters and pamphlets containing important information about the signs of prevalent illnesses and preventive measures to help community members achieve a higher health status. Collective action models facilitate effective collaboration between healthcare providers and every community member since they engage in critical thinking skills that help them understand the factors affecting health care within the community (Edelman, C. L., Kudzma, E. C., & Rnc, D. M. (2021). Professionals from different healthcare facilities brainstorm about other ideas to help promote community well-being. This factor motivates them to engage in critical action that will facilitate positive change on a collective level. Studies indicate that the collective action model is the most effective strategy in ensuring positive health outcomes for individuals and the general society. References Brinsden, H., & Lang, T.

8 Give a specific example and discuss it concerning health promotion in community settings by community nurses Main Objective Researchers explain that health promotion is a relevant practice today due to the prevalence of chronic illnesses. The main objective of creating a health promotion and prevention plan is to equip community members with information about obesity and preventive measures essential in developing a healthy community. Most individuals have understood that social, economic conditions and lifestyle patterns significantly influence healthy communities' development. Evaluation of social, political, and economic changes within community levels has helped community nurses develop interventions that motivate community members to take action for their health. Health promotion strategies are implemented in different community settings like hospitals, schools, residential areas, and organizations to strengthen the health system multifaceted (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). Researchers explain that health promotion should be implemented through policies that help achieve positive health outcomes on the community level. Health promotion campaigns or initiatives motivate community members to adopt and practice healthy lifestyles. Adjusting healthy lifestyles is associated with a reduced risk of developing long- term chronic illnesses like diabetes. Community nurses develop intervention strategies based on the severity of the chronic illness being addressed. For instance, obesity is prevalent among people in different age groups due to poor lifestyle choices and limited knowledge about implementing preventive measures. Evidence-based studies have been conducted over the past years to evaluate the effectiveness of different awareness strategies. Educative campaigns managed by community nurses and other health practitioners have successfully helped individuals adjust their lifestyles by incorporating physical exercise and healthy eating habits.

9 Sub Objective Obesity is identified as a healthcare condition characterized by excessive weight gain. Healthcare professionals use body mass index (BMI) to diagnose obesity inpatients. The BMI helps determine the amount of body fat. Excess body fat is the primary symptom used to analyze the condition (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). Research indicates that obesity is caused by several factors, ranging from genetic, hormonal behavioral, and metabolic. Excess accumulation of body fat is experienced when an individual consumes extra calories; than the body can burn. Studies indicate that the condition has become prevalent in most communities due to significant lifestyle changes that involve limited physical activity and unhealthy food choices. Technological advances have influenced slight movements, which have affected how individuals burn calories. The popularity of fast-food joints selling high- calorie foods and drinks has also influenced the prevalence of obesity in most communities. Nurses in local and global communities have collaborated with healthcare facilities and local governments to create obesity awareness campaigns focused on educating individuals about the significant causes of obesity and preventive measures to apply for healthier outcomes. Obesity Awareness Health Promotion An obesity awareness campaign is an example of a health promotion strategy implemented in community settings by community nurses to achieve positive health outcomes. People have challenges maintaining the appropriate weight due to different reasons. Genes, environmental and physiological factors are among the issues that limit individuals from acquiring the proper weight levels hence developing obesity. Studies indicate that different strategies can be implemented to help individuals lose weight. Obesity awareness campaigns are set depending on research studies conducted in previous years highlighting the rate of obesity diagnosis and risk factors associated with the illness.

10 Community nurses have focused on helping community members understand the significant causes of obesity through education campaigns (Edelman, Kudzma, & Rnc, 2021). For instance, World Obesity Day is celebrated on different dates across the globe to ensure that individuals are informed about the causes, risk factors, and preventive measures of eliminating the spread of obesity within the community. Health promotion and prevention strategies are used to educate individuals about the importance of maintaining healthy lifestyles. Community nurses develop and implement a broad spectrum of obesity awareness strategies. Public health and promotion focus on increasing the integrated actions designed to help reduce obesity levels within the community. The wide range of prevention strategies implemented our ecological, describing different factors facilitating combined prevention actions (Edelman, Kudzma, & Rnc, 2021). Studies indicate that community nurses have increased the recognition of obesity as a public health crisis among individuals from other age groups. The nurses co-operate with healthcare professionals from other state, county, and city healthcare levels to ensure that individuals are informed about the effective strategies used to control the intake of calories among community members. Community nurses implement policy and legislative prevention approaches to ensure that the distribution of sugar-sweetened foods and beverages is controlled using policies and legislative strategies that promote the well-being of all individuals. Having informed the public about the effects of high-calorie foods and drinks, community nurses play a significant role in enforcing policies that impose taxes and increase prices of sweetened foods sold in a limited environment like schools. The nurses also reduce standard serving sizes to ensure that all community members consume the appropriate calories and energy-dense foods. Policy and legislative approaches established to reduce the prevalence of obesity facilitate the introduction of physical activity requirements like bike paths and public parks that allow individuals to walk and increase physical activity. Studies

11 indicate that the involvement of community nurses in population-based health promotion campaigns helps a reasonable number of community members adopt healthy dietary habits and facilitate increased physical exercise (Edelman, Kudzma, & Rnc, 2021). Recognizing obesity as a widespread lifestyle problem has motivated most communities to educate people about the most appropriate preventive strategies. During obesity awareness campaigns, community nurses help maximize educating people in different age groups about obesity. For instance, schools incorporate policies that maximize physical activity and educate students about the importance of maintaining good nutrition practices. Community nurses play a significant role during health promotion awareness campaigns whereby they facilitate the implementation of policy initiatives on the community level. Efforts to reduce the prevalence of obesity are facilitated by implementing policies, and environmental actions focused on improving nutrition, reducing sedentary activities, and encouraging community members to engage in physical activity. The nastiest take part in assessing public support and opposition towards our policies established to maintain a healthy community status. Zoning is among the first and significant strategies implemented by community nurses to help improve dietary behavior that reduces the prevalence of obesity within the community. Zoning works by limiting fast food establishments' development and setting up supermarkets or stores that promote increased fruit and vegetable intake. Community nurses also facilitate the development of available or accessible farmers’ markets that support the consumption of locally produced products. Studies conducted by community nurses during the obesity awareness campaigns help and enforce strategies and actions that increase physical activity among community members of different age groups (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). For instance, collaborating with government organizations to set up working infrastructure ensures that individuals indulge in physical exercise by walking or cycling. Community nurses also help implement school-

12 based health promotion strategies anticipated in achieving desired outcomes for the younger generation (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). Collaboration between federal and state agencies and legislative helps community nurses achieve their intended goal of promoting positive health outcomes by enforcing policies that encourage every community member to reduce calorie intake and maximize physical activity. Studies indicate that community nurses contribute to developing healthcare interventions to prevent the spread of obesity on a community level. Most preventive health care programs designed to prevent obesity include annual screenings that help identify the BMI for community members in different age groups. During the annual screening, nurses ensure that patients are educated about the behavioral and nutritional practices to ensure balanced weight status. School-going children between two and 20 years receive preventive counseling about the effective diet and physical activity to prevent excessive weight gain. Studies indicate that most obesity prevention programs focus on achieving long-term success for individuals in low-income societies and ethnic minority children who have limited access to preventive health care services (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2015). Community nurses ensure that individuals from minority communities participate in research studies to help identify the most appropriate intervention strategies based on the social determinants within the immediate environment (Edelman, Kudzma, & Rnc, 2021). High impact messages are distributed during obesity awareness campaigns to ensure that people adopt the appropriate lifestyle and physical behavior and consume the appropriate food quantity and portions. Community nurses contribute to healthy communities by educating people about the appropriate lifestyle changes to apply to reduce the prevalence of obesity. Health promotion has helped create awareness in different communities about different chronic illnesses' signs and preventive measures. References

14 Introduction Nursing practitioners utilize particular guidelines in their scope of practice to realize the best and desired outcomes by clients. The nursing process is a primary guideline for nurses in healthcare settings. This is a fundamental tool meant to ensure patient management is achieved. Nurses would thus employ the same to develop a suitable care plan that would keep track and assess the patient’s progress in the hospital to release an effective intervention. Besides, the same process has been used to ensure that patients become informed, especially in forums like healthcare promotions. A responsible nursing practitioner would thus embrace this method of care practicing to achieve the best results in the field. There are primary steps that encompass the Nursing process. These include; Assessment, Nursing diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation (Toney-Butler & Thayer, 2020). Assessment is a primary step in the process in that it results in the diagnosis of an ailment. This is achieved by a combination of both objective and subjective data. The second step, nursing diagnosis, involves the patient's present situation dictated by the disease's clinical manifestations. Medical officers would embrace essential techniques like planning and implementation during health care promotion seminars. Process Handling The primary stakeholders, licensed practical nurses, and public members all have a significant role in health care to facilitate the nursing process (Toney-Butler & Thayer, 2020). The proper funds are assigned to support the program during development of the process. Data about the prevalence of trends developing in the general population will be gathered, analyzed, and used to make an informed choice. The process is given enough time, and the nursing professionals are in charge of making sure it goes smoothly. To promote health, the community nurse aims to recognize the optimal level of health for the population and

15 promote health education. A few medical procedures are designed with nursing considerations in mind and necessitate strict adherence from the patient. For the benefit of the population of interest, pharmaceutical activities are prioritized. Preparation Period This is a primary level of planning involving identifying a problem and coming up with a suitable solution. This is vital in that some trivial issues that are critical to the success of your society's health promotion seminar are taken care of (Toney-Butler & Thayer, 2020). Diabetes Mellitus associated with obesity have led to increased death rates in the western countries like United States. This is a central health issue that has to be resolved immediately in the community to foster positive progress. The significant number of Diabetes mellitus patients necessitates proper leadership, which the nursing practice design phase will investigate. Primacies Identification and Establishment Diabetes is a long-term condition in which the body cannot control its blood sugar levels. To some extent, an individual can be hypoglycaemic or hyperglycaemic (Kovatchev & Cobelli, 2016). The aged personnel are the more likely victims of the ailment in question. Besides, they are also associated with other frequently accompanying health issues which take advantage of their immunity reduction. In the case of this healthcare promotion forum, it is crucial to consider the demographics of the people turning up for the seminar since the older people are the ones considered vulnerable. Thus, in the case of the health promotion seminar, a language that is simple and conversant to them must be employed and with a little time spend per each session in the program. The main reason is that older people whose physical abilities have deteriorated are involved. Attendees should be asked to participate actively in the seminar by the Health professionals. The cause, therapy, and blood sugar

16 monitoring in diabetic nephropathy (Diabetes mellitus) will be reviewed. Diabetes mellitus booklets and presentations will be given out to the public. This will act as a tangible tool of memorisation for them to avoid forgetting. Anticipated Upshots Objectives must be met after the seminar for the program to be successful. It is foreseen that the attendees will walk away with a thorough comprehension of the causes of diabetes, including genetic and environmental variables. Healthful eating, regular exercise, and quitting smoking are the best ways to prevent diabetes in the general population. Some of the different types of diabetes such as type I, type II and gestational diabetes must be made clear to the general population. For example, in the case of diabetes type 11, its link with the gestational diabetes ought to be clarified especially to the expectant mothers to avoid pre or post-birth repercussions (Harvey, J. N. (2015). With such comprehension, people will be informed that Diabetes can be dangerous if detected at the advanced stages. In this way, the public should be informed and made aware of the symptoms, such as impaired vision, increased thirst, poly-unanticipated weight loss, and tingling in the hands. Additionally, in the health education, the general public ought to be sensitized about diabetes Mellitus' possible drawbacks, particularly retinopathy, neuropathy, dementia, and even cardiovascular related conditions. In the program, patients with wounds would be made to heal so that we can realise steadiness. After eight hours of fasting, the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) level and the random plasma glucose (RPG) test are two of the most often used blood glucose assays (Meek, Murphy & Simmons, 2016). It is advisable that audience members check their blood sugars with a glucose meter (Glucometer). This is a key scientific technique meant to diagnose any elevation of glucose in an individual’s body. The Choice of the Intervention

17 The role of nurses in blood sugar management and prevention, especially for the elderly, will be explained in the talk. The listeners will learn about home glucose monitoring techniques, and also, the patients will learn how to deal with fluctuations in blood glucose levels. Food products with high sugar content and a low glycemic index should be highlighted in the meeting for diabetic patients. The nurse should examine the prevalence of risk factors for blood sugar instability. The medical experts have the mandate to provide treatment for the predisposing variables when blood glucose fluctuation results from a lack of food or an infection (Harvey, 2015). Health professionals should stress to their patients that their insulin treatments are viable and educate them about the functioning mechanism of the antidiabetic drugs like Biguanides. Moreover, residents should be informed on the insulin injection methods and their right times. However, this should only be done by Proficient Nurses and the ones who are authorised. Besides, it is the role of nurses to ensure that the right is injected. Enactment Stage Re-evaluation of the Seminar's Attendees Health promotion for older adults on diabetes Mellitus is re-evaluated before any healthcare treatments are implemented in a workshop arranged by the Health professionals (Ribeiro et al ., 2018). The head nurse of the session may also be forced to change certain information due to shifts and better. The nurse continues to give health education to the public if there are legal mediations and the aimed population has no changes in their health concerns. Anticipated results and health quality improvement are the main focus of the community health nurse presentation. According to the initial phases of the healthcare strategy, the right procedure has been followed. Choosing a Collaboration Model for Community Health Nurses (CHN)

18 In this method, nurses should gauge if they require any assistance, if so, to involve their colleagues. This is a basic level of nursing process as it ensures that errors are avoided especially when nurses are overworked (Ezeonwu, 2015). Attendees will benefit from having more health professional experts to answer audience questions and explain proper blood sugar management. To ensure that the workshop objectives were met, Community Health Nurses partnered to ensure that any transgressions in health promotion were detected. Workforce empowerment and risk and inefficiency prevention are two benefits of cooperation for the seminar. Putting the Interventions in Place This is a primary phase of the process where the formulated plans are now put into practice (Ribeiro et al., 2018). The clinical guidelines of community health nurses will be discussed at the event. Nurses use printed materials such as pamphlets to get their health message across to their intended audience. At the workshop, a glucometer demonstration is given. The nurses demonstrate intramuscular injections on the upper and lower portions of the buttocks, abdomen, thighs, and upper arm as possible insulin injection sites. To educate the public about their dietary needs, the Community Health Nurse outlines possible health implications. Audience members will be asked questions relating to the health promotion message that will be used to evaluate the program's likelihood of success. Two days during the seminar are scheduled for the public to ask the right questions and get explanations, each session being allocated about 40minutes or so. An elderly population is advised to refrain from drinking and smoking because of a healthcare professional's chronic condition. Nurses in public will make a follow up to ensure that the selected health promotion goals are achieved. The nurses assess the program's effectiveness and make adjustments as necessary.

19 Conclusion In summary, achieving the set objectives in any investigation is what every individual would aspire. However, this is dictated by the root phases. Firmness of the roots ensures maximum realization of goals. In a seminar or any other conference, identification of the right and realistic audience is an indicator of a project that is going to succeed. Futuristic nurses would avoid mixing priorities for a better outcome. This is the only way which guarantees victory and success. References Meek, C. L., Murphy, H. R., & Simmons, D. (2016).

StatPearls [Internet] . QUESTION 3; Discuss how to apply a health promotion seminar or workshop for Individual and family Researchers explain that individuals and families affect the health outcome of their communities. Health promotion is an effective practice used by healthcare practitioners to ensure that individuals and family members are well informed about different illnesses. Seminars and workshops are applied on the family level to strengthen the family’s capacity to adopt healthy lifestyle practices. Helping children and young adults learn healthy lifestyle choices influences positive health outcomes later in life. Healthy lifestyles are adopted by replacing poor food choices with healthy options and helping family members learn better attitudes about appropriate and healthy behavior. Research indicates that the family unit is a major player in maintaining high health standards and preventing the spread of disease. Family members are natural and support each other through different life stages whereby one is exposed to health risks that require preventive and curative services (Barnes et al., 2020). A

21 health promotion seminar is applied for an individual or family to promote public health. Efforts of health practitioners to facilitate greater public engagement in the prevention of the spread and development of chronic illnesses help create strategic partnerships with families of all sizes within the community. Genetic disorder testing is an example of a family-based health promotion workshop used to prevent intergenerational genetic disorders among children and young adults. Studies explain that seminars are established to help families achieve their health and wellness goals. Family caregivers in different settings regularly assess family members to identify preventive interventions most applicable to each individual. This ensures that each family member solves their problems and develops effective community health development strategies. Positively developed family-oriented health promotion strategies help family members identify strengths associated with positive health outcomes. Group, organization, and community Group, organization and community workshops promote health literacy among individuals from different community setups or backgrounds. The workshops are applied by creating sessions that motivate individuals to practice healthy lifestyle habits. Group or community health promotion workshops comprise healthcare practices that maintain the physical and psychological well-being of an individual. For instance, incorporating muscle- strengthening activities for employees ensures that they engage in mandatory physical exercise to promote positive health outcomes. Group and community workshops are objective since they focus on increasing physical activity and reducing screen time in most modern organizations. Research indicates that new programs and aspects of promoting community health are implemented through seminars or workshops whereby community members and gauge activities that effectively improve the community's general health (World Health Organization, 2012). Emerging health issues are addressed using community-based programs

22 but help every individual understand the causes and effects of unresolved Healthcare issues. Physical activity educating individuals about nutrition, and sharing injury prevention education are significant health promotion activities used in groups or communities. Organizations with employees performing high-risk tasks receive education about injury prevention strategies to ensure that they are constantly informed in cases that would require immediate intervention. Community-based health promotion programs help enhance the quality of life by sharing information within different community setups through social interaction. Studies indicate that health promotion on different community levels ensures that health information and education are shared and easily accessible. Hospital-based practice (Mental hospital) Health promotion campaigns are held in healthcare facilities to help create a supportive environment that ensures conservation of nature and promotes positive health outcomes for the general community (World Health Organization, 2012). All staff members within a healthcare facility are involved in the health promotion seminars to ensure that they engage in practices that achieve positive health outcomes. Studies indicate that hospitals are among the major contributors of hazardous waste products and substances which affect the environment. Introducing health promotion strategies in healthcare facilities can equip professionals with the appropriate strategies to achieve coordination of care and reduce environmental pollution when offering Healthcare services to patients. Staff in Healthcare facilities are informed about the appropriate ways of reducing waste and managing ecological risks to promote positive health outcomes (Kumar & Preetha, 2012). Patients within mental healthcare facilities benefit from the seminars held to maximize patient satisfaction. Staff is involved in health promotion seminars to ensure that they are equipped with techniques that facilitate interdisciplinary teamwork and healthy lifestyle practices. are used to ensure the orientation of Health Services and facilitate changes or advances in professional healthcare

23 training. Researchers explain that most healthcare professionals assume that health promotion has been the core responsibility of healthcare providers and health institutions in general. Other promotion settings in hospitals focus on promoting the health of patients helping staff promote their health advancing the organization's ability to promote their health setting and promoting the positive outcome of the health of the general community. Researchers explain that a health-promoting Hospital Focuses on providing high-quality services and creates a corporate identity that facilitates active participation of the patients and staff in promoting community health. Clinical-based practice (Rehab center and OPD follow up) Health promotion seminars are held in clinical-based practice centers to help improve team effectiveness and achieve positive health outcomes. Teamwork is a significant tool used in ensuring quality performance and delivery of care in different healthcare settings. Health promotion seminars set up in clinical-based practice centers provide an overview of interventions used to help team members maintain effectiveness and operation. Studies indicate that diverse team interventions help improve effectiveness since team members share knowledge and skills essential in achieving positive health outcomes. The seminars are also held to ensure that employees are familiarised with the team strategies and tools to facilitate the delivery of quality services. Evidence-based studies indicate that health promotion seminars incorporate non-technical skills among every team member or staff (Kumar & Preetha, 2012). The skills are classified as Cognitive and social since they ensure that all team members are informed about the appropriate communication strategies, task management, and decision-making strategies in achieving positive outcomes. Most seminars are delivered through principle-based training focused on Educating Healthcare providers about the importance of teamwork and exposing them to the appropriate patient safety strategies to apply in the specific hospital setting. Staff are educated about the effective decision-making

24 techniques stress management strategies and practices to control vertigo which is a major challenge experienced by Healthcare workers (Kumar & Preetha, 2012). Some Health Care facility provide their employees with flexible Training kids that are equipped with strategies to promote competencies and strategies used to maximize productivity ensure patient safety. Counselling Centers Health promotion in counseling facilities is implemented as a strategy focused on eliminating dilemmas that may develop in the field of mental health. The senior management in counseling facilities and show that greater attention is given to the Promotion of mental health by facilitating effective decision-making allocation of resources formulation of policies and legislation and protecting their general health care system. Studies indicate that health prevention and promotion is essential in mental health.
