Assessment
Assessment 2: Group Report - Non-communicable Disease Prevention
Learning Outcomes
This assessment addresses the following learning outcomes:
3. Analyse theoretical frameworks and models used in public health and health promotion
4. Apply theoretical frameworks to develop effective health promotion interventions
To write this assignment:
1. Briefly explain your intervention, and any research evidence that supports this as a good intervention.
2. Explain how your intervention addresses primary, secondary, and/or tertiary prevention as a health promotion strategy.

In my views, the intervention required for the change in health behaviors whch would help in building the efficacy and effectiveness of the interventions (Choi, 2018).
My interventions would be based on the medical practices along with the community-based programs which would be defined on the professional consensus based on the evidence. To have the interventions which would be done through the designed empirical studies. With the support of the randomized clinical trials which would be done through the most convincing evidence and it would be related to factors and interactions.
Also, additional information related to the efficacious interventions that require a disseminated to practitioners. With their feedback required for the practitioners that can help in developing into an overall effectiveness of interventions that would be dependent on the real-life settings. It would also important to have an information gained from the physicians, community leaders and outlined through the public health officials and includes patients that aim for the overall effectiveness of interventions.
2. Explain how your intervention addresses primary, secondary, and/or tertiary prevention as a health promotion strategy.
To have a prevention strategy it would include a range of activities “interventions” would be focused on reducing the risks or threats towards the health. With the help of the researchers along with the health experts required for the prevention: primary, secondary along with the tertiary (Akel, 2015).
Primary prevention that would aim on the disease or injury which would help to develop into hazards required for the disease or injury, demanding of the unhealthy or unsafe behaviours which would help to prevent the disease or injury, or any related hazardous factors-:
Secondary prevention would help to understand the disease or injury that can be done thrugh the detecting and treating disease that can aim for the original health and function that can help to understand the long-term problems.
Tertiary prevention would be aimed for the ongoing illness or injury that can develop into a lasting effects and aimed for the people to manage long-term, that can develop into a better quality life. Such as including the cardiac or stroke rehabilitation programs and would develop into a chronic disease management programs.
