There are a great number of resources on the Internet that provide reliable examples of health assessments. It is recommended that you find one public site within your own State/county and you can carry this data over to the Unit 8 assignment. Go to the public link chosen and choose a health issue (i.e. Children with Special Health Care Needs). Review the data and evaluate it. Report your findings in a thorough, well-organized manner. For example, if you live in Los Angeles county, California, this link is an option for you -

Take into consideration the population demographics used in Unit 4. ● What information contained in the report could help you in planning interventions in community health? ● What information could be used in public policy planning? Format your paper consistent with APA 6th guidelines.
