A nurse is designing a community health education program to reduce the risk of obesity in school-aged children. Which of the following actions would best ensure the program is effective?
Focus on teaching national dietary guidelines for healthy eating habits.
Select a specific weight-loss diet to present during the program.
Collaborate with parents, teachers, and local organizations to address community needs and resources.
Deliver a standard lesson plan used in multiple communities without assessing unique community needs.
Collaborating with stakeholders such as parents, teachers, and local health organizations ensures that the education program aligns with the needs and resources of the community. By incorporating diverse perspectives and support systems, the program is more likely to be relevant, actionable, and sustainable. The other options are less effective because focusing on one standard, choosing a specific diet, or applying generic plans to multiple communities does not adequately address the unique needs and challenges of the targeted population.
