Context

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

The community health nurses practice is population-focused and, therefore, requires appropriate skills. One of the skills is community engagement and organizing. The community health nurse has to practice in collaboration with other agencies as equal partners (Dieckmann, 2021). Community empowerment is among the key goals of community health nursing. Through the empowerment, communities become more engaged in the decision-making process through an active participation approach. According to Melo and Alves (2019), there are nine domains that facilitate community empowerment. These domains include community participation, problem assessment capacities, local leadership, organizational structure, resource mobilization, links to others, ability to ask why, program management, and relationship with outside agents. All these domains form part of community empowerment. Through community empowerment, communities are able to actively participate in health promotion.

Resource mobilization is among the domains that are critical in examining the existence of resources. The first step in resource mobilization is an assessment of the existing resources. The assessment is critical in helping determine which resources are available and any existing gaps that require to be addressed. Based on this assessment, it is possible for the community health nurse to help raise the needed resources that are non-existent within the community. The resource assessment further helps the community health nurse effectively determine how the resources will be able to fit within the designed community health strategies. For example, the existence of religious leaders means that the community health nurse can partner with these leaders in helping reach out to the community members and raise awareness on the need for behavioral changes for health promotion. In the absence of such leader, the nurse might have to look for other community leaders or personalities that can appeal to the community.
