Describe one population health risk or disparity experienced by the population and discuss the interrelationships between all the elements portrayed on the concept map. Be sure to provide citations to support your thoughts.
5. Implications for Advanced Nursing Practice – propose one strategy for the MSN-prepared nurse to advocate for this vulnerable population at the local, state, or national level – be sure to specify the Explain how the proposed strategy aligns with the national population health goal or objective related to the identified risk or disparity such as one of the Healthy People 2030 initiatives.
