Intervention Design 5506
Intervention Design
Scenario
For this assignment, you will build upon the work that you completed for the Topic Selection and Problem Analysis assignment. It may be helpful to review any feedback you received from your instructor, as it could help you develop an improved Intervention Design.
Assignment Instructions
The goal for this assignment is to design an evidenced-based intervention plan to improve outcomes for the population and health problem that you selected in your previous assignment.
Additionally, you will be asked to analyze gaps and barriers related to accessing resources and care for the population, as well as socioeconomic determinants. You will also ground your intervention design in one or more scholarly or evidence-based model, theory, or best practice framework. You will also be asked to do a preliminary identification of appropriate communication strategies for building buy-in around the intervention.
One potential approach to outlining your assignment submission is as follows. However, you should construct your assignment submission in a way that makes sense to you, and could be potentially useful in your personal or professional pursuits.
Possible assignment flow:
- Restate the population and population health need for which the intervention is being designed.
- Look at the gaps, barriers, and socioeconomic determinants in accessing resources and care for the population.
- How do these contribute to the population health need? How would the health need be improved if gaps and barriers were mitigated?
- Look to models, theories, and best practices for a framework that could help design an intervention.
- Which will provide the best foundation for your intervention? Which are most relevant to your chosen health problem and population?
- Propose an intervention to address the population health need.
- Look for communication strategies that are proven for building buy-in.
- Consider the relevance of strategies to the various stakeholders surrounding your intervention design and proposed plan.
- Write a concluding paragraph to wrap everything up.
In your assignment submission be sure you address the following scoring guide criteria:
- Analyze the gaps and barriers related to accessing resources and care for the chosen population with regards to the chosen population need, and how might outcomes improve if the gaps and barriers were mitigated.
- Analyze the socioeconomic determinants that contribute most significantly to the population health need of the chosen population, how might outcomes improve if these determinants were addressed effectively.
- Explain a model, theory, or best practice framework that would be an appropriate starting point to address the population health need of the chosen population.
- Propose an evidence-based intervention plan to improve the outcomes related to the population health need of the chosen population.
- Identify communication strategies that are appropriate for building buy-in for the intervention plan with internal and external stakeholders.
- Write clearly and logically, with correct use of spelling, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
Submission Requirements
- Written communication: Written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
- APA formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to APA style and formatting.
- Length of paper: 3–5 typed double-spaced pages, not including required cover sheet and reference page. No abstract required.

Schwan’s Case Study Analysis & Intervention Planning
This discussion will use the Foodborne Illness Outbreak and Schwan’s Case study as its basis. Before completing this discussion, make sure you have read the case study available in the Resources.
You will also be asked to locate one additional resource that presents either another intervention process or intervention policy (at the organizational, state, or national level). Briefly comment on how the information in the resource you find could help you with your intervention design.
The purpose of this discussion is to provide you with an opportunity to explore an example process of developing an intervention from problem identification to intervention brainstorming to a final intervention design. You will be applying similar critical thinking to your work on the Intervention Design assignment due by the end of this unit.
For your initial discussion post, address the following:
- Summarize the public health problem that Schwan’s needed to address.
- Summarize Schwan’s process of responding to the public health problem.
- What was the guiding question to developing the intervention?
- What was the intervention that was implemented?
- How might the response process or apparent thought process of Schwan’s be applicable to designing an intervention for your chosen public health issue?
- Provide the APA citation of an additional resource that presents an intervention process or intervention policy.
- How might the information in this resource help you with your intervention design?
Response Guidelines
As noted in the Faculty Expectations Response Guidelines, comment on:
- Identify knowledge gaps or unknowns that were not considered in your peer’s posting.
- Identify an assumption on which the posting seems to be based, and pose a useful alternative or contrasting approach based on a different assumption.
- Ask a probing question.
- Elaborate on a particular point.
Support your views with reference to assigned readings, as well as other theoretical, empirical, or professional literature. If you are responding with a personal perspective or an example from your workplace experience, be sure to focus on both the theoretical and practical implications. Cite all sources in proper APA style.
Learning Components
This activity will help you achieve the following learning components:
- Identify a framework for responding to a public health issue.
- Identify characteristics of an effective intervention.
- Identify communication needs of an intervention.
