Q

What are program activities?

A

2 different types:
Direct and indirect activities

Direct: steps involved in the ACTUAL delivery of the intervention

Q

What is the 7th rule of implementation?

A

Check your dates to be sure the correct amount of time has been allotted.

22
Q

What is the 8th rule of implementation?

A

Consult with organization affected by the activity

23
Q

What is the 9th rule of implementation?

A

Specify what resources will be needed and their source

24
Q

What is the 10th rule of implementation?

A

Specify what constraints will need to be addressed

25
Q

What is the 11th rule of implementation?

A

Make sure all the people involved know what is expected of them and by when

26
Q

what is the difference between general needs and targeted needs?

A

General needs is a process of identifying exists and what is missing in the programs, gaps in the curriculum

Targeted needs is applying the knowledge of what is needed in the general needs assessment to a particular subset of individuals or category of individuals.

27
Q

What are the 3 primary barriers for access to care?

A

1.) Cost
2.) Geographical location
3.) Mobility restriction

28
Q

What is the purpose of a program evaluation?

A

It is to assess the benefit of the program. To determine if this is something that we may want to continue and if this is something that is actually doing what they are intending to do.

29
Q

In program evaluation, what is define as input?

A

They are known as the program resources, for example the financial resources.

30
Q

In program evaluation, what is defined as transformation?

A

They are the activities: implementation portion of the program

31
Q

In program evaluation, what is defined as the output?

A

They are the end results that we are trying to achieve

32
Q

In program evaluation, what is defined as feedback?

A

They are the pieces that help us modify the programs.

33
Q

What is program evaluation?

A

It is the systematic collection of information about the activities, characteristics, and outcomes of programs to make judgments about the program, improve program effectiveness, and/or inform decisions about future program development.

34
Q

What are the characteristics needed for an evaluation?

A
  • Needs to be practical
  • Needs to be completed within the confined of certain resources
  • completed in a timely manner
  • serve a purpose
  • conducted ethically (can be assessed a bit better than false findings)
35
Q

Why is evaluation of health programs necessary?

A

-To monitor the progress towards the program’s goals
- if desired progress is being produced
- Allow comparisons among different groups
- determine if further support is needed
- to find opportunities for continuous quality improvement
- to ensure effective programs are maintained and resources are not wasted on ineffective programs

36
Q

What are 4 evaluation standards?

A

1.) Utility
2.) Feasibility
3.) Propriety
4.) Accuracy

37
Q

What is utility?

A
  • it serves the information needs of intended users. To determine who’s needs are the evaluation going to serve
38
Q

What is feasibility?

A

To determine if there is a realistic way to evaluate the program. If there are realistic given the time and resources.

39
Q

What is propriety?

A

If they are legal, ethical

40
Q

What is accuracy?

A

It reveals technically accurate information.

41
Q

What are stakeholders?

A

They are anyone who the policy affects. Anyone who has some sort of investment in the program. They can be involved in the design of the policy or maybe simply through information

42
Q

What are the 3 major groups (stakeholders) for the evaluation of public health programs?

A
  • Individuals involved in program operations
  • Those served or affected by the program
  • Those who are intended users of the evaluation findings
43
Q

Why are indicators important for gathering evidence?

A

Because they translate general concepts of the program into specific measurable parts

44
Q

Why are sources of evidence/methods of data collection important?

A

Because it helps measure indicators. Primary (directly from the source) or secondary (from multiple research) can be used to determine the sources.

45
Q

What is quality of evidence?

A

It is evidence that is reliable, valid and informative

46
Q

What is quantity of evidence?

A

How much data is being collected
Determining what the sample size would be

47
Q

Why is understanding the logistics important in gathering evidence?

A

Because it clearly outlines procedures involved for evidence gathering.

48
Q

Why is justification of our evaluation needed in our evaluation?

A

It helps analyze the evidence, make claims about the program, justify the claims by comparing with stakeholder values.

49
Q

What can we do with the results of our evaluation?

A
  • Can demonstrate the effectiveness of our program
  • Can identify ways to improve the program
  • can modify program planning
  • can demonstrate accountability
  • can justify funding
50
Q

What types of evaluation designs are most commonly performed?

A

Outcomes/impacts

51
Q

What is an example of direct service intervention?

A

A program for example: nutritional breakfast programs to low-income students.
