im from Victoria BC Canada
How to complete this assignment
Using the neighbourhood boundaries defined by the Human Early Learning Partnership
http://earlylearning.ubc.ca
choose a community in British Columbia to investigate. This may be the community (neighbourhood) that you work within, live within or are interested to learn more about. If you are taking this course from a place in the world outside of British Columbia, please contact me (the instructor) to discuss possible ways forward in your specific geographical locale.
Using information from Statistics Canada (provided on link below as ‘Neighbourhood Statistics Canada’) research, identify, summarize and present the relevant statistical data with your interpretations ,that provides a comprehensive picture of families living within your chosen neighbourhood/community. Think broadly and carefully about which data points youconsider as relevant to understanding who lives in the community. Ensure statistical neighbourhood data that informs your analysis is from the census data provided. Including information from the HELP vulnerability data, HELP neighbourhood profiles and/or other publications from institutions or coalitions that captures the population ofthe neighbourhood can be helpful., however your presentation and analysis should primarily be grounded in the Statistics Canada census data provided. (8 marks)
With consideration and reference to the above,
Write a thoughtful, short reflection addressing what you view as the potential strengths the population in this community may have to offer young childrens learning experiences (6 marks)
Research, choose and provide information on 2 children’s picture books (appropriate to age 6) that would honour the families living in your identified neighbourhood above. Include the book titles, authors, illustrators and briefly state in your own words how you think the books support and reflect the community make-up (population) of your chosen neighbourhood. (10 marks)
Research, choose, and share 2 practical, quality and creative artifact/input ideas (for eg. an open-ended play material, decor, design material, sensory input…) that an early learning site in this neighbourhood might include or add to their environment and explain how these artifacts/inputs would offer a respectful acknowledgement and welcome to the families in your identified neighbourhood on an
every-daybasis. Think broadly and creatively ! (8 marks)

Document style and format
Please include a cover page with your assignment.
Be sure to support your rationale with citations and references to the course material and independently researched material, using APA 7 formatting. For help with APA citation / referencing style and document formatting, have a look at the following resources:
UBC: Getting started with APA Citation Style
Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL) APA document format and style
Basics of In-text citations
The paper should be approximately 4-6 pages in length, single spaced,with font Times New Roman, size 10-12. In addition to completeness of the paper and depth of understanding evident, overall organization, spelling, grammar and writing quality will also be considered inmarking. (3 marks) Readings: professional resources for educators
A) With the knowledge that families benefit when educators have access to continual learning and relevant resources; review the following links as examples of a few general resources that currently exist in the broader sense and then begin thinking more specifically about what learning opportunities & resources could be made available by the early learning sites themselves for the educators and the families.

Please use the following bullet points as headings; answer each bullet point independently, and remember to use references to support each of your answers. Please do not modify the template.
Part I: All Students
Please answer all the following questions independently with a complete paragraph for each one (please include references to support each of your answers):
1.
As you complete your project implementation (or case study simulation), please discuss how your practice change intervention will improve nursing practice and patient outcomes.
Implementing the American Heart Association Diet and Lifestyle Recommendations aims to Promote Healthy Behaviors and physical activity, reducing sedentarism and curbing obesity trends. A 1% reduction in the predicted obesity trend, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, 2021), would result in 2.9 million fewer obese persons by 2030, saving $4.7 billion annually
2.
Discuss your thoughts on your own project outcome and if other variables influenced your outcome.
Part II: For Case Study Students
Practice Question in PICOT Format
In overweight adult patients in a primary care clinic, what is the impact of implementing the American Heart Association Diet and Lifestyle recommendations, compared to standard care, on body weight in 8-10 weeks?
Please use the following bullet points as headings, answer each bulleted point independently and remember to use references to support each of your answers.
Discuss best practices for implementing evidence-based guidelines with references to support best practices.
Discuss strategies for overcoming barriers in implementing evidence-based practice with references sufficient to support strategies.
Discuss your formative evaluations. How are you addressing challenges and providing feedback?
Staff will call participants weekly to reinforce the use of the Fitbit app and answer questions or concerns about the intervention. Weekly chart audits with participants’ calories and tracking of physical activity compliance will be used as a formative evaluation
Describe your sustainability plan (answer each point independently using references to support your answer):
To sustain the use of the American Heart Association Diet and Lifestyle Recommendations is needed encouragement and proper patient education on the advantages of regular physical activity. Also, it will be helpful to reinforce nutritional knowledge, positive patient and provider attitudes, access to healthy food, and eating self-control, as these are significant factors in fighting overweight and obesity. Knowledge, attitudes, and dietary self-regulation are critical predictors of overweight and obesity to maintain long-term weight management (Balani et al., 2019)
Discuss how the stakeholders will maintain intervention fidelity moving forward.
Are champions appointed to assure sustainability?
Does the site plan to implement this project on other units?
Are there required changes to the technology to sustain your project? If so, how will your champions advocate for these changes?
Describe how your project will become the new standard of care and include how the data may be used to inform health care policy for this unit.
What changes do you believe would be needed at the micro, meso, and macro systems levels to ensure this project’s continuation? (Micro patient outcomes, Meso nursing practice, Macro healthcare facility, or organization).
How will you plan to disseminate your project outcomes?
