Beneficiary Stakeholder: A Member of the Population Being Addressed by the Plan
Kalpana’s Plan: Village Elder Community Leader representing the population affected by Iodine
Deficiency Disorders in Himachal Pradesh, India
Do you feel that the identified need is a real and important need?
-
Yes, this is a very real and important need as iodine deficiency in all populations causes severe
symptoms as it impairs the thyroid function and leads to developmental delays or intellectual
disabilities. This is very serious amongst children and elderly since it's most detrimental during
those stages of life. It is also very affecting to a developing fetus as it can impair brain function
and affect the growth of hormones and it may lead to goiters. It may also lead to miscarriages
(Kapil, 2007).
-
In the introduction, you mentioned the effects on child development and pregnancy, it might be
beneficial to also mention the geriatric populations as they can be most impacted with health
concerns.
Does the plan and its effects align with your values and beliefs? Do you feel that the plan accurately
represents you and your interests?
-
This plan addresses the concerns held by members in my community properly, as it can address
iodine deficiency disorders in India.
-
Health is a human right and I believe that this solution would treat everyone with equal health.
-
Will the Indian population being treated overcome this medical skepticism and will they feel
more validated by this intervention?
Is the plan pragmatic? Does it take into account the realities of everyday life?
-
The intervention is very well done as the realities of everyday life are highlighted in the potential
barrier as tackling dietary habits and medical skepticism is an issue as well as overcoming the
geography of parenting with local authorities for enhancing infrastructure needs special attention.
-
A pragmatic plan should address these factors to effectively combat iodine deficiency in everyday
life and yours does a great job at doing this (Stanbury, 1998).
Do you fully understand the plan and its implications?
-
For the plan of action, it might be beneficial to go into a little more detail on how this will be
established.
Is the plan well written and effectively presented?
-
Your plan was very well written and it's very obvious you spent a lot of time and effort on this
assignment
-
I did not find any grammatical errors
-
The presentation was very effective and the flow was ebay to understand
-
I was able to connect all the points and I thought you got the main point across
-
For the enablers and barriers, I would recommend adding maybe one more barrier to really get
this point across that this is a serious concern and there needs to be more done.
-
Good job!!!
