Overview
This unit will advance your knowledge of health promotion related to the enhancement of healthy ageing outcomes. You will gain a greater understanding of the theories of health promotion and their influence on contemporary policy and practice. You will critically appraise existing health promotion strategies to assess their adequacy to empower and enhance well-being in older people. Evidence-based research will be applied to judge the suitability of public health interventions and social marketing to influence and maximise quality of life. You will formulate recommendations to improve health promotion theories, strategies and interventions.

1 Written Assessment
Aim
The aim of this assessment is to provide you with an opportunity to analyse, critique, and evaluate the relevance of health promotion theory to healthy ageing aiming to improve health outcomes for older people.
Instructions
You are required to select one health promotion theory and analyse and justify the application of this theory to your care of Mrs. Nellie Winma who was admitted to the hospital with uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes which has been poorly controlled by diet.
Mrs. Winma (58 years), lives with her extended family in a remote Aboriginal community. Mrs. Winma left school at 13 and worked as a cook on the nearby local cattle station since then.
Please follow the steps below to complete your assessment task:
Step 1. Select one health promotion theory that you believe is relevant to your care of Mrs. Winma.
Step 2. Review and research the current literature on this theory, providing background information and related evidence to justify selection and application to the care of Mrs. Winma.
Step 3. Critically evaluate this theory and its application to its ability to meet the needs of Mrs. Winma, using evidence-based research.
Step 4. Substantiate your discussion using current, relevant, peer-reviewed literature.
Step 5. Conclude with a succinct summary of your essay.
The following is a suggested structure for your essay:
Introduction (250 words) – Introduce your topic. The introduction outlines the key points of your essay. It will inform the reader what you are writing about - why you are writing about it and how you will discuss this topic.
The main body of the essay (1500 words)
1. Identify and explain the health promotion theory selected.
2. Justify the selection of the theory and how this relates to the care of an older person in your clinical setting or area of interest.
3. Review and research the current literature on this theory, providing background information and related evidence to justify selection and application to the care of Mrs. Winma.
4. Critically evaluate this theory and its application to its ability to meet the needs of Mrs. Winma, using evidence-based research.
5. Substantiate your discussion using current, relevant, peer-reviewed literature
6. Conclusion (250 words) – There are to be no references in this section. The conclusion should summarise the key areas that address the set task. No new information should be included.
Support
You can provide a draft of your assessment for review, before submitting the assessment. The Unit Coordinator will provide informal feedback on the first page of your draft. Please email your draft to the Unit Coordinator by the 20th of April, 2022.
Literature and references
In this assessment use at least 10 contemporary references (<10 years) to support your discussion. You may also use seminal scholarly literature where relevant. Suitable references include peer-reviewed journal articles as well as textbooks and credible “grey literature”. When sourcing information, consider the 5 elements of a quality reference: currency, authority, relevance, objectivity, and coverage. Grey literature must be from reputable sources such as from government, university, or peak national bodies: for example, Aged & Community Services Australia (ACSA) or Leading Age Services Australia (LASA) or Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission (ACQSC), or other such as these.
Requirements
1. Use a conventional and legible size 12 font, such as Times New Roman or Arial, with 1.5 line spacing and 2.54cm page margins (standard pre-set margin in Microsoft Word).
2. Include page numbers on each page in a header.
3. Write in the third-person perspective, keeping your writing as objective as possible.
4. Use formal academic language.
5. Use the seventh edition American Psychological Association (APA) referencing style. The CQUniversity Academic Learning Centre has an online APA Referencing Style Guide.
6. The word count is considered from the first word of the introduction to the last word of the conclusion. The word count excludes the reference list but includes in-text references and direct quotations.
Resources
· You can use unit-provided materials and other credible sources (e.g., journal articles, books, grey literature) to reference your argument. The quality and credibility of your sources are important.
· We recommend that you access your discipline-specific library guide: the Nursing and Midwifery Guide; Social Work and Community Services Guide.
· We recommend you use EndNote to manage your citations and reference list. However, this is not mandatory. More information on how to use EndNote is available at the CQUniversity Library website.
· For information on academic communication please go to the Academic Learning Centre Moodle site. The Academic Communication section has many helpful resources including information for students with English as a second language.
· Submit a draft before the due date to review your Turnitin Similarity Score before making a final submission. Instructions are available here.
Submission
Submit your assessment via the unit Moodle site in Microsoft Word format only.

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.
Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.
When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.
Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.
As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.
What is a breach of academic integrity?
A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.
Why is academic integrity important?
A breach of academic integrity may result in one or more penalties, including suspension or even expulsion from the University. It can also have negative implications for student visas and future enrolment at CQUniversity or elsewhere. Students who engage in contract cheating also risk being blackmailed by contract cheating services.
Where can I get assistance?
