I wanted to offer some insight into the Heritage Assessment Assignment for this week.
1. This week you will do a heritage assessment on 3 families of different cultures (one can be your own family). You will be looking at the differences in how these families have different health traditions.
2. You will need to access the heritage assessment tool through the link provided in the instructions for the assignment.
3. You will complete the heritage assessment tool and submit it to me with your assignment. You can scan it in and save it as a file.
4. Review the instructions and the grading rubric carefully. Be sure you have met the criteria listed in the grading rubric to help ensure you earn the most points possible.
5. In your writing make sure you have discussed the usefulness of applying a heritage assessment in evaluating the needs of the whole person.
6. You will need to ask additional questions to meet the requirements of the grading rubric.
7. You will need to find the common health traditions of the culture of each family and use your sources to cite these. Make sure you then compare how the family interviewed participates (or doesn’t participate in these practices). DON”T MISS THIS STEP! This is a common mistake on this assignment.
8. Using the information from the family assessments compare the differences that each family (culture) had in how they deal with health maintenance, health protection and health restoration.
9. Be sure in your writing that you identify common health traditions based on the cultural heritages of the families interviewed.
10. Include in your writing your evaluation of how each family subscribes to these traditions and practices.
11. Be careful with your APA formatting! Review and check your use of in text citations and references. Remember this is to be your writing with the citations from your sources to support your writings.
12. Review formatting of the title page and running head – this is a frequent mistake.
It is always interesting to read about the different families and cultures that you all write about. I look
forward to seeing your work
