Your answer should include:
– Background to the determinant including any relevant statistics and;

- The impact of the determinant on physical and/or mental health may be positive and/or negative.
- You may not be able to discuss every aspect of the determinant and their impact on health within the maximum word limit; therefore you may need to limit your discussion to the major aspects of the determinant and their impact on health. For example, you may choose to limit your discussion to the impact on either physical or mental health or to a subset of aspects or examples of the determinant. Your introduction is the ideal place to outline the scope of your essay. If you have any questions please discuss with your tutors.

1 Discuss how low socioeconomic status (SES) can impact on the health outcomes of elderly people. 2 Discuss how employment (or unemployment) can impact on the health outcomes of people with disabilities. 3 Discuss how living in a remote area (isolation) can impact on the health outcomes of all Australian adults (please do not just focus on Australian Aboriginal populations). 4 Discuss how access to services (or lack of access to services) can impact on the health outcomes of migrants and/or refugees in Australia. 5 Discuss how food security can impact on the health outcomes of people of low socio-economic status. Definition of Health
$5.00One of the most frustrating barriers to good problem solving, or good proposal writing, is the difficulty in communicating in such a way that our readers or listeners understand what we’re saying exactly the way we want it understood. We have a particularly difficult time when we are dealing with abstract concepts…those concepts that do not have a physical presence that can be directly investigated using empirical (physical) means.
In an attempt to help move us all in the direction of better communication capability, please write a post in which you define what you mean by the word “health”, using both a conceptual definition of the term and an operational definition. Then, tell us what you had to do in order to come up with definitions that people could understand with little room of error.
