Public Health Policy

Public Health Policy and Decision Making CASE STUDY 3 INSTRUCTIONSIf you remember from your textbook, the landscape section of a health policy analysis “provides the overall context for analysis by identifying key stakeholders and the factors that must be considered when analyzing the problem.” This is a critically important part of analyzing policy, so we focus on this in this specific case study.1. First, provide a problem statement (phrased as a question) that sets the stage for your analysis, as it is critically important in a policy analysis and should be clearly articulated within the first couple of paragraphs. Provide a brief background on this problem for the client/reader, defining and detailing the key elements and issues of the problem to set the stage for your landscape.2. Develop a landscape section for home versus hospital births utilizing all factors (political, social, economic, practical, legal, and quality of care) listed in Box 14-1 of the textbook. In your narrative, please address all questions/concerns in Box 14-1.• Save your paper as a word document in the following format: last name, assignment. I would save my assignment as Staley_CaseStudy3.doc.• Case study should be Arial, Calibri, Cambria or Times New Roman font, size 12pt, double-spaced, with 1 inch margins.• All sources/references cited within text per APA style, as well as with a separate reference page per APA style. Be sure to use and cite the video for the case study- 2008 The Business of Being Born.• The length of your response for each Case Study is 2-4 pages (double-spaced). Cover and reference pages do not count towards the page requirements. Please note the page requirements- no less than two, no more than four. 1 ¾ pages does not meet the minimum requirements. Do not place your name, course title, assignment name, etc. in the body of your text. Use a cover page for these elements that is not part of the page length requirements.• This case study sets the stage for the beginning of a policy analysis, so it is like a paper in some respects. Lay out your Problem Statement, Background, and Landscape as formal sections.
