...Phoenix This paper is in reference to case study 10. This paper will develop one process evaluation measure and one outcome evaluation measure to display the Greenby Community Mental Health Center’s effectiveness and efficiency. This paper will also discuss the scope and purpose of the process evaluation measure and outcome evaluation measure and how they influence the design. The Greenby Community Mental Health Center process evaluation measure suggests the consultation and education department needs to implement the address of the real questionable issue within the organization, and to evaluate the programs being offered through the organization. The questionable issue at the center involves the discontinuance of the consultation and education departments. We understand the organization is facing an issue in regard to required service programs. We also understand the community mental health center has suggested as long as there is a director available the proposed suggestion will work, but doing so will take away workshops that have been instrumental to the program consumers. The implemented design includes dedicating a percentage of each professionals work towards Consultation and Education (Lewis, p. 242). A process evaluation is aimed at enhancing a current program by means of a formative analysis. It can be done anytime to describe and study the conceptualization, planning and implementation of a particular program. A key note about a process evaluation is that it isn't...

...a role every nurse must participate in to promote, maintain, and restore health among a community. To accomplish such requires community members receive and have a practical understanding of health-related information (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2008). One method to accomplish such is to develop a health educational plan. The purpose of this paper is to create a health education plan based upon information collected from a windshield survey and Friedman family assessment conducted by a nurse in the community of Palmdale, California. Areas that will be discussed include, a description of the educational need based upon assessment findings, educational goals and objectives, educational methods that will be used to implement the health educational plan, and the methods applied to evaluate the educator and process used in the development and implementation of the health education plan. Identification of a Health Educational Need In conducting a windshield survey and Friedman family assessment, the nurse identified multiple educational needs. The priority educational need in common and identified among both the family and the community of Palmdale, California is the need for education on the maintenance of chronic illnesses. Determining what chronic illness to focus on in terms of development of the health educational plan however, presented more of a challenge. When observing the community it was identified that multiple individuals had oxygen tanks providing evidence of chronic...

The cut back in funding has caused the organization to look at possibly doing away with their consultation and education department. This paper will describe at least one process evaluation measure and at least one outcome evaluation measure that could be suggested for the Consultation and Education Department at Greenby Community Mental Health Center to display the program effectiveness and efficiency.

...Program Planning and Evaluation Paper Axia College Program Planning and Evaluation Paper The Santa Rosa Philharmonic Youth Symphony (SRPYS) is an organization which supports young people who love music, encourages quality musicianship, and advanced leadership skills through their program. Local elementary and middle schools have had to cut the music programs from their curriculum; parents, students, and community members are concerned that this lack of support from the education community will discourage talented individuals. SRPYS is an organization which has developed plans to educate and advance the skills of young musicians. Their program planning and evaluation techniques are established, but always open to change as the students and musical tastes vary from year to year. Program planning and evaluation are two different processes in any human services agency, but are related to each other in many ways. Program planning is a process through activities or interventions which address and facilitate changes in a specific problem or problems. (Terao & Yuen, 2003) Through this planning, new programs can be implemented which can more appropriately address the problem or add new aspects to an existing program. Program evaluation provides information about how well a program is meeting the needs of its clientele, staff, the community, and its mission. Ongoing assessments allow for changes which need to be made as participants change, needs change, or there are better ways...

...Program Planning and Evaluation Paper Holly Regan HSM/270 May 25, 2014 Fedder Williams Program Planning and Evaluation Paper In comparison, each of the two components; program planning and program evaluation are related in the way that each is a theory based and goal-oriented activity. A program is a permanent and inseparable element of the planning process intended to achieve specific future goals. The methodical, yet necessary process of planning is important in designing programs to become an effective and efficient tool for human service organizations in conjunction with a systematic approach to descriptive research for meeting each presented goal. Descriptive research is designed to service clients, describe program characteristics, and other elements. It describes the use of facilities, community resources and other resources as well. It is also designed to study the relationship of association among various factors or variables and take into account the solicited views of a social issue or problem in program or policy design/planning process. Descriptive research provides a description of an observable fact or event or the relationships between two or more observable facts or events. Assessments vary categorically, but they can assess nearly everything and to the nth degree. Social programs are no different as assessments are utilized to produce data that is crucial for programs turning negative outcomes into positive outcomes. An assessment of needs plays...

...The Greenby Community Mental Health has a Center Consultation and Education Department (C and E Department), and because of insufficient cliental it is about to lose its funding, and needs to come up with a plan to show the board of directors that its program is indeed useful. The C and E department is useful to many individuals, and helps the other programs gain new clients, but the C and E Department have to show evidence to the board that there is a link by showing proof of this. C and E department needs to utilize a process evaluation and an outcome evaluation, which will show that the programs it has, does generate clients for the other programs within Greenby. The paper will show one process evaluation measure, and one outcome evaluation measure that will show the efficiency and effectiveness of Greenby’s C and E Department. The paper will also discuss challenges and issues of these measures. Process Evaluation According to Lewis, Packard, and Lewis the “Process evaluation involves assessing agency activities to determine whether programs are operating in accordance with plans and expectations,” the executive director of Greenby thinks cutting the C and E program is the answer but having the proof that C and E program is actually beneficial to Greenby it is necessary to do a formative evaluation will show the success of the C and E programs. This process will make it easier to show the success, and compare them to the objectives showing what services have been given...
