Epidemiological methods to the breadth of settings and situations in public health practice

  Apply epidemiological methods to the breadth of settings and situations in public health practice. Compare local rates to other county or state rates for that health problem or issue. Identify the health status and risk factors for different racial or ethnic groups for that specific problem or issue. Evaluate the available resources and the missing resources to address the health problem. Describe available resources, to include programs, facilities, transportation, and educational materials to the selected population within the chosen community and the importance of cultural competence in communicating public health content.
