Marginalized populations

      Respond to the following:   Marginalized populations, including those living near or below the poverty level, ethnic minorities, and other underrepresented identities and groups, are always at the greatest risk of suffering from debilitating or life-changing health problems due to lack of resources and power to influence their circumstances. As an administrator in health care, this reality is one that you will intersect with often in your work. How will your service address a health care need for a marginalized population, and how will they have access to this service?  

Sample Solution

   

As an administrator in health care, I am committed to addressing the health care needs of marginalized populations. I believe that everyone deserves access to quality, affordable health care, regardless of their income, race, ethnicity, or other social factors.

One way that I will address the health care needs of marginalized populations is by providing free or low-cost health care services. I will do this by partnering with community organizations and non-profit groups that serve these populations. I will also work to secure funding from government and philanthropic sources.

      Another way that I will address the health care needs of marginalized populations is by making health care services more accessible. I will do this by offering convenient hours and locations, and by providing transportation assistance to those who need it. I will also work to provide culturally appropriate care and to eliminate language barriers. Here is a specific example of a service that I would implement to address a health care need for a marginalized population: Service: Mobile health clinic Population served: Low-income families living in rural areas Need: Access to primary care services Description: The mobile health clinic would be a van or trailer that would travel to rural areas on a regular schedule to provide basic health care services, such as checkups, immunizations, and treatment for minor illnesses. The clinic would be staffed by a doctor, nurse, and other health care professionals. Access: The mobile health clinic would be free or low-cost for patients. The clinic would also accept Medicaid and Medicare. I believe that this service would help to address the health care needs of low-income families living in rural areas. These families often face barriers to accessing health care services, such as lack of transportation and long distances to travel to the nearest clinic or hospital. The mobile health clinic would eliminate these barriers by bringing health care services directly to their communities. In addition to providing free or low-cost and accessible health care services, I will also work to empower marginalized populations to advocate for their own health. I will do this by providing education and training on health issues, and by helping them to connect with other resources and support services. I believe that everyone deserves to live a healthy life. By addressing the health care needs of marginalized populations, I can help to create a more just and equitable society.
