Overview
You will complete five program critique assignments in the course to support your work as you prepare for your final project. These assignments ask that you critique a program described within an identified article located in the module’s resources. These articles were chosen because they relate to the module’s topics and demonstrate some common problems that programs encounter. In each assignment, you will have the opportunity to critique certain program components, such as resources, activities, outcome measures, use of feedback loops, assumptions, and external barriers. Once planners have identified the details for each of the program components, they must step back and assess how those components can best operate within the program’s environment. That involves considering concepts such as cultural competency, systems thinking, ethical practice, and others. You will focus on these different concepts, in turn, through the program critiques. As you develop your program critique skills, you will be asked to identify areas that could be or need to be improved and offer recommendations.
In this assignment, you will critique a health or healthcare program using the program critique reading in the Resources section of this module. The reading portrays example program decision-making relevant to module content. The selected program critique reading is the required reading for this assignment. For this assignment, you will identify the activities used to achieve cultural competence. Then, you will explain whether the given program satisfies the four key ethical principles. Finally, you will describe additional activities that would help ensure the program has met the principles of social justice.
This assignment will help you analyze how your program is expected to address cultural competence and satisfy key ethical and social justice principles. It will also ask you to consider the importance of health literacy when interacting with targeted populations. You will use findings from this assignment to improve your strategy to address cultural competence in your program.
Prompt
Write a program critique that examines a health or healthcare program designed to improve self-management for individuals living with chronic disease. As you develop your critique, assess the program’s design to achieve cultural competence. Determine if each of the four key ethical principles were satisfied and if the principles of social justice were considered.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Social Justice Principles: Determine whether the program considered principles of social justice, providing examples to support your claims. Consider the following questions to guide your response:
Which principles of social justice were met and which weren’t? Justify your rationale.
What activities would you add to improve this aspect of the program?
Key Ethical Principles: Explain whether the program satisfied the four key ethical principles required of program designs, providing examples to support your claims. Consider the following questions to guide your response:
Why is designing and evaluating a program in an ethical manner important?
What improvements would you suggest for this program to ensure it adheres to ethical principles?
Cultural Competence: Determine whether the program adequately addressed cultural competence, explaining your rationale. Consider the following questions to guide your response:
What additional activities would you suggest to address cultural competence in the given program?
Do you believe the program’s cultural competence activities impacted the outcomes? Why or why not?
Summary and Recommendations: Summarize your findings from the program analysis and share your recommendations to improve the consideration of cultural competence, social justice, and ethical principles. Consider the following question to guide your response:
What would you do differently to ensure the given program satisfies key ethical and social justice principles and addresses cultural competency?
Note that all the claims in your deliverable should be evidence based.

Background 
A Profile in Excellence 
People often hear the stories of what goes wrong in health care, medical error tragedies, and examples of how organizations have failed their patients. There is much to learn, however, from those who do a great job of taking care of their patients, meeting their needs, and going beyond their expectations. 
Instructions 
Using all that you have learned from this course, you will do the following: 
Research Paper  
Identify a health care organization that is known for their high quality of care, service, and safety.
Write a paper that addresses: 
An overview of the organization, a description of what care or services they are known for, and the data that is available to evidence the success of their quality/patient safety efforts.
Identify the top four practices in the organization that have contributed to their creation of a “culture of excellence.”  A description should be provided for each of these practices with examples for how they have contributed to the organization’s success.
Identify the one practice that you believe is most valuable to the success of the organization, which you would like to experience in your own organization or would like to implement as a future health care leader.
Lastly, identify the lessons you have learned, from a leadership standpoint, from your research.
