EHA Talking Circle

Community health assessments (CHA) are used to identify key health needs and issues through systematic, comprehensive data collection, and analysis. Commonly these assessments focus on disease and injuries causes the most health risk in the community of focus. Determinants of health are also included in a CHA. These determinants may include environmental factors. However the inclusion of a full environmental assessment in a CHA is very uncommon. Despite the potential of CHAs to assess cumulative impacts, limited environmental data weakens their effectiveness. The Lumbee Tribe recently conducted a Tribal Health Assessment and it included only one question about environmental quality. This research aims to identify what should be included in a future Tribal Environmental Health Assessment.

An Analysis of Cultural Competence in CPR Instruction

In a descriptive study, we intend to explore the comparative efficacy of culturally tailored CPR training, with five components: language variations, cultural adaptations, sex/age-specific instruction, socioeconomic adaptations, and consideration of cultural learning styles. By examining these components, we seek to identify the most effective and culturally sensitive approaches to CPR education. The primary goal is to develop a culturally tailored CPR training curriculum that raises confidence levels of individuals in performing bystander CPR, thus increasing bystander CPR rates and the likelihood of positive cardiac arrest outcomes.
