The essay question is: Discuss the factors that can lead to the emergence of zoonotic disease in named animal populations. Provide examples of named diseases with relevant animal populations to illustrate your answer.

Instructions

1-   The word limit per question is 700 words. Correct Harvard referencing is but will not contribute to the word count.

2-   Secondly, you need to support your arguments on scientific grounds and back-up your claims with relevant case-studies.

3-   You cannot cover everything! You will have to be selective of your arguments and supporting case studies, and also balance breadth with detail. To excel in this exam, you are expected to show evidence of relevant independent research.

4-   Make sure to:
Firstly, include a clear introduction. This is where you set the scene for your essay and provide essential background. Make sure that the final part of your introduction provides a concise overview of what your essay is addressing.

Secondly, ensure your essays have a clear structure. Each sentence and paragraph should logically flow from one to the next. You can use sub-headings to help structure the main body of your essay.

Thirdly, write in a critical rather than descriptive manner –marks are awarded for additional background reading and clear synthesis of detail with the use of citations.

Fourthly, include a clear conclusion which should provide a concise integration and appraisal of the key points made during the main body of your text – no new information should be introduced here.

Write in the 3rd person and be objective.

Avoid super long sentences and/or overuse of commas!

The factors that Henry’s primary health care provider should consider

Case Study

Henry Brown is a 67- year old American living in the rural central United States. He is prescribed multiple medications for hypertension, depression, diabetes mellitus type 2, and a recent bacterial infection. Henry is not alone. In fact, estimates suggest at least 70% of the U.S. aging population is prescribe multiple medications due to the rapid increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases. This presents a major challenge for our healthcare system. Most medications require consistent adherence to the prescribed regimen for them to achieve therapeutic effect.

Yet it is known that adherence rates remain suboptimal across populations and disease states. Because Henry uses a smartphone, his primary healthcare provider might recommend a mobile app called the Medication Tracker to help him manage his complicated medication regimen. Henry’s primary healthcare provider recognizes apps have the potential to address the specific needs of patients in a manner that is timely, cost-effective, informative, and engaging. This app can be configure to deliver automated, personalized messaging to remind Henry to take his medication; can help Henry reinforce good self-management behaviors; can provide education on his chronic disease; and can provide information about his medication, such as black box warnings, side effects and contraindications.

Discussion Questions

1.      Firstly, describe the factors that Henry’s primary health care provider should consider when selecting an app for him.
2.      Secondly, identify the features most important to facilitate the primary treatment goals of Henry and his primary provider.
3.      Thirdly, describe how Henry should communicate his activities with the app to his primary health care provider.
4.      Fourthly, list some risks for Henry associated with using this app.

Samantha is a natural health practitioner working in her own private practice.  Recently her neighbour and friend Margaret approached her and told her she was suffering from a terminal illness, and asked Samantha to help her with treatment.  Samantha had always liked Margaret and was very keen to help her, and so she agreed.  Samantha would regularly go to Margaret’s house after-hours and provide treatment, as well as help her with cooking and cleaning.  As the weeks progressed, Margaret’s health deteriorated and her son Jack moved in to help with Margaret’s end-of-life care.  Samantha and Jack established a good rapport, and Jack showed
an interest in Samantha’s treatment practices – soon becoming a client himself.  Quite often Samantha would join Jack for a glass of wine and dinner after treating Margaret, and they would stay up late discussing their personal lives.
