Health promotion and caring: program planning for families and communities. Planning, monitoring, and evaluating community health programs are fundamental processes used by chns as they work in partnership with the community. The chnac (2008) describe how nurses are expected to plan new programs, redesign existing services, monitor the implementation of programs, and evaluate their impact. Nurses often make important contributions to these processes with the substantial involvement of community representatives, key stakeholders from a variety of services sectors, and colleagues from multiple disciplines. A program is a series of activities supported by a group of resources intended to achieve specific outcomes (goals/objectives) among particular target groups. Consider possible solutions or actions to address the problem. Use the results to modify the program or inform decisions about other programs. Used extensively in many public health agencies in canada. Helps to integrate program planning and evaluation. Asks the questions: what is the program suppose to do, with whom, and why? .
