The HLTH 380 Week 7 method, step by step

  1. Plan the talk before the slides

    Decide what the audience should know or do at the end, and outline the talk around that. The slides come last.

  2. One idea per slide

    Each slide carries one point, stated in its title. Short lines, readable type, no paragraphs on the slide.

  3. Put the evidence where it is used

    Cite sources on the slides where you use them and list them on a references slide (The tour, the interview and course readings).

  4. Write speaker notes or a script

    Script the talk slide by slide. If the guide asks for voiceover or notes, the analysis lives there.

  5. Rehearse to the time limit

    Record a practice run and time it. Cut slides rather than speeding up; a rushed recording hides the points you worked on.

  6. Check the technical requirements

    Confirm the format the guide asks for (At least 10 slides): slide count, length, audio and visual, and the file or link type Canvas accepts.

A structure for HLTH 380 Week 7 Long-Term Care Facility Project

A topic angle that works

Prepare interview questions on health promotion (activity programs, fall prevention, staffing, family involvement) so the presentation shows the course's focus rather than a building description.

Model paragraph with notes

An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.

HLTH 380 Week 7, sample slide notes on the interview

The administrator explained that the facility reduced falls over the past year by moving to individualized toileting schedules and adding evening activities, since many falls happened when residents got up restless after dinner.1 She described staffing as her biggest challenge, with certified nursing assistant turnover making consistent care harder. That matches national data on long-term care workforce shortages.2

  1. A specific practice.
  2. A challenge in the administrator's words.
  3. Linked to evidence.
