The Socioecological Model of Health depicts health as being influenced by factors at multiple levels, from the intrapersonal/individual through to policies/systems, requiring interventions at each of the four levels to be most effective. The four levels are:
1) Intrapersonal/Individual
2) Interpersonal
3) Settings (organisation and community level)
4) Policy and systems
Task: You are a consultant nutritionist working alongside a multidisciplinary allied health team which includes a social worker, physiotherapist and occupational therapist at Bill’s local council. Using the Socioecological Model of Health, identify and explain two potential challenges/factors and propose and explain two strategies/interventions at each of the four levels that influence Bill’s nutrition, access to healthy food, meal preparation habits, and overall well-being:
1) Intrapersonal/Individual
2) Interpersonal
3) Settings (organisation and community level)
4) Policy and systems
For each level, provide:
· Two challenges/factors (explained).
· Two strategies/interventions (explained).
2 marks for each explained challenge/factor and 2 marks for each explained strategy/intervention under each of the four levels. (16 marks total).
