Community engagement

Question Description

I’m working on a nursing writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Community engagement is essential for effectively promoting public health practices. In fact, mobile health clinics are a nice example of the community and public health officials working together to ensure wellbeing (Leibowitz et al., 2021). These clinics are also a great way for senior citizens to get their flu or COVID-19 vaccines (NewsChannel 3-12, 2021, October 21). Do you have a similar service in your community? If so, please explain its effectiveness! If not, how challenging would it be to implement this public health intervention in your community? Watch video below. Support your points with at least one scholarly source.
