  • In the “Frameworks for Action in Policy and Politics” chapter, examine Box 1-1 (Political Aspects of the Social Determinants of Health) and Figure 1-6 (The Who, What, Where, When, and Why of Nursing’s Policy Influence). Compare these with the story about Lilian Wald’s work in New York City.
  • Reflect on the “what” of Wald’s strategies. In your opinion, which did she use effectively?

  • Discuss at least three competencies/strategies that you have used effectively.
