demographic transition theory became the dominant theory of population growth. Based on observed trends in Western European societies‚ it argues that populations go through three stages in their transition to a modern pattern. Stage one (pre transition) is characterized by low or no growth‚ and high fertility is counterbalanced by high mortality. In Stage Two (the stage of transition)‚ mortality rates begin to decline‚ and the population grows at a rapid pace. By the end of this stage‚ fertility has

Europe and Russia have experienced population declines over the last couple of decades. The birth rate decline has led Europe to what today is an aging population. Although a lower birthrate is not necessarily a bad thing‚ this creates an uneven population. Everything in nature is good in moderation and when it comes to nature and humans‚ homeostasis is key. If you have the baby boomer population all aging at the same time and a low birthrate‚ this can negatively affect Europe and Russia socially

Vulnerable Populations in Current Events NUR/440 January 24‚ 2010 Vulnerable Populations in Current Events Smith‚ Tingle‚ and Twiss (2010) estimate in the year 2030‚ 20% of all Americans will be elderly adults.

As this vulnerable population continues to age‚ they often find it difficult to ask for help‚ which further increases the barriers they must overcome. Defining a Vulnerable

RISK AND POPULATION STRATEGIES FOR PREVENTIVE HEALTH WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF 21ST CENTURY AUSTRALIA. INTRODUCTION The concept of high risk and population strategies for preventative health was first introduced by Geoffrey Rose in his 1985 paper “Sick Individuals and Sick Populations” (Rose 2001). High risk strategy involves the identification of individuals who are more likely to get a disease and then providing treatment or preventative measures‚ while population strategies target population risk
