4.FOLLOW RUBRIC PRECISELY
Please Note:
1. As I said above you are supposed to use my location: Fort Worth, TX 76104 (MANDATORY)
2. Each box for week on must be completed with detailed information.
3. The rubric states: “Locate a community focal/starting point (for example, neighborhood, church, clinic, school, other) in the city or county where you live. Once you select a focal or starting point, you will conduct a survey of the community surrounding the site. Specifically, you will survey a 10-block radius of the facility – 10 blocks north, 10 blocks south, 10 blocks east, and 10 blocks west. If something is not within the area of the community you are surveying (for example, a Hospital), note such and state how far away it is and how people will access it. If you do not see something within the community (for example, homeless people) note that no homeless persons were observed. Additionally, you will survey two community members about their perceptions of the 2 health and 1 safety needs/issues and 2 strengths of their community (Make up the people you interview). ”
4. This assignment must be very very detailed, not broad and generic (you cannot just put yes, no, railroads, and basic one work statements). You will have to use maps, google earth, and research. If you can’t do it, that is fine just cancel the question. Here is a sample I found online of how this needs to be done and how much detail is needed.
5. This is a decent example of what you sould do and the amount of detail. Please view this same: N4465-assignment-weeks-1-3-template-5-19 compress – N4465 Care of Vulnerable Populations COMMUNITY – Studocu

WINDSHIELD SURVEY CONSIDERATIONS
If you do not use this template, there will be a 10- point grade penalty, and you will be required to resubmit within 48 hours, or a zero will be given. In order to do this assignment, you must put aside prior knowledge about your community and gather information as if you were observing places and things for the first time. You will be reporting on only those things you observe through the windshield. Use the information found in the Instruction document to complete this assignment to guide this observation experience.
Use a map of your county to decide what areas you will include in the windshield survey.
Use the attached assignment document to create a list of things to observe.
It is recommended that you request someone else to drive you. This will allow you to focus your attention on what you are observing.
Do not put yourself in danger. If at any point, you feel at risk or threatened, leave the area immediately. Your safety is of utmost importance.
While driving through the various regions, keep detailed notes about what you observe including the different kinds of buildings, businesses, service agencies, and recreational spaces.
Compare and contrast areas by looking at the road conditions, types of housing, people on the streets, rural or urban in nature, etc.
You will complete the tables included in the assignment document with the information that you locate. Your final report should summarize what you find in area you survey.
