HSA3104 St Petersburg Evolution on Hypertension Management Paper
As the resources in this module illustrated, health care has changed significantly over the years. For this writing assignment, identify a health issue that has meaning to you, a family member, or friend. Look up the Healthy People 2020 objectives for that health issue. Then consider how that health issue would have been treated differently over the past 150 years (not any older than 1850).

- Introduction and description of health issue, including listing the specific Healthy People 2020 indicator(s) and current information about the rates/percentages as compared to the goal
- Illness treatment/management prior to 1900
- Illness treatment/management around 1950
