Your Guide to Writing Better Health Essays...

Understanding What is Being Asked of You

One of the first things you must do in the process of writing a successful health essay is to make sure you fully understand what the essay question is asking you to do. There are key terms that you should look out for which will act as signposts to how you should construct your response to the essay question.

For example, if asked to evaluate the impact of the Health and Social Care Act upon the patient experience, it is important that you provide a critique of the strengths and weaknesses of the outcomes of the implementation of the Act.

If required to discuss the statement 'the Health and Social Care Act has been ineffective in improving patient outcomes' then you are required to decide whether or not you agree with this statement, and present your arguments accordingly.

Understanding what you are being asked to do will not only enable the structuring of your essay but will also demonstrate the directions in which you should take your reading in order to address the health essay question effectively.

Researching Your Health Essay

Most essays that achieve the highest marks tend to primarily source research articles from peer-review journals, ensuring that your research directly relates to the topic of your health essay. Furthermore, disseminating research findings from journal articles, which are the platform at which scientific debates occur, is a highly valuable skill to learn and an effective method for you to demonstrate your understanding of the essay subject.

As You Can Imagine...

Chances are that you'll spend an enormous amount of time conducting this level of research before you've even written a single word! So if you find yourself getting stressed about a fast approaching deadline because it seems to be taking you forever to source relevant literature and information or you're struggling with the sheer volume of books, journals and course materials that you need to assess... then we can help!

Structural Requirements

Although each essay question will be different throughout your higher education experience, successful responses will follow the same structural basis each time. Writing successful health essays is dependant upon understanding the basic structural rules for essay writing.

Each essay you write should begin with an Introduction which sums up how you plan to respond to the question and outlines what course your arguments will follow. This excerpt from Power, Lake & Cole below is a good example:

'This paper reviews child and adolescent adiposity measures and associated long-term health risks. The first section argues that anthropometric measures are practical for large scale epidemiological studies, particularly the body mass index. Limitations of this and other measures are presented. The second section summarises the evidence on the relationship between child and adolescent and adult adiposity.'

Following on from this the Main Body of the text, or Discussion, will follow the plan that has been set out in the introduction. Make sure that your paragraphs are all linked up so that they naturally flow from one to the next and that all your arguments should be logically and coherently presented.

You've Started... But Can't Finish!

If you're struggling to fully understand your subject matter or worried that your essay is losing its direction because you're finding it hard to communicate your ideas effectively into your discussion or perhaps have a multiple part essay question and you're having trouble answering just one part of it, then we can help!

Just because we are an essay writing service, it doesn't mean we have to provide the whole essay! Let our fully qualified nursing researchers help you out where you need it most.

For instance, if you don't understand one aspect of your essay question just order a 1000 words on this particular subject area and our researchers will write you an original piece that has been fully referenced (if you want references that is!) and tailored to answering your specific needs. It's then a simple job for you to re-work it and incorporate it into your own essay discussion.

By ordering an essay outline you'll receive an essay structure, based entirely upon your question, that you can use to develop your own essay, you'll even get suggested reading material to further help with your subject area.

The Conclusion

Subsequent to the presentation of your arguments in the text's Main Body, the Conclusion should effectively sum up what you have presented in your essay and as with the introduction your conclusion should have a strong impact and leave the marker with no doubt as to whether you have sufficiently answered the original health essay question.

In your conclusion provide informed opinions about the information, arguments and facts that you submitted within the discussion. It is very important to ensure that they all specifically address the essay question and that you keep a tight focus so don't range beyond that which you've presented in the text of your arguments.

In Summary

It is important that your essay adheres to the basic formatting structures as set out by your higher education establishment. Failure to adhere to these very basic guidelines will result in a poor grade for your health essay.

Furthermore, the failure to recognise these requirements will indicate that your work is sloppy and will provide a bad impression to the person marking the work. This is the last thing you want to do!

Are You Confident Your Essay Meets It's Marking Criteria?

If you are worried about your potential essay grade because you feel like you're not getting enough writing support from your university, perhaps you're a foreign student trying to cope with the English language or you're generally struggling to manage your course - then you will especially benefit from the extra one-on-one tuition that our essay assessment, critiquing and marking service can give you.

Our highly qualified Assessment Officers will critique your work for spelling, grammar usage, essay structure, referencing techniques, your level of understanding of the original essay question and determine its probable grade upon submission to your university.

But most importantly, they will help you to identify where you're going wrong so you'll know how to write better health essays in the future.

Referencing

Whenever you're writing a health essay, it is always vital that you refer to the sources that you used to formulate your arguments. This must be done both in the text and in the reference section at the end.

The purpose of referencing is to allow you to demonstrate to the marker the wide range of research that you've conducted and the source of the information you obtained. It is also important to acknowledge that the use of referencing is extremely influential to the overall mark of your health essay, therefore, accuracy is essential in this section.
