Title: To analyse the impacts of Covid-19 on human lives in health
and care industry
Abstract
The covid-19 is a serious pandemic issue in the world which affected survives of
human beings. Due to this situation, it increased the death in environment of human
lives. To overwhelmed this problem there is necessity to take correct planning and
strategies such as wear mask, proper health treatment, regular check-up, vaccine, and
sanitization that could benefit to improve and feeling healthy. This proposal is based
on impact of covid -19 on human lives. The aim and objective is been discussed and
several Research methodology is used to develop understanding and collecting

challenges for people to feel safe and happy. It is a situation which occurred in the
form of diseases and people life is affected which increases death rates. The proposal
is formed on analysing impact of pandemic on individuals and care industries. The
report covers aim, objectives, literature review, and methodology that use to develop
knowledge and understanding.
2. Aim and Objectives
Research aims
“The aim of research proposal is to analyse impact of covid-19 on physical health

Research Objectives
 The concept and importance of physical health is determined.
 The problem faced by individuals is identified regarding health and social care

cylinders, beds, instruments & medicines due to increase of infected cases (Mehran,
M.T and et.al., 2021). This pandemic caused economic and social disruption as more

health (Stevano, S and et.al., 2021).
6. Methodology and Methods
It defines to specific process which is used for identify, selecting and information
is analysed in regards to topic. The relation is shown with process that develops
knowledge for conducting research properly in research methodology.
 Research philosophy- It is foundation of study that states set of beliefs on the
research based on which includes positivism, interpretivism and realism
philosophy that can be related to topic and understanding can be developed.
 Research approach- It is explained as process of research which states
assumptions in detail of data collection and interpretation which includes
inductive and deductive approach that is used for executing analysis properly
and information is managed.
 Techniques and procedures- To complete project and managing all function
researcher uses techniques and process in respect to covid-19 which takes use
of quantitative technique for research.
 Research strategy- It is concerned with how investigator of collecting data by
using several methods such as experiment, survey, case study, action research,
grounded theory, and archival research which helps in collect large volume of
data from statistical analysis.
7. Ethical Issues
The ethics in branch of study and moral philosophy which includes defending,
systematizing and functions that helps in research completion. The researchers follow
5

principles and standards for conducting research and information is managed. In
respect, to present research on impact of covid-19 on people, researchers make sure to

based by using several methodologies. The health care comprises of business which
provides medical services, equipments and medical insurance. This research will
benefit the individuals by providing services and treatments.
9. Temporal Plan
Time scale for Research
Time scale- The time scale is important for every project or task as it states the
chronological order for the events that is planned to do particular job. For every
person it is necessary to have an understanding regarding time & project that shows
fixed period in the required task for completion. In respect to present research, the
researchers needs understanding of goals and allocates among participants which
