HEALTH ADVOCACY/IEC regarding Anatomy and Physiology of Urinary System at San Vicente Elementary School

LEARNINGS/INSIGHTS

As our time at the Rural Health Unit Bato ends, I find myself astonished at how quickly this year flew by. I learned to love public health, because I love the satisfaction of working to improve health and enable the community to help themselves. Going in the remote area and conducting health teaching is one of the most satisfying things I've ever done. I love being able to help people while having adventure and learning lots of new skills at the same time. This job makes me feel useful and part of something special. Throughout this one year experience, I was able to open my eyes to not only a new way

    Kate’s school follows a National Curriculum by providing science and Personal, Social and Health Educations (PSHE) classes. Lakshmi is taught about nutrition, exercise and personal hygiene during her science classes. Health education is an effective intervention because it provides children with the knowledge they need about themselves, their bodies and their health needs. In Lakshmi’s case she’s provided with essential immunisations and has her growth monitored, she’s also taught the benefits of breastfeeding and the importance of clean drinking water. For Kate, the fact that she has the use of a drop in centre to receive advice and guidance on issues such as sexual health and drugs awareness will hopefully shape her decisions as a young adult towards better health choices in the future.…

The government decided to fund a health centre situated within the neighbourhood so residents could have access to health service that were not there before for example; dentists, GP’s, midwives etc. The midwives started having group sessions, this not only helped educate first-time mothers but also helped people to socialise with their peers . Residents were encouraged to support each other and spread their own knowledge. There is also a community run Tai-Chi class which is supported by the medical as GP’s refer patients to the class.…

    When I first started training to be a nurse, my most compelling reason for peruse in the career was to care for the sick. Now that I am approaching the end of my three years of training my rationale has changed, I now want to empower patients in regards to their own health, supporting families in need, care for the ‘sick’ child and make a difference amongst as many people as I can.…

    My main motivation for taking this course is from my Bridging Disciplines Certificate in Social Inequality, Health and Policy. I became involved in this program because of a growing interest in health disparities and health care system differences. As a pre-med biology major, I had not had a lot of exposure to the non-scientific side of medicine and health in general. However, after traveling to Peru for a month to do medical volunteer work and taking a sociology course that discussed social determinants of health, I came to realize that there is a connection between health and social circumstances that is impossible to ignore. This led me to an interest in the factors that create a person’s social circumstances, which…

    My initial motivation was to study medicine. However, this novelty of an idea wore off as I have learned that the road to success and pursuit of happiness in life is not necessarily a straight one. This has encouraged me to follow my heart no matter how daunting the journey can be. William James once said “the greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being has the power to alter his life by his attitude”. It is deeply rooted in this philosophy that I desire to become a physician assistant (PA) where I hope to provide quality healthcare to the underprivileged, an area of medicine, which I have noticed to be dramatically underserved.…

    Such altruistic life experiences can become addicting, and I had realized that I wanted to spend the rest of my life continuing this virtuous cycle. My interest in Internal Medicine quickly became evident when I found a common ground between my passion in community service and a rewarding career in medicine. Ever since I learnt about Doctors Without Borders, I knew that alleviating someone's pain and saving human lives was the best way I could make a difference in society. My role as an Internist would not only be stimulating but will also prove to be valuable in the community, as it would allow me to build long-term relationships and provide a continuity in the health-care of my patients; a privilege I strive for.…

    Much has happened since I graduated from the School of Public Health in 1986. I achieved my dream of working in a hospital setting when I secured my first job as a Management Accountant at Moses Cone Hospital in Greensboro. There I especially enjoyed developing relationships with managers from many departments as I assisted them with financial reports and budget information. Although I aspired to have enough experience one day to be eligible for an administrative role in a clinical area, my job provided a great opportunity to learn about the inner workings of the…

    There has been a growing concern that health sector needs a huge attention today, not only from government, citizen, but also from many discipline of health care practices. In the recent year, in the United States which is a superpower country, the delivery of human services is still to be a constant puzzle for policy makers, practitioners, and academics (Mayhew, 2012). Health care delivery (including preventive and supportive care) in this country is challenged by demands of access, safety, quality, and cost (Giberson, et. al., 2011). Even though, many years before, these health care issues has been arised as Wilson D.E. stated that the year 1994 was one of great health care non-reform, although national legislation was enacted, states began to seek ways to deal seriously with the issues, primarily the cost, but also the quality of care (Institute of Medicine 25th Anniversary Symposium, 1996). The same thing is happened in the developing country, even worse. Such as in Indonesia, despite solid economic growth in recent years that has raised millions from poverty, Indonesia faces numerous healthcare challenges, from maternal mortality to vector-borne diseases such as malaria to malnutrition, and degenerative diseases associated with a population that is both ageing and living an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. (The Economist Intelligence Unit, 2010). Besides that, most of population in this country lives in rural areas making the delivery of health care services difficult, a system of community health centres is being developed in response to the needs of the rural community (Jacobalis S., 1989). This means that health care matter is still unresolved.…

    When I started my internship at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC), which lies in the foothills of snow capped Mount Kilimanjaro in Moshi, Tanzania, I developed my clinical hands-on experience. I helped diagnose and manage a wide variety of acute and chronic medical conditions, from the very common to unusual and complicated cases. I embraced every opportunity not only for patient care, but also the development of my clinical problem solving skills as well as presentation. As days went by, learning became easier. while discussing cases with my colleagues, residents and attending, I came to understand that it is impractical to know everything in medicine, but that built my confidence to improve my basic steps in the management of…
