"an apple a day keep the doctor away"


Hello everybody! Today mi post is about the prevention and education in three different levels... individuals, families and the community. First is important to mencioned the prevention´s mean: "Prevention are all the actions and techniques to achieve that people don´t sick or that sick people will not aggravate their situation". Furthermore the prevention can be primordial, primary, secondary and tertiary.
The primordial prevention:
Prevent the emergence and consolidation of patterns of social, economic and cultural development is known to contribute to raising the risk of disease.
The primary prevention:
decrease the incidence of disease by controlling causes and risk factors.
The secondary prevention:
Cure patients and reduce the most serious consequences of the disease through early diagnosis and prompt treatment.
The tertiary prevention:
Reduces progression or complications of established disease. Also is important for therapy and social rehabilitation of sick people.
Prevention, in any level, is important because it is always best to avoid the disease or exposure to risk factors that may cause a deterioration in our health, to be sick and feel physically and psychologically bad about it. We as health professionals have a major role in the prevention of disease in the general population, and the best way to achieve this is through education.
How to prevent at the individual level? We like health professional could to give information about healthy lifestyles query times of our patients, delivering leaflets on nutrition, food and sports, in due course lead to specialists according to the risk of the user, etc.
How to prevent at the family level? We like health professional could
provide holistic care based on a health team that not only focus on the health of the person they care for the health of the family of the user, educate the mother who is in charge in most cases of family nutrition, etc.
How to prevent at the community level? We like health professional could
to promote public policies that intended to increase advertising on healthy lifestyles on television, radio, internet, etc.
We as Midwives
can to promote the prevention during antenatal care, by workshops at the level of health service which is part of the control of the users to attend these, to educational interventions in communities with less access to health center, organize workshops or lectures at colleges and high schools about reproductive health, etc.
