My pretty cats! =)

Hi everybody!!

First I want to say: free blog are the best, because it is a instance to write about issues that you consider important.
In this oportunity my post is about my cats! I have two cats: Bianca and Sussi! But really only Bianca is my cat, because Sussi is my cat and of my brother; take care both.

Bianca is the major cat, it is 3 years aproximatly, Bainca is a big animal their weight is 3 to 4 kilos, it is grey, brown and black. Bianca is very glutton it eat their food (one medium cup); and if can it eat the Sussi´s food (other one medium cup) and the Luna´s food (it is the dog of my brother). Sometimes when my mother cooks vegetables Bianca try to eat them, for example it like the broccoli , chard, pumpkin and it loves green beans. I think that my cat called Bianca is a little fat and I try to decrease their weight, but I can´t control my cat when I´m not at my house.

Sussi is the little cat (it is 1 one year), my brother found it out of our house and we started give food to the cat; but one day we saw some girls to mistreat and wet kitten, after that my brother and I decided adopt the kitten and now my brother is responsable of their feeding and health. It is white, grey and brown . It is very playful and disordely. But the bad is that Sussi is glutton too, although it is slim.

I choose write about my cats because I love them and I consider my cats as my "daugthers".
My boyfriend upset me because he hate to Bianca, he call it COW ( for the fat characteristic).

I hope that you enjoy my post!!

See you in class! Cheers!

"Save the last dance"

Hello everybody!

Today my post is about my favourite movie, it is "Save the last dance" (the name of this movie in spanish is "Pasión y baile").

This film is of the romantic drama genre, was written by Duane Adler and directed by Thomas Carter. It was produced by MTV Films and released by Paramount Pictures on January 12, 2001.

The main theme of the film is the teenage interracial relationship between Sara (Julia Stiles) and Derek (Sean Patrick Thomas), where he helps the main character (Sara) to come back to take her ballet classes, that she had left.

The whole story begins when Sara was in an audition to be admitted to study at Julliard (it is a performing arts conservatory) and invited her mother to attend, but the mother in her attempt to arrive on time for the daughter´s presentation suffers a terrible car accident and she dies.
After her mother´s death , Sara should go live with her father and with him she had little communication. He plays the trumpet in a jazz band and lives in a predominantly black neighborhood on Chicago's South Side. At her new high school, Sara is one of only a handful of white girls. She soon befriends Chenille (Kerry Washington), she is the Derek´s sister. Chenille invites to Sara a hip hop club, here Sara knows better to Derek and begin a friendship. As time passes Derek begins to teach hip hop dancing to Sara and and encourages to resume her ballet classes, now they have a romantic relationship.

Their relationship becomes complicated by the envy that generates Sara, for Derek's girlfriend, because he is one of the best students in that school and one of the few who has a good future. Despite this he helps Sara to prepare her contemporary dance audition for Julliard.

The other part of this movie you must see, because is a really good movie!! I like it, because is a mixture of romanticism and dance; and I love the dance in all their aspect.

I hope that you enjoy my post!

See you soon!

"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.

I hope that you enjoy my post!

Prejudice...

In this opportunity my post is about the gender roles in health care!
Actually, in Midwifery exist man and women students, but in the past only women study this career, the same happen with nursing.
The benefit to man midwive is that the women prefer be attended to man, because she think that men are more delicate with her.
The drawbacks to man midwive are mainly psychological , because like in the mayority of the cases the midwive are women, for this they may be teased by their friends, family or others who study health careers.
Another career affected by problems in gender roles may be Nursing, because their courses are formed mostly of women is seen as a career for women.
To reduce the gender problems I can spread that the men in this career are very good partners in the university´s work, in the practices, furthermore is not relevant that a midwive is woman or man, both have the same knowledge.
I think that the gender roles, in developed countries, is not a problem; because the women and men have the same rigths. But in countries little developed the difference between women and men are most evident.

I hope that you enjoy my post!

My mp3!

In this time I prefer writte about my favourite piece of technology, it is the mp3 (music reproductor).

I use the mp3 in various situations:

- When I am going to university either in the subway, to walking or in the bus.

- When I do works that need inspiration works such as the introduction, conclusion, analysis,etc.

- When I want to dance in front of a mirrow.

- Finally when I can not sleep, I listen to music in my bed but with a low volume.

The mp3 that I have actually, I bought in Paris store, because I needed a pendrive-mp3 to save information and listen to music. I paid for this aproximately $24990; two years ago.

I frequently used the mp3, but in the last time I hardly ever used the music reproductor, because occupied many batteries and these are highly polluting.

I like the mp3 because I can listen to music anywhere.

Really is easy to imagine my life without mp3, because there is always the radio and I can listen to music in my house.

I hope that all enjoy my post!!

See you soon!

Midwifery!

When I finished the high school I wanted study Medicine but my score in the PSU was not suficient for my purpose. After that I looked other options related with health area, and found nursing, midwifery and odontology.
Nursing is not a career for my pleasure, I could not studying it.
I liked Odontology, but when I was a little girl, in primary school. Than in the high school I hated physics and in this subject is the most important in this career.
Finally I chose Midwifery, because the courses and subjects were similar to those of Medicine. In that time I thought a career change after giving the PSU again. The last thing did not happen.
Actually I know that Obstetrics is the right career for me, because I imagine working as a midwife, I have a project to study abroad and to improve myself, I thought of making social work to help people through my profession.
Last year I had the opportunity to be present when a midwife attended women in the attention room, the midwife was very nice with the pacients and in that moment I deciced work like midwife.
Three events caused an impact on my:
First-> When I met the midwife in the attention room, because she was very friendly whit me and I could also participate actively in the care. From that moment I wanted to work in consulting room.
Second-> When I talked with a teacher C.F., because she told me that Obstetrics is a profession most associated with happines when bringing a new member in a family.
Third-> When I was in a course called "Educación para la Salud I", because here I was motivated to educate people and they can be participants in their health.

That is all for the moment, see you soon!

My favorite website!!

Really I don´t have a favorite website for the University, but always that I want search something information I´m going to the site: www.uchile.cl/bibliotecas.

This website has different sections, for example: title page, presentation, all faculties at Universidad de Chile, information about undergraduate and postgraduate studies, several research , extension and culture and libraries. Furthermore the page has a clasification about applicants, students, academic, officials and graduates.

With regard to the libraries section, this is organized by information resources where you can find: catalog, digital libary, database, database integrator, electronic journals, chilean journals, Universidad de Chile journals, and others.

The main characteristics are: you can put limits for you search like publication date, in human or animals, language, in male o female, etc.; furthermore It´s a save site and you can send the paper to the mail. This website has information about Medicine, Art, Economy, Law, Architecture, etc.

I often use the site: www.uchile.cl/bibliotecas, every time that I must do a work, especially that the teachers to request confidence bibliography.

I like this website, because I can find various topics and is very fast, also in every research you find an abstracs about of the studies.
