I. INTRODUCTION

According to World health Organization, “Health is a state of complete

physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease.” It

is considered to be a goal for public health in general is important to every

individual.

Community is a common group of people sharing common geographic

boundaries and/or common values and interests. (Maglaya, 2005)

Community Diagnosis is a process in which a team of students works with

a designated community to identify its strengths, weaknesses, overall needs, and

future directions for promoting health and well-being. In doing this process, our

clinical instructor accompanied us, BSN -3H, for initial introduction to the

community and helps us in gathering information about its surroundings and

social environment.

We conducted a survey to one hundred forty two families of Barangay

Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan. And reviewed various data and evaluated resources

to identify the areas of concern that affects the health of the residents.

Each pair of student was assigned to a poster family to be able to get

more information. Through our stay we are able to interact with the family and

gather some information on by its Demographic, Socio-economic, Cultural,

Environmental, and Health- Related and Political variables of barangay.

As soon as health problems were identified from the data sources, we

made certain interventions and prioritized. This document provides a description

on community diagnosis process and outcomes for Barangay Carillo.

b. History
Barangay Carillo was then just part of Brgy. Iba., but in April 25, 1969, the
“Sangguniang Baranggay appealed for a reform”that will let to people have their
own barangay and on Septmember 30, 1975 it was amended. Barangay Carillo
was then mandated. The first barangay captain of Carillo was Mr. Joaquin
Gonzalvo. Followed by Mr. Isidro Manolo, from 1971- 1996. Then Mrs. Marivic
Manolo, 1997-2002. And Ms. Flavia Santiago from 2002 up to the present.

Carillo came from the word “Sigarilo”, referring to a tree of which they call
“Puno Pangkulot”. Barangay Carillo is surrounded by many natural resources. It
was also surrounded by ponds and rivers where fishermen catch a lot of fish and
sell it to the market. Also, they plant trees, vegetables and fruits and when
harvested they also sell it. Most of the people in Barangay Carillo were farmers,
fishermen and gardeners.

The 7 “puroks”in Barangay Carillo have their own meaning. These were:
Purok 1: Poblacion
Purok 2: Bisita
Purok 3: Lakbangan
Purok 4: Dike
Purok 5: Pulo
Purok 6: Sapang bagbag
Purok 7: Sapang munti

The chapel that is located in Purok 2 in front of the Baranggay Hall was
donated by the family of Mr. Antonio Baustista and their patron saint is Virgin of
Sto. Rosario. At first their school was only a primaray school but on September
2004 it became Carillo Elementary School.

Barangay Carillo is a quiet place governed by their Barangay Captain, Ms.

Flavia Santiago with the help of the Barangay Tanod of Carillo.

50 years citizen in Barangay Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan. This is due to their
ancestors’ that resides there for a long period of time and continue to lived most
probably because they mostly eat mixed food (fish, meat, vegetable alternatively)

(3.56%) are 6-10 years old, 23 (3.14%) are 1-5 years old.

Analysis

As shown in the graph, the highest group that dominates the Barangay
Carillo is the adolescent age, varies from 16-20 years old. Young population
means lesser human resources for employment, community improvement or
other jobs that needs manpower, adequate knowledge and skills which younger
people cannot achieve because of their young age. But as Erickson believed the
new interpersonal dimension that emerges during adolescence is a sense of
identity versus role confusion. To achieve this, adolescents must bring together
everything they have learned about the themselves as a son or daughter, an
athlete, a friend, a fast food coo, a student, a scout and so on, and integrate
theses different images into a whole, that make sense. If adolescents can not do
so, they are left with role confusion that is they are left unsure of what kind of
person they can become. Some adolescents seek a negative identity, being
identified as drug abuser or runaway may be preferable to having no identity at
all. In connection with this to our graph, it signifies the importance of achieving
identity in adolescent stage, because being identified might bring you to a bright
future, which may help you and your community a positive outcome. The
community will have a more productive population. Young age group may be of
great help in succeeding years when their age progresses in order to improve
and develop the community in general.

Interpretation
The Table Shows that out of 731, 361 or 49.38% are single, 345 or
40.36% are married, 16 or 2.19% are Widowed, and 9 or 1.23% are Separated.

Analysis
Most of the people surveyed at Barangay Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan are
single with 49.38 % because most are children and adolescents. Another factor
also is the awareness of the citizens in Carillo, for the consequences after
marriage in consideration to the financial crisis that country Philippines is now
going through (The Effects of the Asian Financial Crisis on the
Philippines,www.eadn.org) that is why it has the highest percentage.
The third reason is that most of the citizens in Brgy.Carillo, Hagonoy,
Bulacan are unemployed, through these, married life will not suffice (Erikson, E.
1963). The awareness of the charge after having married life is now being
dominated all over the world and practicality outstands the present.
Here in our country, matrimony is an essential part of completing the
seven sacred sacraments wherein Catholicism is dominion in nature as also the
result of the survey done in Brgy. Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan, wherein, 93.04%
are Catholics. But, matrimony became the last thing for the new generation. At
present, there are lots of cases of early pregnancy and the number continues to
rise. And because the aforementioned pregnancies are unplanned the
relationships behind it vanished and the result is single parenthood.

Analysis
Majority of the people living in Barangay Carrillo are Roman Catholic. The
Catholic is the religion preference of the Brgy. Carillo. It is inherent of their families
closed devotion to one God all through the generations as imposed by the
Spaniards colonization along ago in the history. But then some of them evolve and
opened their self for a change and for some it signifies openness and spiritual
growth as elucidated by the others, that’s why there are some appeared to have a
different preferred religion.

Health Implication
“Religion has become one of the most important, prevalent and highly
promising areas of transcultural nursing. People have varied depth and faith about
their health according to knowledge and practices on their religion’s belief”.
(Madeline Leininggers)

Interpretation
As shown in the table, we can see that among the given choices, majority
of the community people recognize the Barangay Captain as a person of
influence and power. The people assume the authority of the Kapitana for solving
conflicts in the barangay, with a percentage of 67.6%, 96 out of 142 families
agreed in the supremacy of the barangay Captain as a leader of authority,
followed by seeking guidance amongst family members with a total of 25 family
or 17.6%, next is that of the council men with 9.15% comprised of 13 families and
lastly is that the community people considers the elders to be the least
recognized leaders to be asked when conflicts arise, with a percentage of 5.6%
or 8 families.

Analysis
The leading recognized leader as perceived by the community people is The
Barangay Captain (67.6%), this is due to that most of the conflicts arising in the
barangay is usually brought in the barangay wherein kapitana Flavia Santiago
resolves those conflicts, also taking note that the barangay hall is located in the
center of the barangay wherein it makes it more accessible to the community
people.

actively participate in community traditions, such as celebrating fiesta, 120 out of
142 families were surveyed to be active in celebrating barangay fiesta while 22 or
15.5% of the total surveyed families were not active in participating in community
traditions.

Analysis
We can infer that majority of the community people still values the importance
of celebrating fiesta’s, maintaining community involvement and participation
promoting a healthy social interaction between the barangay and people, and
people to people interactions. The figure that corresponds to the population who
were surveyed not to participate in such events are due to financial stability and
practices.

families surveyed that they are aware of it or 80.9% of the surveyed families said
that they were aware, while a minority of 27 families or 19.1% surveyed families
that they were not.

Analysis

programs are well perceived by the community and we can say that the
programs are well utilized based on the percentage of people gone aware of
those programs, this only show the effectiveness of the programs as well as the
healthy communication existing between the barangay health center and the
community people.

 28

Analysis
Based on the survey done at Barangay Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan, most of
the families monthly income falls to less that 5,000. Different factor can affect
their income such as the age, educational attainment, and the location of their
community. In terms of age, most of the respondents are in the age bracket of 6
– 10 years old where they are dependent to their parents. Secondly, the
educational attainment where most of the respondents are high school graduate
where they can’t find good job that are suitable for their needs. Lastly is the
location of the community, the Barangay Carillo are located at rural area which is
less commercialized than in urban area.

Health Implication
According to Gabay, Remotin, and Uy, (2008), a person’s income is one of
the factors in availing health services needed by one’s body. A person who has a
lower income cannot afford all health service in maintaining his health. People
who are receiving lower income may somehow rely on the public heath services
rendered by the government and some non – government organization. The
income of an individual can affect his own health in many ways. It affects the six
aspect of his personality such as his physical, emotional, social, mental, spiritual,
and sexual.

of 10,001-15,000 pesos. 7 (5%) have monthly expenses of 15,001-20,000 pesos.
1 (1%) have monthly expenses of 20,001-25,000 pesos and 25,001-30,000
pesos.

Analysis
From the table and graph above shows 68 (48%) of the population at
Brgy. Carillo has low expenditure. This means that majority of the population has
an income less than 5,000 pesos a month, because most of their job was
seasonal and some are high school graduate that’s why they do not have a job
that can give them a high income.

Health Implication
Poverty and ill-health are intertwined. A problem on health is often
associated with substantial health care costs and benefits. Furthermore, poverty
and low income can also cause ill-health. Poor people within a barangay suffer
from multiplicity of deprivations that translate into high levels of ill-health. (Gabay,
Remotin & Uy, 2008)
The low expenditure of the family to its basic needs can be an early
warning of poverty in the area. The misallocation of the budget for health can
endanger the individual’s health status of every family member. The lack of
resources can indicate the poor status of health if it is not monitored properly.

Interpretation
As you look further on the table and graph, it shows that
most of the families view food as their main concern in spending their
money. Followed by health, education, clothing, utilities and the last is
recreation.

Analysis
We all know that food has many roles in our life. This is one
of the primary reasons why we are still surviving or existing. According to
the Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, human physiologic needs take the
highest priority, where food is considered as one of those needs (Kozier
and Erb’s Fundamentals of Nursing, 8th edition).
Food supplies the essential nutrients needed by our body,
which is converted into energy in order for us to perform our daily
activities. We considered eating nutritious foods as one way of taking care
of ourselves. It helps us to prevent in acquiring the different diseases or to
feel sick because it strengthens our immune system. It also helps for the
proper development of our mind and body. I think these are some of the
reasons why the families of Barangay Carillo, Hagonoy, Bulacan prioritize
food as their main concern in terms of expenses.
 31

Health Implication
We already know the different advantages of food in our life, but we
can’t also deny that it has disadvantages too, especially in terms of the
kinds of food were eating every day. We all eat food. We all want food of
the highest quality and safety. If we are on a low budget, our common
strategy is to eat badly. Issues such as food allergies, and the effects of
additives, organic versus conventional foods are all areas that people
have worries about ( DOH, Article “Food Issues”).
According to some studies made, those chemicals used in
preserving foods can cause or can lead us to the formation of different
diseases like heart, kidney, liver diseases or even cancers. But that should
not be the case. The truth is that, we are the one responsible in taking
care of our health by taking vitamins and minerals. Eat nutritious and rich
natural foods especially vegetables which is the most sound and effective
way to healthy living.

Analysis
Majority of the houses in Barangay Carillo are owned by families who live there.
It shows about a quarter of the houses are rented by the families that cannot
afford to have their own house. There are families that rent for free, and some
 32

owned at least two houses. It would be an additional expense to them if they pay
for the rent of the house of their monthly income.

Health Implication
Those who own their houses have the chance to save more money.
Those who rent don’t save much because they need to pay their bills in order to
stay in rented house. (www.healthmanagement.com.ph)

Analysis
Majority of the houses in Barangay Carillo are made up of mixed
materials. In this case, it is better than those made of light materials, if houses
are made from light materials they will be easily be blown by stong winds and
typhoons, they can be easily taken down by strong earthquakes and floods.
Having houses made from light like wood can be prone to fire because these
materials burn easily

Health Implication
People often build houses out of the nearest available material and often
tradition and culture govern construction. Materials so whole towns areas
countries or even states/countries maybe built out of one main type of material
 33

houses that are made. From strong materials can have the family a better
housing or protection from any harm or accidents or any typhoons that may come
up from their places. Also with houses made from a mixed material (stone and
wood) but not totally protected because it will not protect you fully from any
accidents likely, there would be typhoons in the country. Houses that are not
made from good materials may cause harm to the family.

The table reveals that out of 142 families who were interviewed, 103
(72.54%) utilize electricity as source of light at home. Thirty eight or 26.76% use
kerosene, and the rest prefer other means like candles and lamps for lighting
which accounts for 0.70%.

Analysis
Majority of the families living in Brgy. Carillo uses electricity as their source
of light at home. Having enough power sources in the community is necessary in
order to perform things easier and for their safety needs. The lighting facility
utilized in each household may be associated with the economic status. Due to
financial constraints, there are still who uses kerosene and other means of
lighting at home and cannot afford to avail electricity from MERALCO.

Health Implication
As stated in Florence Nightingale’s Environmental theory, one of the
factors that the nurse should utilize to assist patient in his recovery is light. Any
 34

deficiency in one or more of the factors she stated could lead to impaired
functioning of life processes or diminished health status. Like water and food, the
body uses light in a variety of metabolic processes. Thus, lights give us a chance
at a better life, enabling us to perform activities of daily living to our full extent.

The table shows that out of 142 surveyed people from Brgy. Carillo, 121 or

ventilation.

Analysis

Natural ventilation occurs when the air in a space is changed or outdoor

air without the use of mechanical systems, such as fan. Most often natural
ventilation is assumed through open windows but it can also be achieved through
temperature and pressure differences between spaces. Most of the households
in Barangay Carillo described their house with adequate ventilation. It indicates
that about 86% of the total number of families interviewed is comfortable in their
houses when it comes to ventilation.
 35

Health Implication

Fresh air is important for the health and comfort of the inhabitants. A
frequent cause of deadly carbon monoxide gas is incomplete combustion due to
an inadequate supply of oxygen. It is also vital household air be flushed to get rid
of pollutants that built up and irritate humans and even threaten the health of
people living in homes lacking proper air circulation.
(yourtotalhealth.ivillage.com). Also, some benefits of having fresh air includes, it
cleanses the lungs, it helps improve our breathing technique and also Fresh air
produces a healthy mind, clean lungs, and a calmer constitution.

Analysis

Most families in Brgy. Carillo use water-sealed facility. This shows that
most of the family considers water-sealed for it is economical type of facility
because it is cheaper than the flush type. The remaining 23% who uses flush
type system are mostly families that are in the middle level because they can
afford the flush type system while the other 5% are used by those indigent
families may be because of financial problem.

Health Implication

Aside from the sense of status that goes along with it, we trust our flush
toilet because seemingly it has worked for us at domestic level, it fulfils a need
for comfort and its extremely easy for us to operate. Another important factor is
that we let our noses instead of our conscience make the decision. Although we
may hear of other types of toilets that don’t use water and are totally safe for your
 36

health and the environment. It seems that we are not willing to consider another
option if we suspect that it implies unpleasant odours or would appear to be
“counter-culture”- that is to say, outside of what is identified as the “progress” and
“development” for which we all strive. The sad truth of the matter is that our
noses are only able to pick up certain things, and they are generally unable to
perceive the direst effects generated by our way of living. (www.wikipedia.com)

Analysis
Majority of the families in Brgy. Carillo have their own toilet facility. This
shows that the people in the baranggay prefer to have their own toilet and let
only the members of the family use it and so, the tendency of acquiring disease
from other people is low unlike with the people who uses public toilets and those
share toilets to others.

Health Implication
Owned toilet facility decreases the incidence of acquiring diseases like
Urinary Tract Infection because only known members of the family are able to
use the toilet. In this way, the hygiene and sanitation of the family is assured.
Also by having owned toilet facility, the maintenance of the toilet area is
monitored and must be kept clean and dry most of the time.

Table shows that out of 142 families, 69% in Brgy. Carillo has open
drainage system and 42(31%) have covered type of drainage.

Analysis

Majority of the household in Brgy. Carillo has an open drainage and it

indicates that illness or disease may emerge because of this type of drainage
system. Illness such as dengue could increase its risk of occurrence because the
drainage is not being covered. Most of the households in Brgy. Carillo are not
that well informed on proper drainage system and by this possible contamination
and emergence of disease may occur.

Health Implications

Generally, an underground drainage system is the most desirable way to

remove surface water effectively from operating areas. An open drainage
system, like ditch, is economical; however, when not properly maintained, t is
unsightly and unsafe. Sometimes, an open drainage system also causes erosion,
thus resulting in failures to nearby structures. Flooding caused by an inadequate
drainage system is the most prevalent cause leading to the rapid deterioration of
roads and airfields. Drainage canals or water treatment and disposal facilities are
often misused for washing, drinking, and uncontrolled disposal of human excreta
 38

or other waste by the poorest and, thus, most vulnerable social groups. In this
way, drainage water contributes to disease transmission. (www.wikipedia.com)

Analysis

It shows that majority have flowing system and this indicates lesser risk of

occurrences of diseases such as malaria and dengue. In this way, the decrease

in the development of such diseases like malaria and dengue will show that the

Brgy. is properly informed on proper drainage system condition.

Health Implication

Stagnant places attract vectors that acquire different diseases especially

dengue and malaria because these places may serve as reservoir. Stagnant

drainage system may also cause bad odor because of the piled wastes. By this,

it is most applicable to have flowing drainage system because by this we could

lessen the possibility of acquiring the said diseases. (www.google.com)

their waste are to be collected, 14 or 10% use burial in pit, 13 or 9% respondents
consider open dumping and only 1 or 1% of the respondent disposed waste by
giving or feeding the animal like hogs.

Analysis
Fifty-eight percent of the people of Barangay Carillo made a preference of
adopting composting as a method of disposing their garbage for the reasons that
composting process will yield by products. Such as organic fertilizer that is
needed for crops production, and anti-pollutant products which is environmental
friendly.

Health Implication
Composting process of disposing garbage is the preference of the 58%
respondents due to the facts that it is environmental human being friendly . Its by
products could be used by farmers as organic fertilizer for their crops which is
free from the content of hazardous chemical toxic compound and makes our
vegetable foods safe for eating and people may live in a healthy life. Vegetable
 40

crops as a yielded by products when using organic fertilizer are safe for
consumption because no traces of hazardous chemical compound having found
on them. Hence, it could provide a long lasting healthy life.

Analysis
Fifty-eight percent, which comprises the total respondents, used plastic
bag as their means of waste disposal for such a reason that plastic bag could be
able to handle conveniently the garbage because of its strength and flexibility.

Health Implication
Since plastic bag’s flexibility and strength could able to handle the
garbage well, bacteria coming from the garbage cannot be diffused or spread out
easily by the flying, crawling and walking scavengers. As a result bacteria inborn
disease are not eliminated.
Plastic bag is a non-biodegradable materials, once it has thrown on the
drainages and some open spaces it may cause clogging of canals and during
rainy season, it created flooding within the low lying communities and cities.
Exposure to flood waters containing leptospira, may cause a life threatening
disease known as leptospirosis and other pulmonary disease.

Analysis
Majority of the families in Barangay Carillo have depended much on the
local water system as their source of water supply, followed by those who use
commercialized water system because of safety and accessibility the water
systems could ensure the families in community. Safe and easy water supply is
given more importance despite that they have to pay by some means. The
difference between those who used commercial and local water system is a
matter of the families’ preferences and ability to pay. Only few used deep well
water system because of the effort required in water from it but still do so far
paying for the water is not needed.

Health Implication
Most people take a safe water supply for granted. When clear, good-
tasting water comes out of the faucet, we assume it is safe to drink. Unfortunately
this assumption is not always correct. Water supply needs to be tested regularly
to confirm safe water.
Local water district supplies water most of the families in Barangay Carillo,
Hagonoy, Bulacan. Safeness of water is depending on the way and good tubing
connections that connects their house from the water district. Together with good
water storage, safeness of water will varies.

Analysis
Majority of the families in Barangay Carillo prefer to use large container
with cover as their water storage, followed by water in a refrigerator because of
safety and convenience. Safety of their drinking water is very important to the
families in the community to prevent diseases. Just simply using clean large
container with cover as water storage can facilitate reduction of acquiring any
disease-causing microorganisms from water.

Health Implication
Using large container without cover as water storage is not safe because
of environment’s infiltrates and easy contamination of the water. Families cannot
ensure the good quality of water especially for drinking comsumption because of
inadequate water storage protection and poor management. Families that were
not using any water storage are prone to develop any diseases like diarrhea and
amoebiasis.

d
Total 142 100% majority of them has a low tendency of
having spoiled foods and the likes. As
the refrigerator produces cold ice, it helps to maintain food preservation of meat,
fruits, vegetables and other perishable foods.
Health Implication
One of the most effective ways to store food that makes it less
susceptible for contamination is the use of refrigerator. It prevent food from
spoilage due to invasion of microorganisms that may cause disease upon eating.
Refrigerated leftovers must eat within 4 days to maintain food safety. If
don’t anticipate being able to eat this food within this period of time, freeze them
immediately. To help ensure food safety, refrigerate perishable foods quickly and
don’t let them stay for longer than 2 hours at room temperature or for longer than
one hour if the room temperature is above 90F (32C).
In some instances, people who unfortunately can not afford to buy or used
refrigerator at all could use a cooler with ice as an alternative way to preserve
their food for a short period of time. Some may buy food only when they were
about to eat it, to avoid spoilage or contamination

Analysis
 44

Majority of people in Barangay Carillo, Hagonoy Bulacan prefer to cover

their food to keep their prepared food uncontaminated by some vectors. This
implies that the majority of the households are able to maintain cleanliness in
order to ensure that the food were clean and safe to eat. Food sanitation should
ensure primarily the consumption of safe and wholesome food and thereby
protect the individual from illness and at the same time promote the health and
well being.

Health Implication
Sanitation is the state free from disease causing organisms. It
preserves cleanliness and promotes food safety. Food can be contaminated in so
many ways if they left their food uncovered.. Therefore, proper handling, covering
and cleaning of the kitchen utensils greatly reduces the risks of food-borne
disease or the illnesses contracted from eating contaminated food or beverages.
Botulism, Brucellosis, Campylobacter enteritis, Escherichia coli, Hepatitis A,
Listeriosis, Salmonellosis, Shigellosis, Toxoplasmosis, Viral gastroenteritis,
Taeniasis and Trichinosis are examples of foodborne diseases.  After they are
swallowed, there is a delay, called the incubation period, before the symptoms of
illness begin.  This delay may range from hours to days, depending on the
organism, and on how many of them were swallowed.  During the incubation
period, the microbes pass through the stomach into the intestine, attach to the
cells lining the intestinal walls, and begin to multiply there.  Some types of
microbes stay in the intestine, some produce a toxin that is absorbed into the
bloodstream, and some can directly invade the deeper body tissues.  The
symptoms produced depend greatly on the type of microbe. Numerous
organisms cause similar symptoms, especially diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and
nausea.  There is so much overlap that it is rarely possible to say which microbe
is likely to be causing a given illness unless laboratory tests are done to identify
the microbe, or unless the illness is part of a recognized outbreak.

Analysis
 47

The table shows that majority of surveyed population in Brgy. Carillo

cleaned their yard as their way to eliminate vectors to reduce possible agent in
transforming disease from one person to another. By

Health Implication
According to World Health Organization, unhygienic conditions and
practices at the household level create a dangerous environment with immediate
health risks to children. Also, lack of sanitation facilities in schools helps transmit
diseases. Waste dumps sited on the outskirts of almost all major cities provide
hazardous environmental conditions to those living nearby and even more so to
those living as scavengers on such wastes. Sanitation interventions, technical
and managerial, are badly needed in all areas in houses, schools, and within the
community at large. (www.who.int)

Analysis

Most Filipinos are fond of having pets especially in rural communities.

According to the people interviewed, they own dogs and cats not just as pets but

also as guards or one who helping them get rid of the pets like rats. They also

own chicken because of the money they will earn.

of household pets and 42% do have vaccines.

Analysis
Community people like Carillo lacks information about the importance of
vaccination of their household pets especially dogs and cats. Upon interview to
the residence of the community, most of the people who own such pets don’t
have any idea about project of the Barangay on vaccination of their pets.

Health Implications
 49

Human infected with rabies is nearly always secondary to animal bite,

with dog being the major reservoir for human rabies. Once clinical symptoms
have occurred, the disease is almost invariably fatal.

Interpretation
A further look on the table above, most of the people on the community
practiced taking a bath regularly, tooth brushing, hand washing, nail cutting, and
ear cleaning as well. But there are also few who didn’t practice it. Half of the
people in the community are cigarette smokers and drinks alcoholic beverages. A
larger number of respondents who don’t even seek a medical check up from the
health care professionals can also be observed.

Analysis
The people in the community are still concern in their health because most of
them practice personal hygiene. However, as a result of a large number of
alcoholic drinkers, troubles and misunderstanding develop in the community. An
increased number of smokers can also be related to the large number of
alcoholic drinkers because drinking is often times associated with smoking.
Medical check-up is performed only by few who need medical assistance due to
their health problems.

Health Implication
Maintaining a high level of personal hygiene such as taking a bath regularly
and tooth brushing will help to increase self-esteem and confidence while
minimizing the chances of developing imperfections. Keeping the body cleaned
decreases the chance of acquiring certain diseases. Lifestyle management plays
a crucial role in ensuring the overall wellbeing of a person. However, failure to
perform proper lifestyle practices can cause various physical and mental
complications.(http://www.bestindiansites.com/lifestyle/lifestyle-

Analysis

As we can see on the table above, the doctor got the highest percentage in

terms of health consultation. The people in the community are now more aware

of the modern ways in promoting their health rather than the traditional ones.

They believe on the abilities of the doctors in making them feel better when they

have health problems. Being a doctor takes a lot time of studying and practicing

to be able to perform his/her duties appropriately. Knowledge gained by doctors

 52

throughout those years is scientifically and medically based. Hence, the

interventions provided by doctors are well guided by a scientific basis and

malpractice is not merely to happen.

The table shows that 97(67.83%) of the surveyed population in Brgy.
Carillo ate mixed type of foods, which is the combination of meat, fish and
vegetables. Twenty-four (17.48%) of the population ate fish. Nineteen (13.29%)
of the surveyed population ate vegetables. And only 2(1.40%) respondents
preferred to eat meat.

Analysis
Majority of the families in Brgy. Carillo preferred mixed type of food, which
is the combination of meat, fish and vegetables, for the reason that they can
easily purchase these items from their nearest market. And also, they know the
importance of eating equal or balanced amount of food to acquire their needed
energy and nutrients.

Health Implications
You must have carbohydrate, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals salts and fiber in
the correct proportions. If there is not enough protein, you will not be able to grow
properly and you will not be able to repair yourself i.e. wounds will not heal
properly. If you do not have enough energy containing foods you will feel very
 53

tired, you will not have enough energy. If you have too much energy containing
foods you will become overweight. If you think that you are overweight you might
try taking more exercise to "burn off" some of the excess food which you ate at
your last meal. (A Balance Diet,

Percentage of Families According to Acceptance of Family Planning
Methods
Interpretation
The table and figure above shows that of the 145 families surveyed in
Brgy. Carillo, 83(58.04%) were acceptor of family planning methods and
60(41.96%) families are non-acceptor of the family planning methods.

Analysis
Majority of the people of Brgy. Carillo are acceptor of family planning
methods. This denotes that the Barangay Health workers are effective in
disseminating knowledge regarding the family planning programs and supporting
them would help the government and the Department of Health in achieving their
goal in family planning.

Health Implication
Family planning is a national mandated priority public health program to
attain the country’s national health development. It provides information and
services for the couples of reproductive age to plan their family according to their
beliefs and circumstances through legally and medically acceptable family
planning methods.
According to the Department of Health, Family Planning Program wishes
to empowered men and women living healthy, productive and fulfilling lives and
exercising the right to regulate own fertility through legally and acceptable family
planning services.
 54

The choice of the couple to utilize a family planning method constitutes to

several benefits such as improvement of reproductive health, reduction of
poverty and of maternal and child mortality, empowerment of women by
lightening the burden of excessive childbearing within the context of responsible
parenthood and enhancement of environmental sustainability by stabilizing the
planet’s population. (NEDA Region V, 2005)

Interpretation
Referring to the table above, of the 83 acceptors of family planning,
52(62.65%) respondents used Natural Family Planning(NFP) methods such as
calendar method, withdrawal/coitus interruptus and Lactational Amenorrhea
Method(LAM) and others such as cervical mucus method, basal body
temperature and abstinence. Twenty-five (30.12%) of the respondents used
Artificial methods such as injectibles, condom, pills and others such as IUD,
estrogen patch, etc. Six (7.23%) subject to permanent method particularly tubal
ligation.

Analysis
Majority of the residents of the said barangay used the NFP methods,
particularly the calendar method, for the reason that it didn’t cost them anything.
Moreover, they prefer to use natural methods because it didn’t produce any
undesired effects unlike the artificial methods.
On the other hand, some prefer to use artificial methods, particularly the
injectables, because it provides the lowest percent of error in preventing
conception. The effectiveness rate of this method is almost 100% making them
an increasingly popular contraceptive method. (Pilliteri, A., Maternal and Child
Nursing 5th ed.)

Lastly, only few were subjected to permanent method particularly tubal

ligation because they are satisfied with the number of children they have. This
method has a 99.5% effectiveness rate. (Pilliteri, A., Maternal and Child Nursing
5th ed.)

Health Implication
Fertility awareness methods or Natural Family Planning methods are
based on the fact that fertilization is most likely to occur around the time of
ovulation. Intercourse is avoided during those times when a woman is fertile, thus
preventing conception. Fertility awareness methods are the only methods of birth
control which require the cooperation of both partners. Advantages of these
methods are that they are very inexpensive, do not require the use of artificial
devices or drugs, and have no harmful side-effects. In addition, many people
prefer a natural, mutual method of preventing pregnancy. Even if fertility
awareness isn't used as contraception, every woman can benefit from
 56

understanding the workings of her body. (Fertility Awareness,

c. Pamphlets

Ihiwalay ang nabubulok sa di nabubulok

 76

Sundin ang pamantayan na 3R sa basura

Malinis na kapaligiran para maiwasan ang mga sakit

 77

Tulong para matigil ang paninigarilyo

Ihanda ang sarili. Alamin ang mga dahilan kung bakit nais tumigil.
 78

Pagpasyahan at planuhin nang mabuti.

Magtakda ng petsa kung kalian talaga titigil.

 79

Umiwas sa tukso. Pansamantalang lumayo muna sa mga kaibigang

naninigarilyo rin o kaya ay ipaalam sa kanila ang plano mong
huminto na. Itabi ang lahat ng sigarilyo at ashtray sa bahay at
opisina. Huwag maglalagay ng sigarilyo sa bulsa.

Asahan ang pagdating ng tinatawag na withdrawal symptoms. Ano

ito? Ito ay isang kondisyon kung saan ang buong katawan ay
 80

nakararanas ng masamang pakiramdam at pagkabalisa dala ng

biglang pagtigil sa bisyong nakasanayan na. Ang withdrawal
symptoms ay mararanasan sa umpisa ngunit ito ay isang senyales
na ang katawan ay nag-uumpisa nang humilom.

Humingi ng suporta mula sa mga kamag- anak, kabiyak at kaibigan.

Maging abala sa mga iba-ibang Gawain. Magkaroon ng mga dagdag

na libangan tulad ng sports at pagsasayaw.
 81

Kunin ng paisa-isang araw ang pagtigil sa paninigarilyo hanggang sa

unti-unting makasanayan na hindi ka na gumagamit nito.
 82

Huwag agad masiraan ng loob kung sa simula ay hindi magtagumpay.

Kailangan ang matinding determinasyon para subukan muling huminti.
Mag-pursige.

Imbis na sigarilyo ang ilagay sa bibig, mag nicotine gum ka na lang.

Magtanong sa doctor o sa botika tungkol sa tamang paggamit ng
Nicotine gum.

Tandaan: Ang paghinto sa paninigarilyo ay hindi biro. Kailangan ng tiyaga

at determinasyon upang mapanaig ang kagustuhang matigil ang
paninigarilyo, at mapanumbalik ang kalusugan ng katawan.
 83

Tulungan kita kaibigan. Kaya natin yan!
