HEALTH HISTORY
2 | Page
The child was delivered through normal spontaneous delivery. The child
experienced common illnesses such as fever, cough, colds and toothache. Whenever
the patient has mild fever, her mother usually relieves the fever by placing a cooling
pad on her forehead to lower the temperature of the child. The mother did not
mention any other remedy aside from this. However, if the fever persists to 2-3 days,
they would consult Dr.Bumanglag who usually prescribes Paracetamol syrup 1
teaspoon 3x a day until the temperature normalizes. According to the mother, the
fever usually disappears after taking the prescribed drug. Cough and colds were
managed by taking over the counter drugs like Neozep syrup which is given 1
tablespoon 3 x a day every after meal 2-3 days until the colds is gone. Also, her
mother gives her 1 glass of calamansi juice for snack whenever she has colds as told
by her grandmother. According to the mother, the cough and colds usually disappear
after taking these remedies. For toothache, it was managed by taking over the counter
drugs, Paracetamol 1 tablespoon as needed. And if the illnesses last for 2-3 days, they
would go to a physician for consultation. The child have not experienced any allergies
or being hospitalized.

B. Environment
Kyleigh and his family lives in a two-storey house made up of semi-concrete
materials. The house consists of 10 bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen, one dining
area and 1 playroom for the children. The other side of the road is an open canal and
trees. The left side of the house is their parking area and trees, also with the right side of
the house which is a vacant lot. Although the area of the house could not be estimated,
the grandmother claims that the house has enough space for Kyle and his brother to play.
The house, however, doesnt have a gate. Also, the house is just beside a barangay road
where tricycles and or other vehicles pass by. The family owns a television, a living room
set, refrigerator, electric fan, air conditioning unit, sound system, radio, dining room set
and 2 motorcycle. During the visit, it was observed that there were scattered toys in the
living room. Further, bags were seen scattered on the sofa and electric outlets do not have
covers. The family own a small sari-sari store. Since the location of the house is near the
university, and beside the barangay houses, most of their buyers were students. During
the visit, there were by-standers who were smoking and drinking alcohol beverages.
Kyleighs mother claimed that none in the family speaks bad language. However, she
usually hears the by-standers speaking bad words. In school, some children utter bad
words but Kyleigh would stay away from these children as mentioned by the mother. She
stays most of the time with her mother and grandmother who stay in the home with her
together with her younger brother. Since her father works as a server in a computer shop
from 8-10pm, it is during the night, weekends or holidays that Kyleigh and her father has
time to bond.
In general, the family members have a harmonious relationship with each other.
According to the grandmother, there were no conflicts experienced by the family. Neither
were there instances wherein they had serious conflicts with their neighbors. She claimed
that they would settle the conflict by talking to each other and come up with a realistic
situation.

personality and affects the development of self-esteem, identity, trust, the ability to enter
into intimate relationships, and personal resilience.
C. Health
During the interview and assessment, the client was physically healthy and was not
suffering from any illness. According to her mother, Kyleigh is taking her vitamins religiously.
However, when asked if said vitamin was prescribed, the mother said that was recommended by a
relative which she tried on Kyleigh and observed to be effective.

That could help her achieve her full growth and development potential. However, her intake of
medicine (vitamins) with prescription may have adverse effects that could lead to disability which
may hinder growth and development or may affect her later in life. Thus, the family should be
taught or encouraged to such advice from an authorized doctor before taking medication. Selfmedication might have side effects as the client grows.
D. Nutrition
According to her mother, she likes all the foods that are presented on the table except
those which are bitter like bittermelon, most vegetables, and dinuguan. She is fond of eating meat
and eggplant omelette. She also loves eating candies and chocolates. She eats 3 meals and 2
snacks a day. The family take their breakfast between 7:00-7:30 AM, their lunch between 12:0012:30 PM, and their dinner between 6:30-7:00 PM they take their snacks at 9-9:30 am and 3-3:30

ANALYSIS:
Based from the 3-day dietary recall, the dietary intake of Kyleigh maybe sufficient in
quantity but the quality is not sufficient, since the usual diet does not contain all the essential food
groups such as foods and vegetables. Hence, Kyleigh may not obtain the necessary nutrients to
support growth and development and to boost her immune system. This could lead to
susceptibility to certain diseases.
The family therefore, should be encouraged to practice healthy eating habits such as
inclusion of all essential nutrients in the diet and healthy food preparation to promote healthy
food preparation to promote health and prevent diseases. The client might develop diseases
because of her eating habits. She should maintain a healthy body by eating nutritious foods and
eating a balanced diet.
According to the Natural Food Service Management Institute (2000), poorly nourished
children have more problems fighting infections. They maybe sick and miss school more often

and fail to keep up with classmates. Further, undernutrition results in decrease activity levels,
decreased social interactions, decreased curiosity and decreased cognitive functioning.

Race/Culture/Religion
The client is pure Filipino. Her mother is from Batac and her father is from Marcos Ilocos
Norte and now they are living together at Batac. All the members of the family including the
patient are Roman Catholics. They dont usually attend to church activities, also they dont pray
before meals. They dont have specificpractices in rearing children. But in disciplining Kyleigh,
they teach her not to utter bad words and theyll talk to her properly for the wrong doings to
make her realize that it is bad. Theyare aware of the different superstitious beliefs and practices
but they dont practice it. Based on the clients grandmother they dont practice such because
they are now more knowledgeable and they believe more on science and proven ways on how to
treat illnesses. As such they dont consult faith healers, hilots and others. They dont use any
herbal medicines in treating common illnesses in the family.
ANALYSIS:
Studies show that people who attend church are more likely to: have a strong
family unit, be married and less likely to be divorced or single, move out of poverty, have
sound moral judgement, lack in social problems such as suicide, drug use, out-ofwedlock births and crime, lack in the possibility of developing depression, have better
relationships with their parents (Fagan,1990).Since Kyleigh and the whole family dont
go to church then their family would more likely to develop these problems.
Parenting style refers to the way in which parents choose to raise their children.
The way that people parent is an important factor in their children's socioemotional
growth and development. In her research, Diana Baumrind (1966) found what she
considered to be the two basic elements that help shape successful parenting: parental
responsiveness and parental demandingness. In the case of Kayleighs mother, she has
both the mentioned elements. Being acquiescent to the clients special demands despite
the lack of religiousness and shes still fulfilling her role as a mother to Kyleigh.

The clients family is an extended type of family which comprises, grandmother, father, mother,
cousin, brother and the client. Kyleigh is the eldest. They have harmonious relationship to one another.
Whenever she communicates with the member of the family, she respond and answer them with respect
like stating the words ate mama papa lola etc. Whenever her father goes to his work she kisses and
hugs her father and when the father has day off they go to fastfood chains and mall. The grandmother
gives all her desire whenever she request for it. The client and her brother are playmates they usually
play inside their home and they have a good relationship, because whenever the mother is out and her
grandmother is busy, she will usually take care of her brother. The relationship of the client with her
cousin is variable because sometimes they are having some mild conflicts with each other. But they dont
say bad words.
Analysis:
The child stays with his parents and his sibling. As stated by Dr. Dale Peterson of
the Wellness Clubs of America, a well-functioning family is the most secure, supportive
and nurturing environment for a child. The presence of a mother in the family as stated by
Charles Smith (Kansas State University) is the one who gives comfort and the father is
viewed as the Knight in shining armor who will keep them safe. According to Pilliteri the
position of the child in the family is the one of the contributory factors on a childs
growth and development. As the oldest child in the family she excels in language because
conversations are mainly with adults. The child also leads her younger brother and
become a role model. A healthy family relationship help all the family members fell safe
and connected with one another. When children receive love and support in a warm
family environment, they will be able to perform childhood tasks of exploring their world

and learning new skills and according to Jaeger 2013, Extended family matters is that it
acts as a social resources to the immediate family and the may contribute resources which
alleviate the negative impact of these events on childrens well being
