INTRODUCTION

Community health nursing serves as a link between healthcare organizations and


communities, working together to promote a healthy lifestyle and raise community
awareness about their health status. Every community faces unique challenges and as
student nurses, community health nursing teaches us the appropriate solution for health
problems within a specific group by combining and expanding our knowledge and skills.
In this case study, we focus on different families, as family and community are two of
the most crucial social institutions in the development and daily lives of
individuals. Together, they guide who we are, embody values in us, define what we
consider appropriate and inappropriate, and teach us about what is and is not possible.
Our families and communities help us navigate the world by printing the numerous inner
maps we carry. Although family and community are frequently studied separately, they
are inextricably and reciprocally related. The family's viability as a social institution has
always been dependent on the support of the local community, and vibrant communities
are defined by active and engaged families.
Sanitation is a major concern in communities where people are constantly
exposed to polluted environments. Improvements in disposal practices are critical to
improving public health. A number of studies suggest that a lack of sanitation facilities
causes health problems, particularly among the urban poor who live in overcrowded
informal settlements. The poor are invariably the ones who suffer the most from a lack
of safe water and sanitation, as they lack not only the resources to provide such
services but also the knowledge of how to mitigate the negative effects of living in
unsanitary conditions. As a result, the detrimental effects of unsanitary living conditions
reduce the productive potential of those who can least afford them. Therefore, proper
collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal of garbage are critical to community
health and environmental improvement. Malnutrition, on the other hand, needs to be
addressed as well, as it is one of the most impactful social and health problems
affecting young children today, whether they live in a developed city or a less developed
rural area. In order to ensure that the general public is informed about healthy habits
and the effects of malnutrition, especially in young children, it is the responsibility of the
government to implement nutritional education through relevant agencies' and
departments' involvement in a national education strategy. In addition, in this generation,
it is also important to be vigilant, especially mothers, as their children may experience
bullying when they are not around them. Bullying is a serious problem in the public
health sector. This is based on the effects it has on victimized children, as they may
develop low self-esteem, become physically weak, and have poor social skills until
adulthood. Thus, it must be addressed by all stakeholders, including the parents and
teachers of the children. The fact that bullying affects children's psychology emphasizes
the importance of this issue in public health. It is a vice that has affected children,
particularly those of school age, and most commonly occurs in schools, where children
are bullied by peers who may be stronger than them. The victims may find it difficult to
relate to other children, as they may have difficulty standing up for themselves. In most
cases, this is a problem that is likely to cause children to drop out of school. Given the
effects of bullying on children, it is critical to develop comprehensive policies to address
the issue. Anti-bullying policies should be developed and implemented in all areas
where children are bullied, particularly schools.

Summary

The Pagal Family is composed of a complete family that has six members. They
have been residing in Brgy. Iba Silang, Cavite, for 34 years, and their conflict is the
father's having another affair, she didn’t know anything about it where it was from and
how long it had been. Their dominant family member is the father, who supports his
family by being a fish vendor at Silang Wet Market. The 1st born is currently in grade 2
due to he can’t read, so the teacher decide to repeat him. Baby Shell is not yet in school
because she just turned 4years old. The family goes to a doctor, nurse, barangay health
worker, or health center when they feel something bad that can lead to illness. After all,
the family has a dog that was not vaccinated, which may lead to danger. Even the
whole family has never received an immunization or vaccination because they don't
want to. At the same time, the family's common illnesses are fever, cough, and common
colds, and wound which they treat with paracteamol, ambroxol, amoxicillin, solmux.and
neozep

Furthermore, as we did physical assessments, we came up with some problems


that we, as a student nurse, could assess. First, both children 1 and 2 have lesions and
scars on their skin. Second, in their hair, there is a presence of lice on the mother, child
1, and child 2. Third, at the mother's eye there is a presence of yellowish color; knowing
this, we make sure that the mother will have a proper health teaching, and we suggest
to her that she go to the RHU-Silang for her to clarify what illness she has. Fourth, child
2 has a cold. Fifth, the mother, child 1, and child 2 have a missing tooth. Sixth, the
mother is experiencing dyspnea. Seventh, there is diarrhea in children 1 and 2. Eighth,
child 2 has a UTI (urinary tract infection). Ninth, the family ate three times a day; their
meals included rice, fish (when the father had an excess of fish to bring home), and
vegetables. But unfortunately, the family is only drinking 2 glasses of water, which is the
one reason why the second child has a UTI. Tenth, bullying is the past trauma that
children 1 and 2 have experienced, which is evident by the presence of scars on their
skin.

Conclusion
The Pagal family suffers from a number of health issues, some of which we have
identified. These include the high risk of contracting diseases brought on by the lack of
vaccinations as well as the environment, the improper fluid intake that results in UTI in
their second child, and the trauma that both of their children have experienced as a
result of bullying. However, despite these issues, it is clear that the parents continue to
provide for and care. Also, the student nurses were quite successful in classifying the
acknowledged medical concerns as a health hazard, a health deficiency, or an
anticipated crisis as they were able to identify current and potential issues that could be
a factor in limiting best possible health. The pupils were likewise unable to address
every issue because of the prevailing circumstances. The family now has enough
information, nevertheless, that they can use as necessary.
