At the end of this lesson, you are expected to explain the importance
of Health

Health Appraisal Procedure is a procedure to determine the health

statue of the students. Regular health appraisal can help you avoid
absenteeism and poor school performance by early detection of poor
health conditions. The following health components are part of you
school health appraisal.
Health History – Your school will keep a record of your history like
immunizations, childhood illnesses, allergies, previous hospitalizations,
medication used, significant accidents or injuries, surgeries, and chronic
illnesses.
Family History – This includes the general health of parents and
siblings. It also includes history of family diseases and your physical
environment.
Current Health Status – This includes your dental status, current
family medical problems, allergies, and your behavior.

Screening Procedures – This includes the following:

 HEIGHT and WEIGHT MEASUREMENT- is important
when monitoring an infant or Child’s health. It is used to
calculate your body mass index, or BMI, a measure of
healthy versus unhealthy weight. They are also important
when tracking a child’s
growth.

 BREAST SELF-EXAMINATION- Breast self-

examination helps doctor check that everything is normal.
Doctors don’t usually start doing breast exams until a girl is in
her 20s. During breast exam a doctor or nurse practitioner will
feel a woman’s breast to check any lumps and bumps and see if
there are changes.

 HEARING TEST - A hearing (audiometric) test is part of

an ear exam that tests how well a person is able to hear. It
is done by measuring how well sound can reach the brain.

 VISION SCREENING- is an efficient and cost –effective

method to identify children with visual impairment or eye
conditions that are likely to lead to vision loss so that a
referral can be made to an appropriate eye care
professional for further evaluations and treatment.

 SCOLIOSIS TEST- This is a simple screening test that can

detect potential problems. If you notice any unevenness,
you should contact your doctor for an exam. Using a
 scoliometer can help determine the severity of the curve.
Scoliosis is usually
confirmed by taking X-ray of the entire spin looking from
front to back.
