Community Diagnosis

-
Act 3753 established the civil registry system in the Philippines, requiring the registration of births, marriages, and deaths.
-
RA 7160 assigned the function of civil registration to local governments and mandated the appointment of Local (city/municipal) Civil Registrars.
-
PD 856, the Sanitation Code, outlines standards and regulations for sanitation in the Philippines.
-
EO NO. 352 established the official recording and reporting system of the NCSB to generate health statistics.
-
COPAR is a sustained process of educating people to understand and develop their critical awareness, empowering them to solve their problems and improve their health.
-
Community Organizing is based on the principles of participation, empowerment, and collective action, aiming to address community needs and improve health outcomes.
-
There are different approaches to community organizing, including PROCEED, which stands for Policy, Regulatory, and Organizational Constructs in Educational and Environmental Development.
-
The entry phase of community organizing is the initial stage, where the organizing team builds relationships with potential participants. The organization building phase focuses on strengthening the community through capacity building and leadership development. The sustenance and strengthening phase aims to ensure long-term sustainability of community initiatives.
-
Community diagnosis involves identifying health and social problems within a community. It includes collecting and analyzing data on demographics, health & illness patterns, social & cultural variables, economic indicators, and environmental indicators.
-
Primary health care is a holistic approach to community development, aiming to address health needs through a multi-sectoral perspective.
-
Community profiling provides a comprehensive overview of a community's characteristics, including demographics, socio-economic factors, health status, and resources. It's a crucial tool for understanding the community's needs and developing targeted interventions.
Community Health Action Plan
-
In developing a community health action plan, several sequential steps are involved:
- Determining The Objectives: Defining clear goals and aims for the plan.
- Defining The Study Population: Identifying the target community for the plan.
- Determining The Data to Be Collected: Deciding on relevant information to gather.
- Collecting The Data: Obtaining data through surveys, interviews, and other methods.
- Data Collation: Organizing and summarizing the collected data.
- Data Presentation: Presenting the collected data in a clear and concise manner.
- Data Analysis: Interpreting the data and drawing conclusions.
Priority Setting in Community Health
-
When prioritizing health problems for intervention, consider factors like magnitude, salience, nature, and preventive potential.
-
Magnitude refers to the extent or prevalence of the health problem. Salience pertains to the perceived importance of the problem by the community. Nature describes the characteristics of the health problem, such as its contagiousness or severity. Preventive potential focuses on the feasibility and effectiveness of interventions to address the problem.

Program evaluation is essential for assessing and improving community health programs.
-
It involves examining three key aspects:
- Process: Examining how the program is implemented.
- Outcome: Measuring immediate results of the program.
- Impact: Assessing long-term effects of the program and its impact on the community.
