Study Notes
Nursing Theories in Community Health
- Nursing theory underpins community and family care.
- Health Belief Model predicts health behaviors to avoid disease, focusing on individual change.
- Key components: perceived susceptibility, seriousness, threat, modifying factors, cues to action, and perceived benefits versus barriers.
Milio's Framework for Prevention
- Complements the Health Belief Model and emphasizes community-level change.
- Links health deficits with the availability of health-promoting resources.
- Behavior changes of individuals can lead to broader social change.
Pender's Health Promotion Model
- Similar to Health Belief Model but does not include health risks as a change factor.
- Focuses on individual actions to promote health.
- Factors affecting actions: personal characteristics, previous behavior, perceived benefits, barriers, self-efficacy, and influences from others.
Essentials of Community Nursing
- Determinants of health include nutrition, stress, education, environment, finances, and social status.
- Health indicators like mortality rates and disease prevalence assess community health.
Health Promotion Model Variables
- Individual characteristics and experiences play a crucial role.
- Behavior-specific cognitions, perceived benefits, barriers, self-efficacy, interpersonal and situational influences factor in health-promoting behavior.
Community Health Frameworks
- PRECEDE outlines planning for public health initiatives.
- Geopolitical communities are defined by natural and man-made boundaries (barangays, municipalities).
- Phenomenological communities based on shared culture, values, and interests (schools, churches).
Characteristics of a Healthy Community
- Access to quality education, safe homes, employment, transportation, physical activity, nutrition, and health care.
- Empowerment, openness in communication, and problem-solving capabilities are vital for community well-being.
Healthy City Goals
- Creating a supportive health environment and ensuring basic sanitation and healthcare access.
Data Sources in Community Health Assessment
- Census provides demographic and economic data, while sample surveys gather specific health information.
- Life expectancy is assessed by person-years lived beyond age 0.
- Swaroop's index tracks mortality in individuals above 50 years.
Epidemiology Basics
- Epidemiology studies the distribution and determinants of health conditions in populations.
- It helps diagnose community health status, measure illness distribution, and evaluate health services.
Functions of Epidemiology in Nursing
- Implementing public health surveillance to monitor disease trends.
Natural History of Disease
- Understanding disease progression from susceptibility to outcomes like recovery or death.
- Stages include prepathogenesis (susceptibility) and pathogenesis (development of disease).
Patterns of Disease Occurrence
- Sporadic: Isolated cases with no relation (e.g., rabies in the Philippines).
- Endemic: Continuous cases over time (e.g., tuberculosis).
- Epidemic: Large numbers in a short period (e.g., bird flu).
- Pandemic: Global spread of disease (e.g., COVID-19).
Community Health Assessment Tools
- Key tools include demographics, vital statistics, and epidemiology.
- Focus on population characteristics, socio-economic factors, and health service availability.
- Data collection methods include observation, surveys, interviews, community forums, and focus groups.
