    Study Notes

    Philippine Health Agenda (PHA) 2016-2022

    • The PHA aims to guarantee the right to health for all Filipinos, as stated in the 1987 Philippine Constitution.
    • The PHA focuses on achieving optimal health outcomes for all Filipinos, regardless of their socioeconomic background, ethnicity, gender, or location.
    • The PHA emphasizes a healthcare system that values and respects its clients and patients.
    • The PHA prioritizes protection for families, particularly those in vulnerable situations, against the high costs of healthcare.

    Health System Guarantees

    • The health system will ensure population- and individual-level interventions for the whole lifespan.
    • The interventions will focus on health and wellness, prevent and treat the triple burden of disease, delay complications, facilitate rehabilitation, and provide palliation.

    • Services will be provided to pregnant women, children, adolescents, adults, and older persons.

    Triple Burden of Disease

    • Consists of the following:
      • Backlog of communicable diseases and neglected tropical diseases (Dengue, Chikungunya, Scabies)

    Access to Health Interventions

    • The health system will ensure access to health interventions through functional Service Delivery Networks (SDNs).
    • SDNs will consist of a well-equipped and fully-staffed network of static or mobile health facilities that are located near the population.
    • Services provided will comply with clinical practice guidelines, be available 24/7, and be resilient during disasters.

    Financial Freedom in Universal Health Insurance

    • The National Health Insurance Program (NHIP) aims to provide financial freedom for Filipinos by eliminating healthcare costs.
    • The NHIP enrolls 100% of Filipinos, encompassing both formal and non-formal sectors.
    • Formal sector employees contribute premiums through payroll deductions.
    • Non-formal sector employees receive tax subsidies to cover their premiums.
    • The NHIP offers 100% coverage (zero-copayment) for individuals in the low-income bracket and those admitted to basic accommodations.
    • For individuals admitted to non-basic, private accommodations, a predictable (fixed) co-payment is implemented.

    Working With Families: Key Concepts

    • Nurses should work with families for several important reasons.
    • Families can positively influence their members' health through initiatives like health promotion and wellness activities.
    • Disease can impact all family members.
    • Nurses can provide more holistic care by understanding the family as a system.

    The Family as a System

    • The family operates as a unit, interacting with both external and internal systems.
    • Social systems, such as education, employment, and housing, have major influence on family health.
    • The family comprises three crucial subsystems:
      • Parent-Child subsystem
      • Marital subsystem
      • Sibling-Sibling subsystem

    Marriage

    • The beginning of a family unit, marriages involves the joining of two families and couples creating their identities as husband and wife.
    • Spouses realign their extended family relationships as part of the new family unit.
    • Transition to parenthood involves a period of decision making about family dynamics.

    Families with Young Children

    • The integration of children into a family unit is a major life shift.
    • Task adjustments are needed for child-rearing, finances, and managing the household.
    • Adjustments require acclimating to new roles of parenting and grand parenting as the family grows.

    Families with Adolescents

    • Adolescents develop increasing autonomy, leading to changes in family dynamics
    • Parents may re-evaluate their marriage and careers during this time
    • Families begin to shift their focus towards caring for older generations

    Families as Launching Centers

    • Parents and adult children establish independent identities
    • Marital relationships are renegotiated as children move out
    • Family relationships adjust to include in-laws and grandchildren
    • Families may face the challenges of dealing with disabilities and death in the older generation

    Aging Families

    • Families face adaptations as they age, including adjusting couple and individual functioning.
    • Middle generations play a crucial support role in aging families.
    • Older generations require support and maintain autonomy.
    • Families also prepare for death and deal with the loss of spouses, siblings, and peers.

    Family Health Task

    • Community health nurses play an important role in empowering families to perform their health tasks.
    • The primary family health task is providing members with means for health promotion and disease prevention.
    • Examples of health promotion and disease prevention include breastfeeding, healthy diets for older members, and bringing children for immunizations.

    Family Nursing Diagnosis

    • The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) proposes specific diagnoses for families.
    • The Family Coping Index provides a framework for identifying areas where nursing intervention might be needed.
    • The Family Coping Index highlights areas of family strengths that can be utilized to address health needs and issues.
    • Instead of focusing on identifying problems, the Family Coping Index concentrates on identifying coping patterns within the family across nine assessment areas.

    Physical Dependence

    • Assesses family members' mobility and ability to perform daily tasks.

    Therapeutic Competence

    • Measures the family's ability to follow prescribed home treatments, including:
      • Medication administration
      • Dietary recommendations
      • Exercise regimens
      • Wound dressing application
      • Use of prosthetic devices

    Knowledge of Health Education

    • Evaluates the family's understanding of the health condition.

    Application of Principles of Personal and General Hygiene

    • Assesses the family's practices of general health promotion and preventive measures.

    Planning of Care

    • The planning stage involves:
      • Priority setting
      • Establishing goals and objectives
      • Determining relevant interventions
    • Priority setting involves determining the sequence in dealing with identified family needs and problems.
    • Family safety is the top priority when a life-threatening situation exists.
    • Family perception is the next priority, where the family's most urgent and important needs are addressed.

    Goal Setting

    • Goals should be realistic and consider the family's resources, the nurse's capabilities, and the health agency's limitations.

    Objectives

    • Objectives are specific steps the family takes to achieve their goals.
    • Well-stated objectives are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound (SMART).
    • Specific objectives clearly state who should perform which action.
    • Measurable objectives provide tangible evidence that the family has progressed towards a goal, enabling monitoring and evaluation.

    Developmental Interventions

    • Aim to improve the family's capacity to meet its own health needs
    • Focus on empowering families

    Implementing the Plan of Care

    • Involves the family and/or the nurse executing the plan of action
    • Focuses on helping family members meet health needs and address problems
    • Apathy (hopelessness and powerlessness)
    • Indecision
    • Nurses must investigate the underlying issues within the family to effectively address these barriers

    Written Communications and Rural Health Units

    • Written communication is used to convey specific information to families, such as instructions given to parents through school children.
    • The Rural Health Unit (RHU), also known as a health center, is a primary level health facility in the municipality.
    • The Municipal Health Officer (MHO) or rural health physician oversees health services at the municipal level.
    • The MHO is responsible for:
      • Preparing municipal health plans and budget.
      • Monitoring the implementation of basic health services.
      • Managing the RHU staff.
