HEADLINE FINDINGS
Health Attitudes
Good Wellness Lack of Disease
Being Mature Having Inadequate Health
Health Services Indication Management
Tandrusti is designed to task these Wellness Attitudes
Health Awareness Distinction between wellness details and
wellness awareness
Awareness of individual wellness creating after analysis or risk of illness or sickness
The need for contextualised and appropriate wellness details and promotion
Accessing health Information Higher Literacy Level = better access wellness
details
Over 65s = poor access wellness information
GP main source and gatekeepers to other services
90% preferred ‘interactive’ wellness details to leaflets, books.
Disparity in perceived and actual healthiness of diet Knowing consuming healthily is quite good
Importance of consuming healthily is recognized but not practiced
Steady social move and education required to change prolonged habits
Food brands are very rarely followed by all groups questioned
Raising motivation and having positive role models Inspiration towards training with Tandrusti is high
Motivation towards cook was low
Lack of positive heroines and support
Being Healthy= Major changes and a Big Task, Tandrusti is designed to encourage students through a helpful health knowledge strategy
Dispelling subjective interpretations of recommended physical activity

No. of Tandrusti Students using services
Health Service Use Attention of solutions is quite inadequate, reducing
accessibility and result.
GP is the preferred service, fulfillment is quite high with GP but low with consultation system
Older Southern Oriental sufferers have low objectives from the services
‘Veterinary consultations’ if interaction is inadequate between wellness solutions and patient
Cultural Factors and Health Average details of personal health by Southeast Asian
women problem for large opinions like Census
‘Purdah’ (veiling) a barrier to popular training for Islamic women, Tandrusti provides a culturally appropriate service for this team. More young women coming ahead as a result.
Tandrusti has broken some social misunderstandings through mixed sex exercise sessions, snorkeling classes.
Mental Health Psychological and actual illness can be connected,
easier to talk about actual symptoms
Poor mental wellness = Social, emotional malfunction so negative to be shared outside family
Mental wellness services need to understand particulars of social standards and their impact on attitude and behaviour
Tandrusti’s Impact Decreased Blood stream Stress numbers in over 90% of
learners Improved Position, Balance and Versatility in learners Awareness of the effect of work out on the body Improved Self Confidence Emotional assistance and public media through arranged
exercise Motivation to increase health awareness Challenging public norms/stereotypes through combined
sex classes Exercise made fun and less task like has grown
participation Willingness to get involved in further group communication
activities
Tandrusti Activity Plan depending on findings Improving attention of suggested Strength and Regularity of actual
activity Physical Action beyond the Tandrusti class Raising attention of incorporated exercising (at home/work etc) Signposting to other health/education solutions (particularly
psychological health) Learner led actual activity Setting up Extra Classes/ equipment Provision and assessment of appropriate wellness
