INTRODUCTION

Health is the fundamental right of every individual. In line with this, the lawmakers assembled Republic Act No. 9173 or the Philippine Act of 2002 to be the core reference among Filipino nurses in promoting health, preventing illness, alleviation of suffering and restoration of health or if not possible, assistance towards a peaceful death. Nurses are considered practicing their profession when they initiate and perform nursing services to individual, families and communities in any healthcare setting.

Community health nursing is the expanded scope of the nursing practice dealing not only with individuals and families but more significantly on how the community perceive and resolve their own problems. It is seen as the primary client of the nurse for two important reasons. First, the community has a direct influence on the health of the individual, families and sub- populations. Second it is at this level that most health service provision occurs (Spradley, 1990). Thus, community health nursing is a learned practice discipline with the ultimate goal of contributing as individuals, and in collaboration with others to the promotion of the community’s optimum level of functioning through teaching and delivery of care (Jacobson).

Caring for the community starts with determining their health status through data collection in order to identify the different factors that may directly or indirectly influence them. Analysis to seek explanation for the occurrence of health needs and problems of the community will be crucial in developing and implementing community health nursing interventions and strategies. This is the context of community diagnosis, be it comprehensive or problem oriented. It aims to explain the interrelationship of the different elements such as the population, the physical and topographical characteristics, socioeconomic and cultural factors, health and basic social services and the power structure within the community in the health and illness pattern in the community.

Comprehensive community diagnosis aims to obtain general information about the community and identify health problems affecting the people while problem- oriented community diagnosis focuses on a specific problem already present in the community that needs to be resolved by the people of the community

BARANGAY HISTORY

The narrow streets are also crowded with plenty children, street vendors and vehicles are park on either side. The roads have many slopes. The roads have many trash or garbage, open canals, exposed water lines, and stray dogs and their animal excreta. Many of the houses are made of light and mix materials and are usually very close to their neighbors. The electric cables are very disturbing sights since they are bundled together. These connections of electric cables are the usual causes of fires in many communities.

The area despite being in the city, have plenty of trees. Block 36 has a “talipapa” or small market place where in resident buys their everyday supplies. This is good for the residents because they can save more if they do the marketing and cooking for themselves. Markets like Martinez Flea Market are also located at Brgy. Addition Hills.

The residents of Block 36 go to Panatag Health Center. A day are center is located in the 2nd floor of block 37 HC. This is good for the residents since they can buy medicines near their houses. Other establishments like Water Refilling Station, Barbershop, Parlor, Lotto Outlets, Police Station, are also inside the Barangay Addition Hills.

The climate in the area is like the rest of Manila, humid with wet and dry seasons. Tagalog is the primary dialect spoken and tricycles are the primary mode of transportation in block 37 since its small built is favorable to the narrow roads in the area.
