COMMUNITY DIAGNOSIS
Bernabe Compound, Pulang Lupa UnoBlock 30,31 and 32
I. INTRODUCTION
Community health nursing is one of the two major fields of nursing in the Philippines; the other is hospital nursing. It is a professional practice with the primary goal of promotion and preservation of the health of its clients- the individuals, families and groups. The practice of community health nursing is comprehensive, general, continual and not episodic by integrating the skills and knowledge relevant to both nursing and public health.
In community health nursing, the population as a whole or the community is the primary concern as it directly affects the health of individuals and families. A community is a group of people sharing common geographic boundaries and/or common values and interests. Every community is unique as it functions within a particular socio-cultural context and is regarded as an organism with its own stage of development. Caring for the community as a client starts with determining its health status. A community assessment or situational analysis called community diagnosis is a tool that would help the nurse assess the community’s health status in order to determine the existing and predisposing health problems and health-related problems in the community.
There are two types of community diagnosis: comprehensive community diagnosis and problem-oriented community diagnosis. The comprehensive community diagnosis aims to obtain general information about the community. It is used to assess the present condition or health status of the entire community in order to determine what the community needs. The problem-oriented community diagnosis is done when the community is encountering or facing a specific problem like a disaster situation or an outbreak of diseases. It responds to a particular need to identify the existing health problem and the factors aggravating it. This community diagnosis that the researchers made is problem-oriented.
To be successful in the provision of health care services, the nurse must identify the different factors such as the socio-economic, socio- cultural, political and environmental factors that could directly and indirectly influence the health status of the community. Then a nurse would proceed to the analysis of the data gathered to search for the explanations of the occurrence of the existing health problems. It should be followed by the planning of actions and interventions to solve the identified problems. This process is called a community diagnosis.
The researchers identified problems or conditions affecting the health status of the community which will be discussed in the planned Community Assembly. An implementation of a proposed action plan was enacted in the third week of exposure to remedy the problems identified in the study.
METHODOLOGY
The Gantt Chart served as a guide for the researchers in order to track the progress of their activities during the span of the community diagnosis. It helped the researchers plan and schedule the tasks needed to be accomplished on a specific period of time. In gathering data for the study, the researchers utilized a survey tool that based on the elements of comprehensive community diagnosis according to Araceli S. Maglaya in her book entitled, “Nursing Practice in the Community”. Key Informant Interview, Community Survey Tool and Ocular Survey were utilized by the researchers to collect and gather the pertinent data needed for the study. These tools and method paved way in obtaining sufficient and reliable information from the involved residents of the community. Prior to conducting the survey, the researchers sought the approval of the homeowner’s president to gain access to the community. They identified first the area and the scope of population study. The said methods were performed during the first 2 days of exposure followed by a thorough assessment of the significant attributes in the community.
Different strategies were employed in order for the researchers to have an efficient and equitable data gathering. The group marked the homes that have been surveyed with green stickers bearing the corresponding control number on the Community Survey Tool. A sticker is placed on the upper right portion of the doors or gates per family. In line with this, the researchers used a white colored sticker located on the same site were the green stickers are usually attached marked with letter R- meaning the family refused to be interviewed ; and NI – for those homes whose residents were not available during the survey due to certain conditions like work. There is a quota of 10 families assigned to each member of the group. The survey interview provided the researchers first-hand information through open-ended questions. These allowed the interviewer obtain detailed data for additional implications and evaluations. Another method used was observation. Through direct observation, home and environmental conditions and behavioral responses were assessed.
After data collection, the researchers then tallied all the data that were acquired during the interviews then created tables and figures which showed the frequency and percentage of the results. These results were then interpreted and analyzed as to its implications on the health status of the community and to determine the actual and potential problems in the community.
STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
General Objective: The study aims to assess the health condition of the community, identify
common community health problems and Implement courses of action to improve the health status in the community.
Specific Objectives: Establish rapport with the community people to gain their support and cooperation. Determine the geographical characteristics of the community. Assess the community through collection of the following data: Demographic Data Socioeconomic, Cultural, and Environmental data Health Practices and Awareness Health Resources Analyze and interpret the collected data. Identify and prioritize actual and potential health problems in the community. Organize a community assembly to be able to relay the results of the study to the
community. Formulate an implementation program to alleviate the identified problem in the
community.
LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
This community diagnosis concentrated on the health status of the community which encompassed Blocks 30-32 of Bernabe Compound, Pulang Lupa 1, Las Pinas City which included demographic data, history, socio-economic indicators, geographical boundaries, & environmental aspects.

HISTORY
Bernabe compound was created in 1990. It was commissioned by the National Housing Authority ( NHA) to relocate 10 families from Pulo, Coastal. The original homes of these 10 families were demolished, hence the relocation. Prior to relocation, the NHA conducted a census among the residents of Pulo. Those included in the census were relocated to Bernabe. Bernabe composed of 40 blocks covering 10 hectares of land. The average sizes of the houses in the area are 40 sq. m with the exception of those homes located at the sides of the compound, which can range 40 -57 sq. m. The residents pay a monthly fee from the land, and they will receive its papers after full payment of the total due. Romy Vilnade was the first head resident among the original 10 families in Bernabe. The selection of the head resident is done through an election, which is held after the local elections. The residents also have the option of selling half of their land, just as long as they can pay the monthly due, which can explain why there are homes that share the same lot number the present, foreigners and seamen own most of the land in Bernabe compound.
