Introduction:

As a community health worker, we provide basic community health care

services for promotion of health, prevention of illnesses, simple treatment and
rehabilitation. The services utilize the philosophy, content, method and skills of
public health care. While most nurses care for one patient at a time, public
health nurses care for entire population. By working with whole communities,
public health nurses are able to educate people about health issues, improve
community health and safety and increase access to care.
Being a NDP is far more than a job or even a career. It is an adventure, a
continuous learning process that I embark on bravely each day, in search of
life changing events and miracles. Touching the lives of every family in the
community is a treasure chest overflowing with the metamorphical gold,
whether the help provided is of great measure or remains unnoticed. Nursing is
more than a profession of integrity and compassion; it is a privilege that
measures out ones value as a human being and the responsibilities granted to
us NDPs with the precious gift of life.
