TABLE OF CONTENTS
INTRODUCTION
Troughout the history, Community Health nursing have brought a lot of help for the health of the people in the community. They are the leaders who provide quality health services. They are knowledgeable about new public health technologies and methodoloies. And upon the arrival of the new programs and tcnologies, they are usually the first ones to be trained to implement it in the ommunity. But in oder for the public health nurses to continue the efficient and effective delivery of health care into the people, and for the commnity to receive the proper care that they really needed, it is very vital for the comunity health nurses to have a knowledge and full understanding of the coomunity within their care, knowledge that are up to date and factual. Those established knowledge will be used to diagnose its health threats that could eventually harm the health of the people. We all know that prevention is better than cure, and it is the major role of the community health nurses for the community and in order to prevent the health problems in the community, we need to know first the factors that would possibly cause those problems being familiar with the community and identifying its weaknesses would be the first thing to do. Every community in every corner of the country, even it is small or poor should be taken care like a mother to its child that loves and nurtures untill it can finally stand in its own.

Analysis
The table represents the total population of our respondents in Blocks A, B, C, D of the community in Macalinao Street. This shows that the major composition belongs to people with age group 1-4(11.53%) and 3034(13.5%). There are more females than males in the population.
Furthermore, knowing that we only have 24 household respondents, this population is considered large.
Implication
It is threathening that the number of peple who belongs to ages 1-4 is big, this means that the community have more mouths to feed and if the population is big, every family in the community will need a bigger budget in order to survive and meet the needs of every member, shortage in budget may arise and their health will suffer. Furthermore, the government will have difficulty in providing and attending to all health needs of the people because they will need a bigger budget.

The table represents the Percentage distribution of the civil status Of Individuals of Blk. A, B, C, D of Macalinao Street. It indicates that majority of them are married.
Implication
Having a high percent of married individuals in the population would result a great impact to the growth of population in the community. There is a posibility of an increased number of pregnant women. There will be a higher need for a more comprehenssive programs regarding family planning and maternal and child care.

The table represents the percentage distribution of the occupational status of the productive individuals of the community. 22.7 percent of them are employed while 33.3 percent are self employed. All in all 60 percent of the productive groups have occupation.44percent of the productive individuals didnt have occupation. There is no retired indvidual in the area that we have surveyed.
Implication
Only 60 percent of the productive groups have occupation,maybe some of them are busy doing something such as studying or maybe some of them didnt work at all. Still, having a high percentage of unemployment rate is no good for a community. These will worsten the experienced poverty that affects the health of the people. 33 percent of the productive individuals are self-employed, its a good implication because it indicates that people in this areaare good in income generating activities, they can think and do some ways to gain income in order to compensate the effect of difficulty in finding jobs. There arer no retired individual in this community maybe because all of them still works untill the eldest age in the occupational bracket. This data may be interpretted in both positive and negative ways. It can be viewed positively inn a way that people, in their old age still can find ways to generate income in order to help and contribute to the budget of the family. It may be viewed negatively in a way that people, even in their old age where they are
supposed to be resting, relaxing and taking care of their health only, still works because of shortage in family budget.

Analysis
The table represents the percentage distribution of the occupation of earning individuals it states that the major occupation of the respondents are either laborer or vendor, 42.85 percent are belongs to laborers and 57.14 percent are vendors.
Implication
The type of occupation dictates the amount of salary and budget an individual has for his family. Given that the major occupations of the productive individuals in this community are vendors or laborers, this means that sickness will affect their jobs greatly as well as their salary. There is a high posibility that they didt have spared budget in case of health emergencies.

Analysis The table represents the percentage distribution of the average income of earning individuals, it states that the highest percentage belongs to the income of P1,000 to P2,999 per month. Only 7.14 percent of them has an income of P15,000 and above. Implication We all know that income plays a very important role in the life and health of every individual. It is not a good implication that most of the respondents income is only P1,000 to P2,999 a month. It is below the minimum wage and too little to meet the basic needs of the family. A family with this amount of income will surely have difficulties in meeting their needs to live normally and healthy. There will be shortage of budget for food as well as nutrients that would help an individuals body to attain good health and resistance to diseases. And in case of emergency or sickness, surely, there will be no budget for hospitalization and medicine.

Analysis
respondents who are high school graduates. Individuals that reached elementary level only and highschool level only have the same percentage (20.19 percent).
The table indicates that only few individuals have attained a good education only, 10.57 percent have graduated from college
Implication
The perception of an individual about health is greatly affected by the level of education an individual has. People with higher education have more understanding about their health and how to manage it. People that have attained a higher level of education can find a more decent job that yields good income, good enough to meet the daily needs to live and to live healthy. It is threatening for the health of the residents of this community because only three, out of them are college graduates.

The table represents the percentage distribution of the religion of individuals surveyed. This shows that all of the respondents in the community are Catholic, the primary religion of most Filipinos.
Implication
Religion is very important in determining the health of the community. It has a very vital role in our everydaylife and health. Others entrust the improvement and maintenance of their good health to prayers, most of the people kneel and pray during times of sickness. Catholic is the prevalent religion in the community, it is a good implication because it respects what medicine can do as well as prayers for the maintenance and improvement of good health.

Its a good implication because they said that they cover those bottles that contain their drinking water. It is a healthy practice because this will prevent the contamination of their drinking water. In addition to that, they wil have a stored clean drinking water in case of shortage and emergency. Drinking water directly from the faucet is a health threat because there will be a posibility for them to acquire water bourne diseases.

Breastfeeding is very important and helpfull especially to families who dint have spare budget in case that the health of their infant declined due to illness or improper
nutrition. Furthermore, it can help to save the money that would otherwise be spent buying artificial milk.

The table represents the percentage distribution of the leading causes of morbidity in families surveyed. It shows that 64.8 percent ofn them experienced Upper Respiratory Tract Infection, 5.6 percent of them experienced arthritis while Hypertension and skin infection both got 14.8 percent.
Implication The data above implies that URTI is the prevailing type of morbidity in the community. It is maybe one of the effects of being a congested community and also from lack of proper hygiene. And because their houses are built very near to one another, they can easily transmit the infection from their neighbors.

Summary of Findings From the data yielded by the researchers instrument, the researchers summarized the following:
1. The major composition belongs to people with age group 1-4(11.53%) and 30- 34(13.5%). There are more females than males in the population.
2. Majority of the people ages 15 and above are married. 3. 60 percent of the productive groups in the community have occupation. 4. the major occupation of the respondents are either laborer or vendor,
19.

Conlusion
After being able to conduct our ocular inspection and interpret and analyze the gathered data, the researchers concluded that the community in Macalinao Street still didnt resemble the picture of an ideal community. We have observed that the number of household and famikly is too big for the size of their land area thus, it is considered as a congested area. Given that their houses are so close to one another, a communicable disese either carried by a vehicle or airbourne can spread easily in their neighborhood and also fire can easily spread and burn the whole community. Their drainage system is not functioning well. It is blocked by garbagethe water in it is so dirty and has afoul smelling odor.

NARRATIVE REPORT
November 26, 2009, our orientation day in Meycauayan Health Department. Our group came late for about 30 minutes because we did not anticipate that the City Hall was transferred in the middle of somewhere. The inspectors including our Clinical Instructor, Mr. Jose Karlo M. Pangan were very strict when it comes too the uniform especially for the girls. They were very much concerned for the safety of the students. At the City Hall, we knew the mission and vision of Meycauayan Health Department and many more. After the orientation, the different groups finally met their respective Clinical Instructors. Luckily, the CI assigned to us was Sir Karlo who is based in Calvario Health Center. He oriented us about what to expect in that community and the activities that we were about to do. After we had our lunch, we proceeded to the Health Center. Sir Karlo told us that the area of our responsibility will be Macalinao Street. That afternoon, we conducted an ocular inspection and the spot map of that area. For the first time, we met the people of Macalinao. After that, we finished our spot map. Sir Karlo ended the day by telling us the activities for tomorrow. November 27, the Vaccination Day. We arrived early in the morning to the point that the Health Center was still closed. Mothers carrying their cute babies started to come. We listed the names of the babies who came first in line so that there will be no arguments when it comes to who will be served
first. We became busy when the Health Center was opened. Some of us were assigned to the records, some in vital signs taking and the others in vaccination. When all of the patients have been served, we got the time to rest for a while and then we had our lunch. After the lunch, we verified if the spot map we made is correct. We spent some of our time on the seminar conducted by the 105 students. We went home with smiles on our faces. December 3, Surveying Day. We surveyed 24 families in Macalinao Street. From that survey, we were able to know the problems of the community when it comes to their health. We started tallying the data that we have gathered. Although tired, we enjoyed the moment the moment when Sir Karlo conducted a mini game called Ice Breaker. December 4, our last day of community duty in Calvario. We continued the tallying of data. After we had the results, we started analyzing it and we gave the implications that may arise. Then we determined the problems that we saw by observation and by the results of the data gathered. We started to prioritize problems by giving scores to them. Based on the results, we made our individualized Community Health Program Planning. After the making of the CHPP, we had a short quiz and some picture taking ended the day. Many thanks to Sir Karlo for the knowledge and skills he shared to us not only in the profession but the advices and insights that he gave us.
