The document discusses two potential health threats: 1) Inadequate sleep and rest for a mother, which can affect her health and immune system but is difficult for her to modify her personal habits. It has moderate preventative potential. 2) The presence of breeding sites for disease vectors like mosquitoes, which can cause diseases like dengue. This is easily modifiable as the family is willing to eradicate the vectors and preventable through simple nursing interventions if the family cooperates. Neither problem is perceived as salient by the family.

TOTAL SCORE
Presence of breeding sites of vectors of diseases as a health threat CRITERIA COMPUTATION ACTUAL SCORE JUSTIFICATION It is a health threat because mosquito and other vectors of diseases can cause dengue among the family members.
1. Nature of the Problem
x1
2. Modifiability of the Problem
x2
The problem is easily modifiable because the family shows willingness to eradicate the mosquitoes and other vectors of disease.
