The Prioritized Health Problems

1. No Portable Water
2. Poor environmental Sanitation
3. Family Conflict
4. Pregnancy

Three things I learned:

1. I’ve learned how to properly assess the family with the use of Family Data Analysis techniques.
2. I’ve also learned how to categorize health problems according to factors affecting priority status.
3. I’ve learned how to do proper computation and justifying the scores of different family health
problems.

Two things I’d like to learn more about:

1. I’d like to learn more about how to identify the family nursing care problem with its second level
assessment.
2. I’d like to learn how to apply appropriate interventions and make an NCP on different family health
problems.

One question I still have:
