Asuncion, Davao del Norte. 14.45 % has a monthly income of 1001-2000 php,
13.67 % has 10000 php or above, 12.5 % has 2001-3000 php, 11.72 % has
4001-5000 php, 11.33 %has 50001- 7000 php, 10.55 % has 7001- 10000 php,
another 10.55 % has 3001-4000 php, 6.25% has 1000 php or below and 8.98 %

IMPLICATION
To live decently to sustain the needs of the members of the family, a
household should have a good income. This is a very crucial factor in building
and maintaining a healthy community. On the other hand, a monthly income of
6250 php can’t be considered sufficient to sustain a family of six.
As of 2006, poverty incidence in the Philippines is 40% of its population and
15.3 million Filipinos wake up without food in their table every morning. And an
average man would need 209 php a day to meet his needs (International Labour
Organization).

have an income lower than the minimum monthly income that a household
should have to sustain for a living.

project s or campaigns to compensate the masses needs for additional income.

Out of 256 assessed residents, 50.39% did not specify any weaning
alternatives.21.48% substituted breastfeeding with lugaw; 21.48% with lugaw
and only 15.23% resorted to lanot.
IMPLICATION:
Weaning is the process of introducing a baby to solid after being totally
dependent on breastmilk for their nutritional need of the first six months of life.
From an average weight of 3 kilos at birth’s weight increases almost to 5 kilos, at
the end of 3 months. In fact, from birth to 1 year is the time of fastest growth for
the baby. Milk alone cannot fully meet the baby’s needs and sustain this rapid
rate of growth,(www.greatoffers4u.com/article)
Recommendation:
1. Encourage mothers to start giving solid foods, to babes when they are around
six months old, while maintaining breastfeeding.
2. Introduce of small amount of pureed fruits and vegetable and gradually build
up to larger amounts of more solid food.
29
3. Mix solid food with breastmilk or formula milk.

IMPLICATION

weaning their children. Breast milk is widely acknowledged as the most complete
form of nutrition for infants, with a range of benefits for infants’ health, growth,
immunity and development. Breast milk is a unique nutritional source that cannot
be adequately be replaced by any other food, including infant formula.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Exclusive breastfeeding for approximately the first six months and
support for breastfeeding for the first year and beyond as long as
mutually desired by mother and child.
2. Mother and infant should sleep in proximity to each other to facilitate
breastfeeding.
31
3. Self-examination of mother’s breast for lumps is recommended
throughout lactation, not just after weaning.
4. Support efforts of parents and the courts to ensure continuation of
breastfeeding in cases of separation, custody and visitation.

simulate overfire conditions. Unprotected ceilings at 457 mm (18 in.) clearance
61

more concern of how and

where to eliminate them so
they just burn them.

Low Income
Criteria Computation Actual Score Justification
Nature of the
Problem1/3 x 1 0.33
It is a foreseeable crisis because
most family’s income is minimal
thus, cannot suffice their daily
needs. Their most priority is to at
least eat three meals a day.
Modifiability of
the Problem0/2 x 2 0
It is not modifiable through
nursing intervention, however, it
all depends to the members of
every household to work hard
and seek for government
assistance to have capital to
establish an income- generating
livelihood.
Preventive
Potential1/3 x 1 0.33
The family’s low income has low
preventive potential since the
main actor in uplifting one’s
economic status is one
household itself and hard work.
Salience ½ x 1 0.5 It is a problem but not needing an
immediate attention because
according to every household,
108
their priority is to at least eat
three times a day.

SUMMARY OF THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE
By: BSN3, 2009
Every journey has its distinct way of coming to an end. Our Community
Organizing Participatory Action Research (COPAR) exposure at Purok 1-4, Brgy.
Buclad, Asuncion, Davao del Norte – one of the SMC’s community extension
programs had reached its completion and marked the beginning of a realization
transformation.
Our journey with the residents of Brgy. Buclad will always be engraved in our
hearts. The whole experience was challenging, enlightening and educational.
We went through difficulties during the entire process but we learned a lot in
terms of going out of our comfort zones and be immersed and be witnesses of
the plight of the poor especially those who are materially and financially deprived.
We did experience how difficult it is to walk long distances under the
scorching heat of the sun as we made our visits and interviews from house to
house. But in spite of these, we found the experience very fulfilling and
meaningful.

The warm welcome of most of the residents of Brgy. Buclad was very
evident when we interacted with them as evidenced by their attentiveness,
eagerness and cooperation.
Our hearts were touched by their hospitability as they welcome us to their
humble doorsteps.
As we established rapport with the community residents, we were motivated
to give our best efforts in extending our health care assistance and services.
Despite of the difficulties we had encountered, we remained determined to
give the community residents the health care they need and they deserve.
At the end of our exposure, it was very overwhelming and satisfying knowing
that we helped a lot of people and we received a lot of warm “thank you” from the
community residents.
