3. INTRODUCTION
Health is the fundamental right of every individual. In line with this, the lawmakers
assembled Republic Act No. 9173 or the Philippine Act of 2002 to be the core reference among
Filipino nurses in promoting health, preventing illness, alleviation of suffering and restoration of
health or if not possible, assistance towards a peaceful death. Nurses are considered practicing
their profession when they initiate and perform nursing services to individual, families and
communities in any healthcare setting.
Community health nursing is the expanded scope of the nursing practice dealing not only with
individuals and families but more significantly on how the community perceive and resolve their
own problems. It is seen as the primary client of the nurse for two important reasons. First, the
community has a direct influence on the health of the individual, families and sub- populations.
Second it is at this level that most health service provision occurs (Spradley, 1990). Thus,
community health nursing is a learned practice discipline with the ultimate goal of contributing
as individuals, and in collaboration with others to the promotion of the community’s optimum
level of functioning through teaching and delivery of care (Jacobson).
Caring for the community starts with determining their health status through data collection in
order to identify the different factors that may directly or indirectly influence them. Analysis to
seek explanation for the occurrence of health needs and problems of the community will be
crucial in developing and implementing community health nursing interventions and strategies.
This is the context of community diagnosis, be it comprehensive or problem oriented. It aims to
explain the interrelationship of the different elements such as the population, the physical and
topographical characteristics, socioeconomic and cultural factors, health and basic social
services and the power structure within the community in the health and illness pattern in the
community.
Comprehensive community diagnosis aims to obtain general information about the community
and identify health problems affecting the people while problem- oriented community diagnosis
focuses on a specific problem already present in the community that needs to be resolved by
the people of the community
