    The document discusses the health issues facing children in the isolated mountain community of Sitio Mabolon, which has limited access to government services and healthcare. Two case studies are presented: a child whose parents resorted to spiritual healing due to the lack of medical professionals, and an HIV-positive malnourished child living in unsanitary conditions without access to proper food or healthcare. As a health worker, proposed solutions include establishing a local clinic, restructuring agricultural lands to improve access to food, and providing a community fund for monthly supplies of basic necessities.

    4th Online Activity - Awareness

    1. What are the different problems have you identified upon reading the conditions of the
    children in Sitio Mabolon?
    - The apparent problems in sitio mabolon is that first of all their access to
    government welfare services are limited due to their location being fairly isolated
    and within the mountains. It is also clear that the malnutrition of the children are
    caused by lack of access to medicare and food.

    2. What are the conditions of the community and its people as reflected in the situations of
    Nene and Tito?
    - The first case in relation to nene was due to the lack of medical professionals
    present in their community which lead to the resortment of nene’s parents into
    spiritual superstition healing called the albularyo. The second case being that tito
    who was HIV positive and malnutritioned was living in an environment where
    basic necessities such as proper sanitation and healthy food were not available
    which led to tito’s health to deteriorate.

    3. If you are a health worker in the center, what steps can you propose in response to the
    concerns you have enumerated?
    - I would propose a local clinic that would have all the basic medical prescriptions
    and tools to ensure that everyone in the community is healthy and so that they
    would resort less to traditional superstition. I would also suggest a restructuring of
    the agricultural landmass of the area in order to benefit and reap the rewards that
    come with it. Lastly a fund for their monthly community supply of foods and
    other basic necessities.

    4. What project regarding awareness can you propose if Sitio Mabolon is your assigned
    community?
    - I would conduct health outreach programs that would include basic seminary talks
    to the local community on how they can improve their state of health in terms of
    malnutrition and other diseases.
