 Introduction
A community is a social group determined by geographical boundaries, living
together to attain certain common goals and sharing the same values and interests.
Community Organizing Participatory Action Research is a vital part of public health
nursing. COPAR aims to transform the apathetic, individualistic, and voiceless poor
into a dynamic, participatory, and politically responsive community.

The College of Nursing - Third-Year students from Our Lady of Fatima

University – Nueva Ecija Campus conducted its Community Organizing and
Participatory Action Research (COPAR) at Brgy. Entablado, Cabiao as part of their
requirement in CHN 312. The students researched to determine the deficiencies of
the community and find out ways that can be done to improve the community’s
condition. The collaboration of barangay officials, health workers, nursing
students, and professors will hopefully give a lasting impact on every family and
community about their health as they will gain knowledge and competencies to
have self-reliance in achieving a good state of well-being.

 GENERAL OBJECTIVES:
Community Health Nursing aims to enhance the health and
well-being of local communities by empowering citizens
to engage directly in their own health care activities. This
also includes the following objectives:

✓ To increase the capability of the community to deal with

their own health problems.
✓ To prevent and control communicable and non-
communicable diseases.
✓ To provide specialized services.
✓ To promote, protect and preserve the health of the
community.
✓ To educate the community about managing chronic
conditions and making healthy choices.

 SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:
The common problem in the community is waste
segregation, thus our specific objective in COPAR is it
centers on striving the community to conduct a waste
segregation in order for them to separate the
biodegradable and non-biodegradable that could
help in avoiding harm and such diseases.
 Methodology
Mixed methods approach was used to provide a rigorous methodological
foundation for community organizing participatory action research (COPAR) by
combining qualitative method with quantitative outcome-based oriented
approaches for developing evidence-based, scientifically sound and client-
centered plans for improvement. We used mixed-methods research as it gives us a
more comprehensive insight into a research problem than can be provided by the
qualitative or quantitative approach alone. Mixed-methods research is often
referred to as pragmatic as it applies two research approaches that have distinct
designs and are based a different philosophical/ theoretical underpinning.
Scope and Delimitation of the study
The community research committee had experienced some lapses in conducting
research work and these are the following reasons:
1. Some areas within the boundary of Brgy. Entablado were not covered due
pandemic crisis.
2. Some of the household residents were unavailable for interview due to
pandemic crisis.
3. Not all families and households were included in the study as the sole
recipients of this program only those who are available for interview were
taken into account.

 Causes and Possible
Solutions
Poverty is one of the factors that lead to health problems
in the community. Due to poverty, a lot of children are not
able to sustain their nutritional needs, which can result in
severe malnutrition. And also, due to financial problems,
a lot of people cannot afford to seek medical
consultations and medical treatment.

The possible solutions for these are to prioritize and

secure the basic needs of the community particularly their
needs in terms of health problems prevention. And as part
of Community Health Nursing, we can conduct health
teaching programs that promote a healthy lifestyle for the
residents. And we need to encourage them to participate
to assess and to resolve their health problems.
 Solutions to the needs of the

Causes and possible solutions

Lack of financial assistance

Lack of safety amenities and

 Problem Prioritization

All problems found in the community need to

seek immediate action and intervention, but
we believe that the most alarming situation in
the community is the increasing number of
dengue cases, malnutrition, and diarrhea.
