This document discusses several family social science theories used in family health care:
1. Duvall's family developmental theory outlines eight stages of the family life cycle and basic tasks associated with each stage. It can be used to assess and plan care for families based on their developmental stage.
2. Friedman's structural-functional theory examines a family's structure including values, communication, roles, and power structure. It also looks at the functional components like emotional support and socialization. This theory assesses how changes to a family's structure or function can impact health.
3. Aguilera and Messick's crisis intervention model views crises as events disrupting a family's equilibrium. Three balancing factors

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon mastery of this slides, you should be able to:
◆ Analyze changing definitions of family.
◆ Discuss characteristics all families have in common.
◆ Identify five attributes that help explain how families function as social systems.
◆ Discuss how a family’s culture influences its values, behaviors, prescribed roles,
and distribution of power.
◆ Compare and contrast the variety of structures that make up families.

as it grows.
◆ Analyze the role of the community health nurse in promoting the health of the
family unit.
The Kenya Essential Package for Health (KEPH) introduced six life-cycle cohorts and six service delivery levels in the year2006.
Central to this is the recognition and introduction of level 1 service at the community, which aimed at empowering Kenyan households and communities to take charge of improving their own health in line with Primary Health care
This strategy also aims at creating community demand for level 2 to 6 health services
Communities are linked to the health facilities by the community health worker(CHW) who report to s and refers clients to the community health extension worker ( CHEW) based at the static level 1 health facility
evaluation studies has shown that this strategy has been able to reduce the global health indicators in the country

Conclusion
Families with People/Children/ Elders with Special Numerous are Learn for Fa...hemurathore1
Family- A family is a group of two people or more (one of whom is the householder) related by birth, marriage, or adoption and residing together; all such people (including related subfamily members) are considered as members of one family.
Family group- A family group is any two or more people (not necessarily including a householder) residing together, and related by birth, marriage, or adoption. A household may be composed of one such group, more than one, or none at all. The count of family groups includes family households, related subfamilies, and unrelated subfamilies.
Family household- A family household is a household maintained by a householder who is in a family and includes any unrelated people who may be residing there. The number of family households is equal to the number of families. The count of family household members differs from the count of family members, however, in that the family household members include all people living in the household, whereas family members include only the householder and his/her relatives.
A family dynamic is the scheme of family members’ relations and interactions including many prerequisite elements (family arrangements, hierarchies, rules, and patterns of family interactions).
Each family is unique in its characteristics; having several helpful and unhelpful dynamics. Family dynamics will ultimately influence the way young people view themselves/others and the world. It will also impact their relationships/behaviors and their future wellbeing.
“Family dynamics is the complement to the static or structural component of a family.”

FAMILY AND MARRIAGE FAMILY AND MARRIAGE.pptxPRADEEP ABOTHU
Inside the Unit:
Family – characteristics, basic need, types and functions of family.
Marriage – forms of marriage, social custom relating to marriage and importance of marriage.
Legislation on Indian marriage and family.
Influence of marriage and family on health and health practices.
Among all human groups, the family stands out as the paramount primary group, constituting the simplest and most fundamental form of society. This foundational unit holds unparalleled significance as it is within the family that an individual, especially a child, develops their fundamental attitudes and values. Beyond its simplicity, the family nurtures enduring relationships, forming a small social group typically comprising a father, mother, and one or more children. The term "Family" itself, derived from the Roman word "Famulus" meaning a servant, underscores the historical and linguistic roots that emphasize its integral role in societal structures.
A family is a social unit characterized by close relationships, shared bonds, and mutual support among its members. It typically includes individuals connected by blood, marriage, or adoption, forming a fundamental group that plays a central role in the socialization, emotional well-being, and support of its members.
Family is a group defined by a sex relationship sufficiently precise and enduring to provide for the procreation and upbringing of children. -Maclver
Family is a more or less durable association of husband and wife with or without children or of a man or women alone, with children. - Nimkoff
Mating Relationship: A family originates with the establishment of a mating relationship between a man and a woman. This foundational connection forms the basis for the family unit's existence.
Form of Marriage: The mating relationship is formalized through the institution of marriage. Marriage serves as a societal and legal framework that solidifies the bond between partners, providing structure and recognition to the family.
System of Nomenclature: Each family is identified by a specific name and maintains a system of reckoning descent. Descent may be traced through either the male or female line, contributing to the family's unique identity and heritage.
Economic Provision: The head of the family typically engages in a specific profession, earning income to sustain the family. This economic provision is essential for meeting the family's material needs and ensuring a suitable standard of living.
Common Habitation (Surroundings): A family requires a shared dwelling or household for its residence. The presence of a home provides a conducive environment for childbearing and child-rearing, fostering a sense of stability and belonging within the family.
Emotional Bonds: Families are characterized by close emotional bonds among their members, forming a support system that contributes to the overall well-being and mental health of each family member.
Roles and Responsibilities: Distinct roles and responsibilities are

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
