Reflection on community visit
Today, the first community visit to our class third semester was in the younisabad
area. The purpose of our community visit was to collecting health related data from the
community, guide the people about health maintenance, identify the health related problems
of the people there, and tell them the solution of their problem and setting up a community
camp here according to community needs. Our class and two teachers left college at 10am for
younisabad. When we arrived at the basic health unit of younisabad, I saw that the building
was in a very bad condition. Only three staff were present on duty there, they did not have
any facilities to handle the patient in emergency condition.
Our entire class was erected in a room and the community officer gave us brief
overview about the area, about the community, about the most common disease were there.
After that we started the visit of the area with our teachers. I saw that the streets were rough,
there was a poor cleaning system. There were piles of garbage in the streets. Most of the
Sindhi community lived there and their profession was fishing. There was only one primary
school whose condition was very bad and there was no maternity home that reason there most
common issue in women was tetanus. People did not have clean water, they were arranged
clean water from own money expenditure. Dirreahea is most common problem in children.
My feeling that, the people there was not being provided with good health services,
and the people of this community not aware about the health maintenance, disadvantages of
unhygienic condition and how to prevent from diseases.
I analyze that if there was a maternity hospital, so there tetanus cases, maternal/infant
mortality/morbidity rate of this community could have been very little. If the basic health
officers arranged workshops and guide people, so many diseases could have been prevented
from spreading.

I also noticed that in basic health unit staff was very short. Only one health unit for
such a large population. The head of the heath unit did not even matter that there was no
emergency facilities. The people there were not so conscious that they could raise their voice
for their basic needs.
Our action plan was that our class arranged workshop on maternal health care within
the basic health unit. Arranged demo-workshop, presentation and let the children know how
to stay clean by washing hands and eating clean food can prevent disease. When we know the
health problems of the people there, we will arrange a community camp for the people there.
If the health workers and nurses understand that nursing is a challenging profession as
dealing with people’s lives need a lot of coverage. Nurse is care giver, coordinator, advocator
and counselor. Nurse’s observation, assessment and timely intervention can impact patient’s
life significantly vice versa lack of these skills can risk patient’s life. The conclusion of this
that if the health worker and government do their job well, so not only this area but disease
can be avoided throughout the country.
