March 2010 Acknowledgement The students would like to extend their profound gratitude to the following people who have generously shared their help in the completion of this study: First and foremost, God Almighty for giving us unending intelligence and strength to finish every task to facilitate and is dedicated for us to finish. Our parents for providing us their never ending support in this study. And last but not the least, to our clinical instructor, Mr. Nyl Rafols Patangan, RN, who is never weary of providing us encouragement and guidance all throughout the making of this study. He has always been accessible and approachable every time when we are in need of help.

Dedication This family nursing care plan is intended for the improvement and betterment in terms of health of our host family, the Atienzas. We dedicate this presentation to their family who gave us their cooperation and whole-heartedly accepted our favour of giving us an ample amount of time for us to conduct our interviews and for responding to us with complete honesty. We give our full efforts to make this care plan the best and most appropriate one to improve their health. Lastly we ask God, the Father Almighty to always guide the Atienzas in their future endeavours more practically in the terms of their health.

Abstract A family nursing care plan is the blue print of the care that the nurse designs to systematically minimize or eliminate the identified health and family nursing problems through explicitly formulated outcomes of care (goals and objectives) nd deliberately chosen set of interventions, resources and evaluation criteria standards, methods and tools. Features of Family Nursing Care Plan: 1. The nursing care plan focuses on actions which are designed to solve or minimize existing problem. The plan is a blueprint for action. The core of the plan are the approaches, strategies, activities, methods and materials which the nurse hopes will improve the problem situation. 2. The nursing care plan is a product of a deliberate systematic process. the planning process is characterized by logical analyses of data that are put together to arrive at rational decisions. The interventions the nurse decides to implement are chosen from among alternatives after careful analysis and weighing of available options. 3. The nursing care plan, as with all plans, relates to the future. It utilizes events in the past and what is happening in the present to determine patterns. It also projects the future scenario if the current situation is not corrected. 4. The nursing care plan is based upon identified health and nursing problems. The problems are the starting points for the plan, and the foci of the objectives of care and intervention measures. 5. The nursing care plan is a means to an end, not an end in itself. The goal in planning is to deliver the most appropriate care to the client by eliminating barriers to family health development. 6. Nursing care planning is a continuous process, not a one-shot-deal. The results of the evaluation of the plans effectiveness trigger another cycle of the planning process until the health and nursing problems are eliminated.

A family nursing care plan is the blue print of the care that the nurse designs to systematically minimize or eliminate the identified the identified health and family nursing problems through explicitly formulated outcomes of care (goals and objectives) nd deliberately chosen set of interventions, resources and evaluation criteria standards, methods and tools. The use of the family nursing process will result in a care plan describing the needs and care for each client. An organized sequence of problem solving steps used to identify and to manage the health problems of clients. II. Background of the Study A. Study Locale About Barangay Talon Dos Barangay Talon Dos in the City of Las Pias was created on April 3, 1978 by virtue of Presidentiable Decree No. 1335 signed by then President Ferdinand Marcos. Predominantly Residential Components The decree ordered that the subdivisions of BF resort, Sta. Cecilia, Sarino, Mother Earth and Camella be detached from the mother Barangay Talon to form Barangay Talon Dos. Today this Barangay is composed of 26 residential villages and sectors. Demography

Talon Dos is one of the twenty barangays of Las Pias City with a population of 47, 479 (2007 PopGen) and land area of 391.61 hectares. It is situated on the southern side of the midsection of Las Pias. It is bounded on the north by ZapoteAlabang Road and Barangay Pamplona Dos; on the west by the Zapote River, Bacoor, and Cavite; on the east by Barangay Talon Cuatro and on the south by Barangay Talon Cinco. Health and Sanitation Barangay Talon Dos provides health and nutrition and social welfare services such as the Barangay Health Centers and Days Care Centers.

Barangay Health Centers Two health centers are found in BF Resort Village and Barangay Hall compound provide primary health care for minor medical and dental problems, immunizations and pre-natal care. Day Care Centers A Day Care Center is a community work place facility providing a full range of health, nutrition, early education, psychosocial and other services to children below 6 years old. Day care centers in Talon Dos are found in Carnival Park A and B, Manggahan, Satima and Vatican Dulo River Side. Feeding and Multivitamin Enhancement A barangay nutrition scholar and barangay health workers provide primary delivery of nutrition information and services in the community together with the regular feeding and multivitamin supplementation programs of the committee on health and sanitation. Anti-Rabies Vaccination To protect dogs and humans from the ill-effects of rabies, the barangay, in the cooperation with the Department of Agriculture conducts annual anti-rabies vaccination of dogs. Waste Management

The proper management of solids and wastes protects public health and the environment; thus; Barangay Talon Dos does its part by composting and bio-digesting wet garbage. Talon Dos Waste Management Facility Wet wastes collected from homes by the barangay biomen are processed into compost as soil conditioners into biogas for cooking at the Waste Management Facility in BF Resort Village. The facility is a project of Sen. Manny Villar and Con. Cynthia Villar, in cooperation with Barangay Talon Dos and BF Resort Village Homeowners Association.

She resolves this by taking her Diovan medications, deep breathing and drinking plenty of water. The other family members only cool off for a moment and just try to relax to decrease the tension.
