INTRODUCTION
Family is a group of persons united by ties of marriage, blood, birth or adoption, and it is composed of two or more people who are emotionally involved with each other and live in a close geographical proximity. (Friedman, 1981)
Family is the basic unit of society, a primary entity of health care or institution responsible for the physical, emotional and social support of its members. The family is the unit of care in Community Health Nursing because it is considered as the natural and fundamental unit of society. As a group it generates, prevents, tolerates and corrects health problems within its membership. The family is the most frequent focus of health decisions and actions in personal care. It is an effective and available channel for much of the community health nursing efforts. It also provides a crucial environmental force; the family through its interaction within the larger social system validates and influences health efforts. The family is said to be the foundation of the individual s personality development. The individual s personality depends on how their family molds them to be a better person. A parent tends to be the first teachers of their children. They play an important role in their child s physical, emotional, social and spiritual development. They should set as a good example for their children. Since communities is made up of families, as future community health nurses we would be the front liners in the community. We must familiarize ourselves to the need of our clients. One of the four clienteles would be the family. Student nurses must be able to identify problems that exist within the family and must be able to prioritize problems according to the family needs. We conducted a family interview to gather information that would serve as a baseline data.
The Family X who is a cohabitated family resides in a small makeshift house in PAG-ASA, Olongapo City for about 10 yrs. Mr. X and Mrs. X have 3 children, 2 boys and a girl. Their religion is catholic. Mr. X who is 33 years old originated from Bataan, he was born on March 11, 1978. He was an -

Mrs. X is 24 years old and was born on June 14, 1987. She was an Elementary Undergraduate and grade three is her highest educational attainment. Mrs. X is self-employed, and works as a barker for jeepneys. She relies on the tip given to her by the jeepney drivers so she does not have regular earnings. The family X is in the Family with School Aged children according to Duvall s development/ task of the family where their eldest child is 6 years of age until the child turns 13 years of age .Their eldest son is 8 years old and was born on March 3, 2003.

Family X is a co-habitating family consisted of a father and a mother who are not married and their three children living together in one house. The family is matrilineal because members of the family affiliates with a group of people related to them through their mother. The two boys who are already going to school live with their maternal grandmother on weekdays and stay with their parents on weekends. In terms of residence, the family is patrilocal since the house that they live in is located in the lot which belonged to the family of their father. In decision making, although the father says he is the one who decides for the family it was evident that he is a submissive partner when his partner called him and told him to cook their food.
Interpretation:
Family X is a cohabitation family because the father and the mother are not married, lives together and has three children. The family is matrilineal because their two sons affiliate with a group of people, specifically their grandparents related to them through their mother. In terms of residence, the family is patrilocal since the place that their house is located used to be the property of the father s family. In terms of decision making, the family is egalitarian because even though Mr. X says that he is
the one who is in charge, it was obvious that he listens to what his wife tells him. Family X is in the stage of Family with School Age Child/Children because their eldest and middle children are already going to school.
Analysis:
Cohabitation families are composed of heterosexual couples and perhaps children, who live together but remain unmarried (Pillitteri,A., 2009). A family is matrilineal according to descent when members of the family affiliate with a group of people related to them through their mother. It is said that a family is patrilocal according to residence if they live near the domicile of the parents of the husband. According to authority, a family is egalitarian when husband and wife exercise a more or less amount of authority, father and mother decides. Important nursing concerns during this family with a school age child stage are monitoring children s health in terms of immunization, dental care, and health care assessments; monitoring child safety related to home or automobile accidents; and encouraging a meaningful school experience that will make learning a lifetime concern (Pillitteri,A., 2009).

Family X has a united but conflicted relationship, they live in one house but when the mother talks to the father she always shouts and curses him. It is the father who takes care of their youngest and when she d make noises while the mother is sleeping she d shout at the child. While we were on the process of information gathering, the mother is out playing coins with other kids and we had no choice but to get most of the information from the father and their two boys.
Interpretation:
This kind of relationship that the husband and wife has and how the wife treats everybody in the family may have a negative impact on the children especially the youngest one who stays with them the most. Analysis:
Shared household work and decision with spouse can strengthen the family s capacity to improve the well-being of the members (Reyala, 2000).
B. DIETARY HABIT BREAKFAST THURSDAY Pancit bought from local vendor FRIDAY fried rice, egg, dried fish Mr. X SATURDAY Sopas local vendor LUNCH DINNER
fried rice and giniling rice and vegetables (pakbet) Mr. X rice and fried fish Mr. X rice and smoked fish Mr. X local vendor rice and fried fish Mr. X rice and smoked fish Mr. X
Family X usually consumes 2 kilos of rice each day and buys ulam or viands from their local vendor or carinderia or buys fish from the market and he fries it. According to Mr. X he eats approximately 4 cups of rice, his wife 2 cups and the 3 kids 1 cup each, the rest he feeds to their dog. What they ate at lunch would almost always be what they would eat for dinner. And they would drink
water after meals, 2 glasses each for him and his wife, 1 glass each for the children who sometimes would not empty the glass.
Interpretation:
They consume too much carbohydrate, they do have protein in the diet in the form of fish but smoked fish contains high sodium or salt. Fruits are never in their diet and vegetables are very rare only when they would buy from the carinderia. Their dietary habit is mainly a product of Filipino culture. Filipinos do not consider it a meal if rice is not served. Plain steamed rice is the basis of the diet. Eating too much carbohydrate can lead to increased blood sugar level along with other diseases like diabetes and hypertension. While having too much salt in the diet can lead to kidney disease and hypertension as well.
Analysis:
Nutrition is what a person eats and how the body uses it. Nutrients are organic and inorganic substances found in foods that are required for body functioning. Adequate food intake consists of a balance of nutrients: water carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals. Foods differ greatly in their nutritive value (the nutrient content of a specified amount of food), and no one food provides all essential nutrients (Kozier, 2008). The key word there is specified amount, anything that is over or under in terms of quantity can affect health. The desirable contribution to total energy intake should range from 55-70% carbohydrates, 20-30% fats, 10-15% protein. A balanced diet is one that contains all the nutrients and other substances found naturally in food, in proper amounts and proportions needed by the body to function well. Eating a diet that includes a wide variety of foods in the right amount chosen from different food groups helps individuals to meet the Recommended Dietary Allowance (Reyala, 2000).
A. MONTHLY INCOME
Mr. X earns from 100-250 pesos per day from scavenging in places near their house to as far as Sta. Rita and Kalaklan and it is mostly 100 pesos than higher. His wife sometimes works as a barker for jeepneys and rely on the drivers tip so she does not have a steady income. However, Mr. X told us that his wife is a member of the 4Ps or the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program wherein the government provides conditional cash grants to extremely poor households to improve their health, nutrition and education particularly of children aged 0-14. They get about 1,400 pesos a month from the 4Ps. The education of their two sons is free and what they need for school is being shouldered by their grandparents. Mr. X s income is just enough for their food and water and they have no chance of saving anything for the rainy days or if one of the family members get sick.
Interpretation:
Family X s total monthly income is approximately 4,400 pesos divided among 5 members of the family it is only 880 pesos for each person. It would be really hard for Mr. X to save up for the rainy days and probably save up for their plan of transferring to a bigger house because his only source of income is through scavenging. He couldn t find a job that he could earn higher because of his educational attainment. It is fortunate however that the grandparents of their kids are willing to help them by keeping the boys with them and giving them things that their father could not give like clothing and things for school.
Analysis:
For 2007, Filipino families consisting of five members should be earning a combined monthly income of 6,195 pesos in order to meet their most basic food and non-food needs for this year, according to National Statistics Coordination Board. This data is four years ago and prices are still getting higher. So it is safe to say from this data alone that Family X is below the poverty line.
A.HEALTH HISTORY
Mr. X stated that in the past 6 months, the head of the family or the father had encountered illness like mumps. Mr. X went to the health center to consult for his illness. Barangay health officials advise him to use gumamela flower and he did not take any kind of medication. Mr. X also stated that during their childhood, they experienced illnesses like mumps, chicken pox, and measles.

The family X does have health practices. They take a bath twice a day. Perform hand washing before and after eating but they do not know the proper way. They brush their teeth twice a day and comb their hair after they take a bath. They change their underwear after they take a bath. According to Mr. X, their only exercise is bicycling when he goes to work, his wife doing the laundry and their kids play and they do have enough rest and sleep. Mr. X had a mumps this last 6 months and went to the health center to have a checkup. They gave him gumamela, a medicine for his mumps. They do not have a family doctor and dentist. They often consult their health problems in the health center because they have free medications and medicines but rarely go there because of inadequate source of income. He stated that his eldest son, RJ, had been hospitalized because he accidentally fractured his arm when he fell from a tree before the school started this year. They went to the health center and they placed a cast on his fractured arm. Family X drinks water after they eat and only if they are thirsty. Mr. X does not smoke but only drinks liquor when he wants to relax. His wife smokes after eating her meal. She is a member of an organization in their community but she is not that active. The client stated that all their children are fully immunized in their barangay health center. Mr. X stated that he wakes up at 5:00 in the morning to get reusable materials from trash and sell it to the junkshop. And after that he goes to the market to buy food. Then when he gets home, he will cook breakfast for his family. In the afternoon he will goto the streets to find some reusable trash to sell and when he gets home he ll cook again then eat and sleep. Mrs. X wakes up at 10:00am to eat breakfast then after that she will wash their clothes. She is unemployed so she stays at home all the time. Then sometimes she is a barker at night. Mr. X stated that his first child and the second child wake up early in the morning to go to school. His youngest child is 3 years old so she stays at home all day. The client stated that they are using family planning and they use condom to prevent Mrs. X from getting pregnant. They are aware on how to use it. He stated that they get condom from the health center and sometimes there are programs where health workers goes house to house to give
condom for free to promote family planning. The client also stated that they practice the withdrawal method when they don t have condom as contraceptive. Mr. X stated that during his free time or relaxation time, he is just sleeping and watching television from their neighborhood. Mrs. X s relaxation is just sleeping and playing Cara Cross in the street. He also stated that his stress coping activity is just drinking alcohol (EMPERADOR) whenever he wants to relax while Mrs. X smokes after eating her meal.
Interpretation:
Family X lived almost 10 years near the river. Even though they do not have enough money for living and they only enough money for their everyday living they are still happy. They live in a small house that is not conducive to live. They all sleep in a one small bed and at risk in having backpain and bad posture because of wrong sleeping position. There will be a possibility that they will be suffocated because of lack of oxygen in the sleeping quarters. They also live near the river and there is a possibility that when there is a high tide they can get communicable diseases like typhoid fever, diarrhea, dengue fever, pulmonary tract infection (PTI) and leptospirosis. They even throw their waste excretions in the river. They often buy their foods in the carinderia and the water that they always drink is placed in a plastic container and they are at risk in having hepatitis, dysentery and cancer. Rodents and vectors are always present in their surroundings because of improper garbage disposals. They only have few appliances in their house so they have no means of entertainment and relaxation. The family X takes a bath twice a day and before they eat they perform hand washing but do not know the proper way. According to Mr. X, they do not take exercise regularly and at risk in having cardiovascular disease when they get old. They often go to the health center because of free medication and medicines but rarely go there because of inadequate source of income. When his eldest son, JR, had been hospitalized due to his fractured arm when he fell from a tree they went to the health center to cast it. They should go to the hospital too to be safe if it really healed or not. Mr. X drinks liquor whenever he wants to relax and to relieve his stress. Mrs. X smokes after eating her meals. Because they have vice like drinking and smoking they are at risk in having tuberculosis and cirrhosis of the liver. They also used condom for their family planning.

The house of family X was demolished recently because the land that is the standpoint of their house has been repossessed by the bank, and until now they are still there but different from the usual, because now, they just occupied a small part of that land. Their house today is just a makeshift with only
one room occupied by three persons. In reality, this room is only for one person, but because of poverty and inadequate resources they do not have any choice but to live there. The light that they are using is only a candle and it is not adequate because it can cause a fire if left unattended. As we estimated the size of their house, the width is 3meters and the length is 4meters, and you can t stand there if you are 4-5ft. and above, because the roof is too low. The ventilation in their house is not adequate because it is too small and patchy, and the surroundings of their house have so much garbage, so you cannot snuffle fresh air. There are so many hazards in their house one of this is the river at the back of their house, because the head of the family or their father mentioned that his children plays on the river so therefore, the children are at risk of getting drowned. They don t have drainage, they are collecting their garbage on a plastic and place it in the trashcan 5meters away from their house to be collected by the garbage collectors every Tuesday and Friday, and they are just excreting in his mother in law s toilet near their house. The house of family X is too small for them and their surroundings are dirty because of the scattered trash. They do have vectors and rodents present in their house like cockroach, mice, and termites. They do have a pet, one dog, the breeding is a stray dog, and where kept under their house. Their dog has no vaccination. They do not have their own water supply. They only buy their drinking water from their neighbor and store it in a plastic container. Since they do not have water supply there is no distance of water source from the house. They use plastic bottle as their water storage for drinking. One gallon of water costs only two pesos. They have a container that can occupy three gallons and it cost only six pesos. They do not have a method for sanitizing water. The type of water storage for bathing/for any household chores is also a plastic container. They do not have a proper cooking facility but they have kerosene stove used for their cooking. They use pot for their food storage for cooked food. They do not have food storage for uncooked food. When Mr. X buys food he cooks it as soon as possible. They use a kerosene gas stove as their way of cooking their food. They use plastic bag or sack for their garbage, which is collected by the garbage truck every Tuesday and Friday. As we go around with our assessment we found out that their surroundings are scattered of trash. Since they do not have their own toilet facility there is no distance of septic tank from their house. There is no materials use for septic tank. And there is no condition of septic tank. They only shared toilet with their in-laws when they need it.
Interpretation:
The house of family x is not conducive to live because it is too small for 3 person and the ventilation is inadequate so communicable disease are can easily be transmitted to the other member of the family. Their house is too close to river and when there is high tide, the water from the river reaches them, so they are at risk of having Athlete s foot and the most worst is getting drowned especially for the children. Their house is surrounded with garbage and tires with water can be the reservoir of mosquitoes which can cause dengue and malaria, and the garbage that surrounds them can be the cause of Typhoid fever and diarrhea. They are buying their foods in the near carinderia even though they don t know if it is clean and safe to eat, so they are at risk to get Ascariasis which is the causative agent of Ascaris Lumbricoides. Also, they are buying their water from their neighbor not knowing when it came from, they drink and used it for washing their utensils and for bathing, so they are at risk to get diarrhea, cholera, and amoebiasis.
Analysis:
LIVING CONDITION
Poor living conditions may lead to illness, easy transmission of disease, injuries that can adversely affect the health of the people; likewise a healthy and wholesome environment promotes healthy life and absence of disease. Each family (of about 5 people) has about 10 m2 to sleep and organize their living space.(Reyala,2000)
Environment Sanitation I still a health problem in the country. Diarrheal diseases ranked second in the leading causes of morbidity among the general population. Other sanitation related diseases are tuberculosis, intestinal parasitism, schistosomiasis, malaria, infectious hepatitis, filariasis and dengue hemorrhagic fever which are controlled and/or eradicated by health programs with environmental sanitation components but still afflicting a great number of the population..
The Department of Health through the Environmental Health Services (EHS) has authority to act on all issues and concerns in environment and health including the very comprehensive Sanitation Code of the Philippines (PD 856, 1978). However, the implementation of the environmental health programs need to be standardized and intensified coupled with police power to attain a better quality of life towards the end of century.(Reyala,2000)
There has been a steady increase in the number of household having access to safe water supply sources. However, insufficient knowledge and inappropriate practice in the handling of water from the source to the storage point in the house could contaminate drinking water. People who get drinking water from the pipe water facilities are not exempted from diarrheal disease contraction particularly those that are served with old worn-out pipes that suck in sewage or filt through cracks and joints of the pipes. (Reyala,2000)
It is significant to note that there has been an increase in the proportion of households having sanitary toilet facilities both in the urban and rural areas but there is also an increase in the absolute number of persons, which do not have an access to sanitary toilet facilities in the sense that the mothers still allow their children to move their bowel elsewhere despite of the presence of toilets in their homes. (Reyala,2000)
The rapid change in the eating habits of the Filipinos in fast food establishments particularly those in the urban centers increases the risk of the segment of population to food-borne infection due to unsanitary handling of preparation of food. The banning of shellfish consumption during red tide period to reduce the number of persons that contract paralytic shellfish poisoning has its complexities with regards to the aggravated economic conditions of affected fisherman and shellfish vendors. (Reyala,2000)
V. FAMILY ENVIRONMENT
Since the X family lives near the river, there is a high risk that their house would be flooded whenever there is a high tide. They are also prone to dengue and malaria. They also have a noisy and not peaceful environment. The house in their neighborhood is built close to each other. Their surrounding is dirty because of the presence of scattered garbage found within their area. This garbage produces unpleasant odor that makes the surroundings prone to flies, rats and cockroaches. They do have hospital, health center and birthing home located in their community as their health facilities. They do not have a school located in their barangay but there are schools in the near barangays. Pag Asa Public Market is the center of trades in their vicinity. There are Christian churches located within their barangay but the nearest Catholic Church is situated in barangay Kalalake. Even though there are establishments that promote relaxation which are located within the vicinity of their barangay, they can t afford to go there because of financial problems. The family X do not use any means of communication facilities for they do not have any resources for it. Since Mr. X uses his bicycle with side car to collect garbage, this also serves as their means of transportation. They do not use other means of transportation except for their bicycle with side car. Mr. X had said that whenever one of the family members get sick, they go to the health center which is just a walking distance from their home to consult the community health doctor. It only means that they trust the health facilities located in their community.
Interpretation:
The family X is prone to home hazard because of the presence of river located at the back of their house. There is great chance to that they might acquire dengue and malaria for they do not have a drainage system. Living in a noisy and not peaceful environment can greatly affect the family s health. One of the major problems of the family and community is the improper garbage disposal, it can cause gastrointestinal diseases. Their communities have complete social facilities which are easily accessible. Though some facilities are not located in their barangay, like school and church some social facilities are located in the near barangay which is a walking distance they do also have a complete health facilities like hospital,
health center and birthing home. Because of the lack in income they can t afford to buy a cellphone or other device used for communication so they are not aware in their relatives residing in other province. The family trusted the health center present in their community for he verbalize pag may nagkakasakit nagpupunta agad kmi sa center, wala kasi kaming perang pampagamot.
Analysis:
Family surroundings influence the family s knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) on their health especially when they are ignorant of their own health. e.g. use of regulated drugs and smoking may increase health risk. Many still adhere to superstitious beliefs in terms of health practices among the elders and tend to pass it on the next generation. Decision of other family members may prevail even against the will of the concern individual. (Reyala,2000)
The family X is not active in their community. They are not members of an organization in their community. Mrs. X is a member of a National Government Program called 4 P s ( Pamilyang Pilipino Pangkabuhayan Program). Mr. X is also aware of the said program. They receive a monthly amount of P 1,000 in exchange that they would send their children in School. Mr. X emphasized that their family is only active in the community festivities. Their children participate in the parlor games which is one of the programs during the barangay fiesta.
Interpretation:
The family X is not active in participating in their community organization mainly because they are busy with their jobs. Even though they are aware of the existence of an organization they can t find time to participate in the activities of the organization. It is not enough that only their child participates in their community festivities. Parents should be the role model off their child specially regarding with the socialization of the family.

RELATED LITERATURE
Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4 P s) is a poverty reduction and social development strategy of the national government that provides conditional cash grants to extremely poor households to improve their health, nutrition and education particularly of children aged 0-14.
Pantawid Pamilya has dual objectives: Social Assistance - to provide cash assistance to the poor to alleviate their immediate need (short term poverty alleviation); and Social Development - to break the intergenerational poverty cycle through investments in human capital. Pantawid Pamilya helps to fulfill the country s commitment to meet the Millennium Development Goals, namely: Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger Achieve Universal Primary Education Promote Gender Equality Reduce Child Mortality Improve Maternal Health
Targeting System The poorest households in the municipalities are selected through the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction (NHTS-PR) implemented by the DSWD using the Proxy Means Test. This test determines the socio-economic category of the families by looking at certain proxy variables such as ownership of assets, type of housing, education of the household head, livelihood of the family and access to water and sanitation facilities.
Eligible Households Residents of the poorest municipalities based on 2003 Small Area Estimates (SAE) of NSCB; Households whose economic condition is equal to or below the provincial poverty threshold. Households that have children 0-14 years old and/or have a pregnant woman at the time of assessment; Households that agree to meet conditions specified in the program.
Set of Co-Responsibilities To avail of the cash grants beneficiaries should comply with the following conditions: Pregnant women must avail pre- and post-natal care and be attended during childbirth by a trained health professional; Parents must attend Family Development Sessions (FDS); 0-5 year old children must receive regular preventive health check-ups and vaccines; 3-5 year old children must attend day care or pre-school classes at least 85% of the time. 6-14 year old children must enroll in elementary or high school and must attend at least 85% of the time. 6-14 years old children must receive deworming pills twice a year.
Program Coverage Pantawid Pamilya operates in 80 provinces covering 734 municipalities and 62 key cities. The Pantawid Pamilya targets to cover 2.3 million households by end of 2011.
Program Cycle The implementation of Pantawid Pamilya Program follows the 8-step cycle starting from the 1) selection of target areas, 2) supply side assessment, 3) selection of household beneficiaries, 4) registration and validation of beneficiaries, 5) Family Registry preparation, 6) initial payment, 7) verification of compliance and 8) 2nd and succeeding release of cash grants.
Program Package Pantawid Pamilya provides cash grants to the beneficiaries to wit: P6,000 a year or P500 per month per household for health and nutrition expenses; and P3000 for one school year or 10 months or P300/month per child for educational expenses. A maximum of three children per household is allowed. A household with three qualified children receives a subsidy of P1,400/month during the school year or P15,000 annually as long as they comply with the conditionalities. The cash grants shall be received by the most responsible person in the household, usually the mother, through a Land Bank cash card. In cases where payment through cash card is not feasible, the beneficiaries shall be provided their cash grants through an alternative payment scheme such as over-the-counter transactions from the nearest Landbank branch or offsite payments through Landbank.
