| HEALTH EDUCATION PROGRAM FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES (THE MOST IMPORTANT KNOWLEDGE) |
This program was created to provide the most important evidence-
based health care information to the people who need it most. The
program:
-is based on the most critical global health care needs as specified
in the latest World Health Organization (WHO) World Health
Reports.
-emphasizes the top 10 leading risk factors globally that cause the
most deaths and suffering.
-describes WHO guidelines for prevention of these as well as
other common diseases through “reducing risk and promoting
healthy life.”
-includes mental health and other recommendations for
recovering from disasters, physical or sexual assault, or other serious
accidental or war-inflicted injury.
-provides a holistic approach to care of the whole person: body,
mind and spirit.
-incorporates WHO guidelines such as “Integrated Management
of Childhood Illness” and provides additional evidence-based
guidelines for prevention and treatment from Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) and other WHO collaborating
partners.
-addresses the most important health problems in "developed" as
well as "developing" countries.
-empowers patients, families and the local community to save
lives and relieve suffering by preventing and managing their most
common and serious medical conditions.
-includes the written Handbook as well as and realistic full color
Illustrations (56 posters-available in two sizes 8.5 x 11 inch
Notebook or 11 x 17 inch laminated, as well as power point slides.)
Most of the patients we see in developing countries are suffering
from diseases that are preventable. Of all their medical needs, the
greatest by far is for reliable health care information. Although life-
saving information is available from the best evidence-based
sources, it seldom reaches our patients or even their health care
providers. This program enables the integration of primary care
and community health at the hospital, clinic/health center and
family/community levels of care.--See How to Use the Program
