Hello everyone!

In this opportunity I am going to talk about education and prevention in my career, midwifery. Like future midwives, we must to know that education will be very important in our future job, because we have to teach to the people about their health, although we are not teachers. This topic is something that has a lot of importance and belongs to a new way to understand the job of the heath’s professionals. Like teachers have told us, we have to educate to the community and give them the tools to they can manage their own health, this is reason because now we don’t call them patients but users. Patient refers to a passive person that receives instructions and then makes them, and users refers to a person that receives our services, but is able to takes decisions and participates in his health.

About prevention, this is something very important too, because we have to inform to the people the different ways to prevent some diseases and promote healthy lifestyles. They deserve to know about their bodies, their habits and their health, and is our task to teach them. We have to give this service to all our users, but we have to emphasize in low social class people, because they need more support due to their lack of opportunities and education.
