.:CHILE: CONTRATS COUNTRY:.

Chile contrasts country
Our country has fought for hundreds of years in front the adversity, first for the independency, started with the opposition at Spain government, because the people of the country can a change, they wanted freedom.


Since then the people or better say, the habitants of Chile, know what they wanted and established a republic, with limits and frontiers defined, and ideals to represent the people idiosyncrasy
But, what’s the view on Chile’s bicentennial year?

Undoubtedly, Over the years some things, mark the history of a country, with wars, catastrophes, victory’s and significant losses, have been at the time, important situation, to start again and learn to stand up again.

Surely, the people in 1910, celebrated your centenary, the completely different form at the people in 2010, first, because haven’t the resources, and the politics vision was limited, today exist a free expression, also be most resources to invest in infrastructure and make a monumental spectacles like: light show in “La Moneda”, giant flags, etc. because this funds is the work of millions of Chileans in all this years.

Chile was grow up, now the life is most comfortable, have the better indicators in the level of education , economic, health, exist access at technology, and public services, to meet all basic needs, also exist opportunity of job compared with the South America neighbors, reason the hope will be a developed country in a couple of years

In my opinion this bicentenary celebration, also was marking for the unfortunately, the recently earthquake, the minery tragedy, this provoque in the people a change in your routinary life and unit most at the people

In conclusion I can say, this year was very difficult to Chile, for this reason the vision of bicentenary to Chilean people is a looked, deeper, reflexive, and hit by the blows that life gives us, but energetic, with desire to succeed, overcome adversity and sitting in front of the future without forgetting those who gave their lives to build the nation, and gradually built the territory we now call country

.:A very Special Place:.

Hi, everybody!

In this opportunity, I talk about a beautiful place in our country, ubicated in the pacific ocean, at the heigh of Valparaiso region.

Easter Island have an area of 163.6 km ² and a population of 3,791 habitants, concentrated in Hanga Roa, unique city and capital of island, and was annexed to the national territory in 1888 by browser Policarpo Toro.

The traditional name that received island is Rapa Nui, mean "Big Island", placed by older browsers from Thaiti, because is very similar at the Rapa island.

The region have a rainy-tropical climates, unique in Chile, with temperatures average 26.8ºC at the large of the year.

For the other hand the fauna is very rich and varied, we can find species like: langouste, gaviots, pelicans, Maori rats in the others, and flora has , fern meadows and forests of giant palm trees.

One of the monuments attractives of Easter island are the magnificent stone sculptures, better known as "Moais", this figures are an enigma to scientist, for its elaborated and complicated construction.

Easter island is a touristic destiny of many foreigners from all over the world, the principal economic income, for the habitants.

I would like to travel some day to this place and know more of their culture, and know at the natives people of the zone, also appreciate the arquitecture of “Moais” and the environment surrounded for the ocean.

This place is especial to forget of the obligations, work, and responsibilities daily, far away of the noise, and the pollution of the city.

..."Myths and Truth about the Human Brain”...
Hi, everybody!!
In this opportunity I talk about, of excellent presentation of Dr. Pedro Maldonado, about the myths of the brain
First, the brain is a very particular structure, charge of the correct operation of own organism, and so far unknown, but with the advances of medicine has been studied, to discovered the capacities, morphology and real functions of them

The size and form of brain, was thought different compared with others species of animals, because the grade of human intellectual develop, allowed reach the levels of modernization, creation and capacity of thought, but now, we know that there is no difference between animals and humans, both have the same structures and morphology, the difference lies in the size, the number of circumvolutions, not more.

Also, the brain always is compared with a computer, for the capacity of stored or the distribution of information, other myth resolved! Because our brain has a certain plasticity and is able to integrate the events rather than separate them
The human brain not present differences for the gender, the male brain and the female brain have the same capacities, it’s to say, women have a brain less abstract, but with all their skills to use in learning, the differences are most related with hormonal factors, but the brain is equal in both

I think, it’s very important know the functions and characteristics of human brain, understand this complex organ, very difficult to study, and clarify the myths to have a view most extend about what it’s the real role in the organism.

... INMUNIZATION...



Hi everybody!!
I talk about a very interesting article about vaccines and immunization.
Article is available in:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/oct/11/vaccination-fears-developing-world-deaths

The news talks about the many people are afraid of vaccines, pain, needles, and lately by the diseases they may cause, because immunizations are associated with the development of dangerous diseases such as: the vaccine against hepatitis B, multiple sclerosis occurs, the component Mercury in other vaccines cause autism, the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps and rubella) (included in the immunization program in Chile) is related to whooping cough, etc.
But none of this is proven, they are just rumors spread around the world, developed countries like France, UK, USA. through internet.However, it is relevant, because less industrialized countries, mainly from Asia and Africa (the highest rates are in South Africa and India), reject the vaccines even if they have high numbers of people who die or become ill each year.
Our fears of anti-vaccine groups created to excel in the developed world can not directly cause these problems, but "nurture and amplify them," said Dr. Heidi Larson of the vaccine program and policy group Imperial College London
What to do? so far only been designed to educate, inform and raise awareness, but not sufficient, it is necessary to make the change at the country and end the rumors, better known in each
For the other hand, there are places that progress in immunization, such as South America, has a high number of people vaccinated, even a relatively poor continent, including countries such as Bolivia, Peru, every year increase their numbers
Is very sad to be put at risk hundreds of lives by poor dissemination of information, and every day innocent people are dying, victims of the ignorance of those who decry the benefit offered to modern medicine for better health, especially in those need and are at a disadvantage.

¡¡sTRESs!!


Hi everybody in this opportunity I talk about Stress!

The stress is a set of physiological, psychological and behavioral characteristics of our organism to stimuli or situations that we perceive and interpret as a threat or danger to our physical and psychological.

Hundreds of people around the world suffer from this problem, even in Chile the figures are increasing daily, especially in the female population, and also in the young population

In the case of health students, this situation is habitual, but at the same time prejudicial to the health
The principal causes of stress are:
The competition in the work, the work pression, frustration for not meeting expectations, the accelerated pace of life, economic problems, problems in the family
In conclusion, several factors can trigger this condition
But is relative and accord at the people personality and mood

The symptoms of stress are varied, but the most significatives and frequent are: headache, insomnia, irritability, confussion states, incapacity of concentration, among others
The normal is that stress have a short duration (days, weeks) adaptation and solution to problems must end at this
When the stress becomes chronic (does not go away) can have long-term and in various systems, and present diseases such as high blood pressure, ulcer, depression, is to say, a series of diseases become vulnerability at the organism
The best form to fight with the stress, is evite the stressing situations, planification the change in the life , organize priorities, improve communication, discover our limitations, getting enough rest, and most important develop a positive attitude
This last recommendation can make a difference in the daily rutine and alleviate the burden of the day

LEVONORGESTREL



Hi, everybody!!

This blog is dedicated at presentation of Dr. Carlos Valenzuela, member of institute of biomedical sciences

In this opportunity he talked about: levonorgestrel in emergency contraception, better known as “the morning after pill”.

The Levonorgestrel is contraceptive pill, with postovulatory effects, using a high concentration of female hormones to stop the process of nidation or implantation, after a sexual relation, without protection, or bad utilization of anticonceptive, to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

The point of view of Dr. Valenzuela, was that levonorgestrel is a contraceptive and not an abortion pill, because not affect the implantation, only have effects in the cycle of migration of embryo in the fallopian tubes.

But there is controversy on this point because some people believe that life begins at implantation, others with the union of genetic material.

However, the doctor says in his presentation, abort is an abstract concept, very difficult to define.

This point was to my, the most interesting to my in the presentation, the controversies, and the differents points of view, of the church and the scientists, and relevance as this pills, and how to get involved in daily living.

In my personal opinion, I believe the levonorgestrel should be utilized in extreme circumstances, for example in violation victims, because I think, in case of family planification not is necessary, because exist others anticonceptive methods.

The used of levonorgestrel, should be reduce until clarify the real action method, and the various parties to reach a common understanding, especially when put in game a future life.

THE BICENTENARY

Hi, everybody!!!!

In this blog, I talk about of Bicentenary, one important date that changed the course of Chile .
To start a little of history:
This year our country meets “two hundred years” of independence, the 18 of September of 1810, when set the first meeting of government-led, for Mateo de Toro y Zambrano. But, here was not signed the act of independence, only established the points to start the process of liberation .
Since the arrival of Pedro de Valdivia, Chile has down the laws of Spanish kings, this country of Europe under his power to the vast majority of countries of America, subjecting the people to their beliefs, lifestyle, habits, besides to exploit the natures recourses especially the golden, utilised to elaborated the jewels of the royalty and make more rich at Spanish crown, considering people like an scoria .
This and other situations, prompting the people to make a change, and expulse at the spanish of the continent.
For the other hand, different countries of South America, forming the Army of the Andes, being its top leaders Bernardo O’Higgins and José de San Martín.
For that, chilli don’t its the unique country of anniversary, also Mexico, Argentine, Venezuela, Colombia, etc.
Nevertheless, Chile became independent 12 of February 1818, and the battles finished to Chile, with the embrace of Maipú, the last combat.
Really, this date should be the Chile birthday, but the history considering the independence from birth of the liberty ideas.

MY FAVOURITE BOOK...

Hi, everybody!!

In this opportunity I talk about my favourite book.
This book I read in 2008, when I was in the last year of high school, this book is “Cien años de soledad” and is probably you also read it, in the school.

His author is a very important writer of South America:Gabriel García Márquez, because he won the nobel prize of literature in 1982 with this book.

cien años de soledad, tells the story of a particular family, destined to live( As the name says) one hundred years of loneliness, until was born the descendent forged of the true love.

The principal characters are: José Arcadio Buendía and his wife, Úrsula, they are relatives (cousins), and married for the agreement of their parents, instead of love, of this union born 3 children’s: José Arcadio Buendía, the major son, Aureliano Buendía, the colonel and Amaranta, the lower.

of them born four generations, destiny to interact, reproduce among themselves, and live a strange life full of relations passion, wealth, poverty, scared, problems of religion, and a series of other things that surround the strange world of the people of "Macondo".

Each member of family have a particular personality for example: the aurelianos are pensive, thoughtful and fight for their ideals, while the jose arcadios are obsessive and revelers, these names are repeat through the time, with this characteristics.

At the moment to read the book, you imagine the situations of characters and you're a spectator, for the other hand , the trama is attractive and funny, don’t is a typical story of love , romance , or war, is an alternative to read something new.
I recommend this book.

The final I will not say it.(ITS A SORPRISE TO READERS).

In this opportunity I talk about my ideal job to future

First would be magnificent find a job with schedule flexibility, work a part of days not for turns or night, because is very stressful and tiring

Obviously, the system is associated with the place at work, but many times the public system is better paid than the private system because it considers years of service, rural area, etc.

In May case, I will like to work in consultorio, public service because is most near to the people, and you can involved with the community, and educated in relevant topics like reproductive health.

I hope to work in Santiago, because is most near to civilization and the resources, besides I’m not accustomed be out of the city and I don’t know other places to live

In end ,to me any work is the same, in all you need strive to recive money, the unique important thing, is can work in obstetrics, because many people sometimes can not work in they area or study

In this opportunity I will talk about world cup South Africa 2010, because is the topic of the moment, and all people talk of this, besides in this case CHILE is participating in this global gathering

TO START A LITTLE OF HISTORY…

The first world cup was in Uruguay in 1930, and the winner was justly URUGUAY.
The country that has won most times the cup is Brazil; they won in five opportunities and is one of the favourite to win in South Africa
Chile has participated in ten opportunities and the most prominent actuation was in 1962 when he won the third place.

SOUTH AFRICA 2010

South Africa is the country chose for the FIFA to realised the event and every four years is transferred to a particular continent
This time, Chile will be a protagonist and fight with big potencies like Italy(the last champion),England, or partners of group like Spain and Swiss, difficult rivals to try take the victory to our country

In my opinion CHILE have a good team, with good players, and very good coach, and I sure to CHILE, will go to the next stage, even can win the cup, but first, is necessary face at the masters of soccer .For that:

¡¡¡¡¡¡¡***COME ON CHILE, YOU CAN***!!!!!!!

EDUCATION AND PREVENTION
Hi everybody!!, today I talk about of education and prevention like a midwife.

The education ever is a barrier between social classes, in generally the education
is most accessible to high social class, for resources, money , and others factors , however, the lower social classes need most education to undertaken , but don’t ever have the opportunities.

Its here where the midwife have important role, in educate at the population, about nutrition , life style healthy, legal Rights, to prevent diseases of sexual transmition, between others, Ever with approach in risk

Prevent ever is best to cure , for that, the midwife work with the multidisciplinary health personal, Realizing the exercises of prevention, for example : take the PAP, to control de IMC, to control to arterial pressure, take exams during the gestation to eliminate the probability to development some kind to disease in the fetus or she.
Of this form prevent cervical cancer, diabetes, hypertension, anaemia, malformations etc.

But, the midwifery have others labours, besides physiological problems, also have compromise with the society, in community work, require projects to community, inspect the hygienic solution, and determinate inputs to elaborate plans in favour of the people

The population to educate is variable, depend of the needs of the people, in case to educate about lactation the specific group will be the pregnant woman’s until, woman’s with children’s until two years of age.

The role of midwifery is very important, because should work with different aspects of the society not only with the pathology, this profession is exigent, and ever ready help the community

GENDER ROLE IN HEALTH CARE

Hi people!! I hope you are well.

Today I will tell them about the gender role in the health care

For Ever, the woman has been linked with the home at the children care, domestics labours, since cook, etc. is to say, the woman should be in the house.

For the other hand, the men is associated with the public, work out the home, give the money to live, and all is the work, To work, to work.

Relation this with the labour in health, I can say, the woman lead , in number at men, but don’t in all the careers, because the prestigious careers is where the men are the Majority for example the medicine career.

But, slowly, the men’s are incorporate in others careers, before uniques and exclusive the woman, today is most frequents see men’s in careers like: nurs, obstetrics, and nutrition, in the others.

The girls of health also give a most near attention, and have a nice relation with the patient, that’s is a characteristics in the woman, always helps the one that he needs

The salaries in the personal health, is inequitable, but it is the same thing in any work, the men win most money and have the best salaries, even if the woman does the same work.

In terms of professional development, the men have most possibilities to continue the studies, because generally the woman should care the childrens, and is most dependent of her family

We must fight to change this!

MY FUTURE AS MIDWIFE



Hi everybody!
In this occasion I have a placer to talk about my future like a midwife.

The medicine is important area in the society, because it seeks to protect the people's life.

Obstetrics is a wonderful career in health, because work with the woman, in the processes of life, teenager, pregnancy and menopause. Also the midwife also works with the newborns and gives the care in their first months of life.

The midwife may develop in public service or private service.
In my case I like the public service because I believe is the place where people have greater needs, since by scarcity of economic resources, the few education to go the doctor, and the lots of problems in this environment generally delinquency, drugs, poverty.

I would like to specialize in obstetric or midwifery, because is most excitant, for the nerves of the childbirth, the ansiety of the pregnant woman, the hysteric father walking for the hospital corridors and the family in the waiting room.

In the future I would want do a magister or doctorate in this area, because is important to know most about the topic, to inform the people and give a best attention.

Nevertheless this speciality don’t have horary, is necessary to work for the night Several times a week. I think that’s the worst, but, at the same time is essential in this profession, and a test of vocation and the interest for the public service.

Hi class!
Hi miss!
My name is Camila Gomez and in this opportunity I talk about my favourite subject in the career
In general I like all subjects of the program of curricular innovation, because all are important in the future like professional of health.

I think that the most important subject is physiology obstetrics, in this moment because is directly related with the career, however, my favourite course is nursing fundaments

Fundaments of nursing is a subject in you can learn basic nursing like take the pressure, take the temperature, put injections etc

This course is managed by Monica Espinoza like director of the area, and the equipment integrated for Marcela Goldstack Rodrigo Neira, Jovita Ortiz, Pamela Soto among others, all then midwifes of the obstetrics school

The most interesting and difficult topics in the course are skin integrity, hygiene of the patient, and bedridden patient mobilization, because involved the theory, knowledge and application of specific techniques

The subject matter is evaluated with research works, presentation of clinics case, and test, but in most cases practical work. For the other hand my qualifications in this subject don’t be excellent but the most important is to learn the most possible to be a good professional

From my point of view, the nursing is relevant and important for the career, because is applies with each patient in all moments, also gives you the basics tools to do a good job.

Hi miss and class, mi name is Camila Gomez and I would like to taking about my expectations of my career

I like midwifery, because it is a profession close to the people an especially woman


I think in the near future work in hospitals or in clinics educating at the people in reproductive health because the most important is help

The earthquake caused in my the spirit of help, for that In my professional future like a midwife I will be able most closely help, doing campaigns of compilation, go to hospital urgencies. To my mind a health professional must serve at all moments and when need it


My experience, with the earthquake was horrible and I wait not to return to repeat it, also after the earthquake, the light was cut, and did not know of anyone, or anything for a week, and that was the worst
