Nurses are expected to: “be aware of broader health concerns such as environmental pollution, violation of human rights, world hunger, homelessness, violence, etc. and are encouraged to the extent possible in their personal circumstances to work individually as citizens or collectively for policies and procedures to bring about social change, keeping in mind the needs of future generations” (CNA, Code of Ethics, 2002 p.15).
As a nurse, our role is to be a model to everyone in promoting and preventing such health concerns, and be very knowledgeable enough to disseminate the information to our clients. There are different ways on how we are going to give health teachings to our client. First, by home visiting in the community, we can educate the families on different environmental factors which can affect their health status and also by conducting seminars about the preventive measures in any kinds of diseases. Through this kinds of dissemination of information it will make the people be aware on health concerns.
It is our responsible that we know the importance of the connection of environmental health, human health and vitality because we are the ones who influence both the public, policy and decision makers. Moreover, we are the ones who awaken the mind and hearts to the health of the Earth.
