Education and Prevention in my Profession...

Hello everyone!!! Today I'm going to talk about the education and prevention in my profession.

The education is a very important area in the formation of a midwife because it is one of the professionals that promote health to a specific group.

The midwife is responsible for promoting health and quality of life of women throughout their life cycle through prevention, promotion, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation. In this process includes family and to the community.
Also involved in promoting education and health in preschool, basic education, secundary and higher education.
Some of the ways of prevention and education that delivery the midwife are for example, talks topics about sex education to schools, workshops on breastfeeding in the "consultorio", education in the communities where there are problems in which the midwife can intervene, and also home visits to the mothers to educate about the care of the newborn. The most important for me is the transversal education that the midwife gives to the women during the prenatal controls or in the gynecological controls.
In my opinion the most important health topics in my profession, are care and warning signs during pregnancy, breastfeeding and the newborn care, the family planning, prevention of sexually transmitted diseases that directly affect women for example, the human papilloma virus and HIV and the promotion of the use of contraceptive methods as a means of prevention of unwanted pregnancies in adolescents of secundary education.
In our country it is important give a good education on the topics I mentioned, but I must emphasize that it is fundamental educate to the women about cervical cancer and breast cancer, because our country has a high mortality rate for these pathologies.
