Education and Prevention

The prevention and education are important for the health because can give the people the necessary information that they need to know how to prevent the possible diseases or health problems. And in the education we can help the people to know the more important risk to catch the differents diseases. In this prevention and education the health professional can work with the people individually or with a group or in many cases with a community.

In the health area the midwife works in the prevention of sexual diseases and in the education of the possible ways to prevent the STDs or even in the prevention of a unwanted pregnancy (in this case she can informed the woman and the men about the differents contraceptive methods). But the work of the midwife is more than that because she can work in the community with a web of people that can help her to promote a health style life (not only in the sexual area) and give the necessary information to the people that are in this community, all of this with the intention of the people are informed before they make a decision. For the prevention the midwife can make talks of sexual education in the schools, promote that the people go to the hospital where she can give the information individually to the people.

With all of this we can say that the work of the midwife in the prevention and education is very important to keep the well-being of the people.
