Hello everyone!
Today I will tell you about my favorite book .... the book is called Brida and its author is Paulo Coelho.
The book is a novel based on a true story, according to the author.
Brida is a young woman who is 21 years old, seeking his inner self. She meets a wizard, which prompts you for becoming a witch.
For this, the youth must overcome a series of obstacles that will make you change your perception of life and discover that love is the only way to meet the spiritual world, because when we love we want to be better than we are.
I like this book because the essence of self is reflected through this novel indescribable sensations that make you think about the attachment that people have for the material, simple objects relative importance, the book leads us to ask for facts as because certain things happen sometimes, and also about its meaning of life.
In moments of reflection I like to read a passage from this book that I remember the sense of things that happen in life. Phrases like, "Nothing is completely wrong in the world, even a stopped clock gets to be right twice a day."
This book was recommended by a friend, she had read some time ago and liked it, then lend it to me.
This novel deals with many interesting features, some of them are, love and the pursuit of our other half, self-knowledge, how to achieve our dreams, magic, and his way of life, how to face the problems of everyday life and contact with nature and the universe.
Well, overall I really like books by this author but Brida is my favorite, however I highly recommend this book very entertaining and interesting.

When reviewing my previous publications I realized that my mistakes are the most typical word order, and translate Spanish sentences in common use in English, is very complicated because the order changes so much the meaning of prayer, and often attempt to modify the spelling of my ideas.
In spite of my mistakes I've managed to expand my vocabulary and get used to using new words, most related to race and concepts discussed in my college classes for example, patients, health programs, women's development, health, etc
I think the issues have been well chosen, and addresses important issues to develop us in our career. They have been subjects of interest to make friends and communicate with foreign people tell about our concerns and opinions on various topics.
Make a blog is not an easy task, but we can ask for help from our teacher. The hardest thing is to make a coherent text in English.
I find it very interesting to review what my peers think of different topics and meet its projections, all in English. Trying to read his publications, was forced to learn at least have an overview of the topic and learn new words.

MY IDEAL JOB!!

Today I will comment about my ideal job.
At the end of my career I would like to work in a hospital in Santiago to gain experience, but after a few years I would like to work in a hospital in a more relaxed, healthy, ideal for family, for this I have thought about working in one region may be in La Serena because it's my hometown, or another option is a southern city. In regions experiencing a much more favorable environment, less stressful, more secure, where you can have more contact with nature and is ideal for relaxing after a hard day's work, which is why I prefer the environment that experiemnta in those cities.
You usually find people more peaceful regions, more emotional and respectful, and that's the kind of people that I like to work. You hope to find qualities such as initiative, collaboration, respect and coordial both staff and with patients. Patients would have to have these virtues also, besides that would be participatory and accountable to the care of his health, following the instructions that I give as a midwife. Also having the force of will to improve their poor health habits and are able to have a good relationship with me. It is true that sometimes people are not all like this, but ideal for a health care professional is so be it.
In my work em would like to be director of a clinic or hospital in a region of the country, to apply my knowledge contributing to the community support, establishing health education programs, promoting good habits in the population.
I would like to specialize in public health or neonatology, that's something I have not decided yet but I hope to clarify with the pasod time.
As mentioned before I wish to speak at community level in a city by initiating reforms and education in the population, this commitment requires a lot of responsibility on my part so I'll have to put a lot of my efforts and learn to work as a team, also hope to be a good mother and wife, in spite of the great responsibilities in my job I do not want to neglect my family, so I have q looking to learn to assume greater responsibilities in the family and work.
My personal plans are to have a beautiful family, therefore I hope to have a work schedule that allows me to have a normal life with the people I love, for this I have a job for 8 or 12 hours a day, 5 days week at most, and to share with my family is very important to me.

Education and prevention



Education can be defined as the process of socialization of individuals. By educating a person learns and assimilates knowledge.
The educational process can be successfully achieved by following good education strategies in people. The educational process can be successfully achieved by following good education strategies in people, we can educate people, giving them the tools to learn on any topic, and motivating about this. to develop an interesting way to acptar the attention of people, making them feel involved and very active, involved in the learning process.Can be individually or in groups if you want to work in community.
In the area of the education health of the population is very important to prevent disease and essential part of the prevention of these. Some important issues to be addressed in health are the prevention of chronic diseases that affect significantly the global population, the largest cause of death in most countries, especially those developed countries. Some important issues to be addressed in health are the prevention of chronic diseases that affect significantly the global population, the largest cause of death in most countries, especially those developed countries, there are also important issues as are sexually transmitted diseases, drug use, teen pregnancy, etc. All these issues are of great importance and prevalence in today's society.
People who will be focused health education programs, will be those that make up the risk groups, which have the greatest possibility of acquiring a disease either.For example in the case of chronic diseases, education and prevention will be focused on those eprsonas with poor health habits in diet and physical activity. In this case the most important prevention is avoiding bad habits in the population. The education this in part by family groups to prevent the development of the disease.
A particular issue I would like to try one that is directly related to my career as a midwife, the imprinting this refers to the attachment of the mother with her child.
In our country there is the "Chile Grows with You" which addresses the issue of imprinting, by promoting various behaviors that the mother and son have a relationship of love from the beginning of pregnancy.

The Gender Role in health care.


In our country the differences between men and women are becoming smaller, but if we analyze the situation in some areas, differences still exist.
If we speak of the role of gender in the health care we can say that more doctors are male, because the medicine is an area of health that requires many years of study and perseverance, also entered the woman socially to study this kind of career for a very short time. Women are usually more likely to interrupt their studies because of pregnancy or take the desicion to start a family for 7 or more years of study it takes to race. Usually women go in shorter races such as nursing, nutrition or midwife. the most important reason is given by the society and our culture from many years ago set these parameters.The responsibilities of health professionals in hospitals depend on the charges incurred, today both men and women are being directors of hospitals. In recent years we have seen women being ministers of health. This shows which, despite the slow changes in our society in this area, little by little the difference between men and women in employment is lower.
Currently any health career admits both men and women alike, and the number of men in careers such as midwifery, nutrition and nursing has increased.
Despite all the changes in recent years, the difference between salaries for men and women is still a lot, because a woman doing the same job as a man in any profession in the area of health, takes a lower salary. This is because women are more likely to interrupt their working hours because of responsibilities of home and family.
In hospitals health professionals have been granted certain female patients, because men tend to visit very soon to the doctor, because the men when apdecen disease reach the hospital when the disease is well advanced. The men do not attend health checks, because it is in their culture.
The type of patients also depend on the area of health, is how a midwife attend to women preferably.
Both men and women can develop professionally, because they acted no discrimination by sex.The opportunities for higher education or more depends only on the intellect of each person.
This is why women occupy high posts, and are becoming more professional in what they do.

This day I will comment about my future as a midwife. My future plans are to work first in the metropolitan region to acquire the knowledge and experimentation needed to be a good professional, then go to work in La Serena because beyond this all my family and I would like to return to live with them and they can see me practicing my profession in an integrated manner.
Midwives work in shifts 12 hours a day.I like to have a schedule of eight hours because I want time to enjoy my friends, besides the work is fun but very tiring.I want to work Monday to Friday and in a normal job.
First I would like to work in the public area, to acquire more knowledge about the national situation, helping people with less education and economic resources to have a healthy lifestyle. After that, I would like to work in my region, in conjunction with a medical team, conducting health projects for the community, focusing mainly on women.In later years, I would like to join a medical team in the private sector, applying all the techniques you learned earlier. I like to work in the area public and private simultaneously although it is very tiring, I would have a lot of work!I think that will solve this issue at this time.
I want to specialize in public health, because so I can have more contact with the community, noting their concerns and addressing your health problem , this has a bigger impact in the population. I want to participate in epidemiological and demographic research related to health.
After acquiring all this experience working with the community in the public system and participating in health research for women,after acquiring all this experience working with the community in the public system and participating in health research for women, I'd like to occupy high posts, being director of a clinic in La Serena and forming part the College of Midwives of Chile.
Maybe are very ambitious but I think you can accomplish what you intend.
