Development of a Model of Participation of Prison Health Volunteers in Prevention and Control, Diseases and Health Hazards in Prisons in Health Region 5

Abstract

Research and development is the development of a model of participation of prison public health volunteers in the prevention of Control of diseases and health hazards in prisons of Health Region 5. The objectives are to 1) analyze the situation of diabetes and hypertension in a prison, 2) develop a model of participation of prison public health volunteers in preventive operations. 3)To apply the participation model of prison public health volunteers in the prevention of diabetes and hypertension in a prison, and 4)to evaluate the effectiveness of the participation model of prison public health volunteers in the prevention of diabetes and hypertension in a prison. A specific random sample of 152 people, including 2 prison nurses, 30 prison public health volunteers, 30 inmates at risk of diabetes, 30 people at risk of hypertension, 30 people with diabetes, and 30 people with high blood pressure. The tools used in the research include knowledge tests, awareness and care of risk groups and patients of public health volunteers and self-care of at-risk groups Sick group, interview. group discussion and satisfaction questionnaire on the media presented in the operation of the sample. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the average before and after was compared with Paired t-test statistics. The results of the research showed that (1) the condition of diabetes and hypertension problem in a prison; there are 3 issues: 1) Prison public health volunteers also have knowledge and understanding of diabetes and hypertension incorrect. 2) There are relatively few media to build understanding for prisoners, and 3) Prisoners' access to knowledge about diabetes and hypertension is not comprehensive. (2) The model of participation of prison public health volunteers in preventive operations. There are four components: (1) data analysis to analyze the situation of diabetes and hypertension problems, (2) development of the capacity of prison public health volunteers, (3) preparation of media, and (4) evaluation of the results of development. By applying the model to experiment. It was found that (1) the prison public health volunteer group had knowledge, awareness, and practice of caring for inmates in vulnerable groups; the diabetes and hypertension groups had a statistically significantly higher mean score. (2) Risk groups, knowledge, about diabetes the mean score was statistically significantly higher. (3) Diabetic and hypertension group has a mean knowledge value mean score was statistically significantly higher and the sample was satisfied with the form and content of the media that provided knowledge to a high level.
