Content within this domain may only be applicable to the Philippines!

Many of the topics tackled within CHN is tailor-made to reflect the programs and protocols promulgated by the Department of Health in the Philippines, which many not be in-line with those found in other countries, despite its basis in the World Health Organization.

Community Health Nursing is a nursing occupation that primarily takes place outside of the hospital setting. It’s found in NP1, the very first part of the PNLE. It tackles the provision of healthcare services, preventive care, and most importantly health promotion with health education in a community-based setting. It’s not exactly the dream occupation of many nurses, but its value is well-recognized and vital in promoting community-level wellness.
