Isabel Mora Vera draws attention for the mastery and detailed explanation of Diabettes Mellitus, a disease that, although it is common today, requires higher quality care for the well-being of patients suffering from this pathology.
Hence, for this renowned mireña, praised for her research in the Holguín public health sector in nursing care, there are guarantees in which she urgently needs to deepen. This is validated by her investigative paper that she deserved the first prize in the Municipal Nursing Scientific Conference. “The preventive part of diabetes education that these patients have to carry out for life is very important and in it, nursing professionals play an essential role.”
"Primary care is the first door of entry that the patient has in the office and there we receive and guide each one of them, the home visit is made, which is very important because it is where everything about this disease is explained to them" , warns the also master, who delves into the necessary accompaniment of the family to avoid complications in the lower limbs of the body. “
"The family also decides on the health guarantees of their loved ones, which is why diabetic foot care is very important, the correct cutting of the nails, detecting any injury in time and maintaining visits to medical specialists."
In an area that is no less complicated, Isabel Amores Tarragó confirms what is known and demonstrates that through an educational intervention, adolescent pregnancy can be prevented. "The sample was made with 78 students from ESBU Calixto García, which yielded little knowledge on this matter, which allowed us to implement various actions to achieve part of our purpose, which is to prevent girls from becoming pregnant in adolescence."
"After the interviews and surveys carried out, we verified that there was an awakening in the knowledge of these adolescents." We are still not completely satisfied, but we do recognize that the effort made was not in vain and that this health problem, which the municipality does not escape, needs a different intersectoral perspective, and the presence of families with a preventive approach, stressed the equally Award-winning Postgraduate Methodologist and Science at the Municipal Directorate of Public Health.
For this researcher, who has never been able to leave the nursing profession behind, although now her teaching and other tasks encourage her to take on new challenges, this is a specialty that faces a very large social challenge. “Luckily for the people of Calixteño, we have excellent professionals who love their work and are aware that it is necessary to go further in changing times in diverse families and that not all of them talk about sexuality is the same, so we must try to reach everyone with different methods but to get there if we really want to influence a delicate and concerned issue that can mark a lifetime.”
