INITIAL DATABASE
A. Family Structure

Rolando
Riza C&C- Cough &
HTN
Colds
H-Hypertension
The family structure is patriarchal. The family head is Rolando Masalunga, a 36 year old
Filipino male who is a tuba gatherer in Nagsaulay. He is married to Riza, a 35 year old
housewife. They have five sons who live with them, two of which are in hisghschool, one in
elementary and the other in kindergarten. The family is presently living at Sitio Sabang in
Nagsaulay, San Juan, Batangas. When it comes to making decisions regarding their health it is
Riza who is most concerned and usually takes action. They had been happily married and
according to Mrs. Masalunga it takes a lot of sacrifices to make a marriage work. They seldom
fight or have arguments but if they do it is Mr. Masalunga who apologizes and reconciles first.
Family problem is usually about financial matters.
Expenses/Month
a. Electricity 305
b. Food 2000
c. Groceries (soap, toothpaste etc) 500
d. Transportation 150
Mr. Rolando is the bread winner of the family. The money he earns depends on the
number of orders of lambanog. According to his wife sometimes they can earn as much as 8,000
per week. But most of the time, they have an average income of 3000 pesos per month or 750 per
week. Mrs. Masalunga also said that their income is insufficient for their needs especially now that
the prices of commodities are getting higher. Most of their income is also spent on the education of
their 4 children. It is usually Mrs. Masalunga who handles and budgets the money.
The family hears the current news and situations in the Philippines through the television,
radio and their neighbors. They usually ride jeepneys as a means of transportation. As earlier
stated, the most common problem in the family is money. Whenever they have problems they
usually ask help from Riza’s brother and other relatives. The Masalunga family is Catholic. They
seldom go to church because they usually have no time to go to the bayan. Their is a church in
Nagsaulay, however the mass is only held once a month.
Their house is about 20 square meters, with 2 bedrooms and a kitchen. The couple
together with their youngest son Mariel sleeps together. Though they have another bedroom, their
other sons sleep on the living room because it is more breezy and spacious. The house is owned
and is made of mixed materials. The walls of the living room and bedrooms are made of concrete
while their kitchen walls are made of pawid. Their lights and other appliances are powered by
electricity. The house is generally clean. They put their left over food on the table in a covered
container or they just feed it to their neighbor’s dogs. Utensils and other kitchenware are stored in
a dish rack.
The family gets water from a deep well 5 meters away from their house. They store
drinking water in a covered plastic water jug with built in faucet. Mrs. Masalunga verbalized that
they only boil the water that will be used for Mariel’s milk. She claimed that she boils it for 30
minutes and uses a strainer after just to make sure that the water is really safe. They cook their
food using firewood and charcoal though they have a gas stove. Mrs. Masalunga said that LPG
gas is too expensive and it’s impractical to use here in the province were charcoal and firewood
are abundant. They have no drainage system. They throw used water on a vacant lot near their
house or just let it flow on the ground. The usual method of garbage disposal of the family is
burning and sometimes burying. Some of the usual house pests are cockroaches, flies and
mosquitoes. To drive away these vectors they clean their house regularly and burn grass to
produce smoke that will drive away mosquitoes. Their comfort room is of flush type and has no
foul odor though molds can be seen on the toilet bowl. The bathroom is not tiled and walls are
made of pawid. Water from the poso (approximately 2 meters away from the bathroom) is readily
available.

D. Health Status
Rolando Masalunga
Rolando Masalunga had been a tuba gatherer since he was a teenager. He cannot recall
having diseases such as meascles, chickenpox, and mumps during his childhood. He has no
immunizations and allergies. Last 2001 he was hospitalized when he fell from a “karetan” (or
bamboos that serve as bridge to reach other coconut trees) that resulted to a fractured hip. He was
then admitted in Batangas Regional Hospital where he had stayed for weeks. The doctor advised the
patient to undergo an operation but due to lack of financial assistance the family decided to leave the
hospital and go to a medico instead. His wife claimed that the medico cured him. After a month of
resting he resumed working, still as a tuba gatherer. He has no familial history of hypertension,
diabetes, cancer, and tuberculosis. When nurse asked him what would be his rating of his overall
health from a scale of 1-10 (10 being the highest) he verbalized, “Eight. Dapat sana sampu kaso
simula nung aksidente, bumagal na ang katawan ko.” He complains of occasional back pain but is
relieved when his wife massages his back with oil.
Client said that since the accident he had been more careful regarding his health. He had
not experienced any sickness since then aside from the usual cough and cold which lasts for five
days. To keep his body healthy, he eats right and rests well. Client drinks lambanog sometimes and
smokes a pack of cigarette a day. When asked if he had tried smoking cessation, he said that
though he knows the bad effects of smoking in his body he still has no plans of quitting- “Siguro
pag-matanda na lang ako hihinto.”
He sleeps at least 8 hours a day and according to her wife he snores when he sleeps.
Client has good appetite in eating and has no difficulty in defecating or urinating. He claimed that
there are no changes in his sexual relationship with his wife.
Riza Masalunga
Mrs. Masalunga had been a housewife since she got married. As a kid, she recalls that
she was never sickly and had not experienced having chickenpox, meascles or mumps. She had
been vaccinated with tetanus toxoid and hepatitis A and B when she was pregnant with her youngest
son Mariel.
Client has familial history of hypertension, CVA, TB and Rheumatic Fever. She is a
diagnosed hypertensive since 1994. Riza said that when she started using DNPA or injectables in
1994, she had gained weight and began to experience pain on the back of her neck “batok,” severe
headache and pagkahilo. Because of this she went to the health center for consultation regarding an
alternative family planning method which is to take birth control pills. The midwife refused to give her
birth control pills because she is hypertensive. Since she doesn’t want to take DNPA or be ligated
she still bought birth control pills in a pharmacy and had been using it against the advice of the
midwife. She used pills for five years.
After she stopped taking the pills, Riza verbalized that she had experienced severe
headache and “pananakit ng batok.” She managed it by resting & lying for a while, drinking
pineapple juice or drinking “salay” decoction (a local plant that is believed to reduce blood pressure).
Her blood pressure is constantly monitored by a BHW.
In 2005, when she was pregnant with Mariel, she was admitted to the RHU due to pre-
eclampsia. She recalled that before she was hospitalized, she experienced severe headache,
“panghihina ng buong katawan” and “pagdidilim ng paningin.” After a few days of confinement, she
was sent home and was ordered to be in complete bed rest. On June 23, 2006, she was again
admitted to a rural hospital to give birth to her youngest son.
To keep her body healthy and to lower her blood pressure she claimed that she eats a lot
of vegetables and limits her rice intake. She considers taking care of her children and doing the
households chores as a form of exercise. She usually has at least 6 hours of continuous sleep
everyday.
Para 5 Gravida 5. Patient had normal spontaneous deliveries. Four of which were
delivered by a midwife and a “hilot” at her house except on her last pregnancy where she was
admitted to the ER in the RHU. After giving birth to her youngest son she was then ligated. She
claimed that there are no changes in her sexual relationship with her husband.
Mark Masalunga
Mark is the eldest son of Riza and Rolando. He will graduate in highschool this March.
Aside from the usual common cough and colds, he said that his body is generally healthy. He has
no difficulty in defecating and urinating. He has a good appetite and prefers to eat fish and
vegetables most of the time. His mother verbalized that he has complete immunization.
Mark is a smoker. He said that he started smoking when he was in 1 year highschool. He
st
consumes at least a stick of cigarette per day. When asked if he had plans of quitting smoking, Mark
verbalized that he knows the bad effects of smoking in the body that’s why he is only consuming at
most 3 sticks per day, “Hindi naman parati, pa isa-isang stick lang kadalasan.” He drinks lambanog
only during especial occasions. As a form of exercise he plays basketball. For relaxation, he hangs
out with his friends or play billiards. He sleeps at least 8 hours a day.
Melvin Masalunga
Melvin a 13 year old male said that his usual illness is cough, colds and fever. He
manages the said illnesses by consulting in the health center or by self- medicating. He has
complete immunizations. He had been hospitalized once when he was 6 months old due to diarrhea.
He has normal elimination pattern, has good appetite and has at least 8 hours of sleep
everyday. He considers taking care of his youngest brother and helping his mother in doing the
household chores as a form of exercise. He doesn’t smoke or drink alcohol. As a form of
relaxation, he usually sleeps or hangs out with his classmates.
Marvin Masalunga
Marnel Masalunga
Like his older brother Marvin, Marnel also has recurring cough and colds. According to
mother Marnel usually has cough and colds at the same time as Marvin “sabay silang nagkakasakit
ni Marvin.” Marnel a pre-schooler in Nagsaulay Day Care Center, is reported to have good appetite
in eating and loves to eat vegetables.
He usually plays with his brother Marvin and seldom takes naps. He is also completely
immunized, and has not experienced having meascles, mumps or chickenpox.
Mariel Masalunga
Marnel was not breastfed since birth. According to Riza, Mariel doesn’t want her breastmilk
so she gave formula milk instead. Mariel can consume at least three 100 ml bottle of Milo everyday.
His mother also claimed that Mariel has a good appetite. He is fond of eating bread and biscuits for
merienda and also eats rice and fish during lunch and dinner.
Like his two older brothers, Mariel often has recurring cough and colds which lasts for 2-5
days. He also experiences fever that usually lasts for 2- 3 days. Mariel has complete immunization
and had not experienced having chickenpox, mumps, and meascles.
For the family being healthy means the person has a good appetite, is active and has
sufficient energy to do everyday task. On the other hand, they describe an unhealthy person as
someone who is pale, sickly and gloomy. To maintain a healthy body they believe that a person
should have a well balanced diet, complete immunization and sufficient rest. They believe that if one
gets sick, it might be because of bacteria, insufficient nutrient intake, “kulam” or “bati” or is
inherited.
They consult the Health Center or a “medico/albularyo” when they are sick. They also
self medicate by using herbal medicines or drugs such as Alaxan, Neozep and Biogesic . When it
comes to taking medicines mother claimed that they are compliant and takes the medicine until the
designated date.
