INITIAL DATA BASE Our duty in the community started last September 29, 2008 and ended on September 30, 2008. Our clinical instructor in the area, Mrs. oriented us on what will be our assignments and routines in our two days stay. The group was divided by pair and was instructed to choose a client for family assessment. This family will be their chosen subject for study. MQP, a client during that time, who happens to have rashes all over his body, which our instructress identified to be measles, was our subject of study. According to the mother, the child had a fever for three days before those rashes appear. Given a subject, me and my partner formulated plans and designated task to done individually. We ask permission to our client to be able to visit her at home. Upon the approval of our request we set a date of visit. The next day, equipped with the necessary tools, we proceeded in their home for our home visit.

Family’s head DDP is 29 years old, born on December 7, 1978, 5’10’’ in height and 153 lbs. in weight. He is a GRCO graduate, presently working in CC in Boni Avenue. His wife NP is 28 years old, born on May 11, 1980, 5’2’’ in height and weighs 119 lbs. She was an undergraduate of the course Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Presently, she was a plain housewife to DDP and a mother to their child. NP was born in the Northern part of Samar while her husband was from the Western part of it. Their three years of marriage was blessed with a healthy baby boy named MQP. He is 61/2 mos.old, 22 inches long and weighs 15.43 lbs. All family members are Roman Catholic. To show their dedication they never fail to go to church every Sunday to give thanks and praise for all the blessings God has given them.
Their family is nuclear in structure. According to them they owned the house but not the land, for it is owned by the government. Common languages spoken were Waray and Tagalog. In times of conflicts and problems they always depend on each other in solving it. For them they can face any kind of hardships and problems as long as they are together.

Majority of the family’s budget is allocated to their food needs. Second to this is their budget to their billings like electricity and water. Based from the table above you can observe that they give
importance to their savings. This is for the preparation of their child’s future. When it comes to their clothing you can observe it has not been indicated above for they seldom spend money in clothing. Financial difficulties of the family are solved by borrowing money from friends and relatives, to be returned after the head of the family received his salary.

The father, DDP was not able to practice it everyday because of work. His wife on the other has a daily routine exercise in a form of dancing. Their child on the other hand was still too young to participate in the activity.
C.Values, Belief and Practices Just like typical Filipinos they grow up to an environment wherein respect was being emphasized. The kind of environment they want their child to have and grow-up with. They do not want him to be
stubborn or disrespectful in front of people older than him. They want him to believe and have faith in God just like them. For them what they plant to their child is what they will also earn in the future.

What to teach… What is measles?
Measles is one of the most contagious viral diseases. It is caused by paramyxo virus and is the most unpleasant and the most dangerous of the children's diseases that result in a rash. This is due to the complications of the disease. How is measles transmitted? •
Droplets transfer the infections. Although the sick person may be in isolation, the disease may still spread from room to room.
•
Anybody who has not already had measles can be infected.
•
Infants up to four months of age will not be infected if their mother has had measles herself because they will be protected by her antibodies.
•
The incubation period - the time between infection and the outbreak of the condition - is usually one to two weeks.
•
Patients are infectious from four days before the onset of the rash until five days after it appears.
What are the symptoms of measles? After about 14 days the following symptoms start showing: •
A fever at about 39ºC.
•
A cold.
•
Coughing, possibly with a barking cough.
•
Sore throat - the lymph nodes in the throat may swell.
•
Reddish eyes.
•
Sensitivity to light.
•
Grayish spots, the size of grains of sand may appear in the mucous membrane of the mouth just around the molar teeth. These are called Koplik's spots and can be seen before the rash appears.
•
After three to four days the temperature may fall, although it can run high again when the rash appears.
•
The rash usually begins around the ears and spreads to the body and the legs within a day or two.
•
At first the spots are very small - a couple of millimeters - but they double in size quickly and begin to join together.
•
The spots are a clear red color.
•
The temperature, which may run as high as 40ºC, may stay that high for a couple of days. Then it disappears together with the rash, which may leave some brown spots.
•
After a week the child will be fit again.
How are measles treated? The treatment is to stay in bed in a cool room without any bright lights. Medicines for coughing and reducing the temperature should only be given after consulting a GP.
