Hello everybody, today I want to talk about education and prevention, I will start talking about the definition.

Measures for not only to prevent the onset of the disease, such as reducing risk factors, also to stop its progression and alleviate the consequences once established. (WHO, 1998).

The objective is interrupt progressive course of disease and
Preventing secondary cases.
this is important because is better prevent that regret, is more expensive and you need more time for heal after you have the illness. For prevent at individual level you can promote the use of the condom for the prevention of sexually disease, give nutritional education for prevent a lot of related disease, teach about the consequences about smoke cigarette, promote the exercise minimum three times a weeks, and avoid the stress.

In the family level you can give education for a healthy fellowship, and in the community level you can doing prevention about the atmospheric pollution.

As a midwife I can do a lot of curses of nutrition in the pregnancy, early stimulation, teach about mother lactancy, healthy style life, etc.

The job of the midwife include many options for the prevention and education, while more earlier the prevention better the relation between cost and benefits, also is necessary a responsible compromise of the government to achieve a good job.
