CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
Health is a universal word defined and described by various
individuals. People view health according to their personal
experiences and its implication on their philosophies in life.
Different factors contribute in defining health by a person.
These factors also affect the persons approach on the
management of his or her health. Thus, effective health
management relies on the person and the definition of health
established.
People regardless of status experience health in a
different manner. Their health is affected as well as the health
management practices that they utilize by the type of
occupation, recreation and routines they have. Some of the
important health management practices necessary for optimum
health such as exercise and recreation are sometimes hindered by
the nature of work for working mothers and sedentary lifestyle
for unemployed. Opportunities for health matters were often set
aside especially when busyness to household chores took over.
Health programs implemented by public or private health
sectors or institutions could help in reaching out these health
concerns of mothers. Through the aid of these health programs,
mothers will be empowered to take action towards better health
management practices.

CHAPTER II BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
HERDS (Health Education/Health Trivia, Rest and Recreation,
Dance Exercise and Stress Management) is a health program
formulated to assist mothers of Purok 6, Barangay 2, San Mateo,
Isabela with regard to their health management. This program is
composed of several health components designed to help them
improve their health management practices. One of the components
of HERDS program is Health Education.
Health Education is an important feature of this health
program since it aid in the promotion, maintenance and
restoration of health. Through this component of the program,
they were given opportunities to acquire health information and
techniques to improve the quality of their health and at the
same time their life. Health education is the profession ofeducating people about health. Areas within this profession
encompass environmental health, physical health, social health,
emotional health, intellectual health, and spiritual health. It
can be defined as the principle by which individuals and groups
of people learn to behave in a manner conducive to the
promotion, maintenance, or restoration of health . However, as
there are multiple definitions of health , there are also
multiple definitions of health education. The Joint Committee on
Health Education and Promotion Terminology of 2001 defined

Health Education as "any combination of planned learning
experiences based on sound theories that provide individuals,
groups, and communities the opportunity to acquire information
and the skills needed to make quality health decisions." The
World Health Organization defined Health Education as
"comprising of consciously constructed opportunities for
learning involving some form of communication designed to
improve health literacy, including improving knowledge, and
developing life skills which are conducive to individual and
community health."
Another component of the health program is the Rest and
Recreation. It is another essential element of the program
because rest facilitates restoration of physical energy and
recreation helps refresh the mind from psychological loads.
Mothers must uplift their minds to be more productive and reduce
the risks of psychological-related illnesses.
The benefits of using relaxation technique are
overwhelming. Regular practice of relaxation techniques will
assist you in relieving muscle tension, reduce anxiety, and
improve your overall well being. Other physiological benefits
include (1) decrease in heart rate; (2) decrease respiration
rate; (3) decrease in blood pressure; (4) decrease in muscle
tension; (5) decrease in metabolic rate and oxygen consumption.

Practicing relaxation exercises 20 30 minutes on a daily basis
can produce, over time, a general feeling of relaxation and
increased well being that benefits every area of your life.
When you feel relaxed and at ease, you feel more in control
which leads to calm, realistic responses (www.
Mckinley.illinois.edu/Units/Health_Ed/relax_benefits_tips.htm).
Dance exercise is another one of the components of the
HERDS program. This element aims to promote the physical aspect
of health through the benefits of exercise. Exercise promotes
good circulation of the blood and reduces the risk of
cardiovascular diseases. Dance exercise is a form of exercise
that does not only free the bones and muscles of the body but
lifts the spirit as well. Dancing is an ancient form of movement
that has been part of our lives from the beginning of time. It
is an interesting form of exercise that can improve health.
Learning to dance can be a fun, social, local and friendly
approach of getting pleasure from low intensity physical
activity and skill learning. It is an aerobic exercise and an
excellent way to improve physical fitness, free our bones,
muscles, and joints. ( http://hubpages.com/hub/WALKING-AND-
DANCING-ARE-PERFECT-EXERCISES ).
The last component of the program is the Stress Management.
Stress is a natural phenomenon that is experienced by any

individual (Bobak, 1991). Stress is naturally part of life. It
can bring about different burdens when experienced but with
proper stress management, these burdens can be prevented. This
part of the program can be very beneficial to mothers in gaining
techniques to manage the stressors at their work at home and
even at their own offices or institutions.
The HERDS program intends to influence mothers toward
better health management practices and to promote more health-
oriented individuals.
The researcher has conceptualized an approach to assess the
response of mothers to the health program. Thus, this research
study aims to determine the impact of the HERDS program in the
improvement of the health management practices of mothers of
Purok 6, Barangay 2, San Mateo, Isabela.

be utilized in data gathering. The questionnaire consists of
three parts namely:
1. Profile of the Respondents
1.1 Name
1.2 Age
1.3 Gender
1.4 Occupation
2. Health Management Practices before the HERDS Program
3. Health Management Practices after the HERDS Program
Data Gathering Procedure
The researcher will obtain the necessary data for the
research study by means of the following procedures: First, the
researcher will formulate a questionnaire that could seek out
the necessary thing for the success of the study. A letter for
the target respondents was made and at the same time, a letter
to the officer in - charge will be done stating the purpose of
the action research to be conducted. After securing the letter

grouped according to gender, age and occupation.
1.1 frequency (f) refers to the number of
respondents who favor certain condition
1.2 percentage (%) refers to the percentage of the
condition and respondents with the following
2. Weighted Mean
This will be utilized to obtain the average responses
of the respondents to every item in the questionnaire.
To further interpret the implication of the means, the
following arbitrary scale will be used:
