My profession

I'm a student of Abia state college of health, Nigeria in the department of community health science.
Community health science is a branch of medicine that deals with the promotion, prevention and resuscitation of the community's state of complete physical, mental and social well being if the community.
We're the first contact of the community's primary health services.
In curative, preventive and promotive measures, we render promotive, preventive and rehabilitative health services to the community.
Among the components of primary health Care is the health education.
At primary health healthcare sections, we health educate our clients and patients to attend to their full health status.we tender maternal health care, child health care and antenatal health care.

Why I love my profession

I have passion for my profession because of my inborn desire to serve my community. And oh !! thank God my profession is giving me the access to doing what I like most. I feel delighted when I'm giving out what I have; my attributes to the health of the community.
You can imagine someone asking me what to do for a particular health problem, this gives me the opportunity to give what I have and that's medical advice or health education. Doing this is my ""hobby** .
Through this medium I have helped so many people in my community.
Though I'm not an expert in my profession because I'm still on training, I have a little impact in my community's health practice.

My course program

I'm a student in training just as I said earlier.
So this professional course is a three years program. I'm in my final year and preparing for my final national exams.
In this 3_years course, we're allowed to go for industrial training each year to acquire Medical skills. Each year we spend three months in various health institutions.
During my first year, I did my industrial training in Eziama health center, Nkwerre, Imo state in Nigeria. It was a primary health Care center with good referral system and appropriate health services with eligible health components and dexterous trained health personnels.
I spent three months there and I learnt the process of giving injections, setting intravenous lines and conducting child delivery there. I also learned the process of health education, interviews and history taking there.

The second place I did my industrial training is at a private institution managed by a gynaecologist. The clinic is known as 'Nazareth clinic's.

The Nazareth clinic
Here we carry out several health services like gynaecological, paediatric, maternal, antenatal, postnatal and other health services here.
What a beautiful clinic

As a student I embarked on another skill to support my school days financially and that was hair styling.
I acquired this skill before getting admission into college of health. I can make wigs, style hairs and so on.

Conclusion

To conclude my contest, I want to express my gratitude for privilege of participating. I'll like to tell everyone reading my post and who aspires for such profession that this profession is one of the best way to show people how much you love them because you're God's hand in saving life's.
I'm proud of my profession because it's a humanitarian service. It gives you opportunity to help people and render them kind services. God blesses a cheerful giver. When we help the weak and lowly we're lending to God. In as much as we risk our lives at times by our exposure to infectious diseases that can kill inorder to save lives, we sense God's protection.
It's a selfless job, we don't care about this risk because we want to save lives.
We only out in our PPEs (personal protective equipments) but God protect us most.
