The Abayon family, comprising extended family members including grandparents,

parents, and children, share a close bond in their home. Mr. Abayon serves as a forest
ranger, while Mrs. Abayon works at DENR. With two children aged 7 and 5, the parents
share parenting duties while the grandparents assist with childcare during their work
hours. Despite busy schedules, they prioritize family time with regular outings and
outdoor activities. Their eldest child loves soccer, and both parents actively engage in
supporting their children's extracurricular pursuits.

The Abayon family, a Filipino household in a middle-class neighborhood, has stable jobs
and a moderate income, enough to cover basic needs such as housing, food, and
education. Both parents have stable jobs, providing a sense of security for the family.
The family values health more than anything, so they make sure to have adequate
funds for medical emergencies and expenses. The Abayon family places a strong
emphasis on family unity, respect for elders, and the importance of extended family
connections.

The Abayon family resides in a modest but comfortable home made of a combination of
wood and cement with a small backyard, surrounded by plants and flowers. The house
consists of one room for the parents and children, another room for the grandparents, a
small kitchen and dining area, a toilet and bath, and a living area. They live in a safe
and family-friendly environment, dotted with green spaces and walking trails,
encouraging outdoor exercise and promoting a healthy lifestyle for the entire family.

The Abayon family values health more than anything. They make sure to have check-
ups every time a member does not feel well. The father occasionally drinks alcohol and
sometimes experiences hypertension. The mother reports to be generally well. The
children often experience coughs and colds due to changes in the weather. Their eldest
son has allergic rhinitis and has a prescribed medication that he takes during allergies.
The grandparents sometimes experience mild hypertension but do not take any
maintenance medication.

The Abayon family values taking proactive steps to maintain their health and prevent
illnesses before they occur. They prioritize educating themselves and their children
about healthy lifestyle choices, including nutrition, exercise, and proper hygiene
practices. They engage in regular physical activity as a family, whether it's going for
walks, bike rides, or playing sports together. They schedule routine check-ups and
screenings, including vaccinations, dental cleanings, and annual physical exams.
HEALTH THREATH:
Poor home condition
Although the Abayon family lives in a comfortable home, their living space is
inadequate for a growing family. Noise pollution is prominent in their home due to their
neighbors and the kids playing. Unsanitary waste disposal is also observed in their
home.

HEALTH DEFICIT
Hypertension management
Mr. Abayon is experiencing symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and fatigue.
Lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption are additional risk factors that contribute
to Mr. Abayon's hypertension. He experiences high levels of stress due to work and
family responsibilities.

FORESEEABLE CRISIS
Hospitalization of a family member
The Abayon family's foreseeable crisis is the hospitalization of a family member
as their children experience recurrent coughs and colds due to the changing weather.
Mr. Abayon has been diagnosed with Hypertension, and their eldest child has allergic
rhinitis, which may exacerbate and cause hospitalization.
