 CHAPTER3: COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT
Health:

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), health is a “State of complete physical,
mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease”. It means proper functioning of the
body and the mind.

Hygiene:
To keep ourselves free from diseases and maintain good health we need to practice proper
hygiene. The various practices that help in maintaining health constitute hygiene. The word hygiene comes
from a Greek word Hygeia that means ‘Goddess of health’. Adopting hygienic practices and promoting
hygiene in the community, school and workplace prevent spread of many infectious diseases. Hygiene
deals with both personal health as well as community health.

How can we keep our environment clean

To keep the environment clean we need to:
1. Keep our house clean.
2. Keep our neighborhood clean.
3. An effective drainage system is essential as stagnated water allows breeding of mosquitoes.

Have you heard of garbage bins with labels such as “Biodegradable wastes”, “paper waste”,
“Biodegradable green waste” and “Non degradable wastes”? Some of the common garbage
Items generated at our homes are: waste paper, plastic carry bags, vegetable peels, used batteries, stale food
items, used pen, old clothes, and broken glass.

(a) Identify the garbage items you will put in each of these dust bins shown below.
(b)If possible, name the community center or area where such practice is being adopted.

Maintaining hygiene practices reduces the spread of illness and risk of medical conditions
caused by not taking care of yourself. It also increases self-confidence and positively impacts personal
relationships. Keep reading for hygiene practices that help contribute to your overall health and wellness.

Balanced diet:

A balanced diet is one containing carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals and fiber’s
in correct proportion to meet the nutritional requirement of a person at a certain age and doing a certain
amount of physical work.

The energy requirement for moderately active adolescent (teenage) boy is about 2200 to 2400
Calories where as for adolescent girls it is 2000 Calories. The food pyramid shown in figure depicts the
different categories of food and their quantities that we need to include in our diet.

Prevention

• Increased awareness of the reasons for lifestyle related disorders.

• Regular exercise, yoga, meditation.

 CHAPTER 6 : CONCLUSION

We visited the Rayadurgam town , discussed with town MLA and people in the Town.
As the town has most of the problems like transportation, sanitation, health, water facilities, etc. We had
surveyed on “HEALTH AND HYGEINE” conditions in Rayadurgam town. Rayadurgam is better in the
hospitality. Rayadurgam has a old hospital, but there is not have much government doctors in that hospital.
Only once in a month health camp is conducting in the surrounding village and in emergency conditions
.Poor water connection is being provided by the municipality. Drainage system is not much good. People
are less aware of diseases and their causes. Most of the people are migrating from the town due to less
facilities, hospitality, transportation etc.,.

Most of all people requested the government to develop the old hospital in their town.
They need clean sanitation and clean water facilities from the government. Garbage collecting & cleaning
should be done regularly. Health aware program’s must be done by the government in order to help people
to live in a better life. These are the main problems that has been rectified to provide a better life.

The following are the some of the health practices to be followed for better life:

Health and hygiene are the two factors that play an important role in a human's life.

The life span of human beings is mostly based on the individual's health.

Health is maintained by taking hygienic food at the proper interval of time.

The mortality rate can be decreased if the person consumes only hygienic food and maintains his or her
health in good condition.

Most of the food items act as medicines for certain diseases.

Thus, being healthy and consuming hygienic food is essential.

Pure drinking water is vital as it keeps us hydrated and helps in the functioning of our organs and
removing toxins. Untreated water causes diseases like typhoid and cholera.

Proper garbage disposal helps to keep the surroundings clean.

Defecation in the open is very unhygienic, and it needs to stop.

Adopting healthy practices not just benefit individuals but society as well.

A healthy community makes the nation stronger.

Cleanliness is not the responsibility of only one person however, it is the responsibility of each and

every person.
