ABSTRACT

@#Introduction: A training needs assessment (TNA) was conducted by the Department of Science and Technology, Food and Nutrition Research Institute (DOST-FNRI) to design appropriate and relevant trainings for Municipal Nutrition Action Officers (MNAOs). In the Philippines, MNAO is a nutrition officer who serves at the municipal level and is tasked to ensure the localisation of the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition (PPAN) in Local Government Units (LGU) to ensure proper implementation of activities on Public Health Nutrition (PHN). Methods: A total of 162 MNAOs in the country answered the online TNA survey conducted from April to May 2023. Results: Based on the results of the TNA survey, there was a need for DOST-FNRI to design and conduct trainings related to the top three core competencies identified by MNAOs: Creating policies and standards related to food and nutrition; advocating legislation, regulation, and nutrition policies; and designing appropriate nutrition information education and communication (IEC) materials. Conclusion: Based on the study results, it is recommended that LGUs allocate funds for capacity building of the public health workforce to create a skilled workforce in the community that will coordinate the formulation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of nutrition plans at the municipal level. For future consideration, curriculum design for professional development in public health nutrition should include core competencies on food and nutrition policy programme, nutrition programme management, and IEC development.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the common disease spectrum of grass-root troops, to provide a basis for meeting the needs for military medical support among officers and soldiers, and to improve targeted training of military general practitioners in grass-root troops.Methods:With reference to International Classification of Diseases (9th edition), a questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate 146 types of diseases among the military doctors in grass-root troops. SPSS 23.0 was used to determine the score of the common degree of each disease, and the mean score of each disease was ranked. At the same time, the Kendell consistency test was used to compare the scores of doctors between different altitudes and troops.Results:Most grass-root military doctors were male graduates aged 20-39 years, among whom 109 (51.90%) did not receive continuing education, and there were 140 doctors (66.67%) belonging to the health company, 11 (5.24%) belonging to the health platoon, 35 (16.67%) belonging to the health clinic, and 24 (11.42%) belonging to the health team. As for the location of the troops, there were 42 doctors (20.00%) in the temperate zone, 56 (26.67%) in the subtropical zone, 57 (27.14%) in the alpine region, 37 (17.62%) in the plains, and 18 (8.57%) on the islands. There were 173 patients with an age of 20-29 years, accounting for 82.38%. The Kendell consistency test showed Kendell's W=0.968 ( χ 2=711.51, P<0.001), suggesting a consistent evaluation of 146 diseases by grass-roots doctors from different altitudes. Conclusion:With reference to the investigation of disease spectrum, it is necessary to formulate characteristic training objectives and contents for the training of military general practitioners, explore the training models and methods for military general practitioners in grass-root troops, promote the construction of military general practitioners during the new military reform, and improve the post competency of military doctors.
