This time I will write about my ideal job I would love to exercise in the future. First, has to be a job that makes me happy, a job that makes me feels complete. And if it's possible, that let me time for stay in my home and share with my family too.
Where I would like to work is in the Hospital “Luis Tisné”, because it is very beautiful and also is very near to my house.
I would like to work in the area of Neonatology.
I think that for do this work, I have to be willing to give everything for the well-being of the baby. Obviously, have all the abilities necessary and be psychologically prepared to face any situation that could be problematic.
As midwife, I must make the integration of the family at this important moment, as is the arrival of a new member to the family. For the pregnant woman is really important, she have the support of the people nearest and be accompanied at this moment of joy.
I would like to attend people more simple, because it is these people who most need our help.
As a health's specialty, there are not troubles to find a job because are very required and births happen every day.
The prevention is closely linked to the concept of education, understood as a complex social process by the number of people who convenes and the variables that it proposes (society, economy, etc).
Prevention has like propose to prevent the emergence of risks of health in person, family and community. It involves to act for a problem that does not appear or, to lessen its effects, this is accomplished through research, teamwork and also it needs the knowledge, the initiative and creativity.
Like a future midwife I will contribute to the education of society, in the area of family planning and sexuality, for example prevent and promote through of talks to the partner about reproductive health to prevent STDs. Also like midwife, I will contribute to the health care of pregnant women and of the babies to prevent diseases.
The health professionals do different activities of prevention depending of the individual, family and community levels, for example through lectures, brochures, murals and many other forms.
The objective of these activities is to educate people for the prevention of diseases, but if this can not change the mentality and lifestyle of people, prevention will not be.
In Chile, the main issues that must educate to meet the needs of society, is the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS and we must also avoid alcoholism, smoking and other bad habits that cause serious diseases today.
Today I will talk about the prejudices that affect both, men and women, and that cause so many differences between genders.
One of the examples that I can talk about is my career. Today, more and more men are integrated into this career, this lets us to see how to change the prejudices, because this career was purely feminine. I think this is fine, because it delivers diversity to the career and a different view. Also I think that little by little the difference between women and men that work in the midwifery will be reduced and will be equal.
Respect to responsibility, both genders have the same responsibilities in health, and therefore should have the same salary, although today is not so.
In this career, perhaps the users prefer to be attended for a midwife (female) than for a midwife (male), because the user can feel more comfortable with a woman than with a man, or simply she thinks that midwives (female) can be put in place as a woman.
Compared with others countries, the gender issues among health workers, are similar with Chile, althought always exist problems gender, but this has been reduced over the years.
In general, I think that they should open our minds, and ignore those prejudices that do not help at all, and appreciate to a professional for their quality and competences, not that it is male or female.
Where I would like to work is in the Hospital “Luis Tisné”, because it is very beautiful and also is very near to my house.
