TAILIEUCHUNG - Health education in prisons: assessment of an experience with diabetics

However, scientific evidence about behaviour change and the development of young people’s bodies and their capacity for processing information has changed the ways many in the health sector think and act about school health. The Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, drafted in 1986, set out a wider concept of health about school health promotion and offered five key planks of action for promoting health. This document played a significant role in influencing how the health sector thinks. The very widely used and accepted framework of the Health Promoting School (HPS) is an outcome of this.

Method Descriptive and cross-sectional study carried out at Huelva Prison. Information was acquired using questionnaires prepared for the study. A descriptive analysis was then made using averages for quantitative variables and absolute and relative frequencies for the quantitative variables. Results 27 interviewed diabetics 24 men and 3 women participation rate response rate average age CI 95 to . insulin dependent and receiving oral anti-diabetic treatment. Hit rate in questions assessing knowledge was over 80 . Conclusions The study derives from the need to increase awareness of inmates difficulties in adapting standard diets to the nutritional requirements imposed by the illness. Short term results such as these cannot be used to assess changes of attitude although one notable conclusion that can be drawn is the high level of participation and interest by inmates and the consequent possibility of setting up self-help groups.
