THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
The respiratory system, an intricate network that includes the lungs and airways such as the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles, along with the diaphragm, larynx, pharynx, nose, and mouth, is vital for life. Its primary role is to facilitate the inhalation of oxygen and the exhalation of carbon dioxide. Beyond this essential function, it plays a critical role in maintaining homeostasis and defending the body against harmful particles and pathogens

Importancia de la Comunicación al Ofrecer Servicios al Adulto Mayor
La comunicación es la base de las relaciones humanas. El cuidador se comunica diariamente con personal administrativo, y otros miembros del equipo de salud para conocer sus responsabilidades y ofrecer los servicios adecuados, seguros, y de alta calidad. El cuidador también se comunica con el adulto mayor y su familia para llenar las expectativas del plan de cuidado y de la persona. Es necesario desarrollar destrezas de la comunicación que ayuden a mantener una interacción profesional y respetuosa entre el equipo de salud y todas las personas con las cuales el cuidador entra en contacto diariamente.

Emergencias Médicas, el Adulto Mayor, y su Seguridad
Todo cuidador es responsable de la seguridad que la facilidad de salud ofrece, especialmente de la seguridad del adulto mayor previniendo accidentes y situaciones que puedan infligir daño y heridas tanto físicas como mentales y emocionales. Esto se conoce como proactividad. Una persona que es proactivo anticipa algo y no necesita un estímulo o instrucción que le indique que debe iniciar una acción. La persona proactiva anticipa y propone una postura activa antes de que las cosas sucedan. De la misma manera, el cuidador debe velar y evitar acciones que puedan poner en riesgo su propia seguridad.

Prevención y el Control de Infecciones
Vivimos rodeados por gérmenes. Podemos encontrar gérmenes en el aire, en el agua, en la tierra y dentro del ser humano. La palabra germen es el termino general que se utiliza para describir el origen de algo; o la forma en que la vida de un organismo, animal o vegetal comienza. Hay gérmenes que pueden ser de ayuda o que pueden causar daño. En el contorno de la prevención y control de infecciones, la palabra germen se refiere a agentes biológicos patógenos también conocidos como microbios. Un patógeno es un microorganismo que se adhiere a otro organismo mayor conocido también como organismo huésped capaz de provocar una enfermedad o infección.

La Salud Mental del Adulto Mayor
De acuerdo con la Organización Mundial de la Salud, en el 2050 la proporción mundial de adultos mayores de 60 años se duplicará, pasando del 12% al 22%. La Visión de las Naciones Unidas para ese año promueve el desarrollo de una infraestructura de salud que satisfaga las necesidades del adulto mayor. Debido a los avances médicos y tecnológicos, las personas mayores presentarán cuadros clínicos complejos, con múltiples enfermedades y condiciones requiriendo un mayor conocimiento de las destrezas necesarias para proporcionar una atención adecuada. Los adultos mayores son más propensos a experimentar eventos adversos como el duelo, una reducción de los ingresos o un sentido de pérdida de propósito con la jubilación.

The Power of Listening
“Everyone who is wise in heart accepts the commandments, but the fool in his lips will be punished.”
– Proverbs 10:8
True listening is an act of humility. When we pay attention to what others are saying, without judgment, we allow the other person to feel seen and valued.
03
Gratitude in Everyday Life
“Give thanks in everything, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.”
– Thessalonians 5:18
Gratitude transforms the way we experience life. It is not easy to see the good when you are surrounded by darkness.

Fortress Amid Chaos
“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.”
– Psalm 29:11
At times, life and the healthcare environment can feel overwhelming. True strength comes not just from our efforts but from trusting God’s control. Relying solely on others can lead to deception.

Nurturing Our Purpose
“For I know the plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans of prosperity and not of calamity, to give you a future and a hope.”
– Jeremiah 29:11
Keeping the passion and a sense of purpose alive strengthens our spirit. Today, reflect on what led you to dedicate yourself to caring for others.
