Issues of inequity and health are complex, and this makes them hard to solve. What would be one solution to limited healthcare o
lara31 [8.8K]

One of the solutions to limited healthcare as a result of limited facilities in rural areas would be to have standby ambulances for cases that cannot be handled.

<h3>Solutions to limited healthcare in rural areas</h3>

Available health facilities are limited in rural areas for a variety of reasons. Some of these could be:

  • Lack of manpower to handle equipment and facilities.
  • Lack of regular usage of facilities leading to their malfunctioning
  • The inequity of the government
  • Lack of access roads and general infrastructural facilities

One way to tackle this problem would be to refer cases that cannot be handled in the rural area to the nearest urban hospital and this can be achieved by providing standby ambulances to transfer patients.

What are three changes you can make in your daily food and exercise habits to help reduce the chances of being overweight/obese
natta225 [31]

Obesity is a physical condition where the BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is over 30%. There are few factors that contribute to obesity, such an over average daily calories intake, the lack of physical exercise and in general the lack of healthy habits in the current lifestyle.

In order to reduce obesity, it is necessary to learn what kinds of foods are good for our body and what are not: there are guidelines from different association, such as the American Society for Nutrition, that indicates that is possible to reduce obesity is possible if people are going to start eating healthy and exercise regularly.

Eating healthy means that there should be plenty of vegetables and fruits incorporate into the diet, where other foods such as red and processed meat should be consumed in small quantity or not at all. Drink plenty of water is another suggestion that is possible to give.

As a young person, I think it is time to take responsibility and starting a more healthy lifestyle, in order to live just as our parents if not more. On the other side, there is the fact that eating unhealthy is sometimes cheaper and easier, while perhaps the school system should encourage and teach us that it is possible to feed ourselves in a way that is going to make us live longer and be healthier.
