Health Survey Health Survey In the present era, health surveys play a vital role in determining the health status of the population and it is a procedure in disclosing the prevalent health issues of the society in relation to other variables. Health surveys generally include measures of risk factors, health behaviours, and non-health determinants or correlates of health such as socioeconomic status. The range of measures that can be included is wide and varies by survey. Age, gender, and race/ethnicity are the basic demographic variables that are included in health surveys. Socioeconomic determinants of health include education, income, geographic region, and place of residence. Strong health differentials are found across these variables, and public programs are designed to eliminate these health disparities. However, the relationship between these measures and health is often complex. Social factors can act as causal agents or they can be affected by health. In order to identify causal relationships between determinants and outcomes, longitudinal designs are needed. The causal pathways are more easily teased apart if health surveys can include a broader array of potential determinants of health (biological, psychological, and social). Tobacco use, alcohol use, diet, and physical exercise are common health behaviours that are included in health surveys. As in the case of health status, these concepts present difficult measurement challenges. Obtaining valid information on behaviours such as diet, smoking, and exercise requires significant survey time. Diet is particularly difficult to capture in the survey context. The information obtained would then be linked to external data bases that contain the nutritional content of foods. These databases are expensive and time consuming to develop. There is also a tendency for respondents to underreport negative behaviours such as smoking, and this is even more of a problem for surveys that obtain information on illegal activities such as drug use. Survey procedures have been developed to improve reporting of health behaviours such as maximizing privacy to encourage accurate reporting and developing aids to enhance memory. By keeping this in mind, Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College has follows Health Survey as a healthy practice of the institution from the 2004-05 onwards. Department of Community Medicine and National Service Scheme of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College jointly organises Health Survey annually in Kanniyakumari District. 1 Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College was established in 2000, as a self- financing institution, under K.V. Education Trust with the intention to provide value based, research oriented medical education in Homoeopathy and dedicated patient care to the needy and poor in the neighbourhood. The institution presently offers BHMS, PG and research programmes in five areas of specialisation namely Organon of Medicine, Materia Medica, Practice of Medicine, Repertory and Paediatrics. Even though, the college is situated at Kulasekharam, it provides homoeopathic health care throughout the district to the needy without any disparity such as rural or urban, remote or hilly, privileged or under privileged, rich or poor through the Collegiate Hospital or Peripheral Health Centers. Institution provides training to homoeopaths for conducting health survey using standardised questionnaire and analysed and interpreted accordingly. Usually, the analysed reports were handed over to the district administration for policy decision and further action. About Kanyakumari District Kanyakumari was part of the Travancore Samasthanam (Kerala) till the early forties of the 20th century.
