Abstract

The goal of this study is to determine the sources of drinking water and identify ailments among the respondents that are related to water consumption. The study was undertaken to ascertain the sources of drinking water used and its impact on health on Capual Island. The research will also determine whether the respondents' water-related illnesses are significantly impacted by their sources of drinking water. Residents of Capual Island will gain knowledge about local sources of drinking water and illnesses associated with water from the study. Male and female respondents from 287 households were polled. Regarding the data analysis and interpretation, a statistician was consulted. Frequency tables were used to present the data. For the study, the researchers utilized a descriptive-predictive research methodology. The entire population of Barangay Capual had been used by the researchers. The Rural Health Unit-Omar can help communities improve their drinking water by educating them on proper cleaning of their sources of drinking water, installing covers on their deep wells, making sure there are no animals in their water sources, and sanitizing their drinking water. Typhoid fever and diarrhea were the most common water-related diseases among respondents, topping the survey with 84.7% and 85.0%, respectively. Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree should provide lectures on waterborne illnesses and inform residents of additional methods for sanitizing their drinking water. It is important to inform the people of Barangay Capual that their homes should have backup water sources. Additionally, according to the experts, filtering and boiling the drinking water before use is important and will lower the risk of contracting waterborne illnesses and their fatal consequences. Future researchers may use it as a backbone for further study by taking on other variables that were not tested in this study.

Abstract

Where formal medical–veterinary linkages are weak or nonexistent, as in BASULTA, zoonotic risks are commonly governed through informal institutional mechanisms that may be described as pragmatic “political settlements” operating at the local level. Health workers often use tacit and networked knowledge and culture-specific coordination—such as consultation with local animal handlers, traditional healers,barangay leaders (village heads), and environmental officers—to recognize disease patterns before they are reportable ZDs. Although undocumented, these informal mechanisms enable communities to adjust quickly in geographically isolated and resource-poor territories and are an indication of what De Vera (2022) refers to as negotiated governance in conflict-affected areas. Instead of these configurations being seen as deficits, One Health “policies on paper” should identify and incorporate them as realistic nodes for institutionalization. This may require mediation of community-based animal health workers, institutionalization of local reporting pathways into surveillance and multi-actor protocols that value experiential knowledge as much as technical expertise. Although mired at local scale by piecemeal efforts, embedding such locally adapted coping mechanisms into formal policy can shift One Health implementation in BARMM away from externally-driven models and towards context responsive modes of governance sensitive to everyday practices; while supporting a resilient system overtime.
