Before You Begin

Human beings suffer from various diseases. Some diseases
like goitre, paralysis, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc. do not
transmit from a sick person to a healthy person. These diseases are
called non-communicable diseases. These diseases are not caused
by germs or microbes. The diseases which do not transmit from
one person to another are called non-communicable diseases.

Non-communicable diseases are caused due to lack of nutrients,
malfunctioning of body organs, lack of proper physical exercise,
consumption of alcohol, tobacco, drugs, etc. and due to mental
tension or hyper tension. In this unit, we will study the causes,
symptoms and preventive measures of cancer, heart diseases and
diabetes.

Learning Objectives

After completing the study of this unit, students will be able to:

(i) introduce non-communicable diseases and describe their
causes.

danger. An accident is an unpleasant event which occurs suddenly
and causes injury or damage. Accidents may occur at any time and
place to any person. Most accidents can be avoided by adopting
safety rules. The injured people must be given first aid immediately
before they are taken to the hospital. The help given to the injured
person until the medical treatment is available is called first aid. In
this unit, we will discuss various safety rules and first aid to some
common accidents.

Learning Objectives

event that occurs suddenly and causes injury is called an accident. Some
accidents are very dangerous as they may cause spot death. Accidents occur
while walking, running, playing, climbing, jumping, crossing the road, driving
the vehicles, etc. Some accidents may occur due to natural disasters like flood,
landslide, earthquake, etc. Accidents usually occur when we are careless. Most
accidents can be avoided by adopting safety rules. Safety is the state of being
safe and protected from accidents.

Sometimes we fall sick or meet an accident. We seek treatment from
various health institutions like health post, clinics, hospitals, etc.
These institutions provide us health services. The services that we
get from health institutions to prevent various infections are called
health services. A community is a group of families living together.
The members of a community should work together to maintain good
health of the people. Community health is the combined effort of the
community to provide health services to the people. Co-operation of
the people in the community plays a vital role to assist each other in
getting services when they fall sick or meet with accidents.

Health Services and Co-operation

When we fall sick or meet with an accident, we need treatment or health
services. Different health institutions like health posts, clinics, hospitals, etc.
provide various health services. We receive health services to prevent the
transmission of diseases and to cure injuries or diseases. The services that we
receive from health institutions to prevent various diseases and to cure our
illness are called health services.

Fig. Fig.25.1 (b)
(a)

In a locality, the group of people living together is called community. Each
member of community should play a great role to maintain good health of
the people. The main objective of community health is to improve individual
health as well as environmental health of the community.

Community health provides information regarding health services and hence
it helps to generate awareness among the community members.

25.2 (b)
(a)

An individual's effort will not be sufficient to solve all the health problems in
a community. Therefore, all the members of a community should work together
for providing health services to the people when they are in need. Similarly,
the community members should involve in development works like building
public toilets, establishing health institutions, etc. The community members

Science, Health and Physical Education Book-4 GREEN BOOK 171

should conduct various programmes to generate awareness regarding child
health care, family health, maternal health care and communicable diseases.

We can live a healthy life by adopting

healthy behaviour. The health services

should be available to every part of the

country. In rural areas of Nepal, most

people depend on Dhami, Jhankri,

Jharphuk, Tantrik, etc. to treat diseases
Fig.
Fig.rather seeking health services from

health institutions. Some people believe 25.3
in god and hide some curable diseases

like leprosy, tuberculosis due to superstitions. We should generate awareness

to eliminate such types of superstitions.

In our country various health institutions like hospitals, nursing homes, clinics,
health posts, sub-health posts, primary health centres, etc. have been established to
provide health services. In these institutions doctors, nurses, health assistants, etc.
provide health services. They not only cure diseases but also suggest preventive
and control measures for various diseases. In our country, sub-healthposts, health
posts and primary healthpost centres provide health services to a large number of
people. However, these health institutions are not able to provide proper health
services due to lack of health personnel. Similarly, hospitals provide preventive
curative and rehabilitative services from outdoor and indoor departments.
However, the number of hospitals is limited in Nepal.

25.4 (b)
(a)

We should go to health institutions to get treatment when we fall sick. We
should take our family members or community members to health post or
hospital when they fall sick. We should visit health institutions regularly for
health checkup. We should vaccinate our children which helps to develop
immunity against diseases. We should encourage community members to
seek health services from various heath institutions.

172 GREEN BOOK Science, Health and Physical Education Book-4

We should co-operate with the people in our community. We should help the people
who are in need. Co-operation of the people in the community plays an important
role to provide health services to each and every member of a community.

Before You Begin

Locomotive skills are the basic skills in physical education. They
include walking, running, jumping, hopping, skipping, throwing,
etc. These activities keep our body healthy, fit and fine. We need
basic locomotive skills to play games like volleyball, football,
basketball, etc. We can move our body parts skillfully and flexibly.
In this unit, we will practise some locomotive skills like walking
and running.

Learning Objectives

After completing the study of this unit, students will be able to:
(i) introduce and perform locomotive skills.
(ii) say how to walk properly in measured steps, walk in pairs

and walk by imitation.

Walking

The act of moving slowly with the help of legs is called walking. The proper
way of walking keeps our body fit and fine. We should walk on the heel of the
foot and gradually take help of front side of the foot.

For the proper way of walking, students should be gathered in a group and
should be given commands as slow march, double march and halt. Let the
students walk forward and backward by swinging hands according to the
movement. Let us practise the following activities to develop the proper way
of walking.

Running

Running is the act of moving fast by bending the body forward. We can reach
a place faster by running than by walking. The movement of legs and hands
is faster in running. Running makes our body strong and healthy. Similarly,
it makes our mind alert. We should know certain rules of running and apply
them while running. Running can be done in various ways, e.g. short distance
running, long distance running, hurdle (obstacle) race, relay race, etc. Let us
enjoy short distance race of 50 metre and hurdle race.
