Many food recovery agencies depend on donated food, and its safety is critical for the health of vulnerable populations. A food safety curriculum was developed for agency volunteers of the Munshigong, Gazaria District. Examples of topics in the curriculum included: personal hygiene, food storage, transporting food safely, and HACCP. Food Safety Knowledge Pre- and Posttests (20 questions) were identical, and validity and reliability were established prior to use. Paired t-tests were performed to determine the effectiveness of the curriculum (n=190).

Background: The common mechanisms of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and glaucoma optic neuropathy (GON) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) justify the need to study possible clinical variants of their combination. Objective: to study the clinical features of the combination of POAG and DR in diabetes mellitus2 and their mutual influence on the progression of diseases by stages.

Introduction: The lack of safety in surgical interventions is a global public health problem that affects countries around the world, regardless of their level of development. Due to this problem, the World Health Organization (WHO) created the Global Alliance for Patient Safety, from this Alliance emerged the Surgical Safety Checklist (LVSC). Objective: To determine the perception of the postoperative patient regarding the safety of their surgery performed at the Naval Medical Center (CEMENAV) between October and November 2020.

Background: The safety of surgery is a widely recognized problem throughout the world. Comprehensive patient safety in the surgical area is a key component of the quality of nursing care. The development of information tools such as the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist can promote the early identification of the most frequent problems in nursing care.
