The different types of community diagnosis include epidemiological diagnosis, social diagnosis, administrative diagnosis, and ecological diagnosis. Epidemiological diagnosis focuses on the health status of the community, social diagnosis looks at social determinants of health, administrative diagnosis assesses existing health services, and ecological diagnosis considers the physical environment's impact on health.

Methods of community diagnosis include conducting surveys, interviews, focus groups, observation, and analyzing existing data such as health records and demographic information. These methods help gather information about the community's health needs, resources, and challenges, which can inform interventions and policies to improve community health.
A community diagnosis helps identify the health needs and priorities of a community, leading to more targeted and effective interventions. It allows for resources to be allocated efficiently and for strategies to be developed that address specific health issues within the community. Additionally, it promotes community empowerment and engagement in the decision-making process for improving public health.

Hello. I also have done several CDX (Community Diagnoses) way back in college. And for me, I think CIVIL STATUS is very helpful in identifying the root causes of health problems in a community. For example, a community with a high percentage of MARRIED people has a chance of becoming a dense-populated community thus, high rates of street children or out-of-school-youth or worst, prostitution would also be prominent in the diagnosis. A community with high percentage of Divorced/Separated, Widowed and/or Single status on the other hand is most likely to have high rates of unemployment and poverty for lack of partnership support for the whole family. That I think is the relavance of CIVIL STATUS in relation to conducting a CDX.. Hope it somehow helped.
