Question Answered step-by-step Water quality is important to ensure the safety of effected peopleshealth. Water should be at a sufficient quality to be drunk and used for cooking and also suitable to use for hygenic purposes.When use of a centrally operated water treatment system is not possible, point-of-use water treatment (PoUWT) at the household level can be an alternative. Drinking water supplies need to be treated during and after an emergency to make them safe. Treatment at the point of use is generally quicker and less expensive, but it can be more difficult to manage than a centeralized system. Only water used for drinking and preparing food needs to be treated.13, 14Some pretreatment methods for obtaining potable water are aeration, settlement, filtration and disenfection.Aeration will remove volatile substances such as hydrogen sulphide and methane which affect taste and odour; reduce the carbon dioxide content of the water; and facilitates sedimentation and filtration of iron and manganese by oxidation. One simple method at the household scale is to rapidely shake a water container and leave it standing for 30 minutes. This methods allows the suspended solids and some pathogens (such as Guinea worm – dracunculiasis) to settle the bottom of the containerDay Peak Downtime Duration (Mins) Frequency Non-Peak Downtime Duration (Mins) Frequency1 20 3 21 22 14 1 18 13 47 4 20 44 32 1 07 25 12 2 44 36 39 2 29 17 09 4 30 18 17 3 22 39 11 1 19 210 35 2 14 2o What nonfinancial value conflicts might patients have with respect to this issue?o What nonfinancial value conflicts might healthcare providers have with respect to this issue?o What nonfinancial value conflicts might insurance companies have with respect to this issue?o What nonfinancial value conflicts might other stakeholders have with respect to this issue?o Why is it important to understand these value conflicts when making decisions related to health policy?o Why is it important to consider nonfinancial stakeholder and/or interest group impacts when it comes to making health policy decisions, particularly relating to this issue?  Health Science Science Nursing Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
