Abstract

During the First Week of Health Promotion of the University of Burgos (from October 14th to 18th, 2019), the good practice in health promotion «Evaluate your Health» was organized as a service-learning project linked to 2 subjects of the degree in nursing. Students of the subject «Community nursing and health education» designed an educational intervention that was launched at 5 centers of the University of Burgos. Stands were set up where various parameters of health, alcohol consumption and healthy habits of 93 members of the university community were evaluated, and, after contrasting them with the reference values of the World Health Organization, health advice was offered. Data collected, with the approval of the Bioethics Committee of the University of Burgos, were used in research projects of the subject «Research methodology and Information Systems». This type of measure was intended to educate the university population on the convenience of periodic controls of basic parameters that can be indicators of deviations in a person’s general state of health, contributing to the prevention of diseases and promoting the establishment of healthy behaviors.
