Title: Wellness Audit Report In this service/centre that I’m working in, I’ve attended the courses that they provide which is The Diploma in Children’s Services, as an early childhood educator were expected to participate in various health classes in order to meet our centre’s requirements. Our centre aims to offer and provide a secure, loving and stimulating environment in which the individual needs of each child can be met. We provide a special regard for the cultural, language and ethnic needs of all the children and their families.
Because of these classes and courses that we were required to take, I consider myself to be somewhat knowledgeable on the subject of human health. I learned about the six dimensions of health and understood that there was more to being a healthy person than being well physically. I was also taught that I have a great deal of control over my wellness. I was taught that by making positive or negative lifestyle choices I would be controlling my level of wellness. I know quite a bit about what I should and shouldn’t do, so why do I still make negative choices?
