Abstract

Low adherence of patients with Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) and the elderly to scheduled follow-up visits remains a major challenge in primary healthcare services. This issue contributes to delayed detection of complications and reduced effectiveness in managing chronic conditions. This community service program aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the TERKONTROL application—an automated WhatsApp-based reminder system designed to improve the regularity of patient follow-up visits. The program was implemented at Dasan Agung Public Health Center using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, actively involving program officers, academic facilitators, and patients. The desktop-based application features patient data input, visit scheduling, a monitoring dashboard, and an automated reminder system. Implementation results showed that out of 16 patients who received reminder messages, 13 attended their scheduled visits, achieving a compliance rate of 81.3%. Evaluation revealed positive perceptions from both patients and healthcare staff regarding the application's usability and usefulness. These findings suggest that simple digital innovations such as TERKONTROL (Tertib Kontrol dan Respon Lanjut Pasien PTM & Lansia) can serve as effective tools for real-time patient monitoring, program reporting enhancement, and improved communication in primary healthcare settings.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), particularly hypertension and diabetes mellitus, remain major contributors to morbidity and mortality in Indonesia. Suboptimal patient engagement and poor adherence to therapy continue to hinder effective NCD management at the primary care level. This community-based intervention aimed to enhance patients’ knowledge, treatment adherence, and self-management through the use of a print-based educational tool, the SEHATI book. The program was implemented over a one-week period at Tanjung Karang Primary Health Center, Mataram City, involving 17 participants, including healthcare providers, community health cadres, and patients with hypertension and diabetes. The intervention consisted of group education sessions, simulation activities, cadre-led home visits, and pre- and post-intervention assessments. The results demonstrated a substantial improvement in participants’ knowledge, increasing from 52% to 89%, and medication adherence, rising from 61% to 90%. Qualitative findings indicated that the SEHATI book facilitated self-monitoring practices and enhanced patient motivation. Additionally, health cadres reported that the tool strengthened their capacity as community educators. This community-based approach, particularly through the active involvement of health cadres, proved effective in promoting patient engagement, especially in settings with limited access to digital health resources. The intervention is consistent with the Health Belief Model, as it enhances perceived benefits and self-efficacy among patients. Overall, the SEHATI book represents a practical, scalable, and contextually appropriate educational strategy for sustainable NCD management in primary healthcare settings.

Abstract

The Professional Nursing Care Model (PNCM) using the primary method emphasizes patient-centered care by assigning one primary nurse with full responsibility for managing comprehensive nursing services throughout a patient’s hospitalization. However, its implementation in inpatient units has not been fully optimal, as reflected in issues related to continuity of care, unclear role distribution, and the absence of standardized operational guidelines. This community service initiative aimed to optimize the implementation of the PNCM–Primary Method to enhance the quality of nursing services in inpatient settings. The program was conducted through several stages, including situational analysis, development and implementation of standardized operational procedures (SOPs), structured role assignment for primary nurses, and continuous training and mentoring. Evaluation methods included direct observation, feedback from nursing staff, and audits of nursing documentation. The results indicated notable improvements in the continuity and coordination of care, increased accuracy and completeness of nursing documentation, and higher patient satisfaction levels. Nurses also demonstrated improved understanding of their roles, stronger accountability, and more effective communication within interprofessional teams. Additionally, the establishment of clear guidelines supported consistency in care delivery. In conclusion, optimizing the PNCM–Primary Method effectively improved the quality of nursing services, strengthened professional responsibility, and promoted a more patient-centered approach. This model is recommended for sustained implementation across inpatient units as part of ongoing quality improvement and accreditation readiness efforts.
