Abstract

Stunting is a global public health issue that affects physical growth, mental development, and the quality of human resources. In Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting decreased from 30.8% in 2018 to 19.8% in 2024, yet it remains an important concern. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between sociodemographic characteristics and maternal behavior with the incidence of stunting among children under five in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Rappang, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. This study used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design involving 96 mothers of toddlers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square test with SPSS software. The results showed that maternal knowledge (p=0.018), family economic status (p=0.030), early initiation of breastfeeding (EIBF) (p=0.001), and parenting patterns (p=0.001) had significant relationships with stunting among children under five. Respondents with better knowledge, higher family economic status, supportive EIBF practices, and good parenting patterns tended to have a higher proportion of non-stunted children. Parenting patterns and EIBF showed stronger associations compared to other variables. It can be concluded that maternal knowledge, family economic status, early initiation of breastfeeding, and parenting patterns are significantly associated with stunting among children under five.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the persistence of problems in BPJS patient registration services, such as long queues, unclear procedures, and suboptimal staff communication. These conditions have the potential to reduce service quality and patient satisfaction. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the quality of BPJS patient registration services at Baranti Public Health Center, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 99 respondents determined using the Slovin formula from a total population of 8,701 patients. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and observation. Independent variables included facilities and infrastructure, staff attitudes and communication, and service procedures, while the dependent variable was service quality. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that facilities and infrastructure had a significant relationship with service quality (p < 0.001), service procedures had a significant relationship with service quality (p < 0.001), and staff attitudes and communication also had a significant relationship with the quality of BPJS patient registration services (p < 0.001). The most dominant factor influencing service quality was staff attitudes and communication. It can be concluded that improving service quality can be achieved through improving facilities, enhancing staff competencies, and simplifying service procedures.

Abstract

Health promotion plays an important role in improving public health through the delivery of planned and sustainable health information. As a primary healthcare facility, community health centers (Puskesmas) have a strategic role in implementing health promotion media policies. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of health promotion media policies at Rappang Public Health Center, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, based on Warwick’s policy implementation theory, which includes organizational capability, support, information, and resource allocation. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using thematic analysis with the assistance of NVivo 12 Plus software. The results showed that the implementation of health promotion media policies has generally been carried out well. Organizational capability was reflected in program planning and implementation based on activity targets, although specific standard operating procedures were not yet available. Support from leadership, adequate facilities, and cross-sector collaboration contributed to program implementation. Health information was disseminated through both printed and digital media, while resource allocation remained constrained by limited personnel and multiple responsibilities among health promotion officers. The study concludes that the implementation of health promotion media policies at Rappang Public Health Center has been effective; however, improvements in standard operating procedures and human resource capacity are needed to enhance program effectiveness.
