Abstract

HIV/AIDS remains a serious health problem, not only from a medical perspective but also socially, especially related to stigma in society. Adolescents, as a productive age group, often have limited and incorrect knowledge about HIV/AIDS, which can lead to negative stigma toward people living with HIV/AIDS. This community service activity aimed to improve adolescents' knowledge and reduce stigma through health education at Harapan Health Center. The method used was health education with a pretest-posttest approach involving 24 adolescents. The materials included the definition of HIV/AIDS, modes of transmission, prevention, and the impact of stigma. The results showed an increase in participants' knowledge after the education, as indicated by the comparison of pretest and posttest scores. In addition, participants showed a more positive attitude toward people living with HIV/AIDS. In conclusion, health education is effective in improving knowledge and reducing stigma among adolescents regarding HIV/AIDS.

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period that is vulnerable to risky behavior, including promiscuous sex. Lack of knowledge about HIV/AIDS can increase the risk of unsafe sexual behavior, which can potentially lead to HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and promiscuous sexual behavior in adolescents. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 61 students majoring in Nursing Assistant at SMK YPKP, selected using an accidental sampling technique. The research instruments consisted of an HIV/AIDS knowledge questionnaire and a Guttman scale questionnaire on promiscuity behavior. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that most respondents had sufficient knowledge about HIV/AIDS (78.7%) and negative promiscuity behavior (54.1%). Statistical tests showed a significant relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and promiscuity behavior in adolescents (p-value = 0.000). All respondents with good knowledge (21.3 %) had positive promiscuity behavior. There is a significant relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and adolescent sexual behavior. Good knowledge plays a crucial role in developing positive and safe sexual behavior.

Abstract

Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA) are plants with medicinal properties and are cultivated in home gardens as a form of community self-reliance in maintaining health and preventing disease. The lack of public knowledge regarding the types of TOGA, their processing methods, and their uses is a key reason for implementing this community service program. This activity aims to increase community knowledge and skills regarding the use of TOGA as a preventative measure against various common diseases. The program was implemented among 45 families in Suka Jaya Village through outreach, demonstrations, TOGA planting practices, and mentoring in the preparation of simple herbal concoctions. Evaluation was conducted using pre- and post-tests, practical observations, and interviews. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in community knowledge, from an average score of 52.6 to 88.4 after the education. Eighty-five percent of participants were able to practice TOGA planting, and 78% made simple concoctions such as warm ginger, tamarind turmeric, and lemongrass tea. The community considered the program very beneficial and wanted similar activities to continue regularly. This program can increase community awareness and self-reliance in maintaining health. The use of traditional medicinal plants (TOGA) is considered effective as a disease prevention measure and supports a healthy, natural, and affordable lifestyle. This initiative is recommended for implementation in other regions and further development through further training.

Abstract

HIV/AIDS is a public health issue that affects the physical, psychological, social, and environmental conditions of sufferers. Family support plays a crucial role in enhancing the adaptability and quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV). This study aims to analyze the relationship between family support and the quality of life of PLHIV at the Sentani Community Health Center. Objective to determine the relationship between family support and the quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS at the Sentani Community Health Center.  This study used a correlational design with a cross-sectional approach at Sentani Community Health Center, Jayapura Regency, from May to July 2024. The sample consisted of 69 people living with HIV (PLHIV) selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a family support questionnaire and the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF. The family support questionnaire was declared valid and reliable, with a Cronbach’s Alpha of 0.883, while the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF consisted of 31 items and was declared valid with an r-count > r-table (0.349). Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of α = 0.05.  The majority of respondents had high family support, numbering 54 individuals (78.3%), and a good quality of life, numbering 53 individuals (76.8%). Respondents with high family support and a good quality of life accounted for 51 individuals (73.9%), whereas respondents with low family support and a poor quality of life accounted for 13 individuals (18.8%). The Chi-Square test results yielded a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a significant relationship between family support and the quality of life of PLHIV.  Family support is significantly correlated with  the quality of life of PLHIV at the Sentani Community Health Center. The higher the family support received, the better the quality of life of PLHIV. Strengthening family-based interventions is necessary to sustainably improve the quality of life of PLHIV.

Abstract

Adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy is crucial for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) to suppress viral replication and prevent resistance. The spiritual dimension is often considered a source of internal strength, yet its relationship with medical adherence at the primary health center level remains under-researched. This study aims to analyze the relationship between spiritual needs and adherence  to antiretroviral (ARV) medication at the Sentani Health Center. This analytical quantitative study with a cross-sectional design involved 59 respondents selected via incidental sampling at the Sentani Public Health Center (October 2024–February 2025). The research instruments used in this study were the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire (SPNQ) and the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). The results of the validity and reliability tests indicated that both instruments were valid, reliable, and suitable for use in this study. Data were analyzed using the Kendall’s Tau-b correlation test.  The majority of respondents were aged 20-24 years (44.1%) and were female (50.8%). A total of 86.4% of respondents reported high spiritual needs, yet 93.2% exhibited low adherence to ARV medication. Statistical testing indicated no significant correlation between spiritual needs and ARV medication adherence (p = 0.416 > 0.05), with a very weak and negative relationship (r = -0.107). High spiritual needs do not directly guarantee adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) medication among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) at the Sentani Community Health Center. Adherence is a multifactorial phenomenon that is likely influenced more by psychosocial factors, family support, and distress tolerance.
