Abstract

This study investigated breastfeeding self-efficacy (BSE) among mothers attending the Dahlia Health Center in Makassar City, Indonesia, where exclusive breastfeeding rates were reported at 73.97% in 2023. Guided by Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy, a cross-sectional design was employed to simultaneously assess various factors influencing BSE. The targeted participants included 38 breastfeeding mothers, selected based on specific criteria. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, focusing on mothers’ confidence levels regarding breastfeeding. Trained enumerators conducted direct interviews ensuring informed consent. Statistical analysis, utilizing methods such as linear regression and correlation, revealed that 76.3% of respondents exhibited good BSE. Significant relationships were identified between key factors: breastfeeding experience (p = 0.043), observation of others (p = 0.000), and verbal persuasion (p = 0.01). Additionally, the mother's physical and emotional health also significantly influenced BSE (p = 0.00). The findings highlight the importance of positive experiences, social support, and maternal health in enhancing confidence in breastfeeding. Recommendations include developing training programs for health workers aimed at providing emotional support and involving family members in delivering consistent verbal encouragement to breastfeeding mothers. This approach may improve BSE and ultimately increase exclusive breastfeeding rates in the region.

Abstract

Women’s reproductive health is a particularly vulnerable aspect of well-being in disaster situations, making maternal preparedness essential for minimizing health risks. This study aims to analyze the relationship between mothers’ knowledge and attitudes toward reproductive health preparedness in disaster situations in East Polongbangkeng District, Takalar Regency, 2026. A quantitative observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. A total of 117 mothers were recruited as respondents based on established inclusion criteria. Data were collected using validated and reliable questionnaires and analyzed through univariate and bivariate analyses using the chi-square test at a significance level of α = 0.05. Results showed that the majority of respondents had good knowledge (82.1%), good attitudes (94.0%), and good preparedness (78.6%). Statistically significant associations were found between mothers’ knowledge and reproductive health preparedness (p = 0.003), and between mothers’ attitudes and reproductive health preparedness (p = 0.037). It is concluded that better maternal knowledge and attitudes are associated with better reproductive health preparedness in disaster situations. Health centers and healthcare workers are recommended to strengthen community-based reproductive health preparedness education and promotion in disaster-prone areas.

Abstract

Flood disasters remain one of the most frequently occurring natural disasters in Indonesia, with Makassar City and Batua Village experiencing recurring inundation almost every year. Low levels of community knowledge and the absence of structured disaster preparedness training are key factors worsening disaster impacts. This community service program aimed to strengthen community-based disaster preparedness and response capabilities in Batua Village through participatory training involving BPBD Makassar, BMKG, PMI, and the Batua Community Health Center. Methods included workshops, lectures, simulations, and the establishment of a Village Disaster Response Team (KESTANA) comprising cadres, neighborhood leaders, youth, and health workers. Post-monitoring revealed positive outcomes: communities improved knowledge of flood prevention, disaster impact mitigation, early warning access, coordination channels, and evacuation data management. Overall, 78% of participants expressed positive responses. The program demonstrates that participatory, multi-stakeholder training effectively builds grassroots disaster resilience. Follow-up simulations and continuous capacity building are strongly recommended
