Abstract

Background: Women's involvement in decision-making related to health services has a significant impact on improving maternal and child health, as well as strengthening women's empowerment. In 2022, the Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) in Pasaman Barat District was 195 per 100,000 live births, ranking first among districts and cities in West Sumatra Province.Objective: This study aims to identify factors associated with women's physical independence in accessing maternal and child health (MCH) services.Methods: This is an analytical study using a cross-sectional design. The sample size was 106 participants.Results: 3.2% of respondents had low independence in utilizing MCH services. Residential area (p-value = 0.038; AOR = 0.321) and knowledge about MCH (p-value = 0.001; AOR = 7.015) were the dominant factors associated with women's physical independence in utilizing MCH services. Meanwhile, husband's education, number of family members, mother's occupation, age group, mother's education, husband's occupation, family income, and access to health facilities were confounding variables in this study.Conclusion: The low level of women's autonomy in utilizing KIA services is primarily influenced by the area of residence and the level of knowledge about KIA. Educational efforts, training of health workers, and cross-sectoral collaboration are needed to improve access and gender equality in health services.

Abstract

Sungai Pisang, located in the Bungus Teluk Kabung District, is a coastal area with approximately 2,116 residents, most of whom earn their livelihood as fishermen. The community faces interrelated nutritional and sanitation problems, primarily due to limited waste-management facilities. Household waste and fish-processing residues are commonly burned or buried, resulting in environmental pollution and increasing the risk of infectious diseases. These conditions negatively affect the community’s nutritional status, particularly among vulnerable groups such as children under five and pregnant women. This community service program aims to strengthen community capacity in improving nutrition and sanitation through a participatory empowerment approach. The activities were carried out through preparation, socialization, and intervention. These included official meetings with local authorities, health education sessions for housewives, mothers of young children, and community health volunteers, as well as a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to develop applicable waste-management solutions. The results showed an increase in community knowledge regarding balanced nutrition and family health. In addition, residents agreed to initiate organic-waste composting and reduce the use of single-use plastics. This program integrates nutrition interventions with environmentally based sanitation improvements, emphasizing that nutritional enhancement cannot be separated from local ecological conditions. Collaboration among local government, health workers, and the community is essential to creating a sustainable healthy environment that supports comprehensive improvements in nutritional status.

Abstract

According to a 2019 survey by United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), bullying occurs in children worldwide. Globally, more than 30 percent of students aged 13 to 15 regularly experience bullying. Bullying can cause anxiety and fear in adolescents, disrupt concentration in school, and encourage them to avoid the school environment. Bullying problems that occur in schools require preventive intervention. The goal is to prevent this bullying practice from continuing or escalating into more extreme actions. Interventions in the form of education and training are an initial effort to convey a message to adolescents, individuals, or groups about the dangers of bullying. Community service activities at Muhammadiyah 5 Junior High School in Padang City aimed to increase adolescents' knowledge of bullying prevention. The implementation consisted of four stages: problem analysis, preparation, implementation, and evaluation of activities. The average pretest knowledge level increased from 58.47 to 84.02 (posttest) after the education was provided to 72 students. This activity has been proven to increase students' and the school community's insight and understanding of bullying. For the program's sustainability, it is hoped that the school will be involved and committed to regular bullying eradication activities. A sustainable program will increase anti-bullying awareness in schools.

Abstract

Hemodialysis is a renal replacement therapy highly dependent on the availability of medical-grade water, stable electricity, and supporting technological systems. This dependency makes hemodialysis services vulnerable to disruption during disasters, particularly in earthquake- and flood-prone areas. Treatment interruption may increase the risk of serious complications and threaten patient safety. In this context, families play an essential role in maintaining therapy continuity; however, their perspectives in disaster mitigation remain underexplored. This study aimed to explore family expectations regarding the resilience of hemodialysis services in disaster situations. A qualitative exploratory approach with thematic analysis was employed. Primary informants consisted of two family members of hemodialysis patients, supported by source triangulation through interviews with one manager, one nurse, and two patients. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings identified four main themes: (1) expectations for clear and structured hospital preparedness systems, (2) the need for technical education and risk communication, (3) clarity of emergency referral systems and alternative service networks, and (4) comprehensive protection of patient safety. The results indicate that families expect a structured mitigation system that is well-communicated and actively involves them in pre-disaster simulations and education. This study highlights that the resilience of hemodialysis services in disaster situations depends not only on infrastructure and hospital management but also on empowering families as integral components of the healthcare resilience system. Integrating families into preparedness planning may strengthen therapy continuity and enhance patients’ sense of security during crises.
