Abstract

This research aims to explain the phenomenon of traditional treatment for broken bones carried out by the Serui Tribe in Manokwari Regency, West Papua. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design through in-depth interviews with 10 informants consisting of traditional healers, patients, traditional leaders and health workers. The results of the research show that the traditional treatment for bone fractures in the Serui Tribe uses the main ingredients of the Callisia fragrans plant (Purple Pearl Grass) and pure coconut oil (VCO) which are applied to the fracture area through dressing and bandaging. There are restrictions in the treatment process in the form of a prohibition on consuming hot food and drinks. People choose traditional medicine because of cultural beliefs, more affordable costs, easier access, and fast healing experiences. The dynamics of treatment choices in society shows a transition from medical to traditional treatment in some cases that do not show progress with medical methods. The conclusion of this study reveals that the Serui Tribe's traditional bone fracture treatment practices are still popular with the public even though medical services are available, and there is potential to integrate the two treatment systems for optimal results.

The preparation of plans and the fulfillment of human resource needs by the Health Office is carried out through a special human resources application. The strategy implemented to meet the needs of health human resources is to carry out periodic monitoring and evaluation activities.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) program at the Jayapura Regency Health Center. The research uses a qualitative case study design. The number of informants was 9 people who were selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by in-depth interviews and triangulation of data and sources. The data analysis techniques used include data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions drawn. The results of the study show that the implementation of the NCD is still not optimal. Some of the main obstacles identified include the limited number of health workers, a small allocation of funds, and low public awareness in participating in NCD Posbindu activities. The available facilities are not yet able to reach all villages. In addition, the implementation process is still carried out manually, has not been well structured, and monitoring activities are not carried out regularly. The scope of NCD Posbindu services has not reached the national target and the prevalence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus cases is still high, so the goal of reducing the number of NCD has not been achieved.

Abstract

This study explores in depth the understanding and role of health students in stunting prevention in Nabire District, Central Papua, which has a stunting prevalence of 22.2%, exceeding the national average. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, research data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. Data analysis used source triangulation. The results indicate that health students have a fairly comprehensive understanding of stunting. Their role in stunting prevention is manifested through community education activities, counseling for pregnant women and infants, nutrition counseling, demonstrations of nutritious food preparation, and participation in fieldwork programs. Challenges faced by students include low self-confidence, uncooperative community responses, difficulty accessing stunting data, and limited awareness of the importance of effective communication. Health students have great potential as agents of change in stunting prevention, provided they receive support, including closer collaboration between educational institutions, the government, and the community to create a stunting prevention ecosystem.
