Abstract

Work stress is a state of tension that arises due to an imbalance between physical and psychological demands. Factors contributing to work stress include both job-related and individual factors. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with the risk of work stress among crew members of the Kelud Ship at Belawan Port in 2025. The study used a descriptive analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted from July 2024 to March 2025. The sampling technique used was accidental sampling, involving 50 crew members of the Kelud Ship at Belawan Port. The results showed significant relationships between age (p=0.035), physical work environment (p=0.001), workload (p=0.005), salary or wages (p=0.001), and interpersonal relationships (p=0.000) with the risk of work stress. The most dominant factor influencing work stress risk was workload. Therefore, it is recommended that the management of the Kelud Ship organize crew activities more efficiently, manage working and rest times appropriately to prevent fatigue, implement fair task rotations to avoid monotony, and maintain a balanced workload. Additionally, fostering open communication between the crew, captain, and management is essential to reduce misunderstandings and create a more harmonious working environment that promotes mutual support among crew members.

Abstract

The aging process results in muscle weakness, physical decline, and various degenerative diseases. These factors significantly affect the quality of life of the elderly, as they reduce independence and force them to rely on others for assistance. This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting the quality of life of the elderly in the working area of the Medan Denai Public Health Center in 2025. A quantitative research approach with a descriptive correlational design was used. The research was conducted from July 2024 to January 2025 at the Medan Denai Health Center. The sample consisted of 143 elderly individuals selected through accidental sampling, specifically those who visited the health center for treatment or consultation. The results showed a significant relationship between quality of life and several variables: gender (p = 0.001), marital status (p = 0.000), income (p = 0.005), stress (p = 0.005), social interaction (p = 0.007), and family support (p = 0.001). The most dominant factor influencing the quality of life was family support. Therefore, it is recommended that the elderly receive sufficient support to remain active and independent in their daily activities. Social interaction with peers should be encouraged to prevent loneliness, which could lead to stress. Furthermore, providing educational support and involving retired or non-working elderly in light, non-competitive, and deadline-free tasks can enhance their sense of productivity and usefulness within the family. Health centers are encouraged to continue supporting the elderly and to conduct family education programs to promote independence and activity among elderly individuals in their daily routines

Abstract

Malaria transmission occurs in tropical countries. Malaria cases continue to be a widespread global health issue in nearly all parts of the world. Malaria prevention can be achieved by changing public perceptions about the dangers of malaria infection through behavioral approaches, one of which is the Health Belief Model (HBM). The purpose of this study is to analyze factors associated with malaria prevention actions based on the Health Belief Model in the working area of the Pagurawan Health Center, Medang Deras District, Batubara Regency, in 2025. This research is descriptive-analytic with a cross-sectional study design. The study was conducted in the working area of the Pagurawan Health Center, Medang Deras District, Batubara Regency, from July 2024 to February 2025. The sample size was 100 respondents, selected through proportional sampling. The results of the study revealed significant relationships with perceived susceptibility (p value 0.000), perceived severity (p value 0.023), perceived benefits (p value 0.002), perceived barriers (p value 0.000), and cues to action (p value 0.000). The most dominant variable was cues to action with an Exp(B) of 14.285.

Abstract

Indonesia sends hundreds of thousands of Hajj pilgrims every year. Many pilgrims depart at an elderly age due to limited quotas and long waiting periods. This situation contributes to the recurrence of health problems among Hajj pilgrims. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors associated with morbidity among Hajj pilgrims from Medan City in 2024. This research employed a descriptive-analytic approach with a cross-sectional study design. The study was conducted at the Health Quarantine Office of North Sumatra Province from August 2024 to February 2025. The results showed significant associations between age (p-value 0.000), medical history (p-value 0.000), istithaah (physical/medical eligibility) status (p-value 0.001), and health risk status (p-value 0.000) with morbidity among Hajj pilgrims in Medan City. The most dominant factor influencing morbidity was high-risk health status, with an Exp(B) value of 19.745 and a p-value of 0.000. It is recommended that the Ministry of Religious Affairs establish a maximum age limit for Hajj registration, taking into account the waiting period until the Hajj is performed, to help ensure pilgrims are not too old to perform the pilgrimage. Additionally, it is advised that the Medan City Port Health Office (BKK) be more proactive and responsive in managing high-risk prospective pilgrims by providing training for healthcare workers.
