Abstract

ABSTRACT Hemodialysis is dialysis therapy as a kidney replacement in patients with CKD. One of the problems that cause hemodialysis failure is the problem of compliance in patients with chronic kidney failure who undergo hemodialysis therapy. Therefore, the role of health workers is very much needed in providing understanding to patients regarding discharge planning in order to get better care to achieve the patient's quality of life. If the patient is not disciplined in maintaining his life by obediently carrying out hemodialysis therapy according to the doctor's recommendations, shortness of breath, edema, ascites will occur and will cause many long-term complications which will ultimately increase mortality. With quality instructions from nurses or a good understanding of discharge planning, it is hoped that it can improve the discipline of CKD patients in carrying out hemodialysis therapy. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between the contribution of educators by nurses in discharge planning and the level of discipline of chronic kidney failure patients who undergo regular hemodialysis at RSU IPI Medan. This type of quantitative research with a correlation research design. Data collection used was an educator contribution questionnaire by nurses in discharge planning which consisted of 21 questions. The population in this study was all CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy, totaling 52 people. With an accidental sampling technique. The research results were tested using the Chi-Square test with a (p) value of <0.001 <0.05, meaning that there is a relationship between the provision of discharge planning and the level of discipline of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy, so it is hoped that all health workers will provide clear information to patients regarding the importance of carrying out hemodialysis therapy so that the patient's quality of life is more optimal.

Dairi Regency in North Sumatra experiences repeated tornadoes, yet their knowledge and preparedness remain low. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of preparedness education and training in improving the knowledge and skills of older adults in dealing with tornadoes. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-posttest approach was conducted with 50 elderly participants aged 48–81 years. The intervention included education through lectures, discussions, and question-and-answer sessions, as well as disaster preparedness simulations. Data were collected using structured questionnaires before and after the intervention and then analyzed descriptively and comparatively. Before the intervention, 72% of participants were unaware of the dangers of tornadoes, and 50% did not know what to do in the event of a disaster. After the intervention, 90% of participants had good knowledge about tornadoes, and 58% were able to explain appropriate preparedness steps, including closing doors/windows, turning off electricity and gas, preparing an emergency bag, and taking shelter in a safe place. Education and simulations significantly improve the knowledge and preparedness of older adults. Community-based approaches are effective in increasing the resilience of vulnerable groups in disaster-prone areas. Continuous training and integration with village programs are highly recommended. Keywords: Disaster Preparedness, Elderly, Tornado, Community Services, Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Education for early childhood is an effort to provide and provide guidance to help the physical and spiritual growth and development of children from birth to 6 years of age so that they are ready to enter the next stage of education. The quality of a child's future development is largely determined by the stimulation they receive from an early age. Providing educational stimulation is very important, because 80% of brain growth develops at an early age. Brain exercises are used as a method to improve cognitive abilities or memory and concentration in children. This research aims to determine the effect of brain exercises in improving cognitive function and preparedness to deal with concentration disorders in students at Pembina Kindergarten, Dairi Regency. The study design in this research is quasi experimental with one group pre test and post test design. Determining the sample for this study used the G-Power application version 3.1.9.7 with T-test, one tail, effect size 0.85, alpha error 0.05, and power 0.80, so a minimum of 16 plus a possibility of error of 10% are needed, so the respondents needed in this study totaling 18 respondents. Brain exercise is carried out 3 (three) times a week for a week and evaluation is carried out on the seventh day. The results of this study used bivariate analysis, namely the Wilcoxon statistical test to identify cognitive function and preparedness for facing concentration problems before and after brain exercise. The results of this study show that there are differences in cognitive function and preparedness for concentration disorders between before and after brain exercise with a P value of 0.002 and a P value of 0.001. This shows that there is a statistically significant difference in cognitive function and preparedness for dealing with concentration problems before and after being given the intervention with a P value <0.05. Conclusion: Brain exercise training has an effect on cognitive function and preparedness for facing concentration problems in children 4-5 years old in Kindergarten Pembina, Dairi Regency.
