Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health concern in Indonesia, particularly in Biak Regency, where socio-cultural factors and infant feeding practices influence child growth. This study examined the association between exclusive breastfeeding and socio-cultural support with stunting among children aged 25–59 months in Biak Regency. A cross-sectional analytic design was applied to 35 toddlers from the Ridge Public Health Center and Integrated Services Post. Data were collected via anthropometric measurements and structured questionnaires and analyzed using Fisher’s Exact Test and binary logistic regression. Stunting prevalence was 65.7%, and only 42.9% of children had received exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life. In bivariate analysis, none of the exclusively breastfed children and none of those with adequate socio-cultural support were stunted (both p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, lack of exclusive breastfeeding (No vs Yes) was associated with higher odds of stunting (AOR = 18.0; 95% CI: 2.90–111.60; p < 0.001), and inadequate socio-cultural support (Inadequate vs Adequate) similarly increased the odds (AOR = 18.0; 95% CI: 2.90–111.60; p < 0.001). These results indicate that exclusive breastfeeding and supportive socio-cultural environments are strongly protective against stunting. Given the small sample and wide confidence intervals, findings should be interpreted with caution but highlight the need for culturally sensitive strategies that promote exclusive breastfeeding and address socio-cultural barriers during the first 1,000 days of life.

Abstract

Based on anemia data obtained from the results of medical records at the Lepo-lepo Health Center in Kendari, 128 (11.07%) pregnant women experienced anemia from 1,156 patients who checked their pregnancy in 2013, there were 112 (6.68%) pregnant women who experienced anemia from 1,675 patients checked their pregnancy, and in 2014 was 97 (5.48%) pregnant women had anemia from 1,768 patients who checked their pregnancy. This study aimed to analyze the sociocultural relations and family support with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women. The research method used was analytic observational with a Cross-Sectional Study approach. The total sample was 33 pregnant women with a purposive sampling technique. The study found that most pregnant women still experienced anemia due to a lack of family support. The amount of family support a mother receives affects the anemia of pregnant women. This effect can interfere with the psychological health of pregnant women, such as experiencing stress. For the mother to feel calm and at ease during pregnancy, it is hoped that the pregnant woman's family can provide full support so that there is a sociocultural relationship and family support with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women with each value ρ <α (0.05). It can be concluded that there is a relationship between sociocultural and family support with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women. As a recommendation in research to improve sociocultural relationships and family support with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women

Abstract

Introduction: Medication counseling is an essential component of patient-centered pharmaceutical care, contributing to medication safety, adherence, and patient satisfaction. In hospital pharmacy settings, counseling practices are often influenced by workload and service constraints, resulting in variability in counseling frequency. Understanding how patients perceive and interpret the frequency of medication counseling is therefore important for improving the quality of pharmacy services. This study aimed to explore patients’ perceptions of the frequency of medication counseling provided by pharmacists and to examine its role in shaping patient satisfaction within a hospital pharmacy setting. Research Methodology: A qualitative case study design was employed at the pharmacy installation of a regional general hospital in Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with patients, pharmacists, and supporting staff, complemented by non-participant observations and document review. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed thematically through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing, with credibility ensured through triangulation of sources and techniques. Results: The findings revealed that medication counseling frequency was delivered inconsistently and varied according to workload, patient volume, and medication characteristics. Patients perceived frequent counseling as a sign of professional care that enhanced understanding, confidence, and trust in pharmacists. Consistent counseling contributed positively to patient satisfaction, whereas limited counseling led to uncertainty in medication use. Organizational factors, such as staffing limitations and service flow, were identified as key constraints on counseling practices. Conclusion: Medication counseling frequency is a meaningful experiential factor that shapes patient satisfaction and the quality of pharmacist-patient interactions. Strengthening counseling consistency through organizational support and standardized practices may improve patient-centered pharmaceutical care in hospital settings.

Abstract

Introduction: HIV and AIDS are known to have become an emergency problem around the world, where infection transmission, morbidity rates, and mortality rates are still high. The existence of the HIV/AIDS epidemic is one of the scary scourges in the community because of its unexpected transmission by HIV due to human behavior. Objective: This study aims to analyze social determinants with quality of life in people with HIV/AIDS in the Voluntary Counseling and Testing Clinic. Methods: This study is an analytical study using a cross-sectional study research design. The population in this study is all HIV/AIDS patients domiciled in Kendari City. The sample consisted of 177 respondents, determined by simple random sampling. Data analysis uses the chi-square test and the multiple logistics test. Result: The results of the study showed that there was a stigma relationship with Odhiv's quality of life at the VCT Clinic of Kendari City Hospital (p = 0.000) and there was a relationship between social support and Odhiv's quality of life at the VCT Clinic of Kendari City Hospital (p = 0.000). The variable that has the greatest influence on the quality of life of ODHIV is the social support variable with an OR of 0.353. Conclusion: The variable that has the greatest influence on the quality of life of People with HIV/AIDS (ODHIV) is social support. Social support has proven to be a very significant factor in improving the quality of life of people living with HIV. Individuals with strong social support, whether from family, friends, or the community, tend to have a better quality of life than those who receive less social support. Social support plays a role in helping people with HIV cope with stigma, reduce psychological pressure, and provide a sense of security and comfort that can have a positive impact on their physical and mental well-being.

Abstract

Introduction: The VCT Clinic service program is one of the early detection efforts to find out whether someone has been infected with HIV or not through Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT). Risky sexual behavior with HIV/AIDS is the MSM group. This study aimed to determine the factors that influence the utilization of VCT services in the MSM group. Research Methodology: This study is a type of quantitative research with an approach using a cross-sectional study design. The population in this study were all HIV/AIDS sufferers who were undergoing ARV treatment at the Kendari City Hospital in 2023, totaling 349 people. Data were analyzed using SPSS to determine the frequency distribution and the chi-square statistical test to determine the variables' relationship. Result: The results showed a relationship between knowledge and the utilization of VCT clinics by the MSM group with a closeness level of 0.517, which indicated a moderate closeness of the relationship. There was a relationship between actions and the utilization of VCT clinics by the MSM group with a closeness level of 0.343, which indicated a weak closeness of the relationship. There is a relationship between family support and the use of VCT clinics by the MSM group, with a closeness level of 0.262, indicating a weak closeness of the relationship. There is a relationship between social support and the use of VCT clinics by the MSM group, with a closeness level of 0.300, indicating a weak closeness of the relationship. Conclusion: The analysis results show a significance value of <0.05, meaning there is a relationship between knowledge, attitudes, actions, social support, and family support with the use of VCT clinic services. Suggestions: It is hoped that the Kendari City Health Office will make policies in carrying out HIV/AIDS prevention activities, especially for the MSM group, by maximizing socialization about HIV/AIDS in hotspots where the group carries out activities. In addition, it is coordinating with the Education Office to provide education and socialization to students and the community to limit and avoid factors that cause risky sexual behavior.

Abstract

Introduction: Childhood diarrhea remains a major public health challenge in low- and middle-income countries despite the widespread implementation of health promotion initiatives through primary healthcare services. While previous studies have largely evaluated intervention effectiveness using quantitative indicators, there is limited evidence on how community-based health promotion programs are implemented in routine primary healthcare settings. This study aimed to explore the implementation of community-based health promotion programs to prevent childhood diarrhoea from multiple stakeholders' perspectives. Research Methodology: A qualitative descriptive study with an interpretive approach was conducted between January and March 2026 in the working area of Bontomangape Primary Health Center, Takalar Regency, Indonesia. Twenty-five purposively selected informants, including healthcare managers, health promotion officers, healthcare professionals, community health volunteers, and mothers of children under five years, participated in semi-structured in-depth interviews. Non-participant observations and document reviews were used to strengthen data triangulation. Data were analyzed using Braun and Clarke's six-phase Reflexive Thematic Analysis supported by NVivo Release 14. Trustworthiness was established through credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. Results: Four interconnected themes emerged: implementation of community-based health promotion activities, perceived program benefits, barriers to implementation, and strategies for program strengthening. Participants reported that health education, home visits, and Posyandu activities improved caregivers' knowledge and preventive practices. However, workforce shortages, limited educational resources, and inconsistent community participation constrained program sustainability. Data saturation was achieved after the twenty-third interview and confirmed through two additional interviews. Conclusion: Community-based health promotion is an essential component of childhood diarrhoea prevention but requires stronger organisational capacity, sustained community engagement, and intersectoral collaboration to maximise its effectiveness. Strengthening primary healthcare systems through context-sensitive, community-centred health promotion strategies may improve program sustainability and help reduce the burden of preventable childhood diarrhoea

Abstract

Human resources (HR) constitute a key determinant in the delivery of healthcare services at public health centers. Challenges such as high workloads, limited staffing, and low levels of motivation may adversely affect job satisfaction and HR performance. One psychological factor that plays a crucial role is work engagement, defined as an individual’s positive, fulfilling involvement in their work. This study aims to analyze the relationship between work engagement, job satisfaction, and HR performance at BLUD UPTD Salotungo Public Health Center, Soppeng Regency. The study employed a quantitative analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The population and sample comprised all health and non-health personnel, totaling 101 employees, selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES), the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), and performance assessments based on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression tests. The results indicate that work engagement has a positive and significant relationship with both job satisfaction and HR performance. Job satisfaction also shows a stronger positive association with HR performance and functions as a mediating variable in the relationship between work engagement and performance. The findings confirm that simultaneous improvements in work engagement and job satisfaction contribute to enhanced HR performance. Accordingly, public health center management should develop human resource policies oriented toward improving employees’ psychological well-being and job satisfaction in order to support sustainable healthcare service quality.
