Abstract

Purpose: To determine the impact of therapy, psychosocial adjustments, and assistance received by breast cancer patients in the Sapkandara Movement community in Medan. Research Methodology: This type of research is qualitative with a case study approach to 4 breast cancer patients who are members of the Sapkandara Results: The results showed that patients with breast cancer experienced significant physical and psychological changes after therapy, including fatigue, hair loss, stress, and emotional instability. Socially, patients tend to withdraw from their environment. Psychosocial adjustment is influenced by patients' knowledge of the disease and family support. There are three types of assistance: existential, functional, and professional; however, only existential support from the family is effective. The Sapkandara Community provides comprehensive support, including information, hospital assistance, and moral and emotional support. Conclusions: Holistic support is crucial for patients with breast cancer, integrating family, social workers, and health professionals. The Sapkandara community plays a vital role in empowering patients and supporting psychosocial adjustment. Limitations: This study was limited the scope of research to patients with breast cancer who were undergoing treatment, support therapy, and were members of the Sapkandara. Contribution: This study contributes to social welfare knowledge by emphasizing the role of community-based support and social work in health settings. This study provides practical insights for policymakers, health institutions, and NGOs to strengthen psychosocial services for cancer patients.

Abstract

Purpose: To determine the motives of perpetrators of sexual violence against children in the immediate environment and how the modus operandi is carried out by the perpetrators. Research Methodology: This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study method involving five perpetrators of child sexual violence detained at the Class I Special Institution for Children (LPKA) in Medan. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation to uncover the underlying motives and behavioral patterns. Results: The results of the study indicate that there is a superior position and interior between the perpetrator and the victim, where the perpetrator feels more powerful than the victim, triggering the occurrence of sexual violence. The existence of motives in the past (because motive), such as having a bad experience in the past that causes a sense of resentment, and all informants lacking early socialization from their families in the past, especially in understanding religion. Motives in the present (in order to motive), namely reasons delivered by the perpetrator, such as miscommunication. Conclusions: This study concludes that sexual violence is not merely a result of individual deviance but is also shaped by weak social control, poor family communication, and negative peer environments. The opportunities and accessibility of pornographic content further exacerbate these behaviors. Limitations: This study focused only on five perpetrators in one institution, without incorporating victims’ perspectives or broader socioeconomic contexts, limiting generalizability. Contribution: This research enriches sociological discourse on social welfare and child protection, offering insights for families, communities, and policymakers to strengthen preventive measures, social control, and rehabilitation programs.
