Abstract

Healthcare professionalism is a fundamental foundation in improving service quality and patient safety in hospitals. This study aimed to analyze the influence of skills, responsibility, ethics, and communication on the professionalism of healthcare workers in the Pediatric Inpatient Unit of Lahat Regional General Hospital, Lahat Regency, South Sumatra, in 2025. This research employed an analytic quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 82 healthcare workers, with a sample of 68 respondents selected using stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed through univariate, bivariate (Chi-Square test), and multivariate (multiple logistic regression) analyses.The results showed that the majority of respondents were categorized as professional (70.6%). Bivariate analysis indicated that skills (p = 0.001), responsibility (p = 0.000), ethics (p = 0.000), and communication (p = 0.018) had a significant influence on professionalism. Multivariate analysis revealed that ethics was the most dominant variable affecting professionalism (OR = 7.25; p = 0.004), followed by responsibility (OR = 5.59; p = 0.009) and skills (OR = 4.26; p = 0.021), while communication was not statistically significant after being controlled with other variables (p = 0.078).In conclusion, ethics, responsibility, and skills are the main factors influencing healthcare professionalism. Enhancing professional ethics training, strengthening responsibility, and continuously developing clinical skills are necessary to improve the quality of healthcare services at Lahat Regional General Hospital.

Health promotion is believed to improve appropriate Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices. Objective: To analyze the influence of health promotion on IYCF behavior among mothers of toddlers in the working area of Lubuk Pakam Health Center. Research Methods: This was a quantitative analytic study with a cross-sectional design. A total of 120 mothers with children aged 6–24 months were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Chi-square tests. Results: About 70% of respondents had received health promotion, mainly through Posyandu (60.7%). Most mothers (62.5%) demonstrated good IYCF practices. A significant relationship was found between health promotion and IYCF behavior (p=0.0001). Conclusion: Health promotion significantly influences improved IYCF practices. Strengthening community-based health promotion, improving maternal nutrition literacy, and optimizing primary health care services are crucial for enhancing IYCF practices and reducing stunting rates.

Abstract

Microplastics and the extensive use of single-use plastics have become growing environmental issues that threaten human health and ecosystem sustainability. Limited environmental literacy among adolescents contributes to the continued high consumption of single-use plastics in school settings, highlighting the need for effective environmental education programs. This community service activity aimed to improve students’ environmental literacy regarding the dangers of microplastics and the importance of reducing single-use plastic use through an environmentally friendly school program at Al-Razi Sinar Harapan Vocational High School, Medan. The program involved 58 students and was implemented through interactive educational sessions, group discussions, simple demonstrations on plastic pollution, and campaigns promoting the use of reusable tumblers and food containers. Evaluation was conducted through participatory observation and assessment of students’ responses during discussions and question-and-answer sessions. The results indicated that participants were able to explain the concept of microplastics, identify common sources of plastic pollution within the school environment, and propose practical alternatives to reduce single-use plastic consumption, including the use of reusable containers, tumblers, and cloth bags. Increased participation during discussions, improved ability to answer questions related to the educational materials, and students’ expressed commitment to adopting environmentally friendly practices served as indicators of enhanced understanding and environmental awareness following the program. The activity also received positive feedback from teachers and school administrators and contributed to fostering a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable school environment.
