Abstract

Malnutrition is a pressing global health issue affecting vulnerable communities, including children and elderly populations. This research aimed to identify the risk factors associated with malnutrition in these groups and explore the potential of complementary therapy in mitigating health crises caused by malnutrition. A comprehensive survey was conducted, collecting data from diverse vulnerable communities. The survey design included structured questionnaires, open-ended questions, and focus group discussions to gather quantitative and qualitative data. The findings revealed that food insecurity, limited access to healthcare, low socio-economic status, insufficient dietary diversity, and inadequate micronutrient intake were significant risk factors contributing to malnutrition. Moreover, participants expressed positive perspectives on the potential efficacy of complementary therapy in nutrition support and emphasized the importance of community engagement and integration with existing healthcare systems. The study concludes that evidence-based strategies and targeted interventions are crucial to address malnutrition and improve the health outcomes of vulnerable populations. The research findings contribute to a better understanding of malnutrition and lay the groundwork for sustainable solutions to mitigate health crises related to malnutrition.

Abstract

The aging global population necessitates tailored health services for the elderly. Complementary therapies, such as acupressure and exercise, have shown promise in addressing elderly health needs. Integrating these therapies with elderly schools, community centers offering tailored programs, presents a holistic healthcare approach. This research aims to assess elderly perceptions and potential benefits of integrating elderly schools and complementary therapies. It explores awareness levels, acceptance, implementation barriers, and perceived impacts on overall well-being. The study provides crucial evidence for policymakers and practitioners to enhance basic health services for the elderly. A descriptive survey method was employed, utilizing self-administered questionnaires. Closed-ended Likert scale questions gauged perceptions, while open-ended questions captured qualitative insights. The sample comprised individuals aged 60 and above, drawn from elderly school attendees and complementary therapy users. Survey results indicate positive perceptions toward integration, with approximately 85% of respondents expressing favorable views. Participants believe that combining educational programs with complementary therapies could enhance physical health (76%), mental health (68%), and stress management (82%). Open-ended responses provided nuanced insights, highlighting personal transformations and concerns related to cost and accessibility. The majority of respondents perceive the integration positively, supporting theoretical frameworks emphasizing benefits. Qualitative data enriches the understanding of participants' experiences. While acknowledging limitations, such as the cross-sectional nature and potential bias, this research provides valuable knowledge. It suggests that integrating elderly schools and complementary therapy holds promise in promoting holistic healthcare, contributing to healthy aging and improved quality of life for the elderly.
