Abstract

School Health Efforts are an important prospect in efforts to prevent disease and improve children's health. This study aims to describe the implementation of UKS, namely the implementation of the three main UKS programs, the role of teachers, and infrastructure. This research is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and documentation with 10 informants. The results showed that the types of UKS activities included health education, health services, and fostering a healthy school environment. UKS activities are not routinely carried out and experience problems in their implementation. The teacher's role in UKS activities includes providing information, assessing, examining, and guiding students to clean independently. Regarding the currently available infrastructure, it is still limited and does not meet the minimum level of UKS services improvement of UKS infrastructure facilities, improvement of teacher knowledge, and skills in UKS management is very much needed.

Abstract

Introduction Delayed treatment seeking among patients with diabetes mellitus remains a major challenge to effective disease management and complication prevention. Aim This study explored patients’ perceptions of diabetes mellitus and factors contributing to treatment delay using the Common-Sense Model. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using deductive thematic analysis. Result Findings revealed limited understanding of the causes, symptoms, and complications of diabetes mellitus. Early symptoms were often perceived as normal or non-serious, reducing timely healthcare seeking. Participants commonly believed the disease could be managed through dietary modification and traditional remedies, often prioritizing these approaches over medical treatment. Delayed treatment seeking was further influenced by low perceived severity and environmental factors. Conclusion Patients delaying treatment hold an illness cognition defined by symptom normalization, a preference for traditional management, and a minimized perception of disease seriousness, highlighting the need for targeted health education to promote timely care.
