Food service in hospitals is part of nutritional care that plays an important role in supporting the healing process of patients during treatment. The quality of food served to patients must not only meet nutritional standards, but also consider aspects of taste, hygiene, menu variety, food presentation, and timeliness of distribution. Patient satisfaction with food services is an important indicator in evaluating the overall quality of hospital services. Patients who are satisfied with the food provided tend to have a positive perception of the quality of hospital services and are more cooperative in undergoing treatment and hospital diets. This study aims to analyze the level of patient satisfaction with food services at Labuha Regional General Hospital in 2025. This study uses a quantitative design with an analytical survey approach. The sample in this study consisted of 89 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance level of α = 0.1. The results showed that most respondents were satisfied with the food service (56.2%). There was a significant relationship between patient satisfaction and food taste (p=0.000), food presentation (p=0.000), menu variety (p=0.000), food hygiene (p=0.000), cutlery hygiene (p=0.000), and timeliness of distribution (p=0.000). The conclusion of this study is that all factors studied have a significant relationship with patient satisfaction levels. Therefore, improving the quality of food service in hospitals is very important to support the healing process and overall patient satisfaction.

Data from Basic Health Research 2018 shows that approximately 32% of teenager girls in Indonesia experience anemia, primarily caused by iron deficiency. Furthermore, the 2022 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI) reported that breakfast habits among school aged children remain low and adequate physical activity has not yet become a routine practice in school environments. These conditions has an impact on decreased concentration in learning, academic achievement, and physical fitness, and in the long term can increase the risk of stunting in the next generation. Therefore, early intervention is urgently required. In response to this issue, the Indonesian government, through the Ministry of Health, initiated the Progressive Healthy Nutrition Action Program. This program integrates balanced nutrition education, the promotion of healthy breakfast habits, consumption of iron supplementation, and regular physical activity in schools. The purpose of community service is to improve female students’ knowledge of balanced nutrition and healthy lifestyles. The implementation activities included group exercise sessions, healthy breakfast activities, balanced nutrition counseling, and measurement of mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC). The method used was pre-posttest evaluation and analyzed using paired t-test analysis. The results demonstrated a positive impact on participants’ knowledge levels. The average knowledge score increased from 4.23 to 7.03 after the intervention, with a mean difference of 2.797. In addition, the average MUAC of participants was 22.194 cm, indicating chronic energy deficiency status. These findings suggest that the educational intervention effectively improved students’ understanding of balanced nutrition and can be considered effective as a form of educational intervention in the school environment.

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem resulting from long-term nutrient deficiency that has a systemic impact on children’s intellectual capacity. This qualitative study aims to analyze the relationship between predisposing and enabling factors in stunting prevention efforts in Soa-Sio Village, Tidore Kepulauan City. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with seven mothers of stunted toddlers as primary informants and one program officer as a key informant, with data verification using source triangulation. The study findings indicate that prevention efforts have not been fully effective due to gaps in health literacy and household sanitation issues. Regarding predisposing factors, although 100% of respondents had been exposed to information about stunting, 71.4% understood stunting only as a condition of short stature without realizing its cognitive impacts. Meanwhile, regarding enabling factors, physical facilities and clean water are adequate, but their utilization is hindered by communication barriers stemming from health workers’ formal and inflexible approach to local languages. Significant environmental barriers were also found in the area of sanitation, where 28.5% of respondents did not have a private toilet and still practiced shared sanitation. In conclusion, the main barriers to stunting prevention stem from mothers’ low cognitive understanding and poor household sanitation, which have not kept pace with the available physical infrastructure. It is recommended that the Soa-Sio Community Health Center reorient its educational strategy by using interactive counseling methods in the local language, and that a cross-sectoral program be implemented to provide incentives for the construction of sanitary toilets.

Adolescents are vulnerable to nutritional problems due to increased nutritional requirements during rapid growth and development. One of the common nutritional problems among adolescent girls is Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED), which may affect their future health and reproductive function. This community service activity aimed to improve students’ knowledge about balanced nutrition and conduct early detection of nutritional risk, particularly CED, among students of Muhammadiyah 2 Junior High School, Ternate City. The activity was conducted on November 8, 2025, involving 31 students from grades VII, VIII, and IX. The methods included balanced nutrition education through lectures and interactive discussions, followed by nutritional status screening using anthropometric measurements, including body weight, height, and Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) among female students. Knowledge improvement was assessed using pre-test and post-test questionnaires and analyzed using the paired t-test. The results showed an increase in the mean knowledge score from 7.10 before the intervention to 8.48 after the intervention, with a mean difference of 1.387 and a statistically significant difference (p = 0.002). Anthropometric assessment showed that the average MUAC among female students was 22.08 cm, with 5 students (38.5%) identified as being at risk of CED based on MUAC measurements. Conclusion, balanced nutrition education effectively improved students’ knowledge, and nutritional screening is important for early identification of nutritional risks. Routine nutritional monitoring in schools is recommended to support adolescent health and prevent future nutritional problems.
