Abstract

Diarrhea has been one of the major health issues, particularly among children, and the performance of healthcare workers in implementing effective diarrhea programs has been crucial for its prevention and treatment. The success of diarrhea control may be influenced by the performance of healthcare workers; however, implementation has remained suboptimal in some areas, including the Marawola Community Health Center, which has experienced fluctuating diarrhea incidence rates. The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of healthcare workers' performance in implementing diarrhea programs on the prevalence of diarrhea cases among children. This study employed quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach, conducted in the service area of the Marawola Health Center in 2024. The study sample consisted of 77 respondents selected using stratified random sampling. Data was collected through questionnaires, and analysis was performed using logistic regression. The results of the logistic regression analysis indicated that the performance of healthcare workers in implementing the diarrhea program significantly affected the incidence of diarrhea in children (p = 0.017), although the constant value was not statistically significant (p = 0.163). This suggests that other factors need to be considered in addition to healthcare worker performance when optimizing the diarrhea program for children. In conclusion, the performance of healthcare workers needs to be improved in the implementation of diarrhea programs for children. Strategies such as training, supervision, the use of technology, and community involvement can be implemented. Further research is needed to explore other factors influencing the effectiveness of these programs.

Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, especially in rural areas with limited access to nutrition and sanitation. This community service activity aims to provide residents of Tosale Village, Donggala Regency, with knowledge about stunting prevention and the importance of environmental hygiene through a participatory educational approach. The implementation methods included field observations, stunting discussions, installation of educational visual media, as well as mutual cooperation activities and the cultivation of medicinal plants and vegetables. The results of the activity showed an increase in community understanding of balanced nutrition, clean and healthy lifestyles, the cultivation of medicinal plants and vegetables, and the revival of a culture of mutual cooperation. The stunting discussion forum served as a platform to encourage cross-community participation in the village, while visual media strengthened health literacy through easily understandable messages. Overall, this activity demonstrated that a participatory approach can increase collective awareness and preventive behavior against stunting while strengthening the independence of village communities in creating a sustainable healthy environment.
