Abstract

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a medical condition in which blood pressure increases above normal, namely 140/90 mmHg, and carries a risk of morbidity or death (mortality). This disease is often referred to as the silent disease. Irreversible hypertension and modifiable hypertension are two categories of hypertension risk factors. Age, gender, ethnicity and hereditary factors are causes of hypertension that cannot be changed. Smoking, obesity, monotonous lifestyle and stress are modifiable causes of hypertension. In Namorih village, Pancur Batu District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra, this quantitative research aims to determine the relationship between the incidence of hypertension in older people and the influence of their diet and lifestyle. This type of research is quantitative analytical research with a cross-sectional study research design, which means data is collected simultaneously or all at once.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Tract Infection (ARI) remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, especially among vulnerable groups such as toddlers and the elderly. Low public knowledge about ARI prevention is a risk factor contributing to the high morbidity rate. This study aims to determine the effect of education using pocket books on increasing public knowledge about ARI in Pangkalan Dodek Baru Village, Batu Bara Regency. The study used a pre-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach on 58 respondents selected using an accidental sampling technique. The research instrument was a validated closed-ended questionnaire, and data analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that before the intervention, 63.8% of respondents had good knowledge, 20.6% had sufficient knowledge, and 15.6% had insufficient knowledge. After the intervention, all respondents (100%) had good knowledge. The average pre-test score was 7.66, increasing to 9.88 in the post-test, with the Wilcoxon test yielding a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). Thus, it can be concluded that education using pocket books has a significant impact on increasing public knowledge about ARI. This simple educational medium can be used as an alternative promotional and preventive strategy in efforts to control ARI in the community.

Abstract

The perception of primary service personnel towards the reward plan initiated by the Head of Section at the North Sumatra Provincial Health Office is important in understanding the effectiveness of work motivation policies in the government environment. This study aims to determine how primary service personnel view and assess the reward plan initiated by leaders as an effort to improve employee performance. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. There were five informants, who were selected using purposive sampling based on certain criteria such as length of service, knowledge of the reward program, and willingness to provide information. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, non-participatory observation, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results of the study show that most employees have a positive perception of the reward plan because it is considered to increase work enthusiasm and productivity. However, some also expressed concerns that an overly competitive system could create pressure and reduce motivation. The success of the reward program is highly dependent on fairness, transparency of assessment, and empathetic communication between leaders and staff. In conclusion, the fair and transparent implementation of rewards can increase the motivation and loyalty of primary service personnel in supporting the achievement of organizational goals at the North Sumatra Provincial Health Office.
