Abstract

Background: Caring behavior plays a vital role in the nursing profession, especially in public health settings. In-home care services, where patients receive medical attention in the comfort of their homes, the quality of care and patient satisfaction depends heavily on the nurse's ability to exhibit caring behavior. Objective: This study aims to analyze and identify the relationship between the caring behavior of public health nurses and the level of patient satisfaction in homecare services. Methods: In this study, the design used is a quantitative research design with a cross-sectional study approach. According to the formula found by Isaac and Micheal, the population in this study amounted to 402 respondents, so a sample of 162 respondents was obtained. The sampling technique was Probability Sampling with a proportional random sampling type. Results: Based on the results of the cross-tabulation that has been carried out between caring behavior and patient satisfaction using the Fisher Exact test statistical test, the result is in the form of a p-value of 0.001 with a significant level of <0.05 and with this value (0.001) means less than the value a (0.05). It can indicate that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected, and it can be concluded that caring behavior can increase patient satisfaction. Conclusion: Researchers suggest that the caring behavior of public health nurses has a vital role in increasing patient satisfaction with homecare services. Nurses can help patients feel more comfortable and supported in their home environment through more personalised attention, effective communication, and emotional support. This contributes directly to increased patient satisfaction, which feels valued and cared for holistically in home care.

Abstract

Introduction: Stunting is a public health problem that is still high in Indonesia, especially in rural areas. This condition has a long-term impact on a child's physical growth, cognitive development, and quality of life. Community nurses have an important role to play in stunting prevention and management efforts, particularly through a more holistic and sustainable family-based approach. Research Objectives To identify and analyze the strategies used by community nurses in tackling stunting through a family approach, as well as to understand the challenges faced in implementing these strategies at the community level. Research Methodology: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan studi fenomenologi. Sebanyak 10 perawat komunitas di wilayah dengan prevalensi stunting tinggi diwawancarai secara mendalam. Teknik purposive sampling digunakan dalam pemilihan partisipan, dan data dianalisis menggunakan metode tematik untuk mengidentifikasi strategi utama yang diterapkan dalam pendekatan keluarga. Result: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perawat komunitas menerapkan beberapa strategi utama, yaitu: (1) edukasi kesehatan kepada keluarga tentang gizi, sanitasi, dan perawatan anak, (2) kunjungan rumah secara berkala untuk pemantauan pertumbuhan dan pembinaan keluarga, (3) kolaborasi dengan kader posyandu dan tokoh masyarakat dalam pelaksanaan program, serta (4) pemberdayaan ibu melalui kelompok pendampingan dan konseling. Perawat juga menekankan pentingnya membangun hubungan kepercayaan dengan keluarga untuk mendorong perubahan perilaku. Kendala yang dihadapi meliputi rendahnya kesadaran keluarga, budaya lokal yang bertentangan dengan praktik sehat, dan keterbatasan sumber daya. Conclusion: Strategi yang dilakukan oleh perawat komunitas melalui pendekatan keluarga terbukti efektif dalam upaya menanggulangi stunting. Pemberdayaan keluarga dan kolaborasi lintas sektor menjadi kunci keberhasilan. Diperlukan dukungan berkelanjutan untuk memperkuat kapasitas perawat komunitas dalam menjalankan peran ini secara optimal.
