Abstract

Background: Women's involvement in decision-making related to health services has a significant impact on improving maternal and child health, as well as strengthening women's empowerment. In 2022, the Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) in Pasaman Barat District was 195 per 100,000 live births, ranking first among districts and cities in West Sumatra Province.Objective: This study aims to identify factors associated with women's physical independence in accessing maternal and child health (MCH) services.Methods: This is an analytical study using a cross-sectional design. The sample size was 106 participants.Results: 3.2% of respondents had low independence in utilizing MCH services. Residential area (p-value = 0.038; AOR = 0.321) and knowledge about MCH (p-value = 0.001; AOR = 7.015) were the dominant factors associated with women's physical independence in utilizing MCH services. Meanwhile, husband's education, number of family members, mother's occupation, age group, mother's education, husband's occupation, family income, and access to health facilities were confounding variables in this study.Conclusion: The low level of women's autonomy in utilizing KIA services is primarily influenced by the area of residence and the level of knowledge about KIA. Educational efforts, training of health workers, and cross-sectoral collaboration are needed to improve access and gender equality in health services.

Abstract

Nagari Pandai Sikek West Sumatra experienced a flash flood disaster that caused infrastructure damage, disruption of basic services, and decreased the quality of life of the community, especially vulnerable groups. This activity aims to improve the quality of life and health of post-disaster communities through an integrated approach in the fields of health and disaster management. The quality of life of the community is measured through a composite approach that includes knowledge improvement (pre- and post-tests), behavioral changes and participation in activities, simple health conditions (blood pressure and physical activity), waste bank and maggot-based environmental management, and community social involvement. These indicators show improvements in physical, cognitive, social, and environmental aspects after the community service activities. Activity methods include socialization, simulation, and education with a pre-test and post-test approach to measure the effectiveness of the intervention. Activities were carried out in the form of disaster mitigation counseling for elementary school students, maggot-based waste management training, healthy lifestyle counseling for the elderly through the GERMAS program, and nutrition education for parents related to stunting prevention. The results of the activity showed an increase in public understanding of disaster mitigation, with an average pre-test score of 58.4 increasing to 82.7 in the post-test. The community demonstrated a better understanding of the importance of waste management to prevent environmental pollution, awareness of early detection of hypertension, and the fulfillment of balanced nutrition to prevent stunting. Active participation in simulations, question and answer sessions, and discussions were indicators of the success of the activity. It can be concluded that this community service program succeeded in increasing the understanding and awareness of the Pandai Sikek community regarding health and disaster preparedness. The sustainability of this program needs to be supported through collaboration with local governments, educational institutions, and local communities to expand its positive impact.

Abstract

The aim of this activity is to educate and empower the community to actively participate in conservation efforts, which involves mangrove planting mutual cooperation activities, the formation of environmental awareness groups, and collaboration with NGOs, government, and academics. The activity methods used are providing education using lectures, educational videos, distributing flyers and posters and planting mangrove seedlings on the beach. To measure the success of education, pre tests and post tests were used to measure the level of community knowledge about mangrove forest conservation. The results of this activity increased community knowledge by 6.13, from 12.53 (before education) to 18.66 (after education). The T-test results obtained a p-value <0.001. That is, statistically it can be concluded that there is a significant average difference between community knowledge before and after education. The conclusion of this activity is that after being given education, the average community has increased knowledge about mangrove forest conservation as an effort to reduce disaster risk. It is hoped that the community and local government will be able to maintain and preserve mangrove forests in the Bosua Village area as a form of effort in disaster mitigation.
