Abstract

Clean water is one of the primary needs for human survival to continue. The quality, quantity and continuity of water consumed by humans will play a major role in people's lives. This study used a cross-sectional design and the sample used in this study used total sampling. The total sample size was 30 respondents. Data were collected by questionnaire to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitude, and action of the community with the microbiological quality of borehole water. Samples of clean water and drinking water were taken to determine the microbiological quality of water. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Based on the results of the chi-square test, there was no relationship between knowledge and attitude with the microbiological quality of borehole water, and there was a relationship between action and microbiological quality of borehole water with a p-value of 0.001. Proper action in the management of borehole water could reduce the risk of microbiological pollution. These findings were expected to be the basis for efforts to improve the quality of clean water in the neighborhood around the landfill and provide useful information for the community and related parties in maintaining environmental health.

Abstract

The dengue virus is the cause of dengue hemorrhagic fever, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).Dengue fever is called “breakbone fever” (joint fever) because it causes severe pain as if a bone is broken. The purpose of this case-control observational study was to identify the DHF risk variables and distribution pattern.The sample size was 1:1 with 22 cases and 22 controls. Analysis of distribution patterns used average nearest neighbor and overlay. Risk factors and incidence were analyzed Chi-square is used for both univariate and bivariate analysis with a 95% confidence level (α = 0.05). With a p-value of 0.0<0.05, the findings indicated a correlation between the occurrence of DHF and the removal of mosquito nests. Furthermore, a p-value of 0.01<0.05 indicated a correlation between the incidence of DHF and the gauze installation. The pattern of population distribution is seen from the distribution pattern, population density comparison, and buffering. The abstract will be revised to include a brief explanation about dengue fever control efforts, such as the 3M Plus mosquito nest eradication (PSN) activities and the installation of gauze on ventilation, which were analyzed as part of the study variables influencing DHF incidence.

Abstract

Inadequate waste management in healthcare facilities can negatively impact healthcare workers, patients, and the environment. As a daily healthcare service unit, Talang Ratu Public Health Center is required to manage medical waste properly. This study aims to analyze the solid medical waste management process at Talang Ratu Public Health Center. It is a descriptive study using a qualitative approach to explore the management practices, facilities, and infrastructure involved in handling solid medical waste. Eight informants were selected through purposive sampling, consisting of two sanitarians/health workers, one cleaning staff member, and five heads of outpatient departments. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using triangulation techniques. Sources of medical waste include the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) unit, pharmacy, laboratory, and dental clinic. Overall, the waste management process has been adequately implemented in accordance with the Ministry of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. 6 of 2021. Waste is segregated using color-coded containers and transported after service hours by staff wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE). However, transportation is still done manually due to the lack of dedicated trolleys. There is also a health risk as temporary waste storage lasts between two weeks to one month without proper temperature control. The study recommends providing trolleys to facilitate transportation, establishing designated transportation routes to minimize spill risks, and installing temperature control systems in storage areas to prevent pathogen proliferation. These improvements are necessary to enhance the safety and efficiency of solid medical waste management at the health center.
