Abstract

Public Health Centers (Puskesmas) as primary healthcare facilities play a crucial role in promotive and preventive efforts against non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and high cholesterol. The Integrated Primary Services Program (ILP) implemented at Bontang Selatan I Health Center aims to raise community awareness of the importance of regular health check-ups. This initiative involves posyandu cadres, healthcare workers, and university students in conducting screenings for blood pressure, blood glucose, and cholesterol levels at two community health posts: Berseri 1 and Kasih Ibu 2. The results indicate a higher prevalence of hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hypercholesterolemia among the elderly at Berseri 1, likely due to poor dietary habits rich in sugar, salt, and fat. In contrast, more stable health profiles were observed at Kasih Ibu 2, which had a predominance of younger, more health-conscious participants. Direct health education following the screenings proved effective in increasing awareness of NCD risks. This program aligns with government efforts to control NCDs through community-based approaches at Puskesmas and Posyandu. Strengthening health education, routine monitoring, and cadre training is essential to improve the program's effectiveness

Abstract

Background : Community health status is strongly influenced by environmental factors, particularly housing conditions and access to clean water. Poor environmental quality increases the risk of environmentally related diseases such as diarrhea, skin infections, and acute respiratory infections (ARI). Objective : This study aimed to assess the physical quality of houses and sources of clean water as a basis for improving environmental health in rural areas. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : A quantitative descriptive design with univariate analysis was employed in Bukit Pariaman Village, Suka Sari Hamlet, Tenggarong Seberang District. Data were collected through field observation, structured interviews, and questionnaires involving 57 household heads. Results : Findings revealed that 84.2% of houses had adequate ventilation and 73.7% had permanent walls, whereas 26.3% lacked sufficient natural lighting. Approximately 96.5% of households accessed clean water through piped water systems; however, 33.3% stored water in uncovered containers and 12.3% had wells located less than 10 meters from septic tanks, posing contamination risks. In addition, 70.2% of households owned private latrines, while 29.8% used shared facilities. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Most households met the criteria for healthy housing, yet improvements are needed in lighting, water source distance, and water storage practices to minimize the risk of environmentally related diseases.
