Abstract

Diarrhea is an endemic disease of significant concern in Indonesia and ranks as the second-largest cause of mortality among children under the age of five. This study aims to identify the correlation between residential location and the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers aged 24–59 months in North Sumatra Province, utilizing data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI). This research used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach and included 3784 toddlers aged 24 to 59 months. Analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The results of the analysis showed a p-value of 0,002 (p < 0,05), indicating a strong correlation between place of residency and the incidence of diarrhea. An odds ratio (OR) of 1,670 indicates that toddlers living in urban areas are 1,670 times more predisposed to experiencing diarrhea compared to their rural counterparts. The findings underscore the necessity of considering regional context in the fight against diarrhea in North Sumatera, necessitating interventions adapted to urban and rural settings to enhance the specificity and efficacy of prevention programs aimed at lowering diarrhea incidence in toddlers.

Abstract

Mental health is an integral component of overall health that affects individuals’ social, emotional, and productive functioning. However, mental health literacy in the community remains relatively low, as indicated by limited understanding of mental health concepts, early signs of psychological problems, strategies for maintaining mental well-being, and the importance of seeking appropriate help. This condition may reinforce stigma and hinder promotive and preventive efforts in the community. This community service program aimed to improve mental health literacy through community-based psychological education. The program was implemented using an educational and participatory approach consisting of four stages: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and follow-up. The activities included health education sessions, interactive discussions, simple simulations, and community assistance. The evaluation was conducted using pre-tests and post-tests, observation of participants’ involvement, and participant feedback. The expected outcomes included improved public knowledge of mental health, increased ability to identify early signs of psychological problems, reduced stigma, and greater awareness of maintaining mental well-being and accessing appropriate support services. The indicators of success were reflected in the implementation of activities as planned, active participant engagement, and improved participants’ understanding after attending the program.
