Maternal self efficacy in preventing stunting is an important factor that need to be considered. The aim of this research was to analyze maternal self efficacy in preventing stunting in Denpasar City. The research was done in quantitative and qualitative, with a cross-sectional design. The research population consisted of mothers with toddlers aged 6-24 months in the North Denpasar Primary Health Care I, II, and III work areas. The total sample was 203 mothers of toddlers. Quantitative data were collected using questionnaires, while qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews. The qualitative data analysis process was carried out using the manual coding method by entering the answers of each respondent, using Spearman rank and content analysis. Characteristics of mothers of toddlers: average age 31 years, number of children 2, tertiary education (49.7%), occupation as a housewife (48.8%), income above minimum wage (54.7%), permanent residence status for more than 6 months (86.7%), high self-efficacy (89.9%). The strength of the relationship is moderate with a correlation coefficient of 0.258. The results of the correlation test showed that there is a relationship between self-efficacy towards stunting prevention (p-value 0.08). Mothers who have good self-efficacy will later carry out sufficient stunting prevention. The mother's confidence in ensuring her child's growth and development according to the stages will be able to prevent stunting.

Abstract

Based on observations among the elderly group, it was found that out of 112 respondents, nearly half (45.5%) suffered from hypertension. However, only 6.3% of the elderly regularly attended Posyandu Lansia (Elderly Integrated Health Post) activities. Currently, services provided at the Posyandu include exercise sessions, health education, and medical check-ups. The objectives of this community service program were to: (1) empower Posyandu cadres, (2) provide education for the elderly regarding a healthy environment, balanced diet, oral health maintenance, and self-acupressure techniques, and (3) offer blood pressure monitoring and acupressure services at the Posyandu Lansia in Kutampi Village. The methods applied in this program included community empowerment, health education, and direct health services. The target participants were Posyandu cadres and elderly residents of Kutampi Village, with activities conducted from June to November 2025. Program success was measured based on attendance and improvement in participants’ knowledge. The cadre empowerment program for elderly hypertension management involved 27 cadres who participated in the training sessions. Strengthening the Posyandu Lansia was achieved through educational activities on hypertension, healthy environments, and appropriate dietary choices for hypertension, along with blood pressure measurement and acupressure services. The program received strong support from the Village Head of Kutampi and the Head of Nusa Penida I Public Health Center. Post-education evaluations showed an improvement in participants’ knowledge.
