Abstract

Psychosocial support plays an important role in improving the quality of life of cancer patients, especially through assistance by lay workers. This study aimed to explore lay workers' experiences in providing psychosocial support to cancer patients. This study used a qualitative approach with an in-depth interview method with 14 participants selected by purposive sampling. Participants were lay workers who had attended basic and advanced palliative training, as well as cancer awareness guidance, and had experience in providing palliative assistance to cancer patients for more than one year. The data collection technique used was deep interviews, which were conducted directly with participants. The data collected were thematically analysed through interview transcription, coding, pattern identification, theme review, and research report preparation. The research identified four main themes: (1) forms of psychosocial mentoring, (2) challenges in mentoring, (3) support and collaboration during mentoring, and (4) strategies and development of psychosocial mentoring. Lay workers used various approaches, including emotional presence, relaxation techniques, moral support, and education to help patients overcome anxiety, fear, and loneliness. The main challenges faced included difficulties in building patient openness, limited lay worker skills, and lack of family support. Support from health workers and collaboration with families play a role in optimizing assistance. Further training is needed to improve lay workers' skills in dealing with complex psychological problems. A more personalized, empathy-based and integrated approach can strengthen support and increase the effectiveness of psychosocial assistance.

Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive medical condition that imposes significant physical, psychological, and social burdens on both patients and their families. Long-term hemodialysis therapy demands substantial involvement from family members, not only in logistical support but also in providing emotional stability. However, the emotional role and adaptive strategies of families in supporting CKD patients remain underexplored, particularly in the context of long-term care. This study aims to explore the emotional roles and coping strategies employed by family caregivers of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis. A qualitative approach with an interpretative phenomenological design was applied. Twelve participants, all immediate family members of patients receiving regular hemodialysis at Hospital X in Pontianak, Indonesia, were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The trustworthiness of the data was enhanced through triangulation and member checking. The study identified four major themes: (1) The Emotional Role of the Family in Accompanying the Patient; (2) Adaptive Strategies for Families in Facing the Challenges of Mentoring; (3) Psychosocial Challenges in the Mentoring Process; and (4) Family Meanings and Expectations in Assisting CKD Patients. Family caregiving was found to be not only burdensome but also an opportunity for emotional growth and personal transformation. This study highlights the need for structured psychosocial support and counseling services for families, and proposes the development of a comprehensive family-centered caregiving model in hemodialysis units.

Abstract

Palliative care programs are important to improve the quality of life of patients and families in the face of life-threatening disease problems through prevention and alleviation of symptoms. This research aims to explore the barriers of palliative kader’s in providing care and assistance to cancer patients and families. This qualitative research is using a descriptive method. The sampling technique in this study was the purposive sampling technique. Participants in this study were 10 palliative kader in the DKI Jakarta area who provided services in the form of care and assistance to cancer patients and families, data collection techniques using in-depth interviews. Four themes emerged in the form of (1) lack of family support, (2) inadequate health promotion media, (3) lack of support system for palliative kader’s, and (4) lack of confidence in the care and assistance of cancer patients and families. This study emphasizes the importance of adaptive coping mechanisms for patients and families so that they can support palliative kader in care and assistance in the form of meeting basic needs. Empowerment increases the ability of palliative kader’s through training to strengthen the duties and roles of kader and coordinate with relevant stakeholders who can accommodate the solution of any obstacles experienced by palliative kader.

Abstract

Palliative care is essential in improving quality of life for cancer patients, especially in community settings where access to specialist care is limited. In Indonesia, lay workers play a vital role in bridging formal health services and patients requiring psychosocial and emotional support. This study explores the self-transformation experiences of palliative care lay workers following an advanced palliative cancer training program in Jakarta. Using a qualitative approach with interpretative phenomenological analysis, the study involved 14 participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via in-depth interviews and analysed thematically. Findings reveal four main themes: (1) increased confidence and competence after training, (2) challenges in implementing palliative care in the community, (3) the importance of social and institutional support, and (4) recommendations for improving future training. The study concludes that experiential, context-based training enhances lay workers’ ability to provide holistic care, though systemic support and mentorship are crucial for sustainable impact. This research contributes to the growing evidence on community lay workers in palliative care and offers insights for designing programs that empower lay workers as reliable care agents in community-based cancer management.

Abstract

Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever is a disease caused by the dengue virus due to the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Patients will go through 3 phases of this disease: fever, critical, and recovery. A complication that often occurs in the critical phase is dengue shock syndrome. This case report aimed to provide an overview of nursing care for patients in the critical phase of dengue hemorrhagic fever at a private hospital in West Jakarta. Care was provided by Diploma III nursing students for 4 days using a nursing process approach that includes assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Data was collected using interview techniques, observation, and physical and diagnostic examinations. The assessment showed that the patient was in a grade II critical phase, characterized by the appearance of petechiae on both superior extremities without a tourniquet test. The nursing problems raised were the risk of hypovolemia, the risk of bleeding, acute pain, and nausea. The interventions provided focus on preventing bleeding and fluid management. The implementation includes providing appropriate fluid resuscitation, monitoring blood hematology laboratories, and encouraging patients to rest in bed to reduce the risk of other bleeding. On the fourth day of treatment, three nursing problems were solved: the risk of bleeding, acute pain and nausea. The nursing problem that was partially resolved is the risk of hypovolemia. In conclusion, in dengue hemorrhagic patients in the critical phase, nurses need to pay primary attention to the possibility of hypovolemia even though it is not necessarily an actual problem.

Abstract

Nursing care is a crucial aspect in addressing health issues, including Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/ Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), especially within the gay population. A lack of knowledge regarding nursing care for this population can hinder the reduction of HIV/AIDS cases. There is a need for HIV/AIDS nursing care standards that are not only comprehensive but also sensitive to the specific perceptions and needs of gay patients. Negative perceptions of nursing care can affect the quality of care and patient involvement in managing their health. Therefore, this study aims to explore these perceptions. This study employed a qualitative descriptive design to gain a deep understanding of the perceptions of gay patients with HIV/AIDS towards nursing care. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with 14 participants selected purposively. The interviews were designed to explore the participants' views, experiences, and expectations regarding the nursing services they received. The collected data was analyzed using thematic analysis, allowing the researchers to identify and categorize the main themes from the gathered information. Two main themes were identified during this study: The desired professional nursing services for gay individuals with HIV/AIDS and the limitations of nurses in involving gay clients with HIV/AIDS in the nursing care planning process. Consistent and standardized nursing care services, as well as enhancing nurses' skills and abilities through mentoring and training, are the expectations of gay individuals with HIV/AIDS towards professional nursing care. A heavy workload is a limitation faced by nurses in providing optimal nursing care to gay individuals with HIV/AIDS.
