This study aims to determine the factors that influence the incidence of stunting in toddlers. The research design is observational analytics using a case-control research design. The results show a statistical test result value of p-value of 0.016; employment of 0.013; family income of 0.002. It can be concluded that parenting affects the incidence of stunting in toddlers. Stunting is the result of a combination of complex factors and interactions between social, economic, health, and environmental aspects. Therefore, stunting handling must also be holistic and involve various sectors to achieve optimal results.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health challenge that threatens child growth and long-term human development, particularly among vulnerable families. Family-based interventions are essential to address the behavioral and environmental determinants of stunting that occur at the household level. This community service program aimed to strengthen family capacity in preventing stunting among children at risk through family-based home care assistance focusing on nutrition interventions and healthy parenting practices. The program was implemented using a structured and participatory approach consisting of five stages: socialization, training, application of appropriate technology, mentoring and evaluation, and program sustainability. Activities were conducted with families who had children at risk of stunting and were supported by community nurses and health cadres. Training emphasized balanced nutrition, age-appropriate feeding practices, dietary diversity using locally available foods, hygiene and sanitation, healthy parenting, and child growth monitoring. Simple digital educational media and mobile-based communication were used to reinforce learning and facilitate follow-up. Mentoring was carried out through regular home visits to provide individualized guidance and support behavior change. The results showed improvements in caregiver knowledge, feeding practices, healthy parenting behaviors, compliance with child growth monitoring, and utilization of simple technology after program implementation. These findings indicate that family-based home care assistance is a feasible and effective approach to strengthening family capacity for stunting prevention. Integrating nutrition education, healthy parenting support, appropriate technology, and continuous mentoring within community-based services can contribute to sustainable improvements in child nutrition practices and support long-term efforts to reduce stunting at the community level.

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period marked by vulnerability to various reproductive health problems, including physical, mental, and social challenges. Limited knowledge about reproductive health often leads adolescents to engage in risky behaviors and exhibit low self-efficacy in maintaining their well-being. Self-efficacy refers to an individual’s belief in their ability to perform actions necessary to achieve desired outcomes. In reproductive health, it reflects adolescents’ confidence in making informed decisions and adopting protective behaviors. Health education is therefore a strategic intervention to improve adolescents’ knowledge, attitudes, and confidence regarding reproductive health. This study aimed to examine the effect of reproductive health education on adolescents’ self-efficacy in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Kota Enrekang Regency. A quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach was employed. A total of 80 adolescents were selected using purposive sampling, and the intervention was delivered through leaflet-based health education. Self-efficacy was measured using a 20-item questionnaire. Before the intervention, only 13.7% of respondents demonstrated good self-efficacy, while 86.3% were categorized as low. After the intervention, there was a significant increase in the mean self-efficacy score from 38.56 to 72.12, with a mean difference of 33.56 and a p-value of 0.009. These findings indicate that reproductive health education significantly improves adolescents’ self-efficacy. The study highlights the importance of integrating structured reproductive health education into school and community programs to empower adolescents, reduce risky behaviors, and promote healthier future generations in Indonesia.

Abstract

Kepatuhan penggunaan kontrasepsi pada wanita usia subur (WUS) merupakan faktor kunci keberhasilan program keluarga berencana karena ketidakpatuhan berkontribusi pada kegagalan metode dan kehamilan tidak direncanakan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh integrasi edukasi gizi dan farmasi terhadap kepatuhan penggunaan kontrasepsi pada WUS serta implikasinya bagi kebijakan administrasi kesehatan. Penelitian quasi-eksperimental dengan desain one group pretest-posttest dilakukan pada 30 WUS akseptor kontrasepsi di (nama lokasi) pada (bulan) 2026. Intervensi berupa dua sesi edukasi terintegrasi gizi–farmasi diberikan selama 2 minggu melalui konseling terstruktur dan kartu pengingat jadwal kontrol. Kepatuhan diukur menggunakan skor kepatuhan (0–10) dan ketepatan jadwal kontrol, kemudian dianalisis dengan uji Wilcoxon. Hasil menunjukkan sebelum intervensi 20 responden (66,7%) tidak patuh dan 10 responden (33,3%) patuh; setelah intervensi proporsi patuh meningkat menjadi 24 responden (80,0%). Median skor kepatuhan meningkat dari 4 (2–7) menjadi 8 (5–10) dengan p = 0,000 (p < 0,001) yang menunjukkan pengaruh signifikan integrasi edukasi terhadap peningkatan kepatuhan kontrasepsi. Temuan ini mendukung pentingnya penguatan kebijakan administrasi kesehatan melalui SOP konseling kolaboratif lintas profesi, sistem pengingat jadwal, serta monitoring kepatuhan untuk menjaga keberlanjutan layanan KB
