Abstract

Background: The distribution of health facilities is an essential indicator to improve public health services in Indonesia. However, the country’s archipelagic geography and uneven population density create challenges in ensuring equal access. This study aimed to analyze hospital distribution in Indonesia based on provinces and main islands to evaluate inequality in health service accessibility. Subjects and Method: A comparative descriptive study was conducted using secondary data. Hospital data were obtained from the Hospital Information System (SIRS) of the Ministry of Health (2024), and population data were retrieved from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) report (2023). A total of 3,209 hospitals were identified across 38 provinces and grouped into seven island clusters: Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Papua, Maluku, and Bali–Nusa Tenggara. The population-to-hospital ratio was calculated, and hospital distribution was further analyzed by province, island, and hospital class. Results: Java accounted for the largest number of hospitals (1,622) due to its high population and better infrastructure. In contrast, Eastern regions such as Papua (73) and Maluku (53) showed limited availability. Inequalities were also found in hospital classes, where advanced hospitals (Class A and B) were concentrated in Java, while peripheral regions were dominated by Class C and D facilities. This disparity forces residents in remote areas to travel long distances for adequate care. Conclusion: Unequal hospital distribution highlights the urgent need for equitable health infrastructure development and strategic resource allocation policies to ensure fair access to health services across Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Substance abuse in Higher and Tertiary Education Institutions (HTEIs) poses a serious threat to students’ academic achievement, mental well-being, and campus safety. Although various interventions have been introduced, the effectiveness of existing policies remains inconsistent. This study compared global literature on school-related substance abuse policies with policy responses in selected Copperbelt HTEIs in Zambia to inform the development of contextually appropriate strategies for substance abuse reduction. Subjects and Method: The study applied the Protocol, Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, and Reporting (PSALAR) framework, guided by the Population, Interest, and Context (PICo) approach. Two colleges and one university in Zambia’s Copperbelt Province were purposively selected, and an exhaustive online search was conducted to identify institutional policies addressing substance abuse. Peer-reviewed English articles (2013–2023) focusing on punitive and remedial school-based policies were reviewed. Inclusion criteria for HTEIs were adapted to align with the PSALAR framework. Results: Three major themes emerged: (1) policy deficiencies and implementation gaps, (2) punitive versus remedial interventions, and (3) limited monitoring and evaluation mechanisms. The dominant issue was finding an effective balance between punitive and supportive policy approaches. The integration of substance abuse education within institutional frameworks was weak, and evidence on the relative effectiveness of punitive versus remedial measures remained inconclusive. Conclusion: Substance abuse policies in Zambian HTEIs predominantly emphasize punitive responses, with insufficient attention to remedial or preventive efforts. Strengthening evidence-based, context-specific, and student-centered policies is essential to reduce substance abuse and advance Zambia’s progress toward Sustainable Development Goal 3.5 by 2030.
