Abstract

Introduction: Learning in the community presents different challenges than learning in a clinical setting. However, studies on student nurses' experience in the community have not been discussed comprehensively. This study aimed to explored nursing students’ experiences in a community setting using the five stages of the nursing process   Method: This study used a qualitative design with the Photovoice approach. A total of 14 students were involved in the study. Data was collected by taking photos and small group discussions for the narrative photo with the SHOWED approach. Photos and narration are the primary data and are analyzed thematically.   Result: A total of approximately eighteen photos have been included. At the assessment phase, the student requires an adaptation process and strategic anticipation, as the practice was conducted directly in the participants’ community. Formulating nursing diagnosis is done through teamwork and group discussion with an approach based on evidence and theory, and asking for guidance from the lecturer as a facilitator for learning. The development of nursing intervention was done with active participation from society, presenting the intervention plan to the community, community meetings, and ensuring the legality of the plan's activities. Implementation in the nursing community is implemented collaboratively between students and the community following the agreed-upon plan. Evaluating nursing practice is done with collaborative reflection of students, discussion together, and related plans, actions, and carrying on independently in public.   Conclusion: This study finds that community-based nursing practice requires student adaptation, strategic planning, and evidence-based teamwork.   Keywords: Clinical nursing education, community health nursing, photovoice, nursing students, nursing care plan

Abstract

Introduction: Work-related muscle pain is a common health problem among beauty clinic workers due to prolonged standing and repetitive movements. Stretching exercises are recognized as a low-cost, non-pharmacological intervention for preventing and reducing musculoskeletal discomfort. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of supervised and unsupervised stretching programs in reducing muscle pain among beauty clinic workers.   Method: A quasi-experimental study employing a two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted with 84 participants recruited from two beauty clinics in Pasuruan, Indonesia. Participant selection was based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria established by the researchers. At Clinic A, participants received supervised stretching exercises facilitated by a community health nurse, whereas at Clinic B, the same stretching routine was carried out independently using printed guidelines. Pain intensity was assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) both before and after a two-week intervention period. Data analysis was performed with the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and the Mann–Whitney U Test.   Result: Both groups experienced a significant reduction in muscle pain after the intervention (p < 0.001). However, Clinic A showed a greater improvement in pain reduction compared to Clinic B (p = 0.025), indicating the added benefit of professional supervision.   Conclusion: Stretching is an effective strategy for reducing work-related muscle pain, and supervision by community health nurses enhances its effectiveness. This finding supports the integration of structured stretching programs into workplace health promotion, particularly in service sectors with high physical demands. This highlights the vital role of community health nurses in workplace musculoskeletal prevention and the importance of integrating nurse-led initiatives into occupational health programs.   Keywords: Muscle pain, stretching exercise, workplace intervention, community health nursing; beauty clinic workers.

Abstract

Introduction: HIV/AIDS is a terminal disease that attacks the immune system with a fairly high incidence in Indonesia. Adolescents are one of the groups at risk of this, so a commitment is needed in preventing this disease. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to determine the commitment of adolescents in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior and identify factors that influence it.   Method: This cross-sectional study involved 102 adolescents through total sampling. Independent variables include demographic factors (age, gender and residential status) and perception of benefits measured using a questionnaire. The commitment variable as the dependent variable was measured using a questionnaire containing 9 questions. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately with a significance level of 0.05 by the Spearman Rank test.   Result: The results of the study showed that most respondents (56.9%) had a good commitment in HIV/AIDS prevention behavior. Factors that influence commitment include: gender (p =<0.001) and perception of benefits (p=<0.001). Age and residence status were not related to prevention commitment with p=0.224 and p=0.081. Adolescents who have a positive perception of the benefits of carrying out disease prevention behaviors and know the dangers of HIV/AIDS are more committed to adopting prevention behaviors. Gender (woman) is also an important determinant in prevention commitment because of health awareness, exposure to sexual education, and the role of maintaining reproductive health.   Conclusion: Schools have a role in increasing commitment to HIV/AIDS prevention through optimizing educational and counseling facilities with a gender-based prevention approach and focusing on increasing perceptions of benefits.   Keywords: Adolescents, commitment, HIV /AIDS, preventive behavior, perceived benefit

Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women in the world and is increasing every year. Breast cancer can be prevented by early detection through Breast self-examination. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Breast Self-Examination on improving adolescents' knowledge and skills in the early detection of breast cancer.   Method: The research design employed was a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach for both the intervention group and the control group. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The respondents selected by the researcher were adolescent girls aged 12–18 years attending a public junior high school in Jakarta. Data collection was conducted through knowledge questionnaires and skill questionnaires administered in April 2025. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test to assess changes within each group and the Mann-Whitney U Test to compare differences between the intervention and control groups.   Result: The test results, using the Mann-Whitney Test on the intervention and control groups, showed an increase in knowledge and skills. The results of the Wilcoxon test on pre-test and post-test were significant at the level of knowledge and skills in adolescents towards early detection of breast cancer, with a p-value <0.05.   Conclusion: Educational demonstrations on breast self-examination have been proven effective in improving adolescents' knowledge and skills in the early detection of breast cancer. Health education on breast self-examination is important to be implemented from the adolescent age when menstruation begins as a preventive measure against breast cancer.   Keywords: Demonstration, Skills, Knowledge, Adolescent Self-Breast Examination.

Abstract

Introduction: Work-related stress is a common concern in contemporary work environments, affecting employees physical and psychological health. It is essential to identify effective interventions to mitigate stress and its associated health risks. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have gained attention as promising methods for stress reduction and mental health improvement. This systematic review examines the effectiveness of Mindfulness therapy for stress prevention among workers.   Method: A systematic review following Joanna Briggs Institute recommendations. The databases searched were PubMed, Science Direct, ProQuest and Sage Journal. Search was conducted in February 2025. The review synthesizes evidence from recent studies published between 2020 and 2025. Keywords used included 'Mindfulness therapy,' 'stress prevention,' 'occupational stress,' and 'worker well-being.' The inclusion criteria encompassed focusing on adult workers aged 18 to 60. Articles not involving workers or focusing on non-occupational stress were excluded.   Result: A total of 14 studies were included, comprising randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, systematic reviews and observational studies. Findings consistently demonstrated that Mindfulness interventions, such as Mindful Breathing, Mindfulness Meditation, and Body Scan Meditation, effectively reduce stress levels among workers. The results support the adoption of Mindfulness-based practices in occupational health programs. Implementing Mindfulness interventions in the workplace could reduce stress and enhance employee well-being. However, some studies reported variability in the effectiveness based on intervention duration and participant engagement   Conclusion: Mindfulness therapy is a viable strategy for preventing occupational stress. Further research is recommended to explore long-term effects and optimize intervention delivery in diverse workplace settings.   Keywords: Mindfulness, occupational health nursing, stress;worker

Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death among women, with cases increasingly found in younger populations. Early detection through breast self-examination (BSE) is an effective preventive measure, yet knowledge among Indonesian adolescents remains limited. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of audiovisual and leaflet-based education in improving knowledge of BSE among adolescent girls.   Method: A quasi-experimental two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among seventh- and eighth-grade female students at SMP Negeri 1 Peterongan, Jombang, Indonesia. From a population of 264 students, the sample size was determined using the Krejcie and Morgan formula, yielding 157 participants. To balance the groups, 160 students (80 per group) were recruited. Proportional random sampling was applied. Knowledge levels were measured using a validated questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank test and One-Way ANOVA.   Result: Before intervention, most students in the audiovisual group demonstrated poor knowledge (52.5%), while most in the leaflet group had moderate knowledge (50%). After intervention, knowledge levels significantly improved in both groups (p < 0.001). In the audiovisual group, 90% achieved good knowledge, whereas in the leaflet group, 60% maintained moderate knowledge. One-Way ANOVA confirmed a significant difference between groups (p < 0.001), with audiovisual media showing greater effectiveness.   Conclusion: Audiovisual education proved more effective than leaflet-based education in enhancing adolescent girls’ knowledge of BSE. Integrating audiovisual methods into school health programs may strengthen early breast cancer awareness and prevention efforts among young populations.   Keywords: Breast self-examination, adolescent girls, audiovisual media, leaflet, health education.
