Abstract

Introduction: This study delves into the critical realm of dietary guidance and education for psychiatric patients, with a particular emphasis on individuals afflicted by schizophrenia and associated psychosis. Main objective was to survey senior nursing students to gauge their attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs regarding diet and nutrition in psychosis. Researchers also wanted to evaluate their confidence levels in providing education regarding dietary considerations for individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. Methods: This research study design was descriptive, which included a survey approach. Participants were recruited from the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program who were in their final semester of the program, all senior nursing students. Sample was chosen for convenience. Analysis was done using descriptive statistics. Results: Participants expressed moderate to low confidence levels in their ability to provide accurate education and dietary guidance. Attitudes and beliefs varied among respondents. Participants reported low confidence levels in their knowledge about diet and mental health disorders. Conclusions: The study revealed that nursing students valued diet and mental health treatment. However, the identified gaps in confidence levels, particularly in providing accurate information and discussing diet with clients who have psychosis, suggest the need for targeted educational interventions in nursing curricula.

Abstract

Introduction: This study investigated the effect of bar soap made from eco-enzymes and apples on the skin moisture of older adults. Eco-enzymes, produced by fermenting organic materials, have a pH of 4-5. Apples contain skin-beneficial compounds: fiber, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. This research aimed to determine the impact of using this soap on the moisture of older adults' skin.   Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test design was used with a treatment group (n=33) using the soap for 7 days and a control group (n=33) receiving no intervention. The study was conducted on older adults who met the inclusion criteria. Skin moisture was measured using a digital skin analyzer and analyzed with a Wilcoxon test. Results: The results indicated no significant effect of the soap on skin moisture in either the treatment (p=0.063) or control (p=0.083) groups (p>0.05). The unexpected results were attributed to the short study duration and extreme weather conditions at the mountain's base. Conclusion: Given the challenging weather at the mountain's base, further research is necessary, with adjustments to the soap formula, a more extended research time, and a larger sample size.

Abstract

Introduction: A healthy working environment (HWE) is essential for nurse well-being, job satisfaction, and overall healthcare quality. However, in Indonesia, the conditions of the work environment and the implementation of professional nursing practices in private hospitals remain underexplored. This scoping review aims to identify, evaluate, and propose strategies for improving HWE in private hospitals. Method: A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed from ProQuest, NCBI, CINAHL, and SpringerLink from 2013 to 2023. Three major themes emerged: Organizational Support – Policies ensuring nurse welfare, workplace safety, and professional development significantly reduce burnout and enhance job satisfaction. Fair compensation, performance assessments, human resource fulfillment, and nurse engagement in decision-making contribute to a more sustainable work environment; Management and Teamwork – Effective communication, strong leadership, and collaboration are crucial in improving nurse performance and motivation. Hospitals that emphasize nurse-physician cooperation and conflict resolution report higher retention rates and improved patient outcomes; Individual Factors – Workplace relationships, personal resilience, and professional recognition directly affect nurses' mental well-being and job commitment. However, verbal harassment, workplace violence, seniority-based discrimination, and lack of engagement opportunities negatively impact nurse retention. Result: The findings confirm that a strong HWE enhances nurse satisfaction, retention, and patient care quality. Therefore, creating and maintaining a positive work environment requires joint efforts from hospital administrators, policymakers, and healthcare professionals. Conclusion: Future strategies should prioritize comprehensive assessments, communication skills training, ethical practice reinforcement, and continuous professional development to support nurse well-being and optimize healthcare services.

Abstract

Introduction: Non-communicable diseases are chronic diseases that are the most common causes of death worldwide, including in Indonesia. The increase in the prevalence of NCDs occurs year after year and becomes a problem for national health and budget. This challenge is why the enactment of Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health was subsequently followed by the implementation of Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024 on the Implementation Regulations of Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health. This research aims to understand the prevention of non-communicable diseases outlined in this regulation. Method: The research design used a descriptive-analytical approach with a normative-juridical approach. Searching for constitutional norms was used to gather legal resources. Since the analysis was about a legal event or state, a descriptive technique was employed to present it. The case method for the research problem was used. Results: Health promotion, early detection, limiting sugar, salt, and fat intake, controlling tobacco products, physical activity, immunization, and health services are all part of the NCD control strategy, according to Article 192 of Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024 concerning the Implementation Regulation of Law No. 17 of 2023 concerning Health. Conclusion: The prevention of NCDs requires holistic and comprehensive actions,, starting with the formation of government regulations. The government is the policy executor authorized by law to implement public policies to achieve the health administration goals in Indonesia.

Abstract

Introduction: Perioperative hypothermia can cause various adverse physiological effects if not prevented. Preventing perioperative hypothermia includes using a blanket warmer, warm parenteral fluid, and operating room temperature modification. The research aimed to compare the effectiveness of blanket warmer, warm parenteral fluid, and operating room temperature modification in preventing perioperative hypothermia. Method: The research design was a true experiment with a posttest-only control design approach. The sample size was 47 for each group, with 188 samples used for the four groups (warmer blanket, warm parenteral fluids, room-modified temperature, and control). This study employed a simple random sampling technique. The instruments used included Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and an axillary thermometer. The data was collected by filling out an observation sheet, which included observations—and data analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: The highest average in preventing hypothermia was observed in the group with operating room temperature modification, with a value of 136.84. The second highest was the blanket warmer group, with an average of 95.59, followed by the warm parenteral fluid group, with an average of 87.20. The control group had the lowest average at 58.3. Conclusion: The group with operating room temperature modification showed a significant difference from the other groups, indicating that this intervention is more effective in preventing perioperative hypothermia.

Abstract

Introduction: Cognitive function in older adults often declines, particularly affecting short-term memory. Older adults may also experience difficulties in learning new information, adapting to changes, and recognizing people, places, and objects. One approach to improving cognitive function is memory games therapy. This study aims to examine the effect of memory game therapy on the cognitive function of older people. Methods: This research employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The study was conducted in September 2024 in Tuban Regency. The population consisted of 36 older adults experiencing cognitive decline, and a sample of 33 participants was selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research instrument was the "Memory Card," and cognitive function was measured using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: Most respondents were female (54.5%), and 63.6% were aged 60–74. Most participants had completed senior high school (42.5%). Before the intervention, 30.3% of respondents had severe cognitive impairment. After the intervention, 45.5% had mild impairment, and 15.2% showed normal cognitive function. Memory games therapy significantly affected cognitive function in older adults (ρ = 0.000). Conclusion: The findings of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of memory game therapy in improving the cognitive function of older adults. Therefore, it is recommended that nurses incorporate memory game therapy as an intervention in Older Adults' Integrated Service Post activities.

Abstract

Introduction: Schizophrenia patients require lifelong care, which necessitates the family's ability to provide that care. Efforts to enhance the family's ability are carried out by giving psychoeducation to improve the skills of caring for schizophrenia patients. The problem with providing psychoeducation directly is that distance and time become obstacles; an effective, efficient, and easily accessible method can be achieved by utilizing information technology through online media. This scoping review aimed to identify the effectiveness of online psychoeducation in enhancing the ability of families to care for patients with schizophrenia. Methods:  This scoping review used the PICO framework to develop article questions. (P: family of schizophrenia patients, I: psychoeducation, C: online and offline, and O: family's ability to care for schizophrenia patients). The databases were PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The selected articles were published in the last 5 years, from 2019 to 2024. The keywords were used "psychoeducation" AND "online" AND "family capacity" AND "schizophrenia". Results: The search results found 434 articles, only 14 of which met the criteria (one article from PubMed, one article from Science Direct, and 12 articles from Google Scholar). There were four online psychoeducation articles and ten direct psychoeducation articles. All articles were experimental studies. The search results found that online psychoeducation was more effective in improving the ability of families to care for schizophrenia patients. Offline psychoeducation has the disadvantage of making it more difficult to get families to attend all therapy sessions, so in general, online psychoeducation is better because it makes it easier for families to engage in the therapy process, allowing them to complete all sessions. Conclusions: Offline psychoeducation has the disadvantage of requiring family members to attend all therapy sessions, so in general, online psychoeducation is better.
