Abstract

Introduction: Children with Down syndrome are more vulnerable to sexual abuse because of cognitive limitations, dependence on caregivers, and difficulty identifying inappropriate behavior. Early, developmentally appropriate sex education is therefore important as a preventive measure. Parents, as primary educators, play a central role, though their sociodemographic backgrounds, knowledge, and attitudes may affect how sex education is delivered.Objectives: This study examined the relationships between parents’ age, gender, education level, and knowledge with parental attitudes toward providing sex education to children with Down syndrome in Indonesia.Methods: A cross-sectional correlational design was used with 32 parents of children with Down syndrome selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires on parental knowledge and attitudes toward sex education. Pearson correlation analysis was applied after normality and linearity assumptions were met. Descriptive data were presented as mean ± standard deviation.Results: The mean parental knowledge score was 19.72 ± 2.57 out of 23, indicating a sufficient level. The mean attitude score was 34.75 ± 3.72, indicating a moderate attitude. Parental knowledge showed a significant small-to-moderate positive correlation with attitudes toward providing sex education (r = 0.357, p = 0.045). In contrast, age, gender, and education level were not significantly associated with parental attitudes.Conclusions: Greater parental knowledge was associated with more positive attitudes toward sex education for children with Down syndrome. Improving parental knowledge through structured, culturally appropriate education and nursing-based counseling may strengthen preventive efforts against sexual violence.

Abstract

Introduction: Nurse supervisors play a critical role in healthcare, balancing direct patient care with administrative responsibilities. Their high-stress work environment increases the risk of physical and mental health challenges, which can negatively impact job performance. Identifying stressors and implementing effective interventions are essential to improving nurses’ well-being and maintaining high-quality patient care.Objectives: This study examines work-related stress levels among nurse supervisors at Bangli Regional General Hospital. Methods: Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 99 participants selected through stratified random sampling. The New Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ), a validated 63-item instrument, was used to assess stress levels, and data were analyzed using univariate methods. Results: Most nurse supervisors reported low stress levels, suggesting generally manageable workplace conditions. However, a notable proportion experienced moderate-to-severe stress, indicating the need for targeted support. Key stressors likely include high workloads, emotional demands, and insufficient rewards or recognition. To address these concerns, hospitals should enhance communication between staff and management to ensure nurses feel heard and supported. Additionally, improving reward systems—such as performance-based incentives or recognition programs—could boost morale and reduce burnout. Conclusions: Regular stress screenings should also be implemented to identify at-risk individuals early. By adopting these measures, healthcare institutions can foster a healthier work environment, ultimately benefiting both nurses and patient care outcomes. Further research could explore specific stress triggers and evaluate the effectiveness of workplace interventions.

Abstract

Introduction: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most frequently reported musculoskeletal disorders among nurses, commonly associated with repetitive physical demands, non-ergonomic postures, and prolonged standing or bending during patient care. These conditions may reduce functional capacity and interfere with work quality.Objectives: To examine the association between workload and muscle flexibility with the incidence of low back pain among nurses at Moh. Ridwan Meukarsa Level II Hospital.Methods: This study applied a cross-sectional design involving 129 nurses who met the inclusion criteria and were recruited using total sampling. Data were gathered through a workload questionnaire, the Toe Touch Test to assess muscle flexibility, and the Pain and Distress Scale to measure lower back pain. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression to identify the most influential variables. Ethical approval for this research was granted by RS TK. II Moh. Ridwan Meukarsa Jakarta, under letter number Sket/249/VII/2025, issued on July 21, 2025.Results: A substantial number of nurses experienced low back pain. Statistical findings showed a significant association between workload and LBP (p < 0.001), and between muscle flexibility and LBP (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis confirmed that high workload and reduced flexibility independently contributed to increased LBP risk.Conclusions: Workload and muscle flexibility were significantly associated with the incidence of LBP. Implementing workload regulation strategies, ergonomic improvements, and routine flexibility exercises is recommended to support musculoskeletal health and enhance nursing work performance.

Abstract

Introduction: Mental disorders affect thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, often resulting in emotional disturbances and reduced quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions, including occupational therapy, play an important role in mental health recovery. Eco-printing–based occupational therapy offers a pleasant, stress-free activity that stimulates cognitive, motor, and emotional functions. However, empirical evidence regarding its effectiveness in improving emotional well-being and quality of life remains limited.Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effect of eco-printing–based occupational therapy on emotional well-being and quality of life among patients with mental disorders at the Pondok Lali Jiwa Raga Foundation, Wangon, Banyumas.Methods: A quantitative study with a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted. A total of 57 participants were recruited using purposive sampling. Emotional status was assessed using the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), and quality of life was measured with the Mental Health Quality of Life (MHQoL) questionnaire. The intervention was implemented over seven days and consisted of ten eco-printing–based occupational therapy sessions. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.Results: Significant differences were observed between pretest and posttest scores. Emotional well-being improved significantly after the intervention (p < 0.001), and quality of life also showed a significant increase (p < 0.001).Conclusions: Eco-printing–based occupational therapy significantly improved emotional well-being and quality of life among patients with mental disorders. These findings indicate that eco-printing may serve as an effective occupational therapy modality in mental health care. However, the absence of a control group and the short intervention duration may limit the generalizability of the results.
