<![CDATA[Patient safety is a fundamental concept in providing health services and it is critical that health care facilities consider it. Negligence in the application of patient safety will lead to patient safety incidents. The individual factors of medical staff have a significant influence on the implementation of patient safety. The attitude of medical staff can affect the culture of patient safety because being unprofessional will cause problems in providing quality care, encourage bad events and medical errors, and ultimately reduce patient satisfaction. Organizational support also has a role in the attitude and behavior of medical staff. There are already policies in the form of regulations from the Minister of Health, standard operating procedures, and training for medical staff. However, there are still many patient safety incidents that occurred. There is also medical staff who are not aware of the importance of reporting so that patient safety incidents are not recorded. The study was conducted in 12 Primary Health Care (PHC) in Kuningan Regency. The research method used is quantitative analysis with a cross-sectional design using a questionnaire. The research data was taken using proportional stratified random sampling to 200 medical staff in 12 PHC in Kuningan Regency. The questionnaire consists of 3 parts regarding professionalism, patient safety culture, and organizational support. The results showed that professionalism had a positive and significant impact on patient safety culture (p-value <0.001), and Organizational support is a quasi-moderating variable on the effect of professionalism on patient safety culture (p-value <0.001).]]>

<![CDATA[The study determined the effectiveness of Observation Response and Self-Approach (ORSA) in improving the grammatical competence of Grade 7 learners of Looc Integrated School. This study used the quasi- experimental design and pre-test/post-test questionnaire. ORSA was used as an approach to teaching students grammar, including WHquestions, verbs, and prepositions. This was limited to selected Grade 7 students with the lowest grammatical competence. The ORSA study was taken from the name of the author itself, a new way to assess students through positive assessments that explores the learner's innate talents and skills and to reassure and encourage the development of strength in students. It is also centered on the pedagogical approaches and emphasizes the use of positive assessment as to its unique feature in evaluating students’ performance utilizing non-threatening assessments that motivated the students to develop self- efficacy and eventually become an independent learner whose competencies acquired are internationally aligned and acceptable even during this new normal in the time of the pandemic. The idea of ORSA can be anchored on Locke’s idea of reflection. Before applying the approaches, students got lower scores. After being exposed to the approaches, their mean scores increased. It can be implied that through the use of ORSA, the students think and question what they have learned through the persuasion of the teacher; they believe in themselves and in what they have learned. ORSA and K to 12, the two groups of student- participants havedifferent levels of grammatical competence. As observed in the obtained means, students exposed to ORSA achievedhigher grammatical competence as compared to students exposed to K to 12 teaching approach. This connotes that ORSA is proven effective in enhancing the grammatical competence of the students.]]>

<![CDATA[With the onset of the pandemic, no face-to-face instruction is seemingly the most pressing problem faced today in schools. The acquisition of required skills has been challenged by the digital divide and limited access to quality and equitable higher education. This scenario has pushed LSPU for further flexibility in rendering its services anchored on its vision of becoming a center of technological innovation that promotes interdisciplinary learning, sustainable utilization of resources, collaboration, and partnership with the community and stakeholders. Hence, this quantitative, non-experimental research with observational approach utilized predictive design explored the LSPU's delivery and assessment of flexible learning based on the outcomes-based education. The research instrument with an excellent reliability coefficient of .962. was programmed in the google form and the extracted data from 5,314 respondents were analyzed using summary statistics and regression analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to treat the data. It was found out that there is a high extent of implementation of sound assessment practices that support student learning. The respondents agreed that the level of teacher’s assessment practices and support to student learning are promising and attuned to the requirements of flexible learning. The University’s migration plan really worked for the faculty and students. Majority of the respondents are motivated and engaged in flexible learning. The study found that 55.1% variance in the effectiveness of the implementation of flexible learning is positively explained by teacher’s assessment practices and support to students, student’s attainment of cognitive learning outcomes, student’s engagement and motivation, and student’s self-assessed academic performance during the new normal.]]>

<![CDATA[During pandemic events, we experienced heavy burden on our medical labor worldwide. This study too concentrated on the problem of limited medical staff and tackling patient demands, while still keeping motivation up within the workforce. This study aimed to understand concerns and find solutions for 2021 as well as future fiscal years of proposed manpower cuts at United States Air Force Military Treatment Facilities (USAF MTF). A significant pending proposal would cut a shocking 4,684 USAF medical positions worldwide. This study’s purpose was to shield light on employee and stakeholder concerns to provide practical solutions mitigating impacts, maintaining staff productivity, motivation, and job satisfaction. It then prioritized the current healthcare services. Theory and pervious literature indicated manpower cuts lead to social effects by reducing recognition, open communication, and motivation for provider staff as well as reducing productivity and quality care. Human Relations (HR) and Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene theories were applied to developing data collection instruments in this qualitative study in order to derive solutions for continued quality care and staff motivation in preparation of manpower cuts. Interviews were conducted with 10 provider staff and 10 USAF consultants then analyzed to inform a focused solution-driven discussion with 10 MTF leaders. Analysis led to focus group findings, which were then summarized to highlight practical solutions and recommendations in areas of manpower, support, resources, innovation, communication and motivation. Key implications for businesses and practitioners found that manpower cuts can become an essential part of any business environment but there are ways to mitigate these effects and stay motivated and productive by focusing on employee’s needs, innovations and prioritizing services.]]>
