Karya Kesehatan Siwalima (KKS) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal committed to the dissemination of knowledge, research findings, and evidence-based practices in the field of health sciences. The journal aims to advance interdisciplinary perspectives and promote innovative approaches to improving health outcomes at the individual, family, and community levels, both nationally and globally. KKS serves as a scholarly platform for academics, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to publish high-quality original research articles, systematic reviews, case studies, and theoretical analyses that contribute to the advancement of health sciences and the development of healthcare services. The journal places strong emphasis on research-based practice, community-oriented interventions, and the integration of science, technology, and humanistic care in addressing contemporary health challenges. In particular, Karya Kesehatan Siwalima highlights the importance of contextual and culturally sensitive approaches, especially within archipelagic and multicultural settings such as Indonesia, while maintaining relevance within the broader global health discourse. The journal also supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially those related to health and well-being, through the publication of empirical studies, innovative models, and conceptual frameworks. Managed by the Faculty of Health, Universitas Kristen Indonesia Maluku, Karya Kesehatan Siwalima publishes articles derived from both research projects and community service activities. These works encompass a wide range of themes, including health education, counseling, community engagement and socialization programs, as well as evaluations of development initiatives, survey-based studies, and experimental research in the health sector.

Abstract

The WHO reported that approximately 39.0 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2022, with 1.3 million new infections and 630,000 deaths due to HIV-related illnesses in the same year. One of the factors contributing to risky dating behavior among adolescents is a lack of knowledge about HIV/AIDS, leading to limited understanding of its consequences. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between HIV/AIDS knowledge and dating behavior among eleventh-grade students. A quantitative descriptive correlational method with a cross-sectional approach was used. The sample consisted of 70 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The research instruments included the HIV-KQ-18 questionnaire and the SBQ, both of which have been tested for validity and reliability. The results showed that 17.1% of respondents had low knowledge levels, while 18.6% engaged in risky dating behaviors. The Spearman’s rho test indicated a significant relationship between HIV/AIDS knowledge and dating behavior (p = 0.000; r = 0.697). Thus, there is a strong and positive relationship between HIV/AIDS knowledge and adolescent dating behavior. These findings imply the need for structured reproductive health education programs in secondary schools, such as regular counseling sessions and integration of HIV/AIDS content into the curriculum, to reduce risky dating behaviors among adolescents.

Abstract

Adolescents are the next generation who are currently in an important transitional stage toward adulthood. At this phase, they are highly vulnerable to various influences, including a lack of knowledge about reproductive health, the risk of stunting, and the impacts of early marriage. In response to these conditions, a community service activity was conducted at the Auditorium of STIKes Gunung Maria Tomohon, Tomohon City, with the aim of providing health education to students so that they can better understand the importance of adolescents’ role in preventing stunting and the negative impacts of early marriage. The program was carried out in three stages: planning in collaboration with the BKKBN team and the school, delivering interactive health education using engaging media, and evaluation through a question-and-answer session. A total of 164 students enthusiastically participated in the activity, and the discussion results revealed that reproductive health and early marriage were their primary concerns. It is expected that through continuous education, adolescents will be able to make wiser decisions for their future and contribute to stunting prevention within their communities. Programs like this are essential to be held regularly and to reach more schools.

Abstract

Gastritis is one of the diseases of the digestive system with a high prevalence of recurrence. Irregular lifestyles, academic stress, and low self-management skills are the main factors that trigger relapse. The Chronic Care Model (CCM) has a conceptual framework in the management of chronic diseases including gastritis. This study aims to analyze factors related to gastritis recurrence based on the CCM approach in nursing students. This study used  a cross-sectional quantitative design  with a total of 30 respondents in young adulthood. The results showed that most of the respondents (86.7%) experienced a recurrence of gastritis in the last six months. The Fisher's Exact Test showed that the self-management support subscale had a significant relationship with gastritis recurrence (p = 0.048), while the other subscales (delivery system design, decision support, clinical information system, organization of care, and community resources) showed an insignificant association (p > 0.05), but had a strong association in the high score category. The conclusion of this study shows that the higher the student's self-management ability, the lower the risk of gastritis recurrence.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) remain a major health problem in the community, especially in the Papua Highlands. The prevalence of ARI among toddlers in Papua is among the highest in Indonesia, partly due to the community's lack of knowledge about ARI prevention and the implementation of Clean and Healthy Living Behaviours (PHBS). This community service activity aims to increase public knowledge about the prevention of respiratory tract infections in Waima Village, Popuoba District, Jayawijaya Regency. The method used is health education through counselling with slides and leaflets, accompanied by discussions and question and answer sessions. The target audience for this activity is the communities of Waima and Popuoba villages. The results of the activity show an increase in the community's understanding of the definition of ISPA, risk factors, modes of transmission, and efforts to prevent ISPA through the implementation of Clean and Healthy Living Behaviours (PHBS). The community showed enthusiasm and active participation during the event. This activity is expected to contribute to changes in public health behaviour, thereby reducing the risk of acute respiratory infections in the region.
