Abstract

Foodborne illness remains a significant public health concern, with Escherichia coli contamination being one of the major causes. This study aims to describe the sanitation and hygiene conditions of restaurants and the presence of E. coli in side dishes in Sunggal Village, Medan Sunggal District. A descriptive research design was employed, using observation and laboratory examination methods conducted at the Medan Health Polytechnic laboratory. The study population comprised all 18 restaurants in Sunggal Village, while fried chicken samples were selected for laboratory analysis. Data were collected through direct observation using a sanitation and hygiene checklist, as well as laboratory testing of side dish samples to detect E. coli using Endo Agar media. The results showed that most restaurants did not meet sanitation and hygiene standards, particularly in terms of food handler personal hygiene, equipment sanitation, water sources, and food selection and presentation. Laboratory findings indicated that while most samples tested negative, several samples were positive for E. coli. In conclusion, the sanitation and hygiene conditions of restaurants in Sunggal Village remain suboptimal, and there is still a risk of E. coli contamination. Strengthened guidance and supervision are therefore necessary to improve food safety in the community.

Abstract

The low participation of indigenous Papuan mothers in Family Planning (FP) programs remains a significant public health concern, influenced by cultural factors, limited health literacy, and restricted access to information. The perception that having many children symbolizes family strength leads some communities to view FP programs as a form of limiting reproduction that conflicts with traditional values. This community service initiative aims to improve the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of indigenous Papuan mothers regarding the importance of family planning through culturally grounded health education. The methods employed included interactive counseling sessions, myth clarification discussions, administration of pretest–posttest questionnaires, and the distribution of educational booklets. The activity was conducted among 30 women of reproductive age (WRA) in Doyo Baru Village, Jayapura Regency. The results demonstrated significant improvements in knowledge (p = 0.000), attitudes (p = 0.000), and perceptions (p < 0.001) following the intervention. The proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 26.7% to 86.7%, positive attitudes increased to 100%, and positive perceptions rose to 90%. This initiative proved effective in enhancing mothers’ readiness to consider the use of modern contraceptives through a contextual and participatory educational approach. It is recommended that similar programs be implemented sustainably, involving community health cadres and local leaders to strengthen social support for FP programs.

Abstract

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) are key indicators of a nation's health status. Elevated rates are often associated with unmonitored complications during pregnancy and childbirth. The Continuity of Care (CoC) approach provides a continuous care model that enables early detection of potential complications through sustained relationships between midwives and patients. This study aims to provide comprehensive midwifery care to Mrs. Y (41 years old) and Mrs. D (22 years old), encompassing the third trimester of pregnancy, labor, newborn care, postpartum care, and family planning services. The research employed a descriptive observational design using Varney’s seven-step midwifery management approach and SOAP documentation. The results showed that both patients experienced physiological pregnancies. The labor process was normal, with care focusing on pain management for Mrs. Y and comprehensive management of stages I–IV of labor for Mrs. D. The newborns were healthy, supported by the implementation of Early Initiation of Breastfeeding (EIB). The postpartum period progressed without complications, facilitated by education on nutrition and breastfeeding techniques. At the end of the care period, both patients chose long-term contraceptive methods, with Mrs. Y opting for tubectomy (MOW). In conclusion, the implementation of CoC effectively supports a safe reproductive process and minimizes the risk of complications through continuous monitoring and patient education.
