Abstract

Hypertension is a major global public health challenge that disproportionately affects elderly populations and contributes significantly to non-communicable disease burdens. In Indonesia, particularly in South Sulawesi, hypertension prevalence among older adults continues to rise, while effective control remains constrained by structural, cultural, and organizational factors. This study examined the influence of community-based health promotion on hypertension control among the elderly in South Sulawesi from a management perspective. Using a quantitative design, the study analyzed how participation in local health promotion initiatives, including Posyandu Lansia and community health cadre programs, affects blood pressure control, medication adherence, and lifestyle modification. The findings indicate that community-based health promotion plays a significant role in improving hypertension outcomes. Higher participation levels were associated with lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, improved treatment adherence, and healthier lifestyle behaviors. The study also highlights the managerial importance of community-based initiatives grounded in decentralization and participatory governance. By leveraging social networks and shared leadership, these programs strengthen health system reach and sustainability. Overall, effective hypertension control among the elderly depends on strategic management practices that align organizational capacity with community engagement.

Abstract

Population ageing presents increasing challenges for maintaining health and quality of life among elderly people living in the community. This study aims to provide an overview of physical and psychological health conditions and to examine their impact on the quality of life of community-dwelling elderly individuals. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed involving elderly participants aged 60 years and above. Data were collected through structured face-to-face interviews using validated instruments to assess physical health conditions, psychological health status, and quality of life across multiple domains. The results indicate a high prevalence of chronic physical conditions, particularly hypertension and musculoskeletal disorders, alongside a substantial proportion of elderly individuals experiencing psychological distress, especially depressive symptoms. Overall quality of life was found to be moderate, with lower scores observed in physical and psychological domains compared to social and environmental domains. Both physical and psychological health conditions were significantly associated with quality of life; however, psychological health emerged as a stronger and more consistent predictor. Elderly individuals with better psychological well-being reported higher quality of life even in the presence of chronic physical illness, indicating an interaction between physical and psychological health. These findings highlight the importance of adopting integrated, community-based health approaches that address both physical and mental health needs.

Abstract

Maintaining health and independence in the elderly population is a growing global concern due to increasing life expectancy and associated functional decline. This study investigates the role of family and social support in promoting autonomy and well-being among older adults. A mixed-method approach was employed, integrating survey data and qualitative interviews to assess levels of social participation, family involvement, and self-reported independence. Results indicate a clear positive relationship between social engagement and independence, with higher participation levels corresponding to greater functional ability. Moreover, the combined effects of strong family support and active community participation were found to significantly enhance overall well-being scores. These findings suggest that social and familial networks act synergistically to support the elderly, providing emotional, cognitive, and practical resources that promote autonomy. The study contributes to the understanding of non-medical determinants of elderly health, highlighting the necessity of holistic approaches that integrate family involvement and community-based interventions. Implications include the development of policies and programs aimed at enhancing social participation opportunities and family engagement to sustain independence and improve quality of life. Future research should examine longitudinal impacts and intervention effectiveness across diverse cultural contexts to strengthen strategies for elderly care and support.

Abstract

Population ageing poses significant challenges for health systems, particularly in ensuring effective health care for older adults within daily life contexts. This study aimed to analyze factors related to elderly health care in daily life among community-dwelling older adults by integrating individual, social, and environmental dimensions. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed involving 240 elderly participants aged 60 years and above. Data were collected using structured questionnaires measuring socio-demographic characteristics, health status, daily health care practices, social support, and environmental conditions. Descriptive statistics and multivariate regression analyses were used to examine associations between variables. The results indicated that overall engagement in daily health care practices was moderate, with higher adherence observed in medication use and personal hygiene, and lower engagement in physical activity and routine health monitoring. Multivariate analysis revealed that family social support, self-rated health, accessibility of health services, educational level, and age were significantly associated with daily health care practices. Family social support emerged as the strongest predictor. These findings highlight that elderly health care in daily life is influenced by the interaction of personal capacity, social relationships, and environmental accessibility. Strengthening family-based support, improving health literacy, and enhancing access to community and health services are essential to promote healthy ageing and sustain daily health care practices among older adults.
