Huge number of students (santri), crowded dormitories, shared lavatories, limited healthcare facilities, and intense social interactions increase the risk of transmitting infectious diseases within the facilities. This study aims to provide initial assessment of the history of infectious diseases and the spread of infectious diseases among santri living in Pondok Pesantren before conducting training and intervention related to infectious diseases prevention and control programs. It is a quantitative study using a descriptive analysis approach conducted in July-September 2022 at Pondok Pesantren Assalafiyah 2 Mlangi. A non-probability sampling with total sampling of 848 santri was used. The data were collected using self-administered questionnaires developed on Google Form and imported to Microsoft Excel for further data analysis. The results indicate that the majority of the santri have a history of infectious diseases (90.7%) during their time living in Pondok Pesantren. The most common infectious diseases found were influenza (55.40%), scabies (20.94%), conjunctivitis (6.50%), varicella (6.11%), herpes simplex (2.21%), tuberculosis (1.39%), and measles (1.13%). During the COVID-19 pandemic, a total of 21.11% of the students had been exposed to COVID-19 and 98.47% of the students had received vaccinations. Considering these findings, it is essential for the staff and students living in Pondok Pesantren to understand the steps to prevent the occurrence of infectious diseases and be able to identify and provide initial treatment to stop the transmission of the disease. The development of digital health intervention using a website or application will be implemented to help the students report and consult case findings to medical experts.","PeriodicalId":251344,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Empowerment for Health","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126324718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Need assessment was conducted to assess the baseline data of nutritional status and unhealthy lifestyle. Health literacy was performed to improve nutrition knowledge among participants. Advocacy was implemented to assist the production of regulation documents to support the program. Healthy behavior practices were implemented to improve the health promoting behavior among participants. The results show that there are improvements on targeted outcomes on the initiative (policy documents establishment), participation (1,904 respondents of need assessment, 300 participants of webinars, and 1,700 YouTube views), and knowledge level (p<0.05). The university leaders show a strong commitment in the policy making to support I-HELP U since UHAMKA hold a vision to be a prophetic teaching university.

One of the efforts that can be made against the waste problem is reprocessing it into useful materials. PKK is a family welfare coaching group that can turn waste into media material for educational games for PAUD students through self-help groups. The goal of this community service and research is to empower and assist PKK activist groups in optimizing waste as an educational game tool for children from a young age. The method used is a quantitative and qualitative approach. The quantitative data are in the form of demographic data, knowledge, and skills. In contrast, the qualitative data comes from structured interviews and FGDs with a grid of questions about waste, the efforts that have been made, and the benefits of recycling the waste as an educational game tool. The measuring tool used is a questionnaire about waste knowledge and a waste processing checklist sheet. The target of this activity was 25 PKK groups at RW 02 of Merjosari Subdistrict, Lowokwaru District, Malang City, and it was carried out in June-August 2019. This Gempa Perekat activity consisted of health education, focus group discussion, and forming self-help groups. The result of this activity is that the respondent's knowledge increases after receiving health education about waste management (0.000). There is an average skill in processing waste into a good educational game tool (73) among respondents, and they stated that all this time, waste has been disposed of, put in plastic bags, and burned. Furthermore, respondents hoped that there would be waste management that could be useful for PAUD students by processing waste into educational games. The conclusion of this activity is the Gempa Perekat program as a form of intervention in dealing with waste in the city by empowering the PKK as a self-help group in making educational game tools for PAUD students from waste.","PeriodicalId":251344,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Empowerment for Health","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126780282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Policies regarding JKN should be known and understood. This study aimed to know the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour towards health insurance that will be useful for stakeholders to develop public policies. This study was conducted in Umbulsari B sub-village in Sumberharjo, Prambanan, Yogyakarta, the lowest area of JKN participation based on Sleman HDSS data. We used a cross-sectional design study among 91 respondents who filled out a paper sheet questionnaire that consisted of five sections; demographic characteristics and insurance participation, knowledge, attitudes, actions, and satisfaction with the JKN program. Then, the community service activities; coordination with local stakeholders; JKN participation identification using CHIKA; educational media production and publication. Local stakeholders said that awareness about JKN is low. CHIKA data identification from 529 ID shows that 78.1% had become JKN participants, and 73.3% were \"active\". The respondents answered most of each knowledge point correctly (score >90%).

Posyandu cadres play an important role in empowering mothers through education and counseling mothers about the good practice of feeding infants and children. However, a preliminary survey shows that most mothers do not receive education and counseling from cadres in posyandu. Several factors behind that are low self-efficacy among cadres to carry out education or counseling, cadres feeling confused with educational content, and cadres feeling that many mothers are busy workers. The evaluation aims to assess the effectiveness of Emotional Demonstration for cadres in Bantul Regency using Easy Evaluation. Data were collected from 126 cadres who participated in the Emotional Demonstration program. Data collection was carried out by participatory observation, interview, and feedback form. An Easy Evaluation assessment was determined for each criterion, among others 1) Practice the roleplay according to the order of the emotional demonstration programs is Very Good 2) Apply communication skills according to the PAMM technique (Pertanyaan Terbuka; Afirmasi dan Apresiasi; Mendengarkan dan Merefleksikan; dan Menyimpulkan) is Good 3) Deliver key message is Very Good 4) Applying effective time management is Good.

A 6-question survey to assess how well the canteen staff retained knowledge from the provided food safety training were performed. From the survey, it was obtained the mean score for each indicator as follows: 3.32 for food taste, 3.22 for menu variation, 3.48 for canteen hospitality, 3.43 for canteen cleanliness, and 3.14 for food prices. The staff gave responses that the training was useful to increase foodservice quality and board the healthy food knowledge of canteen staff. Food traffic light systems that were placed in front of the counters could help customers to choose healthier foods. The results of HACCP training showed that all participants got more than half of the questions right. The responses of surveyed staff members suggest that the training was useful in increasing food service quality as well as food safety knowledge and practices of canteen staff.
