Problems with the care process of people with mental disorders by family caregivers never lead to concrete solutions. Family support is one of the determinants of the successful recovery of a patient's condition because it reflects the family's efforts in accompanying patients undergoing their daily lives. This study aims to determine various factors that correlate with the support of family caregiver for family members suffering from mental disorders. Families who accompanied the patients while undergoing outpatient care were sampled, totaling 144, determined using a non probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method. The results showed the majority of family support for sufferers is still lacking, there is a relationship of age, level of education, knowledge and work status with family support but there is no correlation between sex caregiver with support provided by the family. It is recommended that families pay more attention to sufferers in biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects.
Changes and advancement of people daily living have extremely complex consequences, thereby constructive adaptation processes are necessary in dealing with it. However, not all individuals have the ability to constructively adapt to a change so that it can ultimately cause mental disorders. Exploration of the family burden as a support system for the patients is very important because of the high dependence of the patients to their family in dealing with the disease. Even though it is also a responsibility for the family members to be concerned of the patients condition. This study aims to explore the burden of a family in caring for a family member who is mentally disturbed. A phenomenological approach was applied in this qualitative research. In-depth interviews were concluded after obtaining data saturation. Data saturation was acquired after interviewing 5 families of patients. Data analysis conducted using the Collaizi method which resulted in four themes, namely: The burden experienced since the beginning of patients 'caring, raging emotions as n negative yet hidden impact of caring, the economic problems due to costs needed to treat the patients and the feeling of failure in caring which disrupt the treatment progress. It was concluded that treating mentally disordered patients could also burden the families, notably the psychology aspect. Therefore the cooperation of the family is a crucial matter to provide in caring for the sufferers.
BACKGROUND: Iron deficiency is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia and is a health problem for children in developing countries. School-age children are susceptible to iron deficiency because children’s growth and development require iron. Although iron is needed for children’s growth and development, iron also plays a role in cognitive function. Many factors cause iron deficiency in children. AIM: This study aims to determine the most dominant factor causing iron deficiency in elementary school children. METHODS: The design of this study was case-control, with a sample of elementary school children aged 9–12 years in the Tuah Negeri Subdistrict. After examining the serum iron, children were grouped into two groups, namely, iron deficiency and normal. Each group consists of 85 children, and the total sample is 170 children. Measurement of serum iron levels was done by spectrophotometric method, while data on children’s characteristics were obtained through questionnaires. In addition, nutritional status measurements were also carried out to determine whether the child was stunted, measurements based on TB/U, and Z-score was calculated using Anthro 1.02 software. Finally, the data were analyzed by univariate, bivariate, and multivariate using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 22. RESULTS: Based on the child characteristics data, 60% of children aged >10–12 years, 54.1% were female, and 23.5% of children were stunted. Data on the characteristics of parents obtained 67.6% of mothers and 74.1% of fathers with low education; 84.1% of mothers and 55.3% of fathers work as farmers, and 54.7% have low economic status. Bivariate results showed that two characteristic variables, namely, economic status (p = 0.003) and nutritional status (p < 0.001), were significantly related to the incidence of iron deficiency in children. The results of multivariate analysis showed that children with low economic status were at risk of 2.361 times (p = 0.011) of having an iron deficiency while stunting children were at risk of 6.785 times (p < 0.001) of having iron deficiency. CONCLUSION: Stunting is the dominant factor associated with iron deficiency in elementary school children in Tuah Negeri Sub-district.
Forum Pengrajin Batik Purbalingga (FPBP )merupakan kelompok batik pertama di Purbalingga yang saat ini anggotanya berjumlah 170 orang pembatik. Keberadaan FPBP yang masih bersifat informal dan belum memiliki ketetapan hukum yang kuat menjadikannya tidak berkembang secara optimal. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan pendampingan terhadap FPBP dalam mengelola sekaligus menguatkan kelompok, agar FPBP dapat berkembang secara lebih optimal. Berdasarkan analisis dan diskusi dengan FPBP, diketahui permasalahan prirotas yang perlu segera diberikan alternatif solusi untuk pemecahan masalah yaitu melalui 1).Penyuluhan dan pendampingan penguatan aspek pengelolaan organisasi dan dinamika kelompok; 2). Penyuluhan dan sosialisasi mengenai koperasi dalam paradigma baru dan 3). Pendampingan rintisan pembentukan koperasi batik. Hasil pelaksanaan kegoatan ini menunjukkan bahwa anggota FPBP secara umum sangat mendukung terbentuknya Koperasi batik. Rintisan Koperasi batik FPBP di wujudkan melalui dibukanya gerai penjualan batik Purbalingga Wastra Lingga. Bantuan modal awal barang dagangan berupa bahan baku produksi batik (kain mori, malam dan bahan pewarna) menjadi langkah awal rintisan koperasi batik, yang disediakan bagi para pembatik anggota FPBP. Dalam pelaksanaan kegiatan ini, pengurus FPBB diberi penyuluhan mengenai perkoperasian dan pendampingan dalam merancang anggaran dasar dan anggaran rumah tangga (AD/ART) Koperasi Batik. Rintisan koperasi batik berupa penjualan bahan baku batik di Wastra Lingga telah menunjukkan adanya kegiatan transaksi yang cukup signifikan.
