Background: Good quality of health care is important for maternal and infants health. Regular antenatal visit can assist in identifying and reducing risks of mother and infant during pregnancy. This study aimed to examine the associations between education, knowledge, attitude, and maternal intention on antenatal care (ANC) visit. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out at Ridos hospital, Medan, North Sumatera, in 2017. A sample of 89 pregnant women was selected by accidental sampling. The dependent variable was ANC visit. The independent variables were education, knowledge, and attitude. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by linear multiple regression. Results: Maternal intention to do ANC visit increased with high education (b= 0.36; p= 0.001), knowledge (b= 0.48; p= 0.001), and attitude (b = 0.24; p= 0.001). Conclusion:Maternal intention to do ANC visit increased with high education, knowledge, and attitude.
Pos Pembinaan Terpadu Penyakit Tidak Menular (POSBINDU PTM) menjadi salah satu strategi penting dalam mengendalikan trend penyakit tidak menular yang terus meningkat. Puskesmas Helvetia merupakan salah satu puskesmas di Kota Medan dengan persentase kelurahan yang menjalankan Posbindu PTM terendah yaitu sebesar 28,57%. Pada tahun 2016, cakupan kegiatan Posbindu PTM di wilayah Puskesmas Helvetia sangat rendah yaitu dibawah 1%. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh karakteristik organisasi (perilaku petugas kesehatan, perilaku kader, fasilitas pelayanan, kegiatan Posbindu PTM) terhadap pemanfaatan POSBINDU PTM di wilayah Puskesmas Helvetia.Penelitian dilaksanakan di Kelurahan Helvetia Tengah dan Helvetia Timur Kecamatan Medan Helvetia Kota Medan. Jenis penelitian adalah penelitian survai dengan tipe explanatory research. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah masyarakat berusia 15 tahun keatas. Sampel berjumlah 100 orang yang diambil dengan teknik Proportionate Stratified Random Sampling. Data primer diperoleh melalui wawancara langsung dengan menggunakan kuesioner. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah regresi linear berganda.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perilaku petugas kesehatan (p value= 0,000), perilaku kader (p value= 0,000), fasilitas pelayanan (p value= 0,000) berpengaruh terhadap pemanfaatan Posbindu PTM, sedangkan kegiatan Posbindu PTM (p value= 0,413) tidak berpengaruh terhadap pemanfaatan Posbindu PTM. Diperkirakan perilaku petugas kesehatan mempunyai kontribusi yang paling besar (B= 0,636) terhadap pemanfaatan POSBINDU PTM. Kemampuan variabel perilaku petugas kesehatan, perilaku kader dan fasilitas pelayanan untuk menjelaskan pemanfaatan POSBINDU PTM sebesar 91%. Secara umum pemanfaatan POSBINDU PTM akan semakin meningkat apabila perilaku petugas kesehatan, perilaku kader dan fasilitas pelayanan ditingkatkan.Disarankan dalam upaya peningkatan pemanfaatan pelayanan Posbindu PTM agar meningkatkan advokasi dan sosialisasi Posbindu PTM, meningkatkan kerjasama dengan lintas sektor terkait, mengganti kader yang tidak aktif, melatih kader Posbindu PTM, melengkapi sarana dan prasarana Posbindu PTM sesuai standard, membentuk Posbindu PTM disetiap kelurahan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Helvetia, melakukan monitoring dan evaluasi kegiatan Posbindu PTM secara berkala serta pemerintah daerah diharapkan memberikan dukungan dana untuk menunjang keberlangsungan Posbindu PTM.
Background:The health care services for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH; hereinafter is referred to as PLWHA) at Polyclinic of Voluntary Counselling and Testing (hereinafter is referred to as VCT) and Care, Support and Treatment (hereinafter is referred to as CST) are not optimally utilized because of the large number of Follow-Up Loss by PLWHA. The utilization of the services in 2018 was only 47% of the determined target of 90%. The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of individual characteristics such as age, sex, education level, marital status, and perception of HIV/AIDS negative stigma on the utilization of health services for HIV/AIDS at Polyclinic of VCT and CST. Subjects and Method: This is a cross-sectional study. The population was all visitors at the Polyclinic who were diagnosed with HIV not later than March, 2018. Sixty eight patients were selected by using total sampling technique. The independent variables consisted of individual characteristics (age, sex, education level, marital status) and perception of HIV/AIDS negative stigma, whereas the dependent variables were the utilization of VCT and CST Polyclinic. The data were collected through questionnaires and were analyzed by multiple logistic regression method. Results: the perception of high negative stigma of HIV/AIDS has led PLWHA to underutilize the health services of VCT and CST Polyclinic (OR= 18.20; 95%CI= 3.89 to 85.19; p< 0.001). The male PLWHA underutilized the health care services at VCT and CST Polyclinic (OR= 4.91; 95%CI=1.19 to 20.23; p= 0.028). Conclusion: the perception of high negative stigma of HIV/AIDS and being a male PLWHA allowed the underutilization of the health services at VCT and CST Polyclinic.
This activity was motivated by the low economic status of the village community, which is located far from the center of the district capital. On the other hand, there is potential for the development of kelor (Moringa) in the village. This community service was carried out with the aim of improving the community's economy through Moringa agribusiness in Pilangrejo Village, Nglipar District, Gunung Kidul Regency. This activity was carried out in January-June 2020, in Danyangan Hamlet, Pilangrejo Village, Nglipar District, Gunungkidul Regency. This activity was attended by the people of Danyangan Hamlet, both men and women. The male participants were those who make a living as farmers. While the female participants were housewives who do not have any permanent livelihood. The number of primary participants were 10 people who were community leaders in Pilangrejo Village. The implementation stages of activities include kelor planting and seedling, training on post-harvest processing, and providing production tool. The implementation of this activity is based on subsystems in agribusiness, namely the upstream (input) subsystem, on-farm subsystem and downstream subsystem. The results of this activity can be said that the piloting of Moringa agribusiness can be one solution that can be done in an effort to improve the economy of the community in Danyangan Hamlet, Pilangrejo Village, Gunung Kidul Regency. The benefits that can be obtained in this activity include the sale of Moringa powder and the use of Moringa as the main menu in the community's food pattern.
