Abstract

The Indonesian government has mandated Graphic warning labels (GWLs) on cigarette packages to achieve more comprehensive tobacco control interventions. However, smoking prevalence remains a public health issue in Indonesia. This current qualitative research aimed to explore the effect of cigarette GWLs on smokers’ perceptions about smoking and cigarette packaging in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) and its influence on smoking behavior. The study participants consisted of 15 current smokers who were individually interviewed by using a semi-structured interview guide. Data were analyzed using a thematic analysis technique. Most participants perceived smoking as health-risk behavior yet lowered their risk perceptions of smoking-related diseases due to positive feelings of perceived current benefits of smoking and personal justification for smoking.  None expressed any intention to quit or showed smoking behavior changes due to GWLs exposure on cigarette packages. Participants also implicitly expressed themselves as victims willing to quit but unable and unconfident to act due to smoking addiction and other stressors. In contrast, others perceived themselves as risk-taker who enjoyed smoking. Further research is still needed to provide robust evidence on GWLs effectiveness on smoking perception and smokers’ cognitive and behavioral responses. Behavior change interventions should address positive feelings experienced and rationalization made by smokers to provide effective risk communication.

Abstract

A health department student is an individual who has a higher level of knowledge and education in the field of health. However, around 37,3% of college students in Indonesia, including health students, are smokers. Previous studies of health students showed the desire of smokers to quit smoking. The intention to quit smoking can be identified through a process of change at the contemplation stage. The research described smoking behaviour change on the contemplation stage on health department students in Kota Kupang in 2021. The type of research was qualitative with the technique of in-depth interviews. This research recruited nine health students in Kota Kupang who have willing to change their smoking behaviour. The research found that while all informants intend to quit smoking, three have not yet committed to changing actions. Four behaviour change processes played a significant role in raising awareness and forming the intention to quit among informants on the contemplation stage. Therefore, health students should not smoke to be a good agent of change for society. Behaviour change communication and health promotion need to ensure the involvement of the four change processes for smokers to be at the contemplation stage and readily moved to an action stage.

Abstract

The density of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae is a risk factor for Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever transmission. Density Figure (DF) is a measurement to determine the success of Aedes aegypti control with four leading indicators (House Index/HI, Container Index/CI, Breteau Index/BI, and Larva Free Figure/ABJ). In addition, community participation, manifested in the Mosquito Nest Eradication Movement, is also essential to prevent and control DHF. This study determined the density figure of mosquito larvae and community participation in the DHF prevention in Oesapa Urban Village, Kupang City, in 2021. This research was a descriptive research type with a total sample of 99 households. Data univariably analysis on water container material, water container type, water container cover presence, and community participation. The results showed that most of the respondents used plastic water container material (57.51%), TPA container type (55.09%), and presented uncovered water container (63.05%). The DF of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae was in the high category with HI (35.36%), CI (51.86%), BI (324.42%), and ABJ of 64.65%. Therefore, the community should be more aware and consistent to apply PSN-DHF, focusing on 3M Plus implementation to reduce the incidence of DHF.

This school is located in South Central Timor (TTS) Regency, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province. This service activity aims to increase the knowledge and practice of personal hygiene for young women during menstruation at SMP Negeri 1 Amanuban Selatan, TTS Regency, NTT. Activities included counseling, discussions, and demonstrations on personal hygiene during menstruation, distribution of personal hygiene kits and sanitary napkins to students, and initiation of the formation of Adolescent Health Cadre groups with teachers as mentors. The results of the service activities showed an increase in knowledge by 50% after counseling and a strong commitment from the students of SMP Negeri 1 Amanuban Selatan to practice personal hygiene during menstruation properly and correctly, and the willingness of teachers to guide and assist groups of adolescent health cadres formed after service activities. The active participation of students and teachers in youth health cadre groups is very important in ensuring the sustainability of the results of community service activities.

Abstract

Kanker payudara menempati urutan pertama terkait jumlah kanker terbanyak di Indonesia serta menjadi salah satu penyumbang kematian pertama akibat kanker. SADARI menjadi salah satu upaya pencegahan dan deteksi dini kanker payudara. Masalah yang seringkali dijumpai di masyarakat, khususnya perempuan, adalah kurangnya pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan kesadaran melakukan deteksi dini kanker payudara dengan cara melakukan SADARI. Masalah ini juga ditemukan pada para ibu dan remaja putri jemaat GMIT Bukit Kasih Baumata. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan pendidikan kesehatan bagi perempuan mengenai pentingnya SADARI. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam melakukan pemeriksaan payudara sendiri untuk deteksi dini kanker payudara serta menghasilkan media informasi berisi petunjuk SADARI. Sasaran kegiatan ini adalah remaja putri dan ibu-ibu di Jemaat GMIT Bukit Kasih RSS Baumata. Kegiatan yang dilaksanakan berupa pendidikan tentang pengenalan kanker payudara, SADARI, praktik SADARI, dan pemberian media promosi kesehatan terkait teknik SADARI. Kegiatan dapat dikatakan berhasil karena terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan dari ibu-ibu dan remaja putri mengenai gejala kanker payudara dan juga peningkatan keterampilan untuk mempraktekan teknik SADARI secara benar. Gereja perlu berkolaborasi dengan pihak kampus dalam memberi edukasi tentang kesehatan secara berkala pada jemaat agar terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan yang mendukung terbentuknya perilaku masyarakat yang lebih sehat. Media informasi yang tersedia di gereja dapat dioptimalkan fungsinya dengan memuat informasi-informasi terbaru seputar kesehatan sehingga menambah wawasan pembaca, khususnya jemaat.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused changes in activity patterns and life habits, which have an impact on increasing psychosocial pressure and psychological (mental) problems in adolescents, such as feelings of anxiety and loneliness, during the Covid-19 pandemic. Complaints about changes in behavior and emotions during the Covid-19 pandemic were also found in SMA Negeri 2 Kupang City students. Most students show feelings of boredom, irritability, lack of enthusiasm, and stress, as well as internet and online game dependency behavior. Students and teachers also lack knowledge about mental health and Covid-19 prevention behavior. This community service activity is carried out to increase the knowledge and abilities of students and teachers in recognizing and maintaining adolescent mental health while implementing appropriate preventive behavior during the Covid-19 pandemic. Service activities include counseling on mental health and the Covid-19 pandemic, social skills training (life skills), provision of IEC media in the form of youth mental health leaflets/posters during the Covid-19 pandemic, and provision of PHBS supporting facilities to implement the Covid-19 Pandemic behavior. The activity results showed that after counseling, there was an increase of 82.5% for students of SMAN 2 Kupang with a good level of knowledge. All students participating in community service activities can also practice skills in preventing and improving mental health and preventing the transmission of Covid-19. The school (students and teachers) should consistently educate youth mental health and health protocols to all students of SMAN 2 Kupang.

Abstract

Adolescent pregnancy remains a major issue in terms of health and social as it relates to morbidity and mortality of mothers and children. Therefore, a more holistic approach is required to support adolescent mothers to have a better quality of life. This empowering project, conducted in Oelasin Village, Southwest Rote, NTT was to empower psychologically and economically 20 adolescent mothers to have a normal life again and a chance of having equal position in household. Three days of an intensive self-esteem building program was undertaken to restore the self- esteem of the 20 participants and to improve their ability to cope with stigma and motherhood. The training consisted of three main activities, such as self-esteem materials and exercises, interpersonal counseling, and sharing experiences. The training was then followed with shredded fish (abon ikan) making training as an economic empowerment training that provided a sustainable relevant skill for the participants to generate income.  At the final stage, participants joined in eight months of mentoring on shredded fish production and promotion activities. Through the participation in this project, the 20 teenage mothers are empowered to build a better quality of life for themselves and their families, and their environment in general.

Abstract

Stunting is a serious health issue because it has short-term and long-term impacts on public health. NTT Province is the province with the highest stunting cases in Indonesia. Baadale Village, which is in the Rote Ndao Regency, NTT, is also not immune from the problem of stunting in toddlers and targets to be stunting-free by 2023. The problems found are the lack of knowledge of pregnant women and mothers of toddlers regarding environmental sanitation, inconsistent implementation of environmental sanitation and clean and healthy living behavior, poor parenting patterns for toddlers, and limited knowledge and practice of serving varied food menus in improving toddler nutrition. This community service activity is carried out to increase the knowledge and abilities of mothers of children under five years old regarding implementing environmental sanitation, parenting patterns, and serving a variety of food menus to reduce stunting rates. The activities include health education and providing animal protein assistance. The activity results showed an increase in knowledge of 60% in pregnant women and mothers of toddlers after the counseling. Participants were also willing to apply and pass on the knowledge gained to other pregnant women and mothers of toddlers in Baadale Village. Continuous assistance and education need to be carried out to continue to encourage the will and ability of the community, especially pregnant women and mothers of toddlers, to maintain a healthy environment and implement good parenting patterns in terms of feeding, health care, and personal hygiene for children under five years old.
