Abstract

Health is one of the focuses of attention in every country, because having a healthy community can certainly create a productive society, and by always getting used to a clean and healthy lifestyle the community can support government programs to form Superior Human Resources (HR) and highly educated. This study uses a qualitative method with the aim that there is greater spontaneity and better adaptation of the interaction between researchers and research sources in obtaining answers to research questions. There are various data collection methods in this qualitative research, namely observation, textual analysis and interviews (individual or group). So the results of this study explain that the formation of clean and healthy living behavior from an early age is very important to implement, so that gradually this activity will become a good habit of life and become an initial capital in the process of human growth and development in the future. The application of PHBS indicators as a behavior of people's lives is very important, but other indicators are no less important in the formation of healthy living behavior so as to create a high degree of public health. One part of PHBS is washing hands with soap before and after doing an activity. Good hand washing is to follow the 7 steps of cleaning hands according to the correct procedure to kill germs that cause disease. On the other hand, outreach to the community is a strategic effort to empower every member of the household to always apply a clean and healthy lifestyle, so that the community is able to help themselves. In addition, it is also necessary to instill in the community character values, so that clean and healthy living behaviors really grow and are well embedded in people's lives.

Abstract

Leprosy, unlike other high-fatality diseases, is a long-term, chronic illness that can cause long-term disability. People's experiences with leprosy in Indonesia, indicating a need for responsive leprosy services to meet the wide range of requirements, including care for those who are not formally afflicted with the disease. This study aimed to explore live experience of people affected by leprosy in the community in Banten province, Indonesia. This study employed inductive phenomenological research methods with a semi-structure interview. We used snowball sampling, and people who could not communicate or did not want to take part in the study were not included. The majority of the participants were below 45 years, and 21 were male and 19 were female. Among total participants, only 15% could not read and write. The data were examined using Colaizzi's phenomenological analysis, which involves collecting and analysing data in parallel until no new information is acquired. We established trustworthiness in qualitative studies. The following themes emerged from this study: i) public understanding about leprosy; ii) psychological response; iii) perceived stigma; iv) health seeking behavior; and v) leprosy's impact on economic condition. This study identified the meaning of leprosy patients' lives through their own voices. People who have leprosy should also get spiritual help, coping skills, and training in self-care skills.

Abstract

Childhood vaccination provides direct protection through community immunity, while also contributing to population-level disease protection. The purpose of this study was to determine parents' decision on measles, mumps, rubela (MMR) vaccination and the factors that influence their decisions. This study used a cross-sectional study in a community setting in Banten, Indonesia. The protection motivation theory (PMT) scale incorporates interpersonal factors, prior experience, MMR information sources, threat appraisal, and coping appraisal. A multivariate logistic regression was utilized to determine the factors related with the parent's decision. A total of 220 people volunteered to participate in this study, of which 45.5% (n=100) accepted the MMR vaccine on time, 22.7% (n=50) accepted it late, and 31.8 % (n=70) received no MMR vaccine at all. Those who accept MMR vaccine on time were more likely to had secondary and below of education level, interpersonal characteristics, treat appraisal, coping appraisal, past experience, and MMR knowledge and sources than those who did not accept MMR vaccine. The present study, which employed Protection Motivation Theory, provided valuable insights into the factors that influence parents' intentions to adhere with the official MMR vaccine advice in a Banten region with a high measles prevalence.
