East Jakarta has become a city area with the largest number of elementary schools opened during face-to-face learning, even though it has the highest population infected with COVID-19. During face-to-face learning, it is important for schoolteachers to become role models for COVID-19 transmission prevention by implementing health protocols at schools. The purpose of this study was to determine factors that affected schoolteachers' behavior in East Jakarta City, Indonesia during face-to-face learning. This study used a quantitative approach, cross-sectional design with a sample of 239 teachers from 20 elementary schools. Data was collected by independently filling out an online questionnaire. Results showed that the average score of schoolteachers' health protocol behavior during face-to-face learning was 11.1±1.1 (range 4-12). The schoolteachers' behavior was affected by attitude (β= 0.204, P= 0.001) and health workers' support (β= 0.160, P= 0.016) after being controlled by school support and attitude towards health protocols during face-to-face learning was the dominant factor. Accurate information from reliable sources regarding COVID-19, besides support vaccinations for school members is needed in order to maintain schoolteachers' behavior and followed by all school members.

Aim: The aim of the literature review was to identify evidence of the effectiveness of self-management programs in preventing progression of diabetic nephropathy. Design: A literature review. Methods: This review was conducted according to the Cochrane guidelines for systematic review research and complies with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. We found seven articles from electronic databases such as Science Direct, PubMed, and CINAHL from 2011 to 2021. Three researchers independently conducted study selections, extracted data, and assessed the data quality. Results: Seven studies were included (two randomized control trials and five quasi-experimental studies). We examined studies that provided deep analysis and explanation of self-management to prevent progression of diabetic nephropathy. Conclusion: All of the studies reported that self-management programs significantly improved behaviors aimed at preventing diabetic nephropathy progression such as dietary, physical activity, medication adherence, and smoking cessation. In addition to behaviors, the program also improved renal function, metabolic markers, and blood pressure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Patient safety incident reporting is one of the steps taken needed to improve patient safety. Reporting can provide a broad picture of the incident and how it happened. This can be used as basic data for policy making and making patient safety programs in hospitals. The subjects in this study were health workers. This research method uses a systematic review, from various sources of research that has been done previously. The databases used in this study are Science Direct, Scopus and SpringerLink, journals published from January 2011 to December 2021 which were then extracted using PRISMA 2009 flowcharts. So that the final results were 11 journals that were reviewed. This study resulted in reporting patient safety incidents influenced by individual factors, group/unit factors and organizational factors. The conclusion of this study is that incident reporting can be improved by evaluating and improving individual factors, group/unit factors and organizational factors [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

The objectives of this study are to validate an Indonesian version of the Chiba Interprofessional Competency Scale (CICS29) and measure the interprofessional competencies of undergraduate health-care students following their completion of an interprofessional education (IPE) course. This study used a cross-sectional design and was preceded by a cross translation of the instrument and a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), which confirmed that the Indonesian-version CICS29 has good internal consistency comparable to the original model. The Indonesian version was then administered to 723 health-care students who had completed a community-based IPE course. Based on data gathered from 707 respondents (97.8%), it was found that their interprofessional competency was relatively good (mean score: 127.9 out of 145, 88.2%). The dental students scored consistently lower compared to students of other faculties, both in the overall CICS29 and all five of its subscales, three of which are specifically related to teamwork. The study has provided support for cross-cultural validity of undergraduate health-care students' interprofessional competency measures using CICS29. Further efforts are necessary to ensure that the students understand their roles and internalize the collaborative values and practices of all health professions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Background: The Interprofessional Education (IPE) program is important for preparing health professions students to provide future interprofessional collaborative practice. The Universitas Indonesia Health Sciences Cluster has been implementing the IPE program since 2013. A comprehensive evaluation is required following the implementation of the IPE program. The aim of the study was to evaluate the IPE course based on perceptions of undergraduate students at the Universitas Indonesia from 2013 to 2017. Methods: A mixed-methods study utilizing a semi-structured questionnaire was conducted with first year students following the completion of the first stage of the IPE course. A total of 2355 students (56.35%) from the 2013-2017 academic years completed the questionnaire. Results: The results showed that students' perceptions of the IPE course improved each year on the domains of clear and relevant learning objectives, studentcentered teaching methods, staff support, and supporting infrastructures. However, some room for improvement was identified, such as the need for tutors to have a more neutral attitude toward every student despite their background differences. Conclusion: The IPE course has been well perceived by students because of its comprehensive instructional design and principles of IPE that are implemented in the curriculum. The continuous cycles of improvement to maintain the quality of the IPE program will remain a challenge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Background: Coverage of basic immunization to infants In Tangerang Regency, the last three years of 2014-2016 rose 2% - 7% every year, it always increases every year and immunization coverage nationally exceeds the national target of 90% 93.83%. This is different from the incidence of diphtheria in Tangerang Regency. The implementation of an immunization program provides an important role in the outbreak of vaccines by health workers who can preserve people’s perceptions regarding unwanted reactions due to vaccination, causing re-emergence of diseases in the form (KLB). This event can also occur because a damaged vaccine cannot be repaired and cannot cause immunity. As a result, outbreaks of immunization-preventable diseases will continue to occur so that this study will know the description and relationship of program management performance based on Malcolm Baldrige. Method: it used is quantitative and qualitative method using questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Results: The results of the performance of immunization managers based on Malcolm Baldrige were obtained that strategic planning had the highest yield of 85.02. The lowest variable is to focus on the team with a value of 78.02. Multivariate showed that the correlation results of performance has a strong correlation with the variable Leadership Strategic Planning, Customer Focus, Measurement, Analysis and Knowledge Management, Focus on Team and Focus on Process Rated determinant coefficient (R2= 0.793) where the variable most The high effect on the results with (B) = 0.429 or 42.9% while the focus variable on the team is the smallest variable which has an effect on the performance results with (B) = 0.003 or 0.3%. Conclusion: So that better measurement, analysis and knowledge management, strategic planning, customer focus, leadership, focus on the process and focus on the team will improve the performance results.
