Rysca Ramadhani Arista Dewi, Dwi Astuti, Priyatin Sulistyowati
Abstract: Background: Preschool-Aged children, aged 3–6 years, where the preschool period becomes a very fun time and get various new things. The weakness experienced by preschool children is that their immune system is weaker than&#8230; han adults, which makes them more susceptible to infections, as well as the risk of falls and injuries, so they require medical treatment in the hospital. Childern who undergoing treatment at the Puskesmas can cause anxiety for them because they must leave their familiar, safe, loving, and enjoyable home environment. Hospitalization is a planned medical procedure that requires care and treatment but can trigger anxiety in children, both mentally and physically. Anxiety will cause children to become uncooperative and difficult to cooperate with health workers. During this process, children may face traumatic experiences that cause stress. One of the efforts to reduce the level of anxiety is by implementing play therapy, one of which is the coloring play therapy technique. Objective: This research describes the application of coloring play therapy on anxiety levels in preschool-aged children at Padamara Health Center. Methods: This research used a case study research design method. Results: This research indicate that before the intervention score was 25 (moderate anxiety) and after the intervention score was 9 (no anxiety).

DEVELOPING A GROWTH MINDSET IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS: A TRAINING GUIDE TO ENHANCE DEEP LEARNING

Wahdeni, Tuti khairani, Khairani Hasibuan, Hamka
Abstract: The training program “Developing a Growth Mindset Among Elementary School Teachers: A Training Guide for Enhancing Deep Learning” was organized by the Department of Education of Mandailing Natal Regency to strengthen teachers’&#8230; teachers’ pedagogical competence and foster a student-centered learning culture. This initiative was motivated by the 2022 PISA results, which revealed that more than 99% of Indonesian students could only solve problems at lower levels (Lower Order Thinking Skills), while less than 1% reached higher levels (Higher Order Thinking Skills). One of the underlying causes is the prevalence of a fixed mindset among teachers—the belief that intelligence is innate and difficult to change. This training aimed to cultivate a growth mindset based on Carol S. Dweck’s (2006) theory, which emphasizes that abilities can be developed through effort and learning strategies. The method employed was a reflective andragogical workshop involving material presentations, microteaching simulations, and collaborative reflections. The results indicated a significant improvement in teachers’ understanding of the growth mindset concept and its implementation in deep learning. Teachers began providing process praise, applying The Power of Yet strategy, and creating emotionally safe and collaborative classroom environments. Furthermore, the establishment of the Growth-Oriented Teacher Community of Mandailing Natal (KGB-Madina) emerged as a sustainable platform for sharing best teaching practices and fostering continuous professional growth.

BRIDGING DOCUMENTATION GAPS IN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS: AN ANALYSIS OF INCOMPLETE MEDICAL ASSESSMENTS AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES FOR INA-CBGS REIMBUREMENT

Ika Setya Purwanti, Made Wahyu Aditya
Abstract: Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are designed to improve service quality, documentation accuracy, and administrative efficiency, including reimbursement through the Indonesian Case-Based Groups (INA-CBGs). However, incomplete&#8230; plete medical assessments remain a challenge, potentially leading to service gaps and reduced hospital claims. This qualitative descriptive study was conducted at Dharma Yadnya General Hospital, Denpasar, which has fully implemented EMR since 2024. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with five informants: two medical record officers, the head of the emergency nursing unit, the head of the inpatient nursing unit, and the head of the medical record department. Data analysis used the 3M framework: Man, Method, and Material. From the Man aspect, heavy workloads of doctors and the lack of administrative support staff often caused delays and incomplete documentation. From the Method aspect, although Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and system reminders existed, monitoring relied mainly on manual follow-ups via WhatsApp groups, limiting effectiveness. From the Material aspect, the EMR system was user-friendly and supported by weekly vendor maintenance, but occasional network disruptions and insufficient administrative staff still hampered real-time documentation. Incomplete medical assessments in EMR directly affect INA-CBGs claims, especially when comorbidities, complications, or procedures are not recorded, resulting in under-coding and reduced reimbursement. Strengthening human resources, enforcing SOPs, and improving system support are essential to ensure documentation completeness, service quality, and financial sustainability

Sofiyatun Hasanah, Dwi Astuti, Priyatin Sulistyowati
Abstract: Background: Elderly individuals are at high risk of experiencing degenerative diseases, one of which is gout arthritis, caused by the accumulation of monosodium urate crystals in the joints due to hyperuricemia. Non-pharmacological&#8230; macological therapies such as bay leaf (Syzygium polyanthum), which contains flavonoids, tannins, and essential oils, are believed to naturally reduce uric acid levels. Objective: To determine the effect of bay leaf decoction on reducing uric acid levels in elderly patients with gout arthritis in Serang Village. Method: This research used a descriptive approach with a case study method. The subject was one elderly person with gout arthritis who was given an intervention in the form of bay leaf decoction twice a day for four days. Results: The uric acid level before the intervention was 8.2 mg/dL and after the intervention was 4.2 mg/dL. The reduction of 4 mg/dL indicates that the bay leaf decoction was effective in lowering uric acid levels. Conclusion: Bay leaf decoction affects the reduction of uric acid levels in elderly patients with gout arthritis and can be used as a safe, easy, and affordable nonpharmacological alternative therapy.

ILLUSTRATION OF THE APPLICATION OF SHALLOT RUBBINGON DECREASING BODY TEMPERATURE IN CHILDREN AGED 2-5 YEARS WITH FEVER IN DESA KEMOJING, KEMANGKON DISTRICT PURBALINGGA REGENCY

Setiani, Purwaningsih Endah, Astuti, Dwi, Sulistyowati, Priyatin
Abstract: Febris fever is a condition in which body temperature rises above normal due to an increase in the temperature-regulating center located in the hypothalamus. Red Onion can be used for compress because they contain the organic&#8230; ganic sulfur compound Allylcysteine Sulfoxide. After applying an onion compress, body temperature decreases because blood flow returns to the blood vessels near the skin's surface, thus optimizing heat dissipation.To determine the effectiveness of applying onion compress to children with fever. This study used a descriptive case study approach and was conducted in Kemojing Village. After applying onion compresses for three days, with each session lasting 15 minutes, the children's body temperature decreased. The initial body temperature was 38.4°C, which decreased to 36.8°C by the end of the third day.  Using onion compresses on children with fever can effectively reduce their body temperature.
