Background: The quality of health services cannot be separated from the collaboration of all components of human resources, including nurses. Transformational leadership supported by supervision can also improve the prevention and control of infection risk in order to optimize their work performance. Supervision activities carried out by the head of the room might have a positive impact on nurse commitment. Aims: The objective of this study is to analyze the influence of supervision and transformational leadership style on nurse compliance in infection risk prevention and control at GMIBM (Gereja Masehi Injili at Bolaang Mongondow) Monompia General Hospital, Kotamobagu, Indonesia. Methods: This original research used an analytic observational with a quantitative approach and a cross sectional study design. A total of 72 nurses who worked at GMIBM Monompia Kotamobagu General Hospital, Kotamobagu Regency, Indonesia, was selected in August 2022 using a total sampling technique based on the data from the human resources division. Two combined questionnaires were distributed to define the leader supervision (20 questions) and the nurses’ compliance and their transformational leadership styles (18 questions) for prevention and control the infection risks. The results of this study were analyzed using SPSS Software (univariate and bivariate parameters). Results: This study shows that a sufficient supervision frequency (59.7%) among the participated nurses. We identify there were four transformational leadership styles among the nurses at the selected hospital: Ideal influence (33.3%), Inspirational motivation (27.8%), Individual consideration (20.8%) and Intellectual stimulation (18.1%). Moreover, the majority of nurses performed good compliance in the preventing and controlling the infection risks (80.6%). The lack of compliance might be significantly resulted by the leader supervisions (p-value: 0.002). By the bivariate analysis, this study suggested that there is a relationship between transformational leadership style and compliance (p value: 0.001). We also noticed that the leader supervision and transformational leadership style are moderating variables to strengthen the nurse compliance (R Square = 0.336). Conclusion : This present study strongly suggested the hospital manager and head departments to pay attention to the two strong factors (Supervision and transformational leadership style) affecting the nurses compliance in updating and implementing the prevention and risk control programs.

Most of the inhabitants in Central Kalimantan live in a residential area which is located close to the watershed (DAS). The geography of the watershed is a challenge for affordable health services, particularly in mental health services. Patients with mental disorders who do not get health care services will have a high risk of experiencing recurrence due to withdrawal of medication. There are needs to be solved by various parties to overcome this problem. Mental healthcare delivery in this area is more likely to be effective and sustainable if supported by the secondary level of care in particular the local Health Department. This photo essay pictures our effort to revitalize a village for mental health in watershed area in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. The concept of “Desa Siaga Sehat Jiwa” (Healthy Village) focuses on empowering communities and local health authorities to work together to improve mental health. A community-based mental health initiative has been conducted in cooperation with mental health nurses raising awareness of mental health. Nurse educators at the Health Polytechnic Palangka Raya have an important role to play in raising awareness of mental health in village communities. We delivered and facilitated a discussion session to revitalize the village in order to increase their awareness to mental health. For the collaboration, to the meeting, we invite the village local stakeholders including the community leaders, health providers from the Primary Health Care, soldiers, police, and community representatives. To sustainably continue the forming of “Desa Siaga Sehat Jiwa”, a mutual agreement was signed by the stakeholders as a commitment to work together to create a healthy community in improving mental health in the villages.
加里曼丹中部的大多数居民居住在靠近流域(DAS)的居民区。分水岭的地理位置对负担得起的保健服务,特别是精神保健服务构成挑战。没有得到卫生保健服务的精神障碍患者因停药而复发的风险很高。这个问题需要各方共同解决。如果得到二级保健特别是地方卫生部门的支持,这一领域的精神保健服务更有可能有效和可持续。这篇摄影文章描述了我们为振兴印度尼西亚加里曼丹中部流域地区一个村庄的精神健康所做的努力。" Desa Siaga Sehat Jiwa "(健康村)的概念侧重于增强社区和地方卫生当局的权能,共同努力改善心理健康。与精神保健护士合作,开展了一项以社区为基础的精神保健倡议,以提高对精神保健的认识。帕朗卡拉亚卫生理工学院的护士教育工作者在提高乡村社区对精神卫生的认识方面可发挥重要作用。我们举办并促进了一次讨论会议,以振兴村庄,以提高他们对心理健康的认识。在合作方面,我们邀请村庄的当地利益攸关方参加会议,包括社区领导人、初级卫生保健机构的卫生提供者、士兵、警察和社区代表。为了可持续地继续形成" Desa Siaga Sehat Jiwa ",利益攸关方签署了一项共同协议,承诺共同努力创建一个健康的社区,改善村庄的心理健康。

Improving digital communication skills is a necessity in the era of information technology, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, and after the pandemic has passed, this need remains. We have to adjust or we fall behind. In digital communication we must strengthen the skills of stringing words, that's the only effective way to share ideas and feelings. Humans are emotional creatures. We always feel first than we think about our feelings. The alignment of impulses in the brain reaches the limbic system first, we feel. Then the impulses are processed in the cerebri cortex, we become able to think about our feelings. It's important to be able to do emotional animation consciously. Emotional animation is an attempt to bring to life positively valued emotions such as pleasure, relief, compassion, empathy, gratitude, etc., and controlling negatively valued emotions such as anger, sadness, hate, disgust, etc. We need to improve communication skills to level four, which are safe and comfortable sharing feelings. The comfort of speaking to share feelings is the result of being created, not happening unconsciously. It’s important to be aware when speaking. The most visible technique that can be trained is confirmation. Confirmation is effective for careful linking with partners. This editorial provides examples communication through chatting application Whatsapp. What about the availability of emoticons and stickers in the WhatsApp platform? Can’t it be used to replace intonation and body language? It can indeed be used in the right situations so as to strengthen the words. However, overuse of emoticons and stickers makes messages less personal. We also become less than optimal in the way we are present and respond to the presence of others. Finally, the way we communicate is rooted in character, but character formation takes a long time. Being aware to do emotional animation in every conversation is a simple short-term solution in fixing communication problems. In digital communication, making optimal the ability to string words is the right choice.

In mid-2020, COVID-19 cases in Central Kalimantan showed relatively high, approximately 10.5% of children suffered from COVID -19. Many institutions have been implementing health education on the positive healthy behaviour standard for COVID-19 prevention, including regular hand washing, mask-wearing, and social distancing. The purpose of this article is to give clear and actionable guidance for children living in river-basin residences. Central Kalimantan geographically has a number of rivers known as a watershed area (DAS). This photo essay records health promotion given during Covid-19 outbreak in Riverbank of Kahayan River, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. In this study area, children use small boat made by wood to mobile or visit their friends to play. Before the Covid-19 Outbreak, using face mask in not compulsory and parents will just freely give permission to their children to play outside. It is shown that it is challenging to encourage children to protect themselves from the COVID-19 infection in the area of DAS. Moreover, the existence of this abundant water source is a potential natural asset for positive hygiene behaviour. Thus, it is worth noting that hand washing with soap and water is recommended. A cultural approach can also be an alternative for health campaigns. This paper shows how we use one of traditional musical instruments of Central Kalimantan, called Japen, and the lute is used as an instrument for making audio-visuals. This instrument is made from a sack. It includes education and has a key message of moral wisdom with the social value of the Dayak people in Borneo. Maintaining children's health during the Covid 19 pandemic with creative educational campaigns, using various modes such as posters, multimedia, and storytelling is beneficial for positive health behaviours.

Diabetes Mellitus management requires 4 pillars, namely medical nutrition therapy, medicine, exercise and health education. One of the steps that nurses can take is to provide proper health education to patients in order to increase patient independence so that diabetes management is optimal. In Palangka Raya City, people with diabetes who come and seek treatment at the puskesmas increased quite sharply in the last 6 years, this is shown by increase in people with diabetes in the period 2006-2020. In 2020 happens a significant increase in the number of 7,615 cases of people with diabetes mellitus, this shows that health promotion has not been able to reduce the number of people with diabetes mellitus in the city of Palangka Raya. This happens because sufferers often ignore or are not aware of the dangers of DM for their lives. This photo essay captures our efforts in controlling and monitoring the healths of the DM patients including the examination of blood sugar, blood pressure and body weight. We highlight the important role of health educators in providing health services for the entire community in order to improve the health status of the community.
