Purpose: The purpose of the study was to explore experiences of Marshallese adults related to diabetes self-care behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was utilized to understand participants’ diabetes self-care behaviors during the pandemic. Nine focus groups with 53 participants were held via videoconference and conducted in English, Marshallese, or a mixture of both languages. A priori codes based on diabetes self-care behaviors provided a framework for analyzing and summarizing participant experiences. Results: Both increases and decreases in healthy eating and exercise were described, with improvements in health behaviors attributed to health education messaging via social media. Participants reported increased stress and difficulty monitoring and managing glucose. Difficulty obtaining medication and difficulty seeing their health care provider regularly was reported and attributed to health care provider availability and lack of insurance due to job loss. Conclusions: The study provides significant insight into the reach of health education campaigns via social media and provides important information about the reasons for delays in care, which extend beyond fear of contracting COVID-19 to structural issues.

Abstrak: Data Riskesdas tahun 2018 menyatakan bahwa pada bayi umur 0-5 bulan di Indonesia, proporsi pola pemberian ASI sebanyak 37,3% ASI ekslusif, sedangkan pada ASI parsial dan ASI predominan masing-masing sebesar 9,3%, dan 3,3%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa angka ASI eksklusif kita masih tergolong rendah. Perawatan payudara adalah faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap keberhasilan proses menyusui pada ibu nifas, selain faktor lainnya. Penelitian sebelumnya mengungkapkan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara perawatan payudara dengan keberhasilan proses menyusui dengan p-value sebesar 0,007. Tujuan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah memberi edukasi kepada masyarakat khususnya ibu nifas untuk dapat melakukan perawatan payudara pada masa nifasnya sehingga bisa mendukung program ASI eksklusif. Metode pengabdian masyarakat dilakukan melalui ceramah dan simulasi perawatan payudara. Pendidikan kesehatan dilakukan oleh dosen dan mahasiswa STIKes Widya Dharma Husada Tangerang. Kegiatan bertempat di Posyandu Dewi Sri Pamulang Kota tangerang Selatan. Pelaksanaannya pada saat kegiatan posyandu lalu disertakan pendidikan kesehatan dengan tema perawatan payudara pada ibu nifas. Peserta kegiatan sebanyak 15 orang ibu nifas. Terdapat antusiasme warga saat kegiatan berlangsung. Dampak kegiatan ini peserta mengetahui cara melakukan perawatan pada payudara sehingga sangat bermanfaat dalam proses menyusuinya. Harapan selanjutnya adalah kader posyandu juga dapat terus memberikan pendidikan kesehatan mengenai perawatan payudara pada ibu nifas yang belum memahami bagaimana merawat payudara selama proses menyusui.Abstract: Riskesdas data for 2018 states that in infants aged 0-5 months in Indonesia, the proportion of breastfeeding patterns is 37,3% exclusive breastfeeding, while partial breastfeeding and predominant breastfeedings are 9,3% and 3,3%, respectively. This shows that our exclusive breastfeeding rate is still low. Breast care is one of the factors that influence the success of the breastfeeding process in postpartum mothers and other factors. Previous research revealed a significant relationship between breast care and the success of the breastfeeding process with a p-value = 0,007. This community service aims to provide education to the community, especially postpartum mothers, to carry out breast care during the puerperium so that they can support the exclusive breastfeeding programs. Community service methods are carried out through lectures and simulations of breast care. Health education is carried out by lecturers and students of STIKes Widya Dharma Husada Tangerang. The activity took place at Posyandu Dewi Sri Pamulang, South Tangerang City. It was implemented during the posyandu activities and then included health education with breast care for postpartum mothers. Participants in the activity were about 15 mothers. There was enthusiasm from the residents when the activity took place. The impact of this activity, participants know how to do a treatment on the breast, so it is very beneficial in breastfeeding. The next hope is that posyandu cadres can also continue to provide health education on breast care to mothers who do not understand how to care for the breast during the breastfeeding process.

The article focuses on the study of modern approaches in the typology of nursing homes. Global data on the increase in the share of older people in the total population are presented. In addition, Rosstat data confirm the relevance of studying this topic. Examples of foreign experience in designing and building homes for the elderly show the developed functional composition of the premises, along with the function of accommodation and care - health care, leisure, trade, sports, food and multifunctional spaces to ensure social interaction of different groups of the population. The research reveals a method of "functional improvement" aimed at developing optimal functional interactions between public and residential spaces. A concept project for a "dynamic" scheme has been developed, showing the inclusion of residential blocks in a multifunctional complex. The chosen functional organization allows the creation of private spaces for residents of retirement age and walking areas for visitors to the complex. It is determined that in Russia it is necessary to implement modern approaches adapted to Russian conditions, based on foreign experience. This will enhance the consumer quality of the facility and the comfort level of the elderly, which will undoubtedly provide social interaction through the introduction of educational and leisure functions, as well as improve the ecological and aesthetic qualities of the environment.
