Background: Rehospitalization of heart failure patients is often considered the result of inadequate self-care yet only one study documents superior outcomes with better self-care. Aims: If inadequate self-care is related to hospitalizations, then hospitalized heart failure patients should have lower self-care skills than non-hospitalized patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate perceived social support and self-care characteristics of patients hospitalized with an exacerbation of heart failure. The self-care of heart failure index (SCHFI) and medical outcomes study of social support (MOS-SS) were the key instruments used in the research. Methods and results: This descriptive study used t tests and multiple regression to analyze the data. Results were compared with non-hospitalized heart failure patients in another study. Perceived social support ( t=−4.007, df=211, P<0.001) and self-care maintenance ( t=−3.343, df=220, P<0.002) scores were lower in the hospitalized participants than the comparison group. Self-care confidence was the only variable significantly related to perceived social support ( β=0.210, t=2.210, P<0.30). Conclusions: This study supports the premise that heart failure rehospitalizations are related to inadequate self-care.

Peer group in DM patients may help DM treatment. Objective: To identify the effectiveness ofpeer group-based diabetes self-management education program (DSMEP) on diabetes self-care activities of type 2 DM. Methods: This study was pre-experimental with one group pre-test-post-test design with control group design. Samples were taken using purposive sampling from November to March 2013, with inclusion criteria of DM type II and >18 years old. The sample size was 13 patients for each of the intervention and control group. The intervention group received DSMEP, while the control group received standard education. Pretest was given before the intervention and posttest was given a month after the intervention. The Summary Instrument of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (validity value r>0.361, Cronbach’s Alpha=0.847) was used to measure self-care activities. Data were analyzed using paired and unpaired t-test. Results: Most of the respondents were female and received more than 10years of treatment. The majority of the respondents were tertiary educated, Javanese, Islamic, and married. There was a difference in self-care activity before and after intervention between the intervention and control groups in the component of DM patient treatment (p=0.005), but there was no significant difference in the components of dietary (p=0.077), exercise (p=0.259), blood sugar test (p=0.058), and foot care (p=0.309). Conclusion: Peer group-based diabetes self-management education program (DSMEP) can improve self-care ability of type 2 diabetes patients.Keywords: diabetes, peer group, self-care, activities

The study examined the relationships among resilience, self-care, self-compassion of first responders. In addition, the study assessed the contributions of protective and risk factors to responders' resilience and disaster response competencies. Five research hypotheses and three research questions were examined with Pearson r correlations, multiple regressions, one t-test, one MANOVA, and post hoc tests, showing significant and meaningful results. In addition, the internal consistency reliabilities of the DRCQ scales were investigated which were strong to very strong. It was hypothesized and shown that there were significant positive relationships among self-care, self-compassion, and resilience. A second hypothesis was retained that the two dimensions of self-care (i.e., self-care practices and physical safety) were predictors of self-compassion. Responders who consciously observed self-care practices fostered and strengthened self-compassion and vice versa.

The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically affected the mental health field. The unique distress caused by the pandemic along with the need for many to transition their therapy practices to TeleHealth/Telepsychology modalities caught many therapists, including existential–humanistic therapists, unprepared to make the necessary adjustments to treat clients in a manner that is safe and effective. Existential–humanistic therapy often is neglected with trauma and disaster relief work, despite its relevancy and important contributions. All therapies must adjust in crisis situations, particularly when adjustments to how services are offered are disrupted; however, the impact of these changes varies by therapeutic orientation. As an approach that values genuineness, empathy, and presence, existential–humanistic therapy faces unique challenges when employed with disaster response. However, when these challenges are faced, existential–humanistic therapy has much to offer disaster response, including consideration of existential guilt, existential shattering, existential anxiety, and existential perspectives on self-care.

While the results of the analysis of differences in self care using the brainstorming and buzz group education methods with an average self-care value of 49.40 and 67.47, respectively, which means that the buzz group has a higher average value than the brainstorming group. The results of the independent t-test obtained a p-value of 0.000.Conclusion: The buzz group method is more effective in improving self-care in patients with Congestive Heart Failure compared to the brainstorming educational method. It is recommended that Harapan Bunda Hospital can use varied methods such as buzz groups in providing self-care education to Congestive Heart Failure patients. Keywords     : Brainstorming, Buzz Group, Self Care, Congestive Heart Failure    INTISARI: METODE EDUKASI BRAINSTORMING DAN EDUKASI BUZZ GROUP TERHADAP PENINGKATAN SELF CARE PADA KLIEN CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE  Pendahuluan: Congestive heart failure merupakan penyakit yang cukup serius, dengan angka kejadian dan jumlah pasien untuk mengalami rehospitalisasi yang terus meningkat.Kondisi ini dikarenkan minimnya pengetahuan klien dan keluarga tentang penyakit congestive heart failure dan self care di rumah.
