Background: The global use of mobile devices with their connectivity capacity, and integrated with the affordances of social media networks, provides a resource-rich platform for innovative student-directed learning experiences.Objective: The objective of this study was to review the experiences of undergraduate nurses on the improvement of primary health care education at a School of Nursing at a University in the Western Cape, South Africa, through the incorporation of a social media application, WhatsApp.Method: A qualitative, exploratory, descriptive, and contextual design was used to explore and describe data collected from a purposive sample of 21 undergraduate nursing students. The study population was engaged in a WhatsApp discussion group to enhance their integration of theory and clinical practice of the health assessment competency of the Primary Health Care Module. Participants submitted electronic reflections on their experiences in the WhatsApp discussion group via email on completion of the study. Thematic analysis of the qualitative data collected was done according to Tesch’s (1990) steps of descriptive data analysis in order to identify the major themes in the study. The electronic reflections were analysed to explore their rich, reflective data.Results: Seven themes were identified that included: positive experiences using the WhatsApp group; the usefulness of WhatsApp for integrating theory and clinical practice; the availability of resources for test preparation; opportunity for clarification; anonymity; exclusion of students as a result of the lack of an appropriate device, and the application caused the battery of the device to run flat quickly.Conclusion: The results of the experiences of students in the WhatsApp discussion group could be used to inform the use of social media applications in teaching and learning, with the purpose of enhancing the integration of the theory and clinical practice.

Abstrak Semakin meningkatnya jumlah kasus HIV/AIDS di Indonesia, berdampak tidak hanya pada masalah kesehatan, memacu pemerintah untuk melibatkan masyarakat sipil dalam Organisasi Berbasis Komunitas (OBK) untuk ikut berperan dalam upaya pencegahan dan penanggulangan HIV/AIDS. Pentingnya identifikasi kendala atau hambatan yang dihadapi oleh OBK memunculkan strategi atau alternatif solusi untuk mengatasi kendala, serta memberikan gambaran model intervensi yang lebih sinkron antara pemerintah dan masyarakat. Desain penelitian adalah kualitatif dengan melakukan studi kasus di dua LSM Peduli AIDS di Jakarta. Informan dipilih secara purposive sampling yaitu pengurus, anggota/petugas, dan dampingan dari dua OBK. Pengumpulan informasi dengan wawancara mendalam berdasarkan pedoman wawancara dan diolah menggunakan metode content analysis. Kendala yang dihadapi OBK yaitu alur rujukan BPJS yang mengikuti domisili sehingga memberatkan pasien, kurang optimalnya koordinasi dan kerjasama antara OBK dengan Puskesmas, belum meratanya kualitas dan kapasitas SDM anggota OBK, persoalan administratif organisasi, sumber dana yang tidak selalu kontinu, adanya perbedaan kepentingan antara OBK dengan pihak kepolisian, serta masih tingginya stigma masyarakat terhadap penderita HIV/AIDS. Solusi mengatasi kendala OBK dilakukan dengan peningkatan efektifitas pelaksanaan program pemerintah melalui OBK, antara lain dengan penerapan fleksibilitas pengelolaan dana berdasarkan kinerja OBK, peningkatan kapasitas SDM, pemantapan sistem manajerial, pemahaman alur layanan kesehatan di Puskesmas, serta social support bagi penderita HIV/AIDS. Kata kunci: organisasi berbasis komunitas, LSM, HIV/AIDS Abstract The increasing number of HIV/AIDS cases in Indonesia that impact not only on health issues, spur the Government to involve civil society in community-based organizations (OBK) to play a role in HIV/AIDS prevention program. Identification of constraints or obstacles faced by OBK do as they can generate alternative strategies or solutions to overcome these constraints, and provide a more synchronous model of intervention between the government and the community. This type of research is a case study at two AIDS Awareness NGOs in Jakarta. The informants were chosen by purposive sampling ie the board, members/officers, and assistants from the two NGOs. Information collection with by in-depth interview based on interview guideline and processed using content analysis method. Constraints faced by the OBK is the issue of referral flow pathways that follow the domicile so burdensome patients, less optimal coordination and cooperation between OBK with primary health care, uneven quality and capacity of human resources of NGO members, organizational administrative issues, sources of funds that are not always continuous, different interests between the OBK with the police department, and the stigma. Reduction of obstacles faced by OBK can be done by increasing the effectiveness of government program implementation through OBK, among others by applying flexibility of fund management based on OBK performance, human resource capacity building, managerial system strengthening, understanding of health service flow in primary health care, and social support for patient HIV/AIDS.
