OBJECTIVES: Empowering managers plays a crucial role in developing the capabilities and competencies of individuals to improve the continuous performance of health center organizations. The purpose of this study is to design a model of empowerment of health center managers in Iran during 2018-2019. DESIGN: In this applied, exploratory and cross-sectional study, human resource empowerment components were extracted by reviewing the literature and interviewing subject specialists. Then, the conceptual model of the research was designed and the questionnaire was formulated and validated. Data were collected by filling out a questionnaire from a total of 416 managers of health centers selected by stratified random sampling. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis. RESULTS: In the final model of empowerment of health center managers, five factors were identified as effective factors. The standardized regression coefficients among the contextual, self-efficacy, managerial, organizational-value, and psychological factors with empowerment were 0.98, 0.95, 0.92, 0.90, and 0.76, respectively. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicate the suitability of the final model of health center managers’ empowerment. CONCLUSIONS: Due to the influence of contextual, self-efficacy, managerial, organizational-value, and psychological factors in the model approved in this study, the health system senior managers can have a systemic approach to issues. In addition, they can improve managers’ abilities by employing a continuous self-assessment system in health centers, applying the proposed model, improving administrative infrastructure and working environment, paying attention to organizational culture, reward system, participatory management, information sharing, continuous training, and modeling.

Abstract Background In recent years, health centers in the United States have embraced the opportunity to train the next generation of health professionals. The uniqueness of the health centers as teaching settings emphasizes the need to determine if health professions training programs align with health center priorities and the nature of any adjustments that would be needed to successfully implement a training program. We sought to address this need by developing and validating a new survey that measures organizational readiness constructs important for the implementation of health professions training programs at health centers where the primary role of the organizations and individuals is healthcare delivery. Methods The study incorporated several methodological steps for developing and validating a measure for assessing health center readiness to engage with health professions programs. A conceptual framework was developed based on literature review and later validated by 20 experts in two focus groups. A survey-item pool was generated and mapped to the conceptual framework and further refined and validated by 13 experts in three modified Delphi rounds. The survey items were pilot-tested with 212 health center employees. The final survey structure was derived through exploratory factor analysis. The internal consistency reliability of the scale and subscales was evaluated using Chronbach’s alpha. Results The exploratory factor analysis revealed a 41-item, 7-subscale solution for the survey structure, with 72% of total variance explained. Cronbach’s alphas (.79–.97) indicated high internal consistency reliability. The survey measures: readiness to engage, evidence strength and quality of the health professions training program, relative advantage of the program, financial resources, additional resources, implementation team, and implementation plan. Conclusions The final survey, the Readiness to Train Assessment Tool (RTAT), is theoretically-based, valid and reliable. It provides an opportunity to evaluate health centers’ readiness to implement health professions programs. When followed with appropriate change strategies, the readiness evaluations could make the implementation of health professions training programs, and their spread across the United States, more efficient and cost-effective. While developed specifically for health centers, the survey may be useful to other healthcare organizations willing to assess their readiness to implement education and training programs.

Abstrak Masalah balita gizi buruk cenderung menurun pada tahun 2018, namun di beberapa daerah kasus gizi buruk meningkat menjadi KLB. Salah satu penanganannya melalui pemulihan di puskesmas. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui sejauh mana penanganan gizi buruk dilakukan oleh tenaga kesehatan puskesmas dan kader posyandu. Desain penelitian menggunakan pendekatan mix methods, berlokasi di Kalimantan Barat, Banten, Jawa Barat dan Nusa Tenggara Timur. Dua kabupaten dipilih dari masing-masing provinsi, selanjutnya dari tiap kabupaten diambil satu puskesmas yang banyak kasus gizi buruk. Informan penelitian adalah Tenaga Pelaksana Gizi (TPG) puskesmas dan kader posyandu. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi pelayanan gizi dan kesehatan, makanan terapi, dan penyuluhan serta peranan kader. Cara pengumpulan data dengan wawancara, in-depth interview dan diskusi kelompok terarah. Analisis data kuantitatif disajikan secara deskriptif dan kualitatif dengan content analysis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sebagian besar puskesmas di daerah penelitian menangani gizi buruk dengan cara rawat jalan. Belum semua TPG puskesmas mendapat pelatihan gizi buruk, hanya sebagian puskesmas menggunakan makanan terapi sedangkan lainnya menggunakan makanan tambahan yang tidak sesuai dengan pedoman. Dukungan sebagian kader dalam penanganan gizi buruk di puskesmas berupa penemuan kasus gizi buruk dan merujuknya, membagikan PMT ke rumah balita. Penanganan balita gizi buruk di puskesmas belum optimal karena tidak didukung dengan ketersediaan input berupa makanan terapi dan belum semua TPG mendapat pelatihan gizi buruk. Pelatihan gizi buruk untuk tenaga puskesmas perlu ditingkatkan dan sistem pengadaan makanan terapi di daerah perlu diperbaiki, agar kualitas pelayanan gizi buruk menjadi lebih baik. Kata kunci: gizi buruk, TPG, PMT, sistem pengadaan, pelayanan kesehatan Abstract The problem of severe malnutrition children under five years old tends to decline in 2018. One of the treatment measures was through recovery at the health center. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the extent to which severe malnutrition children was handled by health center nutrition officer and posyandu cadre. Mix methods approach was used as research design and the study was located in West Kalimantan, Banten, West Java and East Nusa Tenggara Provinces. Two districts were chosen, then one health center from each district was selected based on the highest severe malnutrition cases. The informants were nutrition officer of health center and posyandu cadres. The data collected were nutrition and health services, therapeutic food, counseling, and the role of cadres. Data was collected through interview, in-depth interview, and focus group discussion. Quantitative data analysis was presented descriptively and qualitative data was presented with content analysis.The majority of health centers handled severe malnutrition children in outpatient treatment setting. Not all nutrition officer of health centre have received training in handling severe malnutrition. Only some health centers used therapeutic food while others used supplementary foods that was not recommended. The support of cadre was seen in the form of finding cases of malnutrition and distributing supplementary food to the malnourished children’s homes. The handling of malnourished children in health centers was not optimal, because it was not supported by the availability of therapeutic food and not all nutrition officer have been trained. For recommendations, nutrition training for health center staff needs to be increased and the system for provision therapeutic food in the regions needs to be improved in order to improve the quality of nutrition services.

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine to which degree age, race, and Socioeconomic Status (SES) influence academic self-efficacy and academic self-handicapping behaviors in doctoral. Background: Across all disciplines, more than 50% of students who begin a doctoral program do not persist to graduation. Although the issue of student retention and psychological factors have been proffered, much attention has not been placed on this relationship. Past researchers have focused primarily on academic-related, student-related, institutional, and financial factors. Methodology: A quantitative study was conducted, using the exploratory factor analysis. One-hundred and sixty-five participants, of legal age, who had completed at least one semester of a doctoral program, were involved in this current study. Contribution: The findings from this study increase the empirical evidence reported on the scarce literature on student retention and psychological factors in doctoral students. Findings: The factor analysis test did not show a statistically significance between the dependent variables -academic self-efficacy and academic self-handicapping- and any of the independent variables – gender, race, age, and socioeconomic status. Recommendations for Practitioners: Higher education leaders should make a proactive effort to understand the issue of student retention from a psychological perspective and make implementations to reduce these problems for doctoral students. Recommendation for Researchers: Future researchers should explore in-depth psychological variables that contribute to the high attrition rates in doctoral students. Impact on Society: A better understanding of the factors affecting the cognitive strategies and self-constructs of doctoral students could provide those working in academia with a better understanding of the problem and increase awareness at a societal level. Future Research: It is recommended that future research be carried using a mixed methods approach to offset the limitations found in the quantitative strand and gain thick, rich data from the qualitative strand.

The sample of health workers were providers such as: doctors and dentist, heads of health centers and health offi ces. The results showed that the most referenced disease was a refraction disorder, unspecifi ed. Most primary health care with a high referral ratio (> 15%) did not have the required compulsory services at the primary health care, especially emergency and laboratory services (66.7%). The type of health personnel was less than that at Permenkes 75 of 2014 (83.3%). Facilities and infrastructure in health center were out of standards. Less drugs supplies also affected to referral. Suggestion: The government needs to provide more types of services, numbers of health workers and infrastructure in order to support the capacity of the health centre as well as better services . Abstrak Sistem Rujukan Pelayanan Kesehatan Perorangan menyebutkan bahwa pelayanan kesehatan dilaksanakan secara berjenjang sesuai kebutuhan medis, dimulai dari pelayanan dasar ke pelayanan kesehatan tingkat kedua berlanjut ke tingkat ketiga. Standar BPJS mengenai batasan rasio rujukan puskesmas ke pelayanan kesehatan tingkat lanjut maksimal 15%. Sebanyak 22 puskesmas (69%) dari 32 puskesmas di Kota Depok yang memiliki rasio rujukan diatas 15%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran faktor yang mempengaruhi rasio rujukan tinggi di puskesmas Kota Depok. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret sampai Oktober 2017. Metode yang digunakan adalah cross sectional (potong lintang). Populasi penelitian sebanyak 32 puskesmas di Kota Depok. Sampel yang diambil adalah puskesmas Kota Depok yang telah terdaftar pada BPJS sebagai FKTP sebanyak 12 puskesmas, 6 puskesmas dengan rujukan tinggi dan 6 puskesmas dengan rujukan rendah. Sampel tenaga kesehatan yang diwawancara meliputi pemberi pelayanan (dokter dan dokter gigi), kepala puskesmas dan Kepala Bidang Yankes Dinas Kesehatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penyakit yang paling banyak dirujuk adalah disorder of refraction, unspecifi ed (kelainan refraksi mata). Sebagian besar puskesmas dengan rasio rujukannya tinggi (>15%) tidak memiliki kelengkapan pelayanan yang wajib ada di puskesmas terutama pelayanan gawat darurat dan laboratorium (66,7%). Jenis tenaga kesehatan kurang dari jumlah yang ada berdasarkan Permenkes 75 tahun 2014 (83,3%). Sarana dan prasarana belum sesuai dengan standar yang harus ada di puskesmas. Obat-obatan yang tidak tersedia di puskesmas menjadi salah satu alasan melakukan rujukan. Saran: Pemerintah harus selalu berupaya melengkapi jenis pelayanan, tenaga kesehatan dan sarana prasarana di puskesmas, agar kemampuan puskesmas dalam memberikan pelayanan menjadi lebih baik lagi.
