Tuberculosis (TB) transmission awareness is crucial for TB prevention in the community. However, efforts to prevent TB transmission from TB patients' perspectives, especially in the rural area, are not well documented. This study aimed to explore the efforts made by TB patients in preventing transmission to the community. This research was qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. Participants in this study were 12 people selected by purposive sampling. Data collection was done by in-depth interviews and recorded. Data analysis was carried out by thematic analysis. This study produced seven themes: perception of TB disease, performing alternative treatments, using personal protective equipment, environmental modification, adhering to treatment, limiting interactions with others, and increasing food intake. Knowledge and awareness of TB patients are still an issue in preventing the transmission of TB in the community. Immediate intervention needs to be made regarding increasing knowledge and awareness of TB patients and the supervision of health workers regularly in handling TB disease in the community.

In Israel, like the rest of Western society, women are still largely responsible for childcare and housework. In homeschooling families, this division is even more prominent. This article explores homeschooling mothers’ perspective on role division. Using the auto-ethnographic-phenomenological approach to qualitative research of individual perceptions and experiences, I recruited a purpose-focused sample of 27 homeschooling mothers. Using interviews and personal logs (or diaries), I obtained data that underwent thematic analysis. The study findings indicate that mothers like being with their kids and that most of them would not want to change places with their partner, but the question arises as to whether there is a real possibility of choosing.

Background and purpose: Partnership between traditional birth attandence (TBA) and midwives is one of the strategies to increase the coverage of childbirth assistance by the health personnel. This partnership seems to be ineffective as still there were TBA performed childbirth assistance. The study aims to find out about the overview and obstacles in the implementation of the partnership between TBA and midwives in the East Manggarai Regency.Methods: The qualitative research with in-depth interviews using open interview guide was conducted on 15 participants who were selected purposively, consisted of two village midwives, five TBAs who partnered with midwives, three TBAs who are not partnered with a midwife, and two participants of community leaders, the religious leaders, the two puerperal women and one policy maker. Data were analyzed by using thematic analysis approach.Results: The results showed that the facilities and supporting infrastructure of partnership were inadequate, funds provided were not enough to finance the implementation of the partnership, there were no regular meetings between the midwives and the traditional healers, coordination was done merely incidental. The division of roles in the treatment of childbirth was clear, but many obstacles were found, namely transportation barriers, economic problems and there were traditional healers who did not want to partner.Conclusion: The overview of partnership between the traditional healers and midwives in childbirth assistance has not gone well and there were still many obstacles found both internally and externally. To optimize this program, sufficient funds should be allocated, transportation should be improved and counseling should be provided to the community to raise awareness of the importance of childbirth assistance by the health personnel.

COVID-19 pandemic raises various challenges faced by health workers in hospitals. This study explored strategies for overcoming challenges in caring for COVID-19 patients at hospitals in Indonesia based on healthcare workers’ experience. In-depth interviews were employed with 28 healthcare workers (physicians and nurses) who were purposively sampled. Data were collected via phone and analysed using the Colaizzi method. Five following challenges were found: difficulties in working with personal protective equipment (PPE), offline training for handling Covid and using PPE not being implemented evenly for all health workers, physical and psychological fatigue, difficulties in carrying out health education and assessment towards patients and families, and limited resources to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, some barriers require support from the government, public and hospital managers. The information gained from research on the strategies for caring for COVID-19 patients can contribute to better preparedness for hospitals and health workers facing the COVID-19 pandemic.

Adequately staffed rural health services improve healthcare delivery and health outcomes, yet this is lacking in rural Ghana. We used a descriptive qualitative design to understand the contextual issues that affect rural practice, in the Upper East Region, Ghana. Sixty-eight in-depth interviews were conducted with healthcare workers and analysed thematically. Four themes were identified: types of postings to rural settings, healthcare workers’ perceptions of their rural postings, perceived enablers and motivators for rural practice, and perceived challenges and barriers to rural practice. While adequate supervision and family proximity are needed to improve the feelings of loneliness, isolation and neglect in rural areas, challenges and barriers such as inadequate security, unstable electricity supply, language barrier, lack of equipment and transport/ambulance have been identified to have negative influence on healthcare workers. The findings highlight the need for healthcare managers to improve fairness and transparency in the posting and reshuffling processes of healthcare workers.

Abstract. Traditional Health Services is a treatment or therapy using methods and medication that is based on the experience and skills of our ancestors that can be accounted for and is in accordance with the norms prevailing in the community. One example is acupressure, ehich is a healing method that uses pressure on certain points of the body or acupuncture points. This type of service has been regulated in various laws on traditional health. However, not all Health Centers provide this service. In South Jakarta City, there are only two Health Centers that provide acupressure services. This is a qualitative research, and aims to analyze the policies and implementation of the implementation of acupressure services in the Health Centers and its obstacles. The data was collected through in-depth interviews and document review. In this study we found that the quality and quantity of health workers trained in acupressure and their comprehension of the program was inadequate. In addition, the room for acupressure is only found in health centers that have provided this service. Communication is still a problem, because there is no regulation socialization regarding the regulation of acupressure services for policy implementers. However, 60% of patients were satisfied with the services provided. Abstrak. Pelayanan Kesehatan Tradisional adalah pengobatan/atau perawatan dengan cara dan obat yang berdasarkan pada pengalaman dan keterampilan turun temurun secara empiris, dapat dipertanggungjawabkan dan diterapkan sesuai dengan norma yang berlaku di masyarakat. Salah satu diantaranya adalah akupresur. Akupresur merupakan suatu cara penyembuhan dengan teknik penekanan titik-titik tertentu pada tubuh (titik-titik akupunktur) yang menggunakan jari-jari tangan ataupun alat bantu seperti batang kayu. Pelayanan jenis ini sudah dituangkan dalam berbagai undang-undang tentang kesehatan tradisional. Namun, tidak semua puskesmas menyelenggarakan layanan ini. Di Kota Jakarta Selatan, hanya terdapat dua Puskesmas yang menyelenggarakan pelayanan akupresur. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif, dan bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebijakan dan implementasi pelaksanaan pelayanan akupresur di Puskesmas serta hambatannya. Metode pengumpulan data melalui wawacara mendalam dan telaah dokumen. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa kualitas dan kuantitas tenaga kesehatan yang terlatih akupresur dan mengerti tentang program masih belum mencukupi. Selain itu, ruangan untuk akupresur hanya terdapat pada puskesmas yang sudah menyediakan pelayanan ini. Komunikasipun masih menjadi masalah, karena belum ada sosialisasi regulasi tentang pengaturan pelayanan akupresur bagi pelaksana kebijakan.

This qualitative research using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) explores the brand experience of Recoletos Education in the Philippines. Two levels of interpretation are generated: that of the participants who make sense of their brand experience as lived experience and that of the researcher who makes sense of the participants’ interpretations. Validated transcripts from in-depth interviews reveal the participants’ convergent and divergent interpretations of their brand experience. Rigid thematic analysis helps construct a master table of themes with four superordinate themes expressed through metaphors: the house on rock, the shepherd with his flock, the good fruit, and the strong winds and the big waves, and these, in turn, correspond to brand attributes, synergy and strategy, brand experience dimensions, and brand challenges, respectively. Finally, these themes reveal and comprise the single overarching theme: the key elements in the brand landscape of Recoletos Education.

Abstract Background Retention of skilled midwives is crucial to reducing maternal mortality in rural areas; hence, Cambodia has been trying to retain at least one secondary midwife who can provide basic emergency obstetric care at every health centre even in rural areas. The factors influencing the retention of midwives, but not solely secondary midwives, have been identified; however, the security issues that affected female health workers during the conflict and the post-conflict years and gender issues have been unexplored. This study explores these and other potential factors influencing secondary midwife retention and their significance. Methods Sequential two-stage qualitative interviews explored influential factors and their significance. The first stage comprised semi-structured interviews with 19 key informants concerned with secondary midwife retention and in-depth interviews with eight women who had deliveries at rural health centres. Based on these interview results, in-depth interviews with six secondary midwives who were deployed to a rural health centre were conducted in the second stage. These midwives ranked the factors using a participatory rural appraisal tool. These interviews were coded with the framework approach. Results Living with one’s parents or husband, accommodation and security issues were identified as more significant influential factors for secondary midwife retention than current salary and the physical condition of the health centre. Gender norms were entrenched in these highly influential factors. The deployed secondary midwives who were living apart from one’s parents or spouse requested transfer (end of retention) to health centres closer to home, as other midwives had done. They feared gender-based violence, although violence against them and the women around them was not reported. The health workers surrounding the midwives endorsed the gender norms and the midwives’ responses. The ranking of factors showed similarities to the interview results. Conclusions This study suggests that gender norms increased the significance of issues with deployments to rural areas and security issues as negative factors on female health workforce retention in rural areas in Cambodia. This finding implies that further incorporating gendered perspectives into research and developing and implementing gender-responsive policies are necessary to retain the female health workforce, thereby achieving SDGs 3 and 5.

Blitar Djadoel Celebration always successful every year. But the success is inseparable from the classic problems that accompany it. In 2019, the trash phenomenon at Blitar Djadoel became viral on social media because of the bad behavior of visitors. Unexpectedly, the phenomenon was increasingly viral due to the action of Kresek Man who picked up trash in the Blitar Djadeol area. This study aims to determine the motive for the action of Kresek Man with the Motive Concept (because motive and in order to motive) introduced by Alfred Schutz. This qualitative research with a phenomenological approach takes data through observation techniques, in-depth interviews, observations on social media and documentation. This study found that there was a motive for Kresek Man actions that were seen in general and specifically. The action motives in general can be known through the reason Kresek Man performs the action as a whole. While special motives can be known through the reason of Kresek Man in selecting super hero costumes and figures, reasons for hiding identities, reasons for documenting the actions and reasons for making trash monuments. This research reveals that in each of these motives there are not always two types of motives, "because" and "in order to". In general, Kresek Man carried out the action caused by the trash phenomenon in Blitar Djadoel which was viral on social media. The action brings hope to educate the public about the importance of disposing of trash in its place.Keyword: Action, Blitar Djadoel, Kresek Man, Motive, Trash.
