Diarrhea is the second leading death cause in toddlers after pneumonia. It is a disease that often occurs in seemingly healthy toddlers. In Indonesia, every child has 1.6-2 times diarrhea episodes per year. This study aims to find out how thoroughly the mother's knowledge of diarrhea in toddlers at Sangkunur Community Health Center in 2019. This research was conducted by collecting data through a research questionnaire. The sample is 33 mothers who brought their toddlers to the community health centre. The result is most mothers have poor knowledge of diarrhea in their toddlers. Twenty-two respondents (66.67%) had a good understanding of the diarrhea definition. Twenty-three respondents (67.70%) had a poor understanding of diarrhea causes. Twenty-five respondents (75.76%) had a poor understanding of diarrhea signs and symptoms. Twenty-two respondents (66.67%) had a poor understanding of diarrhea prevention, and 29 respondents (87.88%) had a poor understanding of diarrhea management. The conclusion is community health centres should be more active in providing counselling about diarrhea and visit people's houses to give further information regarding diarrhea.

Childhood injury is a major health issue, with approximately 20,000 children under five hospitalised each year in Australia. The home is a common site for childhood injuries, with some of the more frequent episodes including falls, poisoning, burns, cuts and crush injuries. A regional initiative to develop a coordinated approach towards minimising injuries sustained by children between 0-4 years, resulted in the development of 'Childsafe Now', a health promotion program which involved training of child care providers, and the establishment of several home safety displays in the Eastern metropolitan region of Victoria. One of the home safety displays was developed in a Community Health Centre, utilising a pre-existing child care facility and the multidisciplinary skills of the staff. Community Health Centres were established with a focus on health promotion - encouraging illness and injury prevention through a holistic combination of education, community involvement, behavioural and social modification and multi-disciplinary primary health care services - yet the opportunity to establish a permanent, functional display which combines all of these aspects of health promotion is becoming increasingly rare. However, the skills and knowledge which have traditionally been nurtured within the Community Health Program make Community Health Centres a particularly appropriate location for establishing a Home Safety Display.

Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance is increasing, largely due to the overuse of antibiotics. Patient demographic characteristics can influence rates of antibiotic prescription, but less research has assessed the role of facility-level characteristics. Objective The objective of this study was to examine the prevalence of antibiotic prescriptions for viral-like illness, as well as patient and provider factors that influence antibiotic prescription practices. Methods We conducted an observational cohort study using data from the 2012 National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey. We compared the prevalence of antibiotic prescription for all aetiologies and for viral-like illnesses between community health centres, non-community health centre clinics and emergency departments. Then, we used logistic regression models to compare the odds of antibiotic prescription use by facility and patient characteristics. Results Data came from 630 community health centre visits, 857 non-community health centre outpatient clinic visits and 627 emergency department visits. Compared to patients visiting non-community health centre clinics, patients visiting community health centres and emergency departments for any aetiology were more likely to receive antibiotic prescriptions. Patients with viral-like illnesses were less likely to receive antibiotics at community health centres and exhibited similar odds of receiving antibiotics at emergency departments. Certain patient demographics (age, race/ethnicity and payment source) were associated with variation in overall antibiotic prescription, but these factors were mostly unassociated with antibiotic prescription for viral-like illnesses. Conclusions The care setting that patients visit may influence their odds of receiving antibiotics. Initiatives addressing overuse of antibiotics should be mindful of facility- and patient-based characteristics when designing interventions.

Preventive Behaviour

Background: COVID-19 in Diabetes Mellitus (DM) patients are at higher risk for severe complications than people without DM. Preventive behaviour is the best way to avoid COVID-19 infection for DM patients due to its bad impact, such as severe symptoms requiring intensive care, leading to death. Objective: This study aims to analyse the COVID-19 preventive behaviour among DM comorbidity patients in Palembang. Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2021 to May 2021 using a questionnaire to diabetic patients at six community health centres in Palembang. The questionnaire has four sections: patient characteristics, knowledge, attitude, and COVID-19 prevention behaviour. A proportional random sampling technique was used to determine the number of samples according to the data on diabetic patients in each health centre. The total sample was 183 respondents from 1.266 total population diabetic patients in six community health centres. Respondents were diabetic patients aged ³ 18 years old and willing to fill out the questionnaire. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate statistical analyses were used to analyse the data. Results: More respondents have good knowledge (50.3%), negative attitude (57.3%), and poor COVID-19 preventive behaviour (53.0%). The findings revealed a statistical significance between knowledge (P-value = 0.0001), attitude (P-value = 0.0001), and educational status (P-value = 0.0001) with COVID-19 preventive behaviour. Furthermore, knowledge is the most determinant factor of COVID-19 preventive behaviour (PR= 7.597, 95% CI: 3.701 – 15.597). Conclusion: According to this study, diabetic patients with poor knowledge are at greater risk of having poor COVID-19 prevention behaviours. COVID-19 prevention programs, especially health education programs at the community health centre, need to be improved to ensure that diabetic patients adopt reasonable and appropriate COVID-19 prevention practices.

Health Care Consumer

Using past measures of consumer feedback, the aim of the present study was to construct a consumer opinion survey for use in community health centre settings; to pilot the survey instrument across a number of community health centres; and to validate the instrument. A total of 950 consumers attending one of six targeted services (physiotherapy, dental, podiatry, counselling/social work, dietetics, and speech pathology) across four northern metropolitan community health centres in Victoria were invited to participate. Returned surveys were analysed using principal component analysis and the extracted scales were tested for internal consistency and validity. Out of the 950 surveys distributed 471 were returned (response rate of 50%). The survey instrument was found to measure consumer opinion regarding satisfaction with centre environment and satisfaction with service provision. The centre environment scale consisted of one factor, with a Cronbach alpha of .80. The service provision scale consisted of two factors: 'aspects of the service provider' and 'benefits of the visit'. Reliability for the total scale was .93. The two scales correlated moderately with a validity item measuring overall satisfaction. The Primary Health Care Consumer Opinion Survey is a reliable and valid measure, which provides the potential for the establishment of norms to assess consumer opinion.

Transitional Phase

In Victoria, community health centres are undergoing major changes. In this paper, a study of service and funding agreements, their changed purposes, and how the practices surrounding them have also changed, is reported. The study provides some insights into the dynamics of the contractual model of health system management. The information was obtained from the service and funding agreements of community health centres, interviews with staff of the Department of Human Services, and interviews with community health centre managers. At the end of 1995, community health centres were still in a transitional phase. They were changing from being locally focused, multi-disciplinary organisations that approached health as a social and technical issue to ones that were centrally focused, still multi-disciplinary but increasingly attending to the technical provision of services. There were, however, many ambiguities in the system that allowed services to resist the changes that were considered least desirable. To a degree they de-coupled internal operations from the external presentation of them.

The Relationship

Every pregnancy and childbirth is a risky event, therefore every pregnant and childbirth woman must be as close as possible to basic emergency obstetric services. Health service units that are close and affordable to the community Community Health Centreare expected to be able to provide basic emergency neonatal obstetric services. Deli Serdang Regency has a high number of maternal mortality rates (AKI) and there are still cases of maternal deaths due to delays in handling due to geographical factors which is one of the causes of the low utilization of PONED (Pelayanan Obstetri Neonatal Emergency Dasar) Community Health Centre. The study aims to analyze the relationship between geographic access and the use of PONED in Hamparan Perak Health Center, Deli Serdang Regency.This type of research is an explanatory survey with cross sectional approach. The study was conducted in the working area of the Hamparan Perak Health Center with a sample of 100 pregnant, childbirth and postpartum women obtained using the proportional random sampling method. The independent variable in the study is geographic access. The dependent variable in research is the use of PONED. Data obtained using a questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The results showed a significant relationship between geographic access and the use of PONED (OR = 9,615; 95% CI = 2,974 to 31,088; p = 0.001). Pregnant, childbirth and childbirth mothers who have an assessment of good geographical access will use the PONED Community Health Centre.
