Pharmaceutical services in hospitals must comply with the standards set forth in Minister of Health Regulation No. 72 of 2016 to ensure the safe, effective, and efficient use of medications. One crucial aspect of clinical pharmacy services is evaluating the appropriateness of drug use in accordance with the National Formulary (Fornas), particularly in antihypertensive therapy, which is widely used in clinical practice. This study aims to evaluate the conformity level of antihypertensive drug use with Fornas at Bandung-Based General Hospital and analyze its economic impact. This research is a retrospective descriptive study that collects data on antihypertensive drug use from various service units from August to October 2024. The analysis was conducted by calculating the percentage of conformity based on the number of drug units used compared to the Fornas list, as well as assessing the economic value of the drugs utilized. The results showed a very high adherence rate to Fornas, with the highest conformity percentage reaching 99.88% in September 2024 and the lowest at 99.81% in August 2024, surpassing the minimum compliance standard of 80% set by the Hospital Minimum Service Standards. These findings reflect the effectiveness of the National Formulary policy and the hospital's commitment to rational therapy. Collaboration among pharmacists, doctors, and the medical team, along with continuous education, is necessary to ensure safe, regulatory-compliant, and efficient therapy.

Transparency in budgeting and the implementation of village funds has been conducted through village meetings and village information media, but has not yet reached the stage of impact evaluation. Community participation is quite active in planning and implementation, but minimal in the evaluation stage. Challenges faced include limited human resources, infrastructure, and low community participation. Strengthening human resource capacity, improving information transparency, and optimizing inclusive village meetings are needed to support better village fund management.

This study aims to determine and evaluate the BPJS Health Service Policy in the VIP Room of Edelweiss, Dr. M. M. Dunda Limboto Regional General Hospital, Gorontalo Regency. The research method used is qualitative descriptive. The results of the study indicate that several indicators of the effectiveness of the BPJS Health service policy in the VIP Room of Edelweiss, Dr. M. M. Dunda Limboto Regional General Hospital have not been running optimally. In terms of effectiveness, the administrative procedures are still considered unclear and not easy by patients and families, especially with the time limit for processing BPJS only 3 x 24 hours. The adequacy indicator is running quite well, but administrative information is only delivered verbally without written support, so patients or their families often have to ask again for the information needed. In terms of equality, although there are differences in facilities and comfort between the VIP room and the general care room, equality in processing BPJS administration is maintained. Responsiveness is considered good; administrative officers are considered fast and precise in providing solutions to obstacles faced by patients. However, in the accuracy indicator, some informants felt that the time given for administrative management was not yet in accordance with needs, especially for patient families who live far away or have other activities. This indicates the need for a re-evaluation of the time provisions and the delivery of more complete and written information.

This study aims to examine and describe the extent to which the optimization of public services in the transportation sector is implemented by the Gorontalo Regency Transportation Agency. The approach used is qualitative research with descriptive methods, in order to deeply understand the practices of transportation policies at the regional level. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation of the activities and policies implemented. The results of the study indicate that the optimization of public services in the transportation sector has been taking place progressively based on three main indicators. First, service effectiveness is reflected in the implementation of regulations in accordance with the law, such as controlling private vehicles parked haphazardly to reduce congestion and routine inspections of public vehicles to ensure safety aspects. Second, efficiency is achieved through technical supervision of vehicles that are not roadworthy, including brake conditions, tire wear, and completeness of route permits, as part of efforts to reduce operational risks and improve service quality. Third, productivity increases through the use of digital technology in socialization activities and the provision of supporting infrastructure such as bus stops, terminals, adequate roads, and traffic signs. These findings indicate that the Gorontalo Regency Transportation Agency has implemented a transportation service optimization strategy that is adaptive and oriented to community needs.

This study aims to obtain an overview of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices at the Fisheries Service of Gorontalo Regency. A descriptive qualitative approach was used in this study, with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that planning is carried out through a recruitment process that includes identifying needs, preparing job descriptions, and the orientation process for new employees. In terms of organization, service digitalization is applied to accelerate administration, increasing HR capacity through training, and involving the community in fisheries policies, which have been proven to increase service efficiency by up to 80%. However, implementation has not been optimal due to limited time, resources, communication constraints, and budget constraints. Work supervision involves leaders, supervisory positions, and other relevant parties, with leaders playing a central role in ensuring employee performance. Motivation is provided by providing opportunities for skill development and rewards for performance. Performance evaluations are carried out periodically to measure the achievement of organizational targets and goals. These findings provide important insights into efforts to improve the quality of human resource management in the public service sector.

The results of the study indicate that the Accessibility of Management Information System Services at the Library and Archives Service of Gorontalo Regency has not been running well, where of the three indicators measured there are two indicators that are not fully optimal, namely data access time and data accuracy, this can be seen from the many complaints from service users about the slow responsiveness of data or information needed by service users and frequent errors or inconsistencies between the data or information needed by service users and what is presented by the Management Information System. While one other indicator, namely access flexibility, is considered optimal, this can be seen from the time and method of the information access process which can really adjust to the conditions of service users, namely it can be accessed anytime and anywhere and in any way such as accessed via laptop, computer or smartphone.

This study aims to evaluate and develop SISKEUDES implementation in Sindangheula Village through the lens of Everett M. Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through interviews with the village head and financial affairs officer. The findings indicate that SISKEUDES has been adopted primarily due to its relative advantage in replacing manual systems, resulting in more structured and accountable financial management. However, the complexity of the system, particularly in terms of technical usage and cognitive adaptation, presents challenges for village apparatus with limited digital literacy. The study highlights that successful adoption depends not only on the innovation's superiority but also on institutional readiness and continuous support. It concludes that while SISKEUDES brings significant improvements, its sustainability requires regular training and the institutionalization of digital competence within the village governance system.

The development of technology and science has brought about significant transformations in religious education, especially Islamic Religious Education. Technology plays a role as an effective means to introduce and deliver religious material in a modern and interesting way, especially for the millennial generation who have a high tendency towards the use of digital and audio-visual media. The use of audio-visual-based technology such as learning videos, as well as internet technology such as e-learning and email, facilitates the process of distance and interactive learning, thereby increasing students' understanding of religious material. [1} In addition, digital technology opens up wide opportunities in the accessibility of Islamic educational resources globally, allowing individuals from various regions to access Islamic literature and interact directly with educators and fellow students through online platforms and social media. This enriches the experience of religious learning with methods that are more creative, interactive, and in accordance with the times. However, challenges such as the authenticity of content and the gap in access to technology also need to be anticipated so that the benefits of technology can be optimal. The development of technology in religious education also encourages the renewal of teaching methods and the improvement of teacher and student skills in using technology effectively. A constructive and participatory learning approach is expected to shape students' motivation to practice religious teachings in everyday life. Thus, the integration of technology and science in religious education contributes to the achievement of educational goals that are relevant to the needs of the digital era and globalization

Psychological assessment in the context of guidance and counseling is a crucial process for understanding the client's condition, potential, and needs comprehensively. However, in its implementation, ethical aspects become the main foundation that cannot be overlooked, particularly confidentiality and objectivity. This article aims to thoroughly examine the ethical principles in the implementation of psychological assessments, focusing on two main aspects: (1) how to maintain the confidentiality of client assessment results to prevent misuse of the obtained information and protect individual privacy, and (2) identifying the challenges faced by counselors in maintaining the objectivity of assessments and formulating practical solutions to address them. This research method employs a literature review approach and focuses on two key roles of the above concepts.

Psychological assessment is a crucial component in the practice of guidance and counseling, because it provides an objective foundation for counselors in understanding psychological, emotional, and behavioral conditions. Through the assessment process, counselors can identify client problems more accurately, and design interventions that are appropriate to the client's needs. the article comprehensively discusses psychological assessments in supporting the counseling process, types of assessments that are often used in counseling practice, such as interviews, observations, questionnaires, and psychometric tests, such as personality tests, intelligence tests, and depression scales. the selection of assessment tools that can be adjusted to the goals and characteristics of the client, can accelerate guidance and counseling to be more focused and meaningful.

Psychological tests are important tools used to uncover various aspects of an individual's personality according to the needs of psychological assessment. One widely used form of psychological testing is the personality test, which is generally divided into two main types: objective and projective. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of both types of tests in uncovering aspects of an individual's personality by comparing their respective advantages and disadvantages. The research method used was a qualitative method with a literature review approach, namely through a review of various scientific articles, research journals, and relevant literature sources discussing the use of objective and projective personality tests. The results show that each type of test has distinct characteristics and functions. Objective tests are considered more reliable, efficient, and easy to interpret, while projective tests provide a more in-depth picture of an individual's personality dynamics but require more subjective interpretation. Furthermore, this study also analyzes the ideal conditions and timing for use of both types of tests and presents case studies of the application of each test in the context of psychological assessment.

This study examines the use of nominee agreements as instruments of fraud within Indonesian foundations that operate private educations.  This research focuses on how foundation organs use the foundations to buy land assets for themselves and evade liability. The problem addressed is the gap between civil‐law façade and underlying criminal intent, whereby Patrons, Management, and Supervisors transfer land ownership out of the foundation’s name through a simulated agreement called nominee contracts. The research aims to analyze how these contracts facilitate systemic fraud and to propose a legal framework for holding both individuals and the foundation itself criminally accountable. A doctrinal‐normative method is employed, involving analyses of statutory provisions (Foundation Law, the old and the new Criminal Code), internal regulations, and key court decisions (e.g., Gunung Muria University, Al‐Hilaal Ambon, Morning Star). Findings reveal that nominee agreements consistently conceal intent to defraud, that existing legal provisions are underutilized or applied piecemeal, and that criminal courts have been reluctant to dissolve offending foundations despite clear evidence of strafbaarfeit (criminal act) by the foundation. The main synthesis highlights the necessity of a consistent approach by the law enforcement and the court to interpret nominee‐based transfers as criminal acts to prevent further asset diversion. The study concludes that integrating civil and criminal frameworks, along with strengthening oversight and enabling immediate dissolution of fraudulent foundations, is essential to safeguard public interest and restore trust in the nonprofit sector.

This socialization aims to develop the potential to see business opportunities and increase work effectiveness in understanding Genjer cultivation and ease of marketing using AIDA IoT technology in the Ulugabe village community. The problems studied are 1) How is the quality of the Genjer plant condition in the Ulugabe village community? 2) How does the community handle Genjer cultivation in Ulugabe Village? 3) How does the community manage Genjer plants to marketing? The research method used is introducing socialization with a Plant Science and IoT Technology approach. Where data collection is carried out through observation, presentation and documentation studies. The results of the observation stated that the level of understanding of Plant Science and Genjer plant processing as a business still needs to be improved, especially in marketing techniques that can be more efficient using AI technology.

The socialization of this research resulted in a thought design to see the genjer plant as a business opportunity with ease in the application of IoT technology which is expected to increase productivity, quality of entrepreneurship, and application of science in the Ulugabe village community.

Mental health has become a crucial issue in modern life, marked by social pressures, crises of meaning, and increasing psychological disorders. In this context, Sufistic psychology emerges as a spiritual approach capable of addressing the inner needs of modern humans. Sufism emphasizes soul purification, self-control, and closeness to God as a foundation for achieving inner peace. Through practices such as dhikr (remembrance of God), muhasabah (self-reflection), tafakkur (contemplation), and tawakal (trust in God), Sufism serves as an effective spiritual coping mechanism for managing stress and strengthening psychological resilience. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a library research method to examine the role of Sufistic psychology in building mental health. The findings indicate that Sufistic psychology is not only curative but also preventive and transformative. However, its implementation still faces challenges, including mystical stigmas, low spiritual literacy, and clashes between traditional and modern values. Therefore, an integrative and contextual approach is needed so that Sufistic values can make a real contribution to improving mental health in contemporary society.
