This study aims to examine the implementation of policies regarding the use of the e-Kelurahan feature in the Sangu Palu application in Taipa Village. The study employs George C. Edward III’s policy implementation theory, which consists of four dimensions: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. A qualitative descriptive approach was used, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature review involving nine informants. The findings indicate that the implementation of the e-Kelurahan policy has not yet run optimally. The main obstacle lies in the communication aspect, particularly the lack of direct public socialization regarding the use of the application, resulting in low public understanding and limited utilization of digital services. In addition, training for village officials has not been conducted continuously, as it was only provided during the initial implementation stage. Therefore, periodic retraining is needed to improve technical competence and evaluate service performance. Although the aspects of disposition and bureaucratic structure have generally functioned well, they have not been sufficient to optimize digital service utilization. These findings are consistent with the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) evaluation results, which place Palu City in the “sufficient” category, indicating the need for further improvement in digital service implementation.

Introduction: Hypertension is an increase in systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic ≥90 mmHg that has the potential to cause serious complications. The prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia is 34.11% (Riskesdas, 2018), in Central Java 37.57%, and in Tonjong Village 15,951 patients aged ≥15 years were recorded (Tonjong Health Center, 2025). Purpose: To provide direct and comprehensive family nursing care to Ny. T, the family of Tn. D, with hypertension in Tonjong Village, Dukuh Kauman RT 03 RW 04, Tonjong District, Brebes Regency. Method: Case study with a nursing process approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, physical examination, and documentation, conducted on December 26–29, 2025. Results: Assessment revealed that Ny. T complained of dizziness, neck pain, difficulty sleeping, and soreness in both legs with blood pressure of 167/100 mmHg. The family had no knowledge about hypertension. Two diagnoses were established: Acute Pain (D.0077) and Knowledge Deficit (D.0111). Interventions included complementary foot massage therapy to address acute pain and health education on hypertension. After three visits, the Acute Pain diagnosis was partially resolved with a decrease in pain scale from 3 to 2 and blood pressure from 167/100 mmHg to 150/95 mmHg, while the Knowledge Deficit diagnosis was fully resolved. Conclusion: Family Nursing Care with the SDKI, SLKI, and SIKI approach had a positive impact on improving the condition of Ny. T. It is recommended that the client continue foot massage independently, implement the five family health tasks, and routinely utilize health facilities.

Background: Schizophrenia is a serious chronic mental disorder that can affect thinking, perception, feelings, and behavior. Patients with undifferentiated schizophrenia are at risk of experiencing the nursing problem of risk of violent behavior (RPK) due to their inability to control emotions and anger. Based on data from the medical records of RSJD dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province, from August to October 2025, the risk of violent behavior was the highest nursing diagnosis in the Gatotkaca Ward, reaching 56.5%–77% of all inpatients. Objective: To perform nursing care on Tn. K with the main problem of risk of violent behavior due to undifferentiated schizophrenia at RSJD dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province. Methods: This study used a descriptive method with a nursing process approach. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observation, documentation studies, and literature review. Nursing care was provided from November 18 to 22, 2025. Results: Assessment findings on Tn. K (19 years old) with undifferentiated schizophrenia and a history of physical abuse, parental rejection, and family violence revealed four nursing problems: risk of violent behavior (core problem), sensory perceptual disorder: auditory and visual hallucinations, self-concept disorder: low self-esteem, and self-care deficit. Implementation was carried out through nursing strategies (SP) 1 to 4 for risk of violent behavior (physical, medication, verbal, and spiritual control), SP 1 and SP 3 for self-care deficit, and SP 1 to SP 2 for sensory perceptual disorder: hallucinations. All implementation stages were optimally achieved. Conclusion: Nursing evaluation showed that the client was able to achieve cognitive, affective, and psychomotor goals in all implemented SPs. Collaboration with ward nurses was carried out to continue SP 3 and SP 4 for hallucinations and the entire low self-esteem intervention due to time constraints.

This study aims to examine the role of teachers in developing emotional intelligence among adolescent students at SMP Kesatrian Surakarta. Emotional intelligence is an essential aspect that supports academic achievement, social relationships, and character development. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 teachers teaching grades VII to IX, participant observations in classroom settings, and analysis of relevant school documents. The findings reveal that teachers play a strategic role in fostering students’ emotional intelligence through three primary approaches: emotional modeling by demonstrating appropriate emotional management (45%), facilitating emotion-based learning activities (30%), and evaluating students’ emotional intelligence development (25%). These roles significantly contribute to improving students’ self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills. Supporting factors include emotional intelligence training programs provided by the local education authority and the school’s commitment to creating a supportive learning environment. However, major challenges consist of high administrative workloads among teachers (70%) and limited counseling facilities (50%). This study recommends continuous teacher training, the integration of emotional intelligence modules into lesson plans, and collaboration with school psychologists to ensure long-term monitoring and development of students’ emotional competencies. The findings contribute to the enrichment of emotional intelligence literature within the context of Indonesian secondary education.

Thalassemia is an inherited hemolytic anemia caused by genetic abnormalities in chromosomes 11 and 16 that impair globin chain production, leading to insufficient hemoglobin and red blood cells. This study aims to describe nursing care for An. W with thalassemia at the Anggrek 2 Ward of RSUD dr. Soeselo, Tegal Regency. The method used was a descriptive approach through anamnesis, documentation, observation, and literature review. Nursing care was carried out over two days (January 13–14, 2026). Physical examination results on January 12, 2026 showed a pale face, anemic conjunctiva, weakness, CRT >3 seconds, decreased skin turgor, weak peripheral pulse, cold extremities, and laboratory hemoglobin of 5.9 g/dL, with vital signs of pulse 111x/minute, temperature 36.7°C, and respiration 22x/minute. Two nursing diagnoses were established: ineffective peripheral perfusion related to decreased hemoglobin concentration (D.0009), and activity intolerance related to weakness (D.0056). Nursing interventions included circulatory care (I.02079) and energy management (I.05178). Nursing implementation was carried out according to plan. Evaluation on January 14, 2026 showed that both nursing diagnoses were resolved; the patient's hemoglobin improved to 10.7 g/dL after two blood transfusions, and the patient was declared fit for discharge. It is recommended that hospitals establish support groups for thalassemia patients to provide adequate emotional and social support.

Background: Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder characterized by positive psychotic symptoms (such as hallucinations) and negative symptoms accompanied by cognitive decline. Auditory hallucinations represent the most common positive symptom, occurring in more than 75% of patients with schizophrenia. Objective: This study aimed to describe the comprehensive nursing care for Mr. F with a primary problem of perceptual sensory disorder: auditory hallucinations due to undifferentiated schizophrenia at Gatot Kaca Ward, RSJD dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province. Method: This study used a descriptive method with a nursing process approach, including assessment, nursing diagnosis, intervention planning, implementation, and evaluation. Data collection was carried out through interview, observation, and literature study. Results: Nursing problems identified were: perceptual sensory disorder (auditory hallucinations) as the core problem, social isolation (withdrawal) as the causa, risk of violent behavior as the effect, and self-care deficit as an accompanying problem. Nursing interventions were conducted using the implementation strategy (SP) 1, 2, and 3 for hallucinations and SP 1 for self-care deficit. Conclusion: After 4 days of nursing implementation, 2 out of 4 nursing diagnoses were resolved: perceptual sensory disorder (auditory hallucinations) and self-care deficit, while social isolation (withdrawal) and risk of violent behavior remained unresolved. Patients with hallucinations are expected to be able to control hallucinations using the methods that have been taught.

Background: Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a condition characterized by the inability of the heart to pump blood optimally, resulting in the accumulation of fluid in the lungs and other organs. This condition frequently causes ineffective airway clearance due to hypersecretion of the airway. Objective: This study aims to describe the comprehensive nursing care provided to Ny. R with Cardiovascular System Disorder: Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) with the main nursing problem of ineffective airway clearance at the Melati Ward of RSUD Banyumas. Method: This study used a descriptive method through a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, physical examination, observation, and documentation. Results: Two nursing diagnoses were identified: (1) ineffective airway clearance related to airway hypersecretion, and (2) activity intolerance related to an imbalance between oxygen supply and demand. Nursing interventions included airway management and energy management. After two days of implementation (January 27–28, 2026), the first diagnosis was resolved and the second was partially resolved, with continued interventions recommended including monitoring of physical and emotional fatigue, advising bed rest, and monitoring vital signs. Conclusion: Comprehensive nursing care with appropriate interventions can effectively address ineffective airway clearance in CHF patients.

The development of social media has significantly changed human communication patterns. On the one hand, digital media provides a space for freedom of expression, but on the other hand, it has also given rise to digital judgmental cultural phenomena such as Cancel culture and cyberbullying. These phenomena often give rise to verbal violence, public humiliation, and massive social exclusion in cyberspace. This article aims to analyze the phenomena of Cancel culture and cyberbullying from a Christian ethical perspective. The research method used is a literature review with a theological-ethical approach. The results of the study indicate that the digital judgmental culture contradicts the principles of love, respect for human dignity as the Imago Dei, and Christian communication ethics taught in the Bible. Christian ethics views every individual as having value before God, so the practices of humiliation, digital bullying, and public judgment are unjustifiable. The church and believers are called to present constructive, loving, communication in the digital space.

Objective: To describe the application of nursing care in a patient with post-operative sectio caesarea with a history of sectio caesarea indication. Methods: This study used a descriptive method with a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, documentation, and relevant literature review. Results: Assessment of Ny. S revealed three nursing diagnoses: acute pain, knowledge deficit, and risk of infection. Interventions included pain management, family planning (KB) health education, and infection prevention through wound care. Following nursing interventions, the knowledge deficit resolved completely, while acute pain and risk of infection were partially resolved. Conclusion: Systematic nursing care can effectively address nursing problems in post-SC patients and improve patient health outcomes.

This research is motivated by the low poetry writing skills of grade VIII B students at MTs Mujahidin Pontianak, evidenced by a pre-cycle average score of 64% and a classical completeness rate of only 34%. The primary issues include students' difficulties in developing imagination, word choice (diction), and the limited use of innovative learning media. This study aims to improve poetry writing skills through the implementation of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model assisted by Canva digital media. This study employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection phases. The research subjects consisted of 23 students. The results indicated a significant improvement in each cycle. The students' average score increased to 80% in cycle I and reached 87% in cycle II. Classical completeness also rose from 65% in cycle I to 86% in cycle II. The use of Canva was proven to stimulate students' creativity and motivation in expressing ideas into aesthetic poetry. The conclusion of this study is that the integration of the PjBL model and Canva media is effective in improving the quality of both the process and the learning outcomes of poetry writing. It is suggested that teachers adopt this model as an innovative alternative for literature learning in the digital era.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin production or ineffective insulin utilization. The prevalence of DM in Indonesia reached 11.7% in the 2023 National Health Survey, with Brebes Regency recording 568 DM cases in 2025 and increasing to 157 cases in Tonjong Village in January 2026. This case study aims to describe comprehensive nursing care for Ny. M, a 52-year-old patient diagnosed with endocrine system disorder (diabetes mellitus), in the family of Tn. I at Karang Anyar Village, Tonjong District, Brebes Regency. The method used was a case study with data collection through interview, observation, physical examination, blood glucose measurement, and literature review conducted on December 26–28, 2025. The assessment found subjective data: the patient frequently felt fatigue, tingling in both legs, excessive thirst, and increased urination frequency. Objective data: pale and fatigued face, blood pressure 150/100 mmHg, pulse 95x/min, respiration 22x/min, temperature 36.7°C, and random blood glucose (RBG) 155 mg/dl. Two nursing diagnoses were established: blood glucose instability and readiness for enhanced knowledge. Interventions implemented included hyperglycemia management (monitoring blood glucose, dietary education, complementary herbal therapy with ginger and honey), and health education regarding DM complications. Evaluation results showed that after 2 days of nursing visits, fatigue decreased, blood glucose improved (RBG 130 mg/dl), and the patient's knowledge about DM complications was resolved.

High consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) has become an increasing public health concern, particularly among adolescents. Excessive SSB intake is a major risk factor for various non-communicable diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, dental caries, and certain types of cancer. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the level of sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption among adolescents. This study employed a descriptive literature review approach. Data were obtained from national and international journals relevant to the topic of SSB consumption among adolescents. The selected articles were analyzed to identify factors associated with SSB consumption. The findings indicated that SSB consumption among adolescents is influenced by several factors, including individual factors (gender and knowledge), socioeconomic factors (peer influence and pocket money allowance), environmental factors (mass media exposure and beverage availability), and psychological factors (stress level and preference for sweet tastes). This study highlights that SSB consumption is a multifactorial behavior influenced by various interacting determinants. Therefore, comprehensive interventions targeting both individual and environmental factors are needed to reduce SSB consumption among adolescents.

D Dowry (mahar) is an obligation of a groom to his bride in Islamic marriage, symbolizing respect and responsibility. In the Buton community, mahar also develops as a customary tradition known as boka, which carries both symbolic and socio-cultural meanings. This study aims to analyze the concept of mahar according to the Shafi’i school of law and its implementation in Taduasa Village, South Buton Regency. This research uses a qualitative method with data collection techniques including interviews, documentation, and literature review. The findings show that mahar is viewed as a symbol of respect for women and is determined based on lineage and social status. According to the Shafi’i school, such practices are permissible as long as they are based on mutual agreement and do not burden the groom. However, excessively high dowry amounts in some cases may hinder marriage. This study concludes that the mahar tradition in Taduasa Village remains consistent with Shafi’i principles but should be adjusted to the Islamic values of ease and public welfare.
