Pengaruh Kualitas Pelayanan Terhadap Kepuasaan Pasien BPJS Poli Penyakit dalam Rumah Sakit Bhayangkara Pontianak

A hospital is a public facility owned by the government or private sector which has a very strategic role in efforts to improve public health services. The new paradigm of health services requires hospitals to provide quality services according to patients' needs and desires while still referring to professional and medical codes of ethics. Quality is the core of the survival of an institution. Therefore, hospitals are required to always maintain consumer trust by improving service quality so that consumer satisfaction increases. This study aims to analyze the influence of service quality on patient satisfaction at Bhayangkara Hospital, Pontianak City. The research method used in this research is a quantitative method to determine the quality of service that has the greatest impact on community satisfaction. Samples were taken from 95 patients. Data collection techniques use observation and questionnaires. The results of the research show that the influence of service quality on BPJS patient satisfaction in internal medicine poly health services at Bhayangkara Hospital, Pontianak, most of the respondents are in the satisfactory category and a small number of respondents are in the unsatisfactory category. The results of this research show that service quality, which consists of the variables reliability (X1), responsiveness (X2), assurance (X3) and empathy (X5), has a significant effect on patient satisfaction, while the tangibles variable (X4) has no significant effect. Then the variable with the most dominant influence on patient satisfaction is the empathy variable (X5). And to improve service quality, researchers hope that Bhayangkara Hospital will test these variables, especially those that have a negative influence (tangibles X4) so that they can comply with the rules and mechanisms for improving service quality on patient satisfaction. The researcher's advice to Bhayangkara Pontianak Hospital is that nurses at Bhayangkara Pontianak Hospital should be able to maximize services according to the promised time, increase trust and responsiveness to patient complaints, and pay attention to the physical facilities of the Bhayangkara Pontianak Hospital Internal Medicine Clinic.

Community organizing in social work and progressive urban planning – interdisciplinary challenges and opportunities

ABSTRACT This article examines aspects of community organizing within social work and progressive or transformative planning within urban planning, with an implicit question as to whether these two practices within their respective professions can work together to achieve progressive goals. For each profession, I first review the professional histories and the ethical codes of each discipline, next discuss how these more activist trends emerged, and then compare the two practices to suggest possibilities for joint efforts toward the social justice goals embedded in each defining statement. I discuss the context for both types of work, as well as the means by which individuals in each discipline work toward progressive goals. Questions I consider include how similar the social justice orientations within their disciplines are, and how community organizers and progressive planners can work together for social justice goals.

A synthesis of social responsibility theory and fact-checking ethics codes

ABSTRACT Building on the various revisions of research works on fact-checking activities, the fact – checkers’ norms and the social responsibility theory of press, the proposed model articulates eight functions of the social responsibility of fact-checkers.

It also contributes to shaping ethical norms for these organisations, emphasising pragmatic objectivity, knowledge-based journalism, and explanatory reporting.

Abuse of Authority Against Judicial Power in Constitutional Court Decision No.90/PUU-XXI/2023

Each law enforcer has its own authority according to what has been regulated in Indonesian laws and regulations. These provisions are stated in the Judicial Power Law No. 48 of 2009 which states that power judiciary according to The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia is independent power . However, what has happened in Indonesia recently seems to be diminishing justice and putting aside codes of ethics in the world of law. The facts that occurred in the Constitutional Court decision No. 90 of 2023 regarding the age limit for presidential and vice presidential candidates were considered a decision that violated the code of ethics because there was a conflict of interest. In fact, the decision was built based on less than rational legal reasoning, resulting in a decision that was considered problematic. Based on the background description above, problems arise in the form of how a judge's authority should be in deciding cases in accordance with what is contained in the legislation. Then what are the legal remedies given in the form of sanctions to judges who are proven to be abusing their authority? This research uses a normative juridical approach, namely by looking at the rules and principles applied in the judiciary in Indonesia. The administration of government must be based on the principles of legality, protection, human rights and AUPB, especially in terms of the principle of not abusing power. Article 10 paragraph (1) letter e and the explanation of Law Number 30 of 2014 stipulate the principle of not abusing one's own authority. This basis requires every government agency and official not to exceed, abuse or confuse their authority for personal or other interests.

Moral courage of emergency nurses in care-limited environments: A mixed-methods study.

Professional ethics in nursing exist to guide care and allow for decision-making to be patient-centered. In the current medicolegal landscape post-Roe and in light of bans on gender-affirming care, the decision-making processes of emergency nurses in the clinical environment of care as informed by both professional and personal ethics are an important area of inquiry. The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of moral courage to decision-making by emergency nurses. A mixed-methods exploratory sequential approach was used, using a standard demographics form and the Nurses Moral Courage Scale to collect quantitative data. These data were used to inform an interview guide for qualitative data collection. Situational analysis was used to analyze the interview data. Prior to recruitment, this study was reviewed and approved by the University of Massachusetts IRB (#00003909). Participants were provided with an informed consent document at the time of registration and at the time of interview; participants provided both signed consent and verbal assent. Participants were assigned study codes to maintain anonymity and data were maintained in a secure University cloud. US-based emergency nurses working in environments with care limitations. 70% of respondents reported that they would speak up if they were aware of a situation that was ethically challenging. Respondents reported that it was fairly easy or very easy to defend their values when addressing ancillary staff, coworkers, authorities outside the organization, patients, and patient families. Respondents reported challenges in defending their professional values to charge nurses, physicians, or administrators. In response to a serious ethical problem, 65.8% of respondents answered that they would bring up the problem for discussion, 21.1% would file an internal report, and 13.2% would report externally. Interview participants reported significant social and professional barriers to acting in response to an ethical violation. Willingness to act centered on personal values and not professional codes of ethics. While emergency nurses in this study reported high perceived levels of moral courage, they also reported low willingness to act directly, citing burnout and significant social and professional barriers. Adherence to professional codes of ethics is not the primary driver of moral courage.

The Role of Engineering Ethics in Mitigating Corruption in Infrastructure Systems Delivery

Indications that corruption mitigation in infrastructure systems delivery can be effective are found in the literature. However, there is an untapped opportunity to further enhance the efficacy of existing corruption mitigation strategies by placing them explicitly within the larger context of engineering ethics, and relevant policy statements, guidelines, codes and manuals published by international organizations. An effective matching of these formal statements on ethics to infrastructure systems delivery facilitates the identification of potential corruption hotspots and thus help establish or strengthen institutional mechanisms that address corruption. This paper reviews professional codes of ethics, and relevant literature on corruption mitigation in the context of civil engineering infrastructure development, as a platform for building a structure that connects ethical tenets and the mitigation strategies. The paper assesses corruption mitigation strategies against the background of the fundamental canons of practice in civil engineering ethical codes. As such, the paper’s assessment is grounded in the civil engineer’s ethical responsibilities (to society, the profession, and peers) and principles (such as safety, health, welfare, respect, and honesty) that are common to professional codes of ethics in engineering practice. Addressing corruption in infrastructure development continues to be imperative for national economic and social development, and such exigency is underscored by the sheer scale of investments in infrastructure development in any country and the billions of dollars lost annually through corruption and fraud.

Using the classic trolley problem to teach AI students and researchers about their role as moral agents, and why they should be subject to moral scrutiny

AbstractThis commentary proposes a means of teaching students – particularly computer science students – about their role as moral agents, who, on account of this role, are necessarily subject to moral scrutiny. It utilizes the classic Trolley Problem; but instead of focusing on the morality of the decision the bystander makes, it focuses, initially, on the role of the bystander as an agent of action, capable of effecting change and then, more importantly, as a moral agent whose action capabilities are subject to moral scrutiny. I believe that using the Trolley Problem in this way provides those tasked with teaching ethics to computer science students (but also others) a practical means of drawing attention not simply to whatever guidelines (e.g., code of ethics) have been produced in relation to AI and IT research, but to the fact that students and researchers alike are moral agents, however reluctant they may be to embrace this fact in the context of their studies and/or research.

Konstitusionalitas Pembatasan Hak Mantan Narapidana untuk Menjadi Notaris

This article aimsto discussthe juridical analysis of the provisions which state that former convicts cannot become notaries. The type of method used is normative juridical with a statutory approach, conceptual approach and historical approach. Legal material sources consist of primary and secondary legal materials, analysis techniques using grammatical and theological interpretation. The provisions of Law Number 2 of 2014 in Article 3 letter h which states that the condition for becoming a notary isto never be subject to imprisonment for a minimum of five years or more is unclear and unfair. Limiting the length of sanctions regardless of the type of criminal act is not appropriate, there should be certain types of criminal acts related to the notary profession or the code of ethics that is the reference. In several regulations there are criminal offenses that carry a sentence of less than five years, however the criminal offenses committed are closely related to the professionalism that a notary must possess. This provision also does not provide a sense of justice because someone who has served his sentence means that he has received sanctions for the actions he has committed and has the right to get a decent job as regulated in Article 27 and Article 28 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.

Managing Substance Use Disorders and Addiction: How to Integrate Professionalism and Ethics with the Complexity of Diagnosis and Therapy

Physicians and other healthcare staff who work with the patients having substance use disorders (SUDs) and addiction have to deal with different and complex scenario invariably in comparison to other healthcare providers dealing with regular medical services sought by the patients. Hence, the unconventional nature of practice regarding patients of SUDs and addiction and the diverse range of backgrounds among substance use workers, e.g., psychiatrist, general physician, nurse, psychotherapist, counsellor, social worker, and public health specialist highlights the universal relevance of being more professional and more ethical in practice. They are expected to demonstrate a variety of ethical and professional competences to safeguard themselves and others involved. Clinical team engaged in such activities requires specific ethical training that can help them face specific ethical dilemmas and guide through deeper consideration of those pressing and complex issues, using specific framework, professional guidelines, or institutional management approaches. Professional societies and accrediting institutions should apply their authority to establish practice standards, competencies, regulatory procedures, and codes of ethics to help guide practice and protect public trust and confidence. For the team involved in practice, it is important to become familiar with and adhere to the principles and values that define professionalism and ethical conduct in care for patients suffering from SUDs and addiction. The review paper aims to examine the intersection of professionalism and ethics with the complexity of diagnosis and therapy in this specific area of practice. Besides, some frameworks will be highlighted which may help healthcare providers to foster ethical decision making. It is also a modest effort to show some new insights for improving the quality of care in addiction and mental health by the professional team and healthcare organization from both clinical and operational viewpoint.

Political action in nursing and medical codes of ethics.

Political action has a long history in the health workforce. There are multiple historical examples, from civil disobedience to marches and even sabotage that can be attributed to health workers. Such actions remain a feature of the healthcare community to this day; their status with professional and regulatory bodies is far less clear, however. This has created uncertainty for those undertaking such action, particularly those who are engaged in what could be termed 'contentious' forms of action. This study explored how advocacy and activism were presented in nursing and medical codes of ethics, comparing disciplinary and temporo-spatial differences to understand how such action may be promoted or constrained by codes. The data for this study comes from 217 codes of ethics. Because of the size of the corpus and to facilitate analysis, natural language processing was utilised, which allowed for an automated exploration of the data and for comparisons to be drawn between groups. This was complemented by a manual search and contextualisation of the data. While there were noticeable differences between medical and nursing codes, overall, advocacy, activism and even politics were rarely discussed explicitly in most codes. When such action was spoken about, this was often vague and imprecise with codes speaking of 'political action' and 'advocacy' in general terms. While some codes were far more forthright in what they meant about advocacy or broader political action (i.e., Nursing codes in Denmark, Norway, Canada) more forceful language that spoke in specific terms or in terms of oppositional or specific actions (e.g., civil disobedience or marches) was almost completely avoided. These results are discussed in relation to the broader literature on codes and the normative questions they raise, namely whether such action should be included in codes of ethics at all.

Educator Ethics: Abdul Fattah Abu Ghuddah's Perspective In The Book of Ar-Rosuul Al-Mu'allim Wa Asaalibuhu Fi At-Ta'liim

This study examines the ethics of educators according to Sheikh Abdul Fattah Abu Ghuddah in the book "Al-Mu'allim Wa Asalibuhu fi At-Ta'lim" and its relevance to the code of ethics for teachers in Indonesia. The main objective is to explore the suitability of the ethics discussed by Abu Ghuddah with the code of ethics for teachers in Indonesia, as well as the adaptation and integration of the religious values taught to enrich the code of ethics. This research is a concept analysis using primary data from the book "Ar-Rasul Al-Mu'allim Wa Asalibuhu fi At-Ta'lim" by Abu Ghuddah and its translation by Abu Husamuddin, as well as secondary data from various relevant literatures. Data collection went through four stages: preparation, bibliography preparation, time management, and research recording, with literature techniques that included understanding the topic, searching for supporting information, organizing reading materials, and recording in-depth research. Data analysis was conducted using the content analysis method. The results show that the Indonesian teachers' code of ethics emphasizes compassion, integrity, professionalism, and justice and is highly relevant to Abu Ghuddah's principles. Although Abu Ghuddah's approach is more religious, the values can be adapted and integrated into the more secular Indonesian teachers' code of ethics. This research enriches the code of ethics for educators in Indonesia by combining values. The adaptation of these values in the multicultural and pluralistic context of Indonesia can create a more meaningful, inclusive learning environment that is in line with the principles of inclusive education, producing a generation that is intellectually intelligent and has strong morals and ethics.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AS CHALLENGE AND PROBLEM (ANALYTICAL REIEW)

The paper is aimed at the objective analysis of positive and negative sides connected to the pragmatic and scientific investigation of Artificial Intelligence technologies.
