Peran Dinas Perikanan Dalam Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Nelayan Dan Implikasinya Terhadap Ketahanan Ekonomi Keluarga Nelayan (Studi Pada Kampung Nelayan Di Kecamatan Bula, Kabupaten Seram Bagian Timur, Provinsi Maluku)

ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyzed the role of Department of Fishery of Seram Bagian Timur Regency using the Siagian theory in 2003, through 5 role indicators namely the role of stabilizer, innovator, modernizr, pioneer and implementer as well as the implications of the role of the service on the economic resilience of fishermen's families which included: place of residence (home ownership) , income, education costs and health insurance in Bula Fisherman's Village SBT Regency.This research was a qualitative descriptive study, with data collection techniques using qualitative methods with samples of 6 informants from the officers in the Fisheries Services and 5 fishers informants representing 3 fish farmer groups. The data collection techniques used were (1) observation (2) interviews, and (3) documentation with data analysis techniques through qualitative description analysis which drew conclusions analytically through the stages of data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing.The results of the study indicated that Department of Fishery of SBT Regency had not carried out its main duties and functions optimally. The limitations of its implementation, both the role and implementation of policies, were still hampered by a number of factors, namely budget constraints, low quality of human resources, government policies and inadequate facilities and infrastructure. So, that the local governments had not been effective in managing and utilizing fishery resources. The implication of the role of Office of Fishery of SBT in empowering fishermen showed that it still had not had a positive influence on the economic condition of the fishermen's families, most of the fishing families had family economic resilience that was included in the less resilient category, namely there were still many family of fisherman who lived in poverty. In order to supporedt the success of the role of the Department of Fisheries, a number of supporting factors were needed that could encourage the regional economy through marine and fisheries-based regional development, namely fishery resources, human resources and government policies (budget).

Language Kinship as Regional Conflict Resolution in West Nusa Tenggara: Comparative Historical Linguistic Study

West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) has two kinds of related ethnic languages, namely the Sasak language (BS) and the Samawa language (BSw). As related languages, the two ethnic groups often come into conflict. Conflicts are generally caused by the lack of a good and effective communication process. This study investigates the phenomenon of linguistic kinship and describes various phonemic features as a solution for resolving regional conflicts. The research uses Linguistics Historical Comparative (LHC) Theory with synchronic studies. The research method used phenomenological principles with qualitative descriptive research. The object of study is BS and BSw. The research instrument used Swadesh vocabulary and Lexicostatistical parameters. Data collection was conducted by documentation. Data analysis applied qualitative description technique includes reduction, presentation, and verification. The results showed that 68 words were the same, 52 words were similar, and 87 were different. Word relations based on parallel and serial structures of kin with contradictory meanings, such as: /apa/ (a~ə/-#), /anjing/ (c~s/#V-V#), /baru/ (a~ǝ/#C-C# and Ø~?/-#), /benar/ (k~t/#-), /benih/ (ɛ~i/#C-C#), and /bunuh/ (Ø~bǝ/#- and ?~ Ø/-#). In syllables and phonemes, BS and BSw have variants /e/ > [ǝ],[e],[Ɛ]. The percentage of relatives, 58%, is of language family status, both genetically and proto-Austronesian. The period of separation of the two languages is 1292 years, to be precise, occurred in 730 AD. The contribution of similarity is phonemically observed through three dimensions of inter-ethnic conflict resolution: signification, domination, and legitimacy. The research findings are in the form of formulations/concepts of solutions for resolving regional conflicts through the kinship of phonemic features of the Austronesian language, the traditions/culture and beliefs of speakers, and the social system of society. It is a reference for preventing regional conflicts in NTB in particular and Indonesia in general.

Influences on the uptake of a population health approach to sexual health programs in Ontario public health units: a qualitative descriptive study.

AimPopulation-level prevention initiatives are the cornerstone of public health practice. However, despite this normative practice, sexual health programming within public health has not utilized this approach to the same extent as other public health programs. Understanding requirements to put a population-level approach into practice is needed. The objective of this study was to explore the barriers and facilitators experienced by sexual health programs and services within public health when implementing a population health approach.Subject design and methodsThe principles of qualitative description guided all sampling, data collection and analysis decisions. Data collection involved in-depth semi-structured interviews with 12 sexual health managers and/or supervisors from ten Ontario public health units. Directed content analysis was used to code and synthesize the data. Data collection and analysis was guided using constructs from the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.ResultsFactors that served as either barriers and facilitators to implementing a population health approach, were mainly in the inner and outer setting domains of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Participants identified the presence of community partnerships, adequate staff training on population health, and access to data on population health served as facilitators. In comparison, barriers to implementation included a lack of resources (human, financial) and clinicians’ value of and preferences for delivering services at the individual clinic level.ConclusionSome clear barriers and facilitators influenced if staff in sexual health programs and services could implement a population health approach. Results indicate where public health resources need to be enhanced to move toward a population health approach and provide insight into what worked and should be considered by public health organizations.

Feminism in Education Management

In this day and age, when life becomes increasing difficult, it is unavoidable to encourage women to participate in helping the welfare of the family. It needs positive attention and support. The role of women who have the urge to work in Indonesia as a country that is predominantly Muslim at this time can no longer be judged solely as an excuse to seek freedom, but as a noble endeavor of a servant of Allah who can raise the dignity of himself and his family. The role of women who are often demeaned is what drives the emergence of the feminism movement. Feminism is a women's movement that demands emancipation or equality and justice for equal rights with men. This study aims to obtain an overview of the progress of feminism in education management in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, with a literature study method. Qualitative descriptive research approach is research that is used for the purpose of providing a qualitative description of the phenomenon or event being studied. Research with the library method is a theoretical study, references, and other scientific literature related to the culture, values, and norms that develop in the social situation under study. From this study it was found that there are still gaps between women and men, both in terms of education and in terms of occupying job positions in education management. In other words, feminism still needs a long process to be said to be successful in achieving its goals

A qualitative descriptive (QD) analysis of community-level experiences of healthcare delivery in rural, post-structural adjustment Ghana

Structural adjustment programs (SAPs) imposed in Ghana during the 1970s intentionally stratified the country without recognition of the diverse methods of healing commonly relied on by communities. Development assistance programs forced the restructuring of all major institutions and especially the organization of health care. This restructuring changed the cost structure for health care and while intending to increase access and geographic availability, SAPs resulted in the further marginalization of rural communities—exacerbating existing circumstances and further stratifying this society. The focus of this study was to capture key aspects of different types of healthcare delivery in a rural community and to learn more about their disease or illness specialties and treatment approaches. With a qualitative design (QD) approach, and based on fourteen walking interviews, this paper offers insight into seven different ways by which members of otherwise marginalized communities may access healthcare.

Patient dignity and dignified care: A qualitative description of hospitalised older adults perspectives.

The aim of this study was to explore older adults' perspectives about dignity and dignified nursing care during acute hospitalisation in Ghana. Maintaining hospitalised older adults' dignity is an essential component of nursing care and one of the most important determinants of wellbeing. To date, no study has been published on older adults' perspectives of dignified nursing care in the African context. A qualitative descriptive research design. Twenty hospitalised older adults were purposively selected from the medical and surgical wards of a teaching hospital in Ghana. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews between April and August, 2021, and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis techniques. The SRQR checklist was used to document reporting of the study. The following four themes were identified: Effective nurse-patient communication, Maintaining patients' privacy, Respectful and compassionate care provision and Providing quality and safe care. Dignity was preserved when patients were treated with respect and compassion, provided privacy, and had close family members involved in physical care. Identified barriers to dignity included inadequate information about their health condition, poor communication by the nurses, lack of autonomy, poorly designed healthcare infrastructure and inadequate privacy. Several enablers and barriers to dignified nursing care have been identified that have been discussed in previous studies. The unique factors identified in the Ghanaian context were family members' involvement in physical care influenced by cultural and religious beliefs, environmental barriers to privacy and dignity and inadequate involvement in decision making. Nurses must treat older patients with respect, educate them about the health condition, involve them in care decisions, and identify their preferences regarding provision of hygiene needs, particularly in consideration of religious and cultural beliefs, including involvement of family members. Future planning of healthcare infrastructure needs to consider the importance of private cubicles with disability-accessible ensuite bathrooms for patients' comfort and privacy.

A qualitative descriptive study of providers\u2019 perspectives on human papillomavirus vaccine administration among Latino/a adolescents in South Texas clinics: barriers and facilitators

BackgroundSouth Texas Latinas experience higher cervical cancer incidence and mortality compared to Latinas nationwide. Despite the availability of effective human papillomavirus vaccines, South Texas Latino/a adolescents sub-optimally complete the series. Research shows provider recommendation strongly predicts vaccine uptake, but minority adolescents are less likely to report that their provider recommended the vaccine and series completion. There is also scant information on the HPV vaccine administration process in clinic practices providing vaccination services to Latino adolescents with limited access to healthcare resources. The purpose of the study was to describe providers’ experience with administering the HPV vaccine to Latino/a patients in their practices.MethodsThe study used qualitative description to describe the experience of 15 South Texas healthcare providers (doctors and nurses) with the process of HPV vaccine administration in their practices. We conducted open ended, audio-recorded interviews, which were subsequently transcribed verbatim and uploaded into Atlas.(ti) 7.0 for analysis. The interviews yielded detailed descriptions of barriers and facilitators that could potentially impact HPV vaccine uptake.ResultsProviders identified parental exposure to provider recommendation as enhancing HPV acceptance and existing policies and implementation of evidence-based practices as facilitators of HPV vaccine uptake. Barriers ranged from parental fears of adolescent sexual activity and potential vaccine side effects to lack of transportation and the cost of the vaccine.ConclusionThese findings reflect barriers and facilitators to administering the HPV vaccine previously identified and also highlight issues unique to the situation among Latinos in South Texas. Implications include the need to design and implement efforts to improve provider-parent communication and enhance parental and adolescent patients’ understanding of and confidence in the HPV vaccine. Furthermore, policy changes are needed to rectify organizational/structural challenges to HPV vaccine administration.

Sexual and Reproductive Health Service Provision to Adolescents in Edmonton: A Qualitative Descriptive Study of Adolescents’ and Service Providers’ Experiences

The goal of adolescent sexual reproductive health (SRH) services is to provide information, education and healthcare to promote safe health practices and protect adolescents from negative health outcomes; however, access to timely, effective, and affordable SRH services by adolescents in Edmonton, Canada remains relatively unknown. Our study sought to understand the perspectives and experiences of adolescent girls and service providers in relation to availability, accessibility, and quality of SRH services available in Edmonton. The study objectives were to explore SRH services adolescents seek, uncover barriers in accessing SRH services and identify areas to improve accessibility. Qualitative description design was employed to conduct this study. Five service providers specializing in SRH, and eight females (ages 17–20 years) that access SRH services were recruited from the Alberta Health Services Birth Control Centre (BCC). Semi-structured interviews took place via Zoom. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVIVO software. Findings consisted of four primary themes: (1) views and current SRH practices; (2) barriers to accessibility; (3) the effects of COVID-19 on accessibility; (4) identified gaps in SRH care. The findings from our study support the development of knowledge translation strategies and make recommendations to improve the present quality of SRH services in Edmonton.

Parent Perception of Their Role in the Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit.

One way the goal of establishing a partnership with families is accomplished, specific to the pediatric intensive care units, is 24-hour visitation and presence/participation during medical rounds and procedures. Despite the breadth of literature on the positive effect of parent presence, as well as the nearly nationwide adoption of 24-hour pediatric intensive care unit visitation, there is little to no research about how these changes have affected parents' perception of their role in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit (PCICU). The purpose of this study was to explore and better understand the experience of parents in the PCICU within a patient/family-centered care model. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, interviews were conducted with parents of children currently admitted as inpatients in the PCICU. Participants were asked broad, open-ended questions and probes to attain qualitative descriptions of their experiences and perceptions of their parental role in the PCICU. The research design for this study was based on naturalistic inquiry and was used to describe rather than interpret parental experiences in their own words. Eleven parents from 7 families were interviewed; parents described their role in terms of 2 main categories, as one who is an advocate and decision maker and one who provides emotional and physical support. Parents valued the expertise of the PCICU team but also shared the significance of the team recognizing their role as parents. Incorporating parents as an integral member of the health care team is a fundamental component to PCICU care. The role of parents is irreplaceable, particularly in the PCICU. The medical complexity of the intensive care can be a barrier to act as parents resulting in a disruption of family-centered care. Nursing staff avert this disruption through modeling parenting to their child's present circumstances and involvement in normal parenting tasks.

Cultural contexts during a pandemic: a qualitative description of cultural factors that shape protective behaviours in the Chinese-Canadian community

BackgroundDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been significant variations in the level of adoption of public health recommendations across international jurisdictions and between cultural groups. Such variations have contributed to the dissimilar levels of risks associated with this world-changing viral infection and have highlighted the potential role of culture in assigning meaning and importance to personal protective behaviours. The purpose of this study is to describe the cultural factors during the COVID-19 pandemic that shaped protective health behaviours in the Chinese-Canadian community, one of the largest Chinese diasporas outside of Asia.MethodsA qualitative descriptive design was employed. Content analysis was used to analyze the data from semi-structured virtual interviews conducted with 83 adult Chinese-Canadian participants residing in a metropolitan area in the Province of Ontario, Canada.FindingsThe cultural factors of collectivism, information seeking behaviour, symbolism of masks, and previous experience with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) emerged as themes driving the early adoption of personal protective behaviours within the Chinese-Canadian community during the first wave of COVID-19. These protective behaviours that emerged prior to the first nation-wide lockdown in Canada included physical distancing, mask use, and self-quarantine beyond what was required at the time.ConclusionThese findings have implications for the development of future public health interventions and campaigns targeting personal protective behaviours in this population and other ethnic minority populations with similar characteristics.

Rural young males’ acceptance & receptiveness to technology-based interventions for dating violence prevention: A qualitative descriptive study

IntroductionRural youth are twice as likely as urban youth to experience some forms of teen dating violence (TDV), and significant barriers to accessing support services for physical, psychological, sexual violence. However, rural youth remain understudied and undersampled. Rural young men, in particular, are at risk for experiencing or perpetrating dating violence influenced by regional and sociocultural risk factors that promote male supremacy ideals while also impeding male help-seeking. Technology-based interventions circumvent some of these risk factors by offering confidential and reliable support. This study investigates rural young males’ acceptability of technology-based interventions for fostering healthy relationships and preventing dating abuse, including their preferences for intervention content and features. MethodsThree online focus groups (n = 14) and phone interviews (n = 13) were conducted with rural young males. Participants were stratified by age (15–17 and 18–24 year-olds). Most were White (81%) from the United States Midwest (65%). Semi-structured interview data were analyzed using Qualitative Description (QD), guided by the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). ResultsThree themes identified were (1) Scarcity of Useful Resources, (2) Socio-Structural Challenges for Intervention Uptake, with two subthemes (2a) Rural-Specific Structural Barriers and (2b) Rural Masculinity Disrupting Help-seeking; (3) Finally, participants discussed Functionality and Design Needs, itemizing their intervention “must-have” in terms of content, resources, and features. ConclusionThis qualitative study identified obstacles and facilitators to using technology-based interventions for dating violence prevention among young rural males and offers pragmatic “ready-to-use” recommendations for the development of technology-based anti-dating violence interventions for rural youth.

Goals of care discussions in acute hospital admissions – Qualitative description of perspectives from patients, family and their doctors

ObjectiveGoals of care discussions guide care for hospital inpatients at risk of deterioration. We aimed to explore patient and family experience of goals of care during the first 72 h of admission along with their doctor’s perspective. MethodsA qualitative descriptive study. Patients, family and doctors who participated in a goals of care discussion during an acute hospital admission at an Australian tertiary teaching hospital were interviewed in 2019. ResultsMany participants found goals of care discussions appropriate and reported understanding. However, communication was commonly procedure-focused, with questioning about preferences for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and intubation. Some considered the discussion as inapplicable to their state of health, and occasionally surprising. Participants commonly related goals of care with death, and without context, this led to fear of abandonment. Previous experience with end of life care influenced decision-making. Preference for family presence was clear. ConclusionsThis study identifies deficiencies in goals of care communication in the acute hospital setting. Discussions are life-saving-procedure focused, leading to poor understanding and potentially distress, and jeopardising patient-centred care. Practice implicationsAssessment of patient values and clear communication on the aims of goals of care discussions is essential to optimise patient and institutional outcomes. Clinicians should consider environment and invite family participation.

Collaboration and learning in teams of registered nurses and medical doctors: A qualitative descriptive study

Patients with cancer are expected to call an oncological emergency unit when they are unable to manage symptoms of their disease and side effects from treatment at home. Responding to calls from patients with different problems in a team of registered nurses and medical doctors requires interprofessional collaboration and learning. Therefore, this study aimed to explore conditions for team-based collaboration and learning when responding to calls from patients diagnosed with cancer in a specific setting of an oncological emergency unit. Using a frame of qualitative description three focus groups with 16 healthcare professionals from an oncological emergency unit at a Danish University Hospital were conducted. The verbatim transcribed text was analyzed using content analysis, and reported according to the COREQ guidelines. Two main themes emerged: 1) ‘Availability – a precondition for learning and collaboration’ and 2) ‘Sense of responsibility and distribution of roles’. The study demonstrated that interprofessional collaboration and learning were affected by intra and interprofessional and contextual factors. In addition to an awareness of personal attitudes, the environment and the distribution of responsibility and roles as essential preconditions for accomplishing teamwork need to be explicitly articulated if the team-based learning and collaboration are to succeed.
