Analysis of the implementation of the local government information system in the health sector at the health office of teluk wondama regency, west papua
Get PDFPlanning for programs in the health sector is the main focus in developing better human resources so that the implementation of every planning and budgeting in programs in the health sector can run very effectively and on target, starting from the recording system to reporting in the application of government information systems in the regions. The purpose of this study aims to analyze the implementation of the Regional Government Information System (SIPD) in the health sector at the Teluk Wondama Regency Health Office, West Papua. The results of the input research on Human Resources are still inadequate, the input has not been maximized due to the lack of understanding and training of program managers on the nomenclature of activities in the application, there is a difference between the proposed activity program from the field and the nomenclature of the program in the health sector, the delivery of information through meetings, letters and whatsapp groups, the Procedural Operational Standards for the program proposal process in OPD are not yet available, including the proposal for the Health sector program at the Health Office. The process still needs to develop the system, the appointment of bureaucracy affects the implementation of SIPD and does not have an impact on human resource incentives. The ouput element is still necessary in terms of meeting the needs and specifications of the SIPD design. Feedback related to Communication runs well and coordinates with each other. Conclusion. Improvement efforts are to increase the capacity of human resources both involved in the management and operation process of SIPD and fields and sections that should propose activity programs in the health sector, socialization to program managers if there are changes to the nomenclature of programs in the health sector in the SIPD application, conduct monitoring processes, and evaluate periodically and regularly the implementation of the SIPD application and provide special training for SIPD application user
Modeling the Determinants of Success for Accountants: Evidence from a Public University in the Philippines
Get PDFThe Central Luzon State University Accountancy program has long been considered as one of the most in-demand courses and despite the meager number of its licensure examination takers, there were a lot of passers with one placing at number 10 in the National List of Top Ten Passers. The various aspects surrounding the students\u27 examination-taking circumstances served as a matter of interest among the researchers in order to improve academic and institutional performance. A Likert questionnaire was designed and pre-rested to collect data which was used in qualitative and quantitative correlational analysis.
The factors that have an impact on the success of licensure examination takers were the reviewer in the formal review school, family income, faculty from the institution, and the year of graduation. Correlation analysis inferred that the examination ratings are associated with the review school variables like subjects offered, scope of review, and review materials, and the requirements and activities provided by faculty members. Among the school factors, it was determined that assignments with relevance and requirements that receive feedback were important for a good examination rating. A Model of Success Determinants was formulated from the results to be used as guide for future college review programs
Quality Assurance Models in Higher Education: A Systematic Review of International Approaches, Standards, and Practices
Get PDFIntroduction: quality assurance in education has become a central pillar in the current global context, marked by growing competitiveness and high expectations in the labor market.
Objective: the purpose of this research is to analyze the main models of educational quality assurance, exploring their implementation in various geographical contexts in order to promote higher educational standards.
Method: a systematic review was conducted following PRISMA 2020, using the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Studies on educational quality, assurance models, accreditation standards, and best practices in universities published in English or Spanish were selected. A total of 67 documents were retrieved, and after screening and applying exclusion criteria, 17 were included in the study. Exclusion was carried out in three phases: poorly indexed studies, studies without full access, and those irrelevant to the central topic.
Results: the analysis of 17 studies shows marked geographical diversity, focusing primarily on Indonesia and Bulgaria (three studies each). ESG standards and ISO 9001:2015 are the most widely used. Self-assessment is the predominant assessment method (four studies), followed by interviews and observation.
Conclusion: the study highlights the importance of adapting assurance approaches to local specificities, recognizing geographical and methodological diversity as key factors. This paper invites reflection on current assurance models, advocating for flexible and adaptive approaches that foster continuous and sustainable improvement in educational quality
Strategies for preventing presenteeism in nursing
Get PDFIntroduction: Presenteeism in nursing refers to physical presence at work with physical and mental limitations, even when the professional has physical or mental limitations that compromise their performance.

Digital Transformation Success in SMEs: Exploring the Interplay of Technology, Organization, and Environment
Get PDFBackground: In the current digital economy, integrating cutting-edge technology into company operations has become essential to long-term sustainability and competitiveness. The term Digital Transform (DT) describes the deliberate use of digital technologies and processes to boost consumer engagement, operational effectiveness, and innovative capacity. For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), DT presents both opportunities and challenges due to controlled resources and structural limitations. Objective: To explore how technological, organizational, and environmental factors collectively influence the success of DT in SMEs was the primary objective of this research. Method: an organized questionnaire collected data from 192 SME representatives across several industries. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), the research tested the relationships among particular variables. The model combined key constructs such as IT infrastructure readiness (ITIR) digital leadership (DL), organizational agility (OA), regulatory support (RS), market pressure (MP), workforce adaptability (WA), and Digital Transformation success (DTS). The DT process was assessed based on criteria that included the incorporation of digital platforms, real-time data utilization, and customer-driven innovation. SPSS and AMOS were utilized for data analysis, containing reliability tests, confirmatory factor analysis, descriptive statistics, and path analysis. Result: Results discovered that organizational agility (β=0.38, p<0.01) and IT readiness (β=0.33, p<0.01) had the most substantial effects on transformation success, with external market pressure (β=0.27, p<0.05) also playing a meaningful role. Digital leadership was found to significantly mediate organizational capabilities. Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of internal capabilities supported by external drivers in shaping successful transformation outcomes.

The sample consisted of 153 microenterprises probabilistically selected from a population of 251 affiliated with the San Martín Chamber of Commerce. A questionnaire with 30 indicators distributed across five constructs was applied, with reliability verified through Cronbach’s Alpha and McDonald’s Omega. The model was evaluated using structural equation modeling with the WLSMV estimator. Results: The model showed adequate fit indices (χ²/df = 1,07; RMSEA = 0,019; CFI = 0,992). Only interactions with customers had a significant influence on management objectives (p = 0,001), while suppliers, competitors, and regulators showed no significant effects (p > 0,05). Conclusions: Customer-centered management is the main determinant of microenterprise success. The proposed framework provides practical tools to strengthen competitiveness and sustainability
