    Stunting remains a major public health issue in Indonesia, with multifactorial causes. Grandmothers play a central role in childcare and decision-making within families. Effective educational media are needed to improve knowledge and caregiving practices in family settings. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of educational modules and videos in improving grandmothers’ knowledge and skills in providing health education for stunting prevention. A one-group pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design was conducted among 25 grandmothers who lived with or near their grandchildren. The educational media (module and video) were first validated by experts. The materials included comprehensive information on the definition, causes, signs, symptoms, impacts, and prevention of stunting, as well as methods and techniques for delivering effective health education. Data were collected using knowledge and skill assessment tools, and analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test due to non-normal data distribution. The results showed that mean knowledge score of grandmothers significantly increased from 69.6 (pretest) to 94.4 (posttest), with a mean difference of 24.8, Z-score = -4.391, p-value = 0.000 (p < 0.001). Similarly, the mean skill score in delivering health education improved from 50.20 (pretest) to 84.80 (posttest), with a mean difference of 34.6, Z-score = -4.298, p value = 0.000 (p < 0.001). Educational modules and videos are effective in improving grandmothers’ knowledge and skills in providing health education for stunting prevention. Integrating family-centered educational tools into community health programs may strengthen family support and contribute to reducing stunting prevalence.

Educational videos and modules were used as instructional media. Knowledge data were collected using a structured questionnaire, whereas skills data were assessed using a standardized observation checklist. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank. The results showed that knowledge score increased from 48.00 (pretest) to 94.00 (posttest), with a mean difference of 46.00 (p < 0.05). Similarly, the mean skills score improved from 37.20 (pretest) to 87.20 (posttest), with a mean difference of 50.00 (p < 0.05). Educational modules and videos are effective media for enhancing the knowledge and skills of community health cadres in providing health education on cervical cancer prevention.

    Parents, mainly mothers, will be stressed when their children undergo hospitalization. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, the stress level goes higher. Nurse caring and nurse attitudes are treatments to lower mother stress levels. This research aims to see the correlation between nurse caring and mother stress levels on baby hospitalization during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research is observational and uses a cross-sectional design and accidental sampling technique. The samples are 95 mothers whose babies are being cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit at one of Yogyakarta's hospitals from December 2020 – January 2021. The instrument is the Caring Assessment Toll (CAT) questionnaire and the Parental Stress Scale (PSS). The Chi-square test was used as the statistical test. The result showed that 50 people (52.6%) said nurse caring was good. Then, 86 people (90.5%) have low to mid-stress levels. Thirty-eight people (40%) are the ones who categorized nurse caring as a good which affects their low-stress level. The p-value is 0.000 (p-value &lt; 0.05). It can be concluded that there is a correlation between nurse caring and a mother's stress level during baby hospitalization in a perinatology room. Hopefully, the perinatology room nurses should improve their care, especially during the pandemic. Â

    The incidence number of HIV/AIDS is the most worrying case globally, and the number keeps increasing. The highest risk factor affecting adolescents to have HIV/AIDS is lack of information. Thus, it is necessary to provide proper health education on HIV/AIDS using the small group discussion method. This study aims to determine the effect of HIV/AIDS education using the small group discussion method on teenagers' HIV/AIDS prevention knowledge. This research used a pre-experimental design, no control one-group pretest-posttest design. There were 55 respondents as samples obtained by using simple random sampling. They were divided into five small groups. Each group was provided the identical material, namely HIV and its prevention, for three hours with two sessions. The first session lasted for two hours consisted of knowledge sharing based on trigger cases. The second session lasted for one hour consisted of continuing and reviewing the material given in the first session. A questionnaire was handed out to collect adolescent knowledge about HIV/AIDS and analyzed the data using paired t-test. The result showed that adolescent knowledge scores on HIV/AIDS increased after being provided with health education on HIV/AIDS. The paired t-test value of a knowledge is p = 0.000 (p-value&lt;0.05). The implication in this study is that providing health education on HIV/AIDS using the small group discussion method has proven to be effective in expanding adolescent knowledge on HIV/AIDS prevention.
