Background: Communication is a bridge of transaction between the health team, patients, and families that applies in the service units of hospitals, which are closely related to the patient safety culture. TeamSTEPPS is a team strategies and tools to enhance performance and patient safety. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of modified TeamSTEPPS training on the team communication of nurses in hospitals.Design and Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental pre-posttest control group design and a purposive sampling technique.Results: About 28 nurses participated and were distributed into control and intervention groups. The results of the Wilcoxon test on communication perception obtained a p-value greater than α (0.980>0.050), while on communication attitudes the p-value was greater than α (0.517>0.050). Furthermore, the spearman rho test showed that there was no difference between the team perception (p=0.624; α=0.050) and communication attitudes (p = 0.320; α = 0.050). This means that the implementation of this training towards nurses’ Team communication in the hospital did not have a significant effect.Conclusions: Hospitals need to carry out the implementation of TeamSTEPPS in a sustainable manner and develop good teamwork and effective team communication.

Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) had spread worldwide. Nurses as health care workers (HCWs) are at great risk of contracting the virus, so they are prioritized for accepting the Covid-19 vaccination. This study aimed to determine the intention of nurses to accept the covid-19 vaccination. Method: This online survey was given to all nurses in East Java who are scheduled to get the Covid-19 vaccine and had not been confirmed of Covid-19. This survey was conducted during 20th-27th February 2021 and distributed through social media. Data analysis used using an ordinal logistic regression.Result: A total of 150 nurses in East Java responded to this survey. Most of the participants were female (68.67%), aged 30-39 years (59.33%), married (67,33%), worked less than 10 years (58.33%), graduated from Ners (60%), worked in non-covid rooms (70 %), had good knowledge about vaccines (85,33%), and had no anxiety about receiving the covid-19 vaccine (66%). There were 69.33% of nurses intend to accept vaccination, 14% had no intention to accept vaccination, and 16.67% were still unsure. Intention to accept vaccination was influenced by marital status (p= 0.043) and anxiety level (p=0.041).Conclusion: The intention to accept the COVID-19 vaccination reached 69,33% among nurses. The intention to refuse and hesitate to accept vaccines was caused by doubts about the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine.

Permintaan masyarakat terhadap pelayanan keperawatan yang bermutu yang semakin meningkat menuntut pembenahan dalam manajemen keperawatan untuk peningkatan mutu layanan keperawatan. Model Asuhan Keperawatan Profesional (MAKP) merupakan strategi peningkatan mutu asuhan keperawatan. Sehingga pelayanan keperawatan menjadi lebih terstruktur, terorganisir, profesional dan komprehensif. Pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini terdiri dari tiga tahap yaitu tahap pelatihan MAKP bagi perawat, tahap pendampingan implementasi MAKP di ruang rawat, dan evaluasi implementasi MAKP. Hasil evaluasi kegiatan ini pengetahuan perawat yang meningkat adalah sebesar 84,2% dari sebelum dan sesudah pelatihan. Sebanyak 79,4% peserta aktif dalam diskusi. Hasil evaluasi pendampingan implementasi MAKP didapatkan 82,5% sesuai dengan SOP meliputi operan, preconference, postconference, discharge planning, dan ronde keperawatan. Pelatihan MAKP mampu meningkatkan efektifitas pelakasanaan pelayanan keperawatan di rumah sakit. Diharapkan pelatihan peningkatan kemampuan perawat yang lain dapat terus dilaksanakan sebagai bentuk Kerjasama antara perawat akademisi dan praktisi. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini juga diharapkan menjembatani implementasi teori dan konsep keperawatan secara teknis di layanan Kesehatan.

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a major shift in the healthcare delivery system. With the limited personal protection equipment and a nursing service shortage caused ineffective nursing care delivered to COVID-19 patients. Wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE) hinders nurse-patients communication and inhibiting the achievement of treatment goals. This study aims to examine the effect of a ‘COVID Nurse Assistant’ (CNA) application on patient satisfaction in COVID-19 isolation rooms. Design and Methods: This was a comparative study with an experimental and control group design. The participants were patients confirmed positive with COVID-19 receiving care in an isolation room for at least three days and were fully conscious. The intervention used was accessing health information related to COVID-19 through a mobile-friendly application namely-‘COVID Nurse Assistant’. The instrument used was the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ-18) translated into Bahasa Indonesia. In addition, an independent t-Test was used to perform statistical analysis. Results and Discussions: A total 158 respondents completed the online survey among of 219 eligible patients (72% response rate). The score in the general and financial satisfaction sub-scales reported by patients in the experimental group were significantly different from the control with p-values of 0.032 and 0.018 respectively. However, other subscales were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions: The implementation of the CNA online application has noteworthy implications on patient satisfaction. However, further studies examining similar system in different clinical areas would provide better information for the optimal use of technology in patient education.
