PROGRAM KERJA PAGAR BARU (PENDAMPINGAN KELUARGA SIAGA TUBERKULOSIS PARU)

Abstract

Pulmonary TB disease suffered by individuals in their lives will have a negative impact, both physically, mentally and socially. TB also has other negative impacts, socially stigmatized and even ostracized by the community. According to Miller (2018), rejection and shame often prevent people from seeking treatment and completing treatment. So far, the implementation of care, treatment and prevention of TB transmission is mostly done to the sufferer himself. The patient must be responsible for all his care and treatment for his recovery. The involvement of family members is still not optimal or only as PMO (Drug Swallowing Supervisor).

Families often do not know the actions they should take to help the healing process and prevention of TB disease. Even if there is family involvement in TB treatment at home, this has not been accompanied by the provision of adequate knowledge regarding actions that must be taken by the family by health workers. The less than optimal role of the family in providing care and prevention of TB disease transmission often has an impact on other family members. People with TB can transmit the disease to family members and people around them, as a result, the number of people with pulmonary TB tends to increase.
