Summary: | Background: Community education is one of the important public health
interventions in curbing the rising concern of non-communicable disease (NCD)
incidence and its complications. Community health volunteers (CHVs) were recruited
to outreach the community by delivering information on NCD prevention. Training is
essential to ensure effective and efficient education by the CHVs. Training through
YouTube is an option to overcome the limitation of class-based training.
Objective: To develop a YouTube-based training program and to determine the effect
of the program on self-efficacy and task importance in NCD prevention education
among CHVs in Kelantan.
Methods: The self-efficacy (SE) and Task Importance Rating Scale of 14 CHV tasks
were developed via nominal group technique (NGT) and validated toَ measureَ CHV’sَ
SE and task importance. A training needs survey was conducted using the newly
developed rating scale (n=78), and Importance-Performance Analysis was performed
to identify CHV’sَ needsَ forَ trainingَ whichَ was used for the development of the
module. NGT with expert and senior CHVs was also conducted. The module was
evaluated using one arm before and after an interventional study among CHVs in Pasir
Mas. Participants were given four weeks to watch 12 YouTube training videos. The
self-efficacy (SE) and Task Importance Rating Scale was collected pre and postintervention
to compare the mean SE and tasks Importance score before and after the
intervention using RM MANOVA (n=35). Theَ analysisَ alsoَ includedَ CHV’sَ
experience and highest education level as the independent variables. Fourteen models
of RM MANOVA were developed for each task. |
