Family role
What is the role of the family?
The family plays a role in fostering and guiding its members to adapt to the physical environment and the cultural environment in which it is located. If all members are able to adapt to the environment in which they live, then the life of the community will be created into a life that is calm, safe and peaceful.
“The family environment provides the most important basis for a person to have healthy habits, behaviors and lifestyles. Therefore, we need to continue to strive to cultivate a clean and healthy lifestyle in the community starting from the family environment. So the role of the family is very important in health development,” he explained.
The family plays a role in providing therapeutic health care to family members who suffer from an illness. Nursing is an effort based on humanity to increase growth and development for the realization of a completely healthy human being (Depkes RI, 2008). Research from Prasetyawan (2008) in general, patients who get the attention and help they need from a person or family usually tend to be easier to follow medical advice than sufferers who lack social support (family roles). According to La, Groca (1998) cited by Prasetyawan (2008) that the family plays a very important role in the medical management of a sick family member.

Epidemiology is a core science of public health. Public health is “the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life, and promoting health, through organized efforts and informed choice, by communities, organizations, public and private, communities and individuals. individual” (Winslow, 1920). So public health means not only science, but also art, and organized endeavor. Public health is not only aimed at preventing disease, but also prolonging life, and promoting health.
“Knowledgeable choice” implies that public health efforts should be based on the best available research evidence. Generally, public health efforts are designed, planned, programmed, and implemented at the group, community, or population level. Therefore, policy making and program planning are important strategies for effective public health interventions. But as Winslow defined, public health can also be implemented at the individual level, as long as the effort is organized.

According to him, public health workers have the ability to understand the promotive and preventive patterns of Covid-19 in the community. This is needed in designing programs and policies to accelerate the handling of Covid-19.
“Public health workers really need to be optimally involved in many promotive and preventive aspects of public health. Public health workers can innovate and create strategies to accelerate the handling of Covid-19 in Indonesia, with the main focus on education and empowering the community and the second focus on strengthening health services.’ ‘
