Family nursing care for a school-aged child with a knowledge deficit in managing study schedules in Padukuhan Gentingan, Sleman, Yogyakarta
Keywords:
family nursing, school aged children, study time managementAbstract
School aged children are in the psychosocial development stage of industry vs. inferiority (Erikson) and the
concrete operational stage (Piaget), where self-confidence and logical thinking skills begin to develop.
However, at this stage, children still require assistance in managing study time, particularly from family members.
A lack of structured learning at home and the negative impact of gadget use are among the causes of low study
discipline in children. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of family nursing care in improving family
knowledge and involvement in studying time management and self-care for school-aged children. This
descriptive case study involved one family with a 12-year-old school-aged child experiencing a knowledge deficit
in study schedule management. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and discussions during
seven home visits conducted in January–February 2025. The nursing care process consisted of assessment,
diagnosis, planning, implementation, and Evaluation. Nursing interventions, including education on study time
management and menstruation self-care using visual aids and interactive discussions, showed increased child
understanding, active family involvement, and positive behavior changes. Structured family nursing care
effectively improves family knowledge and health management, particularly in supporting children's
independent and sustainable study habits. Families are encouraged to create structures study schedules with their
children, limit gadget usage, and provide continuoussupport and motivation during learning activities.
