Abstract:
The use of healthy latrines is one indicator of a healthy Indonesian program through
a family approach (PIS-PK). Ownership and use of defecation facilities is one of the
important issues in determining sanitation quality. However, in reality from the
Riskesda data for 2018, about how to handle under-fives by households, 33.5% of
under-fives were discarded carelessly. This figure is clearly a big factor that causes
the high incidence of diarrhea, especially in infants and toddlers in Indonesia. This
study aims to determine whether family access to the latrine is a reflection of the
achievements of the PIS-PK in Dharmasraya District. This study uses a Research and
Development (R & D) approach by using the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development,
Implementation, Evaluation) method. This research was conducted in the
Dharmasraya District in October-November 2019. The population in this study were
all families in Dharmasraya Regency, using 450 samples. The results showed that
most Household had used healthy latrines, which was 85.6%. Household with high
knowledge about healthy latrines amounted to 77.1%. But the majority of Household
have a negative attitude towards healthy latrines which is 67.8%. Statistical test
results between the level of knowledge and the use of healthy latrines obtained p
value = 0,000 (p <0.05) means that there is a significant relationship between the
level of knowledge with the use of healthy latrines. Statistical test results between the
attitude and the use of healthy latrines obtained p = 0.655 (p> 0.05) means that there
is no significant relationship between attitude and the use of healthy latrines.
Communities that have used latrines have not been fully based on positive attitudes
