ABSTRACT
Determination of non-smoking areas (KTR) is an effort to protect the community against the risk of health problems because the environment is contaminated with cigarette smoke. In general, the determination of KTR aims to reduce the number of morbidity and mortality due to smoking, and in particular, the aim of determining the KTR is to create a clean, healthy, safe and comfortable environment, provide protection for non-smokers, reduce smoking rates, prevent novice smokers and protect younger generations from the abuse of narcotics, psychotropic substances, and addictive substances (drugs). This study aims to analyze the relationship between information, supervision, suppression (punishment and threats) with visitor compliance to no smoking in General Hospital of Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. This type of research was a survey, the research design used was cross sectional. The population in this study was 7,695 with a sample size of 95 obtained using accident sampling. The instrument in this study was a questionnaire. The data obtained in this study were analyzed by means of the rank spearman correlation analysis. The results showed that there was a relationship between information (p=0.0001), supervision (p=0.0001), punishment (p=0.0001) with visitor compliance to no smoking in General Hospital of Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. It is recommended that the hospital requires an increase and additional resources in terms of staff for the hospital KTR environment, criminal sanctions for fines for violations of non-smoking areas need to be enforced, and it is hoped that the hospital health promotion officer (PKRS) will provide health promotion services visually, audiovisually and partnerships with related parties.
