Discharge Planning, Medication Adherence, Danger Signs of Pneumonia

Nurses can help patients with pneumonia and their family through appropriate discharge planning. This study aims
to determine the effect of discharge planning toward medication adherence on toddlers' pneumonia at Karawang
Local General Hospital. Quasi-experimental research post-test only control group design with 58 respondents was
selected by consecutive sampling technique. The study by using Chi square test showed a significant difference
between the intervention group and control group about medication adherence and understanding of the danger
signs of pneumonia (p <0.001). Gender, education, occupation, number of children, income, experience to care
pneumonia, and social support have no effect on medication adherence and understanding of the danger signs of
pneumonia.
