Abstract

This study assessed the level of treatment adherence among pulmonary tuberculosis patients at the Rural Health Unit-Jolo in terms of disease awareness, health care support, and family support. With 33 samples taken through non-probability sampling method via purposive sampling, and with the use of weighted mean, standard deviation, t-test for independent samples, One-way ANOVA, and Pearson’s r, this study reveals the following findings:1) Of the 100 respondents, mostly are male, married within the age range of 30 years old & below, and with high school of education; 2) On the average, patients at Rural Health Unit-Jolo are perceived to have moderate adherence to treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis; 3) Generally, unlike age and civil status, variables such as gender and educational attainment do not significantly mediate in ways how respondents assessed the levels of treatment adherence of Pulmonary Tuberculosis patient at Rural Health Unit-Jolo; 4) Generally, the group of respondents who assessed the level of treatment adherence of Pulmonary Tuberculosis patient at Rural Health Unit-Jolo, in the context of disease awareness as Moderate Adherent is mostly probably the same group of respondents who assessed the level of treatment adherence of Pulmonary Tuberculosis patient at Rural Health Unit-Jolo, in the context of disease awareness in contexts of Family Support and Healthcare Support as Moderate Adherent, respectively; and 5) This study seems to support Health Belief Model (HBM) by Edward C. Green and Elaine Murphy (2020) elucidates the cognitive processes influencing nurses’ behaviors in the context of infection control.
