Attitudes toward Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Programs in Caregivers of Children with Moderate-Acute Malnutrition Younger than 5 Years in Denpasar, Bali : A Qualitative Study
BACKGROUND: Providing additional nutriment represents one strategy for overcoming moderate-acute malnutrition (MAM) in children younger than 5 years. However, it is important to examine how well received such Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Programs (SNAP) are by caregivers in order to ensure optimal results.
OBJECTIVE: This study explores SNAP's reception by caregivers of MAM children younger than 5 years.
METHODS: Qualitative research was conducted through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with 16 selected caregivers and 5 Nutritional Executives from October to November, 2016 at 4 health centers in Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia. The results are presented to highlight the underlying patterns of SNAP's acceptance.
RESULTS: Overall, the informants responded negatively to SNAP, reporting that it was of limited usefulness. The results show 4 main themes relating to the receipt of SNAP. The first relates to the caregiver's preferences in terms of the types of supplementary food on offer. Second, caregiver's perceptions that the child was not, in fact, in a state of illness or disease due to a medical issue. Third, that the caregiver does not require supplementary food as they maintain that they are able to buy it independently. Fourth, factors related to the lack of support for health-care workers working with malnourished children.
CONCLUSION: The study finds that strengthening the role of health workers in terms of enabling them to effectively communicate the benefits of supplementary food to caregivers as well as adjusting the range of foods available according to the recipient's preferences is critical in overcoming malnutrition in children younger than 5 years.
