The end users experience unhealthy mild or sometimes severe symptoms or fall sick with such conditions as allergies as well as irritations of the throat, eyes, nose and also lethargy and sometimes dizziness Mølhave (1989). Unlike Building-related illnesses (BRI), SBS has no identifiable cause. In 1984, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 30% of new and remodelled buildings worldwide may have SBS. This study will analyze the severity of SBS in North Cyprus based on different building elements and how they support the development of SBS in a building. Part of the outcome of this work is to develop a framework to test the level of SBS in a residential building by testing how occupants react to the building and demonstrating that building design elements such as orientation, roofing insulation systems, roof installations, and thermal floor masses alter the SBS effect on occupants. The goal is to develop "SBS TEST SOFTWARE" to assist professionals in assessing the SBS level in a building utilizing direct interview software, which can readily identify SBS-prone structures in Cyprus and worldwide. Cyprus’ SBS difficulties can be attributed to several design flaws in building elements, improper ventilation, uneven or inadequate heat distribution, and a lack of moisture-proofing of roof decks, walls, and foundations Obi (2016).</p> Ifeanyi Obi Copyright (c) 2024 Ifeanyi Obi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-04-11 2024-04-11 11 4 25–31 25–31 10.29121/ijetmr.v11.i4.2024.1437 TRANSPARENCY IN HEALTH SERVICES AT MAJENE REGIONAL GENERAL HOSPITAL, WEST SULAWESI https://www.granthaalayahpublication.org/ijetmr-ojms/ijetmr/article/view/1434 <p>The research objective was to determine the transparency of the implementation of health services and the driving factors for the transparency of the implementation of health services at the Regional General Hospital Majene, West Sulawesi. This research uses a qualitative approach, this type of research is classified as qualitative descriptive research. Data collection through observation made direct observations in the field about events related to the object of research, while interviews conducted interviews with informants to obtain information on implementation transparency issues and driving factors affecting health services, and documentation is research by collecting data in the form of documents such as decrees and regulations. regulations relating to the object of the problem. For analysis starting from data collection, data reduction, data presentation and conclusion. The results of the study show that the transparency of the implementation of health services is transparent because of several indicators, namely, the suitability of service standards, the information system has been published clearly, and the requirements and administration of services are carried out properly and by those set by the hospital. The driving factor that affects the transparency of the implementation of health services at the Majene Regional General Hospital, West Sulawesi, is the availability of Human Resources, namely employees who are tasked with wearing identification and carrying out their duties and responsibilities according to their respective fields, and facilities and infrastructure have been provided to satisfy health services to the community.</p> Aras Solong Abdul Mahsyar Mariati Rahman Andi Alim Copyright (c) 2024 Aras Solong, Abdul Mahsyar, Mariati Rahman, Andi Alim https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-04-06 2024-04-06 11 4 1–24 1–24 10.29121/ijetmr.v11.i4.2024.1434
