Field of Training NURSING MANAGEMENT AND HEALTH CARE Location of study*
Indonesian University
U.S. University
I chose this study because it is linear with undergraduate education that I took and the most important is the study in this
area will support the career and my job as a teacher in the field of nursing. It certainly will help me in developing nursing
science in my country through education and research which I will do ahead.
I hope by study nursing and health care management, I can apply it by develop a management system of nursing
especially in the field of emergency psychiatry that became focus of my teaching, because the system which currently
being used in my country highly needs to be developed.
Second Priority
Field of Training PUBLIC HEALTH Location of study*
Indonesian University
U.S. University
Changes in the current health care paradigm is not only focused on hospital services but also in the community and then
implemented in the field of nursing including psychiatric nursing. By studying public health I would like to learn more
about how to protect and improve the health status of the community through the organization of community resources
that are effective, efficient and based on professionalism.
The United States is one of the countries with best community health care system in the world, so I am confident with the
knowledge and experience of public health study will be implemented in my country, particularly in improving the mental
health community.

of this system not very developed in Indonesia. The United States is the country with best social security systems in the
world with medicare and medicaid programs, so I believe it is appropriate to learn about this study in the United States,
then after I completed the study and returned to my country, I believe the knowledge I have will be used in improving
health insurance system run by my country.

11. SHORT ESSAYS
Please note that your answers should not be more than 250 words for each question. Anything over this limit will
not be considered. Attach additional paper if necessary.
PERSONAL INFORMATION
a. Briefly describe your personal background and daily activities, including interaction with your family members and
community.
Generally, I love being in community and organization. I was elected as chairman of the Student Executive Board
(BEM) at the faculty level. As a nursing student activists, I am committed to supporting efforts to improve the quality
of health care, one of them to support legalization nursing legislation in Indonesia
In addition, I am also active in the organization of the Islamic Association of University Student (HMI) Branch Depok
and I was elected as chairman of HMI Branch Depok for period of 2012-2013. I am also active in the national board
of Association of Indonesian Intellectuals Muslim (ICMI) as secretary of the Department of Welfare. In every
organization that I follow, I emphasize the the importance of mutual respect for differences, tolerance, and uphold
the human rights. I think that the Muslim, as the majority population in Indonesia, should be able to give an example
of the mutual respect for differences, and uphold the human rights.
I am currently working as a lecturer at the University of Indonesia. But my passion in a variety of social activities
and the organization has never receded. With the knowledge and experience of leadership and social activities, I
establish a non-governmental organization called Indonesian Nursing Studies Center.
I am an outgoing person, easy to get along, and humoris. But, of course I know when I have to adjust my attitude
as a leader. My leadership style tend to be democratic. Although at certain times I can make decisions in my own.
.
b. Briefly describe what you consider to be your strengths and weaknesses
The positive aspect that became my strength is my capacity as a leader. Various experiences of organizations and
social activities both as staff and as chairman I have ever been through. But of course that does not make me stop
learning. I understand that I must keep learning and practice to improve my skills and knowledge. I have a high
motivation to achieve goals that I want. I still remember that to become a lecturer in University of Indonesia is not
easy, but with great effort and willingness to continue learning I could finally accepted. Furthermore, I do everything
by the planning that has been prepared, even though sometimes I have to deal with unexpected conditions. And for
me the time is extremely valuable. Time is gold. What I believe is that the success I have achieved, one of the
reason, is because I am able to become a disciplined person.
The difficulty I face is my tendency to be democratic over times, sometimes it requires a long time for me to make
single decision. I have to make sure that the decisions that I took brings a lot of benefits, and minimize the conflict.
But I keep learning and strive to overcome it with a lot of discussions with people who have a lot of experience in
leading.

ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
c. Briefly describe significant factors that have influenced your educational and professional development. What challenges
have you overcome in pursuing your professional development? Describe the challenges as well as any insights,
perspectives or skills you gained in overcoming them.
Significant factors that affect me in terms of education and professional is consciousness as a nurse, and
awareness of the condition of health care in Indonesia. There must be a set of of people who have a strong
intention to fight in promoting health care in this country, and why not starting with my self ?
The first challenge arises at the beginning of my education at the University. At first, being a nurse is not an ideal
goal I would expect. But thanks to the encouragement and great advice from my parents, they said that I was
placed in this field is certainly not without purpose. Surely there are good intentions behind all things. Eventually at
that point I decided to use all my capability in promoting this profession and improve the quality of health services in
Indonesia.
The second challenge I had when graduating from university. I think that to strive to the fullest, I have to be the right
person, at the right time and in the right place. Currently, nursing development center still centered at the University
of Indonesia, then the conclusion I must joined there. Is it that easy? of course not. However, with the genuine
intention and endeavor I was successfully accepted at the University of Indonesia to continue the vision I have.
d. What is the topic that you are interested in for your future research? Please elaborate more on the mentioned topic.
For future research, I am interested in the field of Emergency Psychiatry Nursing both in the disaster area and the
community.
Emergency Psychiatry Nursing becomes important in Indonesia. It is based on several arguments. First Indonesia
is a disaster-prone country, but the aspect of psychiatry is not too concerned, whereas it is very necessary to
prevent any sustained trauma to the disaster victims. Second, current psychiatric illness is still seen as a humiliating
disease in Indonesia so that families are reluctant to take care of family members who are mentally ill. The
community-based approach is very necessary for this case.
SOCIAL ACTIVITY
e. Please propose a plan on how will you share your new skills, knowledge and perceptions with your colleagues and
community.
Big planning is to utilize my experience in various organizations that I follow. Almost all of these organizations have
a high attention to the health sector. Even social organization such as HMI or ICMI has a special department which
concentrates on health issues in Indonesia. I think by sharing knowledge, skills and new perceptions through mass
organizations is an effective and efficient way.
Applicant Name: YUDI ARIESTA CHANDRA
PRESTASI II Program to Extend Scholarships and Training to Achieve Sustainable Impacts, Phase II 15
f. If you are awarded the grant, how will you apply your newly-acquired skills and knowledge to develop your country or
region and to improve your performance in your institution?
As I mentioned earlier, that Emergency Psychiatry Nursing will be divided into 2 main concern, The first is the
disaster area and the second in the community.
In the disaster area I would encourage the government and private parties to pay more attention to aspects of
psychiatry on disaster victims. With the knowledge and abilities which I get , I expected to make the formulation of a
specialized programs for helping the disaster victims passed their traumatic. Physical assistance will be useless
when the victims continue to be covered the horror of disaster they just encountered.
While in the the community, instilling an understanding that mental illness is not anything embarrassing be the
primary goal. Base movement will begin from the youth in each region to then be able to build a Emergency
Psychiatric Post which will provide profound information for families about mental illness and way to handle it.
VISION AND LEADERSHIP
g. Illustrate the chain of command in your current institution, which best describe the line of responsibility between you and
your supervisor(s), colleagues and/or your subordinate.
h. Please give example(s) on how you demonstrated your leadership skills on your daily activities, whether in your current or
previous employment, or within the community.
The ability to lead is certainly not just come from our self. The ability of someone in the lead also coming from
recognition. I feel very grateful often trusted to be a leader in a variety of activities. Both long and short term. I am
currently trusted be the Chairman of the Committee in the Selection of Best Students in the Faculty of Nursing - UI
Being a leader is different from being a boss. Being a leader requires me to listen to the aspirations of others. Being
a leader means requires me to reduce me time. Being the leader requires me to look at a problem as a whole
picture. Basically being a leader is how I put aside personal interests to the sake of common interest. But behind all
of that, being a leader is a priceless opportunity to improve the quality of myself.
i. If you are awarded the grant, briefly explain your major concern(s) during your future study and your plan to overcome

these concern(s).
My main concentration is to be able to continue my education until the doctorate level. Because for me, education is
primary key in resolving various problems which occurring.
But, of course, good science is applied science. Before stepping on the doctoral level, I want to apply the
knowledge which I get directly to the community in a minimum period of 3 years. I think it is ideal to prepare the
basis of my doctoral education which I will take later.
j. Briefly describe your professional goals and how they are related to major problems in your country or region.
The main problem in Indonesia is located on the 3 main sectors, education, health and the environment. My main
objective is to create adequate health care. This can be achieved by giving influence to the 2 main things, external
and internal. The external factor is the government's policy and the second factor is a qualified health care provider.
When the two main factors can be harmonized certainly adequate health care is no longer a dream.
