Aceh Barat Daya (Abdya) is one of the districts with a very low number of villages in terms of open defecation freedom. The number of sanitation facilities in each Abdya district to date has not met the access to proper sanitation for the people of Aceh Barat Daya, especially latrines. Out of 152 villages, only 11 villages are Open Defecation Free (ODF). This study aimed to assess the relationship between health worker support and latrine ownership. The method used in this study was analytical observational with a crosssectional approach. The population in this study was the entire community of Aceh Barat Daya District with a sample size of 125 respondents spread across all sub-districts in Aceh Barat Daya. Chi Square test results obtained health worker support (> p value 0.05) which means there is no significant relationship between health workers and latrine ownership. There is no significant relationship between health worker support and latrine ownership. This occurs because the role and support of health workers in educating and assisting people who do not have latrines is not optimal.

Based on the results of the research and discussion in this study, it can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between the support of health workers and ownership of healthy latrines in the Southwest Aceh District.The results of the analysis show that the variable has a significant value greater than 0.It is necessary to maximize the potential for community support, motivation, and empowerment carried out by community leaders, religious leaders and local health workers regarding the importance of the community having a healthy toilet.

Penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan untuk menggali lebih dalam faktor-faktor lain yang memengaruhi kepemilikan jamban sehat di Aceh Barat Daya, seperti tingkat pendapatan, pendidikan, dan akses terhadap air bersih. Studi kualitatif dapat digunakan untuk memahami persepsi masyarakat mengenai pentingnya sanitasi dan hambatan-hambatan yang mereka hadapi dalam membangun jamban. Selain itu, penelitian intervensi yang melibatkan pemberdayaan masyarakat dan peningkatan peran aktif dari tokoh agama dan tokoh masyarakat dapat dieksplorasi untuk meningkatkan perilaku sanitasi yang sehat. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan rekomendasi yang lebih komprehensif dan efektif untuk meningkatkan akses sanitasi yang layak bagi seluruh masyarakat di Aceh Barat Daya, serta berkontribusi pada pencapaian target nasional dan global dalam bidang sanitasi.
