Abstract
The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of a one and a half year
educational intervention on the job dissatisfaction of teachers, quality of life of parents and the
disabled children in 30 Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) centres in Kelantan. Method: Ten
educational modules were administered to the teachers. A validated Malay version of Job Content
Questionnaire (JCQ), PedsQL™ F1M21 and the Malay Version of the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory
™ Version 4.0 (PedsQL) Generic Core Scales were used pre intervention, mid intervention and post
intervention Results: Repeated Measure ANOVA revealed there was a statistically significant
reduction in the mean of job dissatisfaction (p = 0.048). Paired t test showed significant change only
in family relationship and physical functioning among children aged two to four years. Conclusion:
The intervention program elicited improvement mainly in job satisfaction of teachers. Efforts should
be made to sustain the effect by continuous support visits to CBR centres. An intervention which
focuses on the parents/caregivers needs to be carried out in the future so that a significant impact
could be observed among them.
