Abstract

The study examines TB patients' perceptions of the 5Ss approach (Self, Society, State, System, and Spiritual aspects) and its role in reducing stigma, enhancing self-care, and improving treatment outcomes. It highlights the importance of healthcare system support and the 5Ss in creating a TB-free society and improving patient well-being. Research design used for the study is descriptive research with quantitative analysis, using a self-structured survey. Sampling adopted purposive sampling of 75 TB patients from five TB units in Trichy District, Tamil Nadu, covering urban, rural, and semi-urban settings. The demographic details included age, gender, and treatment stage. Themes provide Self-responsibility, societal attitudes, state support, healthcare experience, and spiritual beliefs. Ethical committee approval ensured participant anonymity and confidentiality. Analysis of the result through SPSS software was used to identify patterns and correlations in 5Ss perceptions.
