Scabies is an infectious skin disease caused by the Sarcoptes scabiei hominis variant of the mite. Based on the results of interviews with the Class IIA Samarinda Correctional Institution, it was recorded that 168 inmates had experienced scabies. This research aims to determine whether there is a relationship between personal hygiene and environmental sanitation on the incidence of scabies in prisoners at the Class IIA Samarinda Correctional Institution in 2023. The research design used in this research is cross sectional. The population of all inmates at the Class IIA Samarinda Correctional Institution is 759 people with a sample size of 110 people. The sampling technique uses the cluster random sampling method. The data collection tool uses a questionnaire. The data analysis used in this research is univariate and bivariate analysis. In the normality test, the data is not normally distributed, 0.006 < 0.05. Bivariate analysis used the chi square test with a confidence level of 95% (α=0.05). The research results showed that there was a relationship between personal hygiene and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.000, there was a relationship between environmental sanitation and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.000, there was a relationship between humidity and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.031, there was a relationship between lighting and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.031, there is a relationship between ventilation area and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.025, there is a relationsh ip between residential density and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.040, there is a relationship between temperature and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.031, there is a relationship between floors and the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.025, there is a relationship between the type of base sleepwith the incidence of scabies with a p value of 0.025. The incidence of scabies in the Class IIA Samarinda Correctional Institution is related to several variables, namely personal hygiene, environmental sanitation, humidity, lighting, ventilation area, housing density, temperature, floor and type of bedding. Therefore, it is recommended that correctional institutions carry out outreach regarding personal hygiene to minimize the incidence of scabies and improve environmental sanitation which is still lacking in efforts to improve health.
