They feel punished, condemned, discarded and ostracized as the result of their stigma. We argued that leprosy management and complete healing better be done simultanously on physiological, psychological, sociological and religious faith-spiritual levels, using triadic approach intervention. This study conducted in 2017 on Lembata District, Nusa<br />
Tenggara Timur, Indonesia. 42 leprosy cases were screened through laboratory examination conducted at Damian hospital. 28 leprosy patients agreed to received the treatment in addition to leprosy medical treatment. 14 patients refused to participate. The Leprosy intervention model successfully enhance the improvements of 24 patients’ health. Spiritual/religious values can be used as base of positive view on leprosy management, empowering the family and community capacity on treating leprosy. Social integration is needed to improve the wellbeing of patients both physically and psychologically. This support help patients to cope with negative feeling, and reintegrating them into communities.</p>
