Abstract

Elderly individuals are defined as those aged 60 years and above. In general, aging is accompanied by a gradual decline in biological, psychological, social, and economic functions. One of the most common health problems among the elderly is Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). RA is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation in the joints, particularly in the hands and feet, leading to pain, swelling, and often joint damage. Non-pharmacological therapy management can be applied to reduce pain and inflammation, maintain joint function, and prevent deformities. These include resting painful joints, maintaining an ideal body weight, ensuring adequate nutrition, applying warm compresses, and performing physiotherapy. Based on these considerations, this community service activity aimed to improve the health quality of the elderly and reduce pain intensity through the application of warm water and lemongrass compress therapy. The activity was conducted from March to August 2023, specifically on July 12–13, 2023, at Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Budi Luhur Jambi. The participants consisted of 39 individuals (elderly residents and staff). The method used was direct simulation and demonstration on elderly participants experiencing pain. The results of the activity showed a reduction in pain intensity among all elderly participants following the intervention. The outcomes of this community service included an overall improvement in the quality of life of the elderly, a reduction in joint pain complaints, enhanced knowledge regarding herbal-based non-pharmacological therapy, and the strengthening of holistic nursing approaches in the elderly care setting. Additionally, this activity is planned for publication in a nationally accredited journal as part of the dissemination of community empowerment results.

Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis, a chronic inflammatory disease in the elderly, is characterized by pain, stiffness, and limited movement in the joints. One non-pharmacological effort that can be implemented is the application of warm water compresses and lemongrass decoction. The Community Service (PKM) activity aims to increase the elderly's knowledge regarding the management of rheumatoid arthritis pain and provide complementary therapy in the form of warm water compresses and lemongrass decoction. The activity was held at the Tresna Werdha Budi Luhur Social Home in Jambi, involving 40 participants, consisting of 35 elderly and 5 care workers. The method used was health education, discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on practice of applying warm water compresses and lemongrass decoction to elderly experiencing rheumatoid arthritis pain. Evaluation was conducted through observation of participant participation and the elderly's responses after the therapy. The results showed that 35 elderly reported reduced joint pain, increased physical comfort, and easier daily activities after receiving warm water compresses and lemongrass decoction. The care workers gained knowledge on how to administer the therapy so they could continue to apply it independently
