Abstract

One of the nutritional problems often experienced by adolescent girls is anemia. Adolescent girls are categorized as having anemia if the hemoglobin (Hb) level in the blood is less than 12 gr/dl. The type of anemia that often occurs is iron deficiency anemia, which is generally caused by blood loss during menstruation and increased iron requirements during puberty. As an effort to overcome this, a sustainable anemia prevention program was designed through the formation and strengthening of the Anemia Ambassador Team. This strengthening is carried out by providing education about anemia to adolescent girls. The purpose of this strengthening is to form peer cadres who play an active role in the prevention and control of anemia in the school environment on an ongoing basis. This activity was carried out in Al Hidayah Islamic Boarding School, Jambi City. The target of the activity was 13 people, with the FGD method and guidance. The results of the community service were obtained by forming ORSADA Cadres selected from peers who are expected to have a strong influence and be able to convey information about anemia, an increase in the knowledge of cadres about preventing anemia

Abstract

Anemia is a public health problem in Indonesia that affects all age groups, from toddlers to the elderly. In 2018, 32% of Indonesian adolescents suffered from anemia, and it is estimated that the majority of anemia is due to iron deficiency resulting from insufficient intake of iron-rich foods, particularly animal-based foods. Iron deficiency anemia is most common in adolescent girls due to excessive blood loss during menstruation, and their iron needs increase during puberty. This puts them at risk of decreased immunity, impaired concentration in learning, and complications during pregnancy. The purpose of this community service is to increase adolescent girls' knowledge about iron deficiency anemia. The methods used in this activity include discussion, mentoring, and persuasive communication. The target group for this community service were 25 adolescent girls from the Al Hidayah Islamic Boarding School. The results showed an increase in the adolescent girls' knowledge about iron deficiency, from an average of 78% to 97%. The adolescent girls are advised to actively seek information about the dangers of anemia and to pay attention to their nutritional intake to avoid anemia

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis is a chronic disease that spreads very easily and quickly, posing a national and global health threat. Indonesia ranks second in the world for the highest number of pulmonary TB cases, after India. Low public knowledge, stigma, access to healthcare services, and the long duration of treatment for pulmonary TB are contributing factors to the increase in pulmonary TB cases in Indonesia. The importance of empowering communities and health cadres to prevent transmission and supervise medication intake in pulmonary TB patients aligns with the National Pulmonary TB Elimination Program 2030. This community service aims to increase the knowledge and skills of communities and health cadres in recognizing risk factors, preventing transmission, and supervising treatment for pulmonary TB. The service activity was held on July 17, 2025, and was attended by 22 participants from the community and health cadres. Using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach with pre and post tests. Subsequently, education was conducted using interactive face-to-face lectures, discussions, practical demonstrations of effective coughing and cough etiquette, and the distribution of informative leaflets. The follow-up session for the patients' families will be held on July 20, 2025, to conduct direct monitoring at one of the homes of patients with pulmonary TB. The empowerment activities significantly improved the knowledge (p-value 0.004) and behavior (p-value 0.003) of the community and pulmonary TB cadres. The average knowledge score before the activity was 68 (66-74) and increased to 85 (79-91) after the activity. Similarly, the average behavior score increased from 63 (56-74) to 76 (67-87). Health empowerment through education, counseling, and training, as well as the direct use of brochures, proved highly effective in increasing awareness and competence in controlling pulmonary TB. The empowerment activities successfully increased the contribution of health cadres in preventing and early detecting transmission, as well as monitoring the treatment of pulmonary TB patients. There needs to be increased active participation from the community, health cadres, and community leaders so that pulmonary TB elimination can be achieved, especially in the Legok Village.
