Abstract

This community service aimed to improve public knowledge and awareness in preventing hypertension through sodium intake control, nutritional status monitoring, and increased physical activity. The implementation method involved community-based health education using counseling, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations of healthy lifestyles. The program targeted individuals of productive age within the public health center service area, supported by healthcare professionals and community health cadres. Evaluation was conducted using pretest and posttest to assess changes in participants’ knowledge. The results showed a significant improvement in community understanding of hypertension risk factors, particularly regarding salt consumption, balanced nutrition, and the importance of regular physical activity. In addition, participants demonstrated more positive attitudes toward adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors in their daily lives. In conclusion, community-based health education is effective in enhancing public knowledge and awareness in preventing hypertension, and it should be implemented continuously and integrated with primary healthcare programs.

Abstract

Background: Functional urinary incontinence is a common concern among older adults, particularly those experiencing mobility limitations that interfere with timely access to toilet facilities. This condition may affect personal hygiene, sleep quality, independence, and overall well-being. Comprehensive nursing care is therefore important to address urinary incontinence and its associated geriatric problems. This study aimed to describe the implementation of nursing care for an older adult with functional urinary incontinence at PSTW Kasih Sayang Ibu, Batusangkar, Indonesia. Methods : This study employed a descriptive case study design involving one older adult diagnosed with functional urinary incontinence. Data were collected through interviews, direct observation, physical examination, and medical record review. Data were analyzed descriptively using the nursing process, including assessment, nursing diagnosis, intervention planning, implementation, and evaluation. The evaluation focused on urinary incontinence frequency, mobility, personal hygiene, sleep patterns, and cognitive responses. Results:The assessment identified functional urinary incontinence associated with limited mobility, accompanied by a risk of falls, self-care deficit, disturbed sleep patterns, and memory impairment. Nursing interventions included bladder training, scheduled toileting, environmental modification, support for independence in daily activities, sleep management, and cognitive stimulation. Following the nursing interventions, the patient showed a reported reduction in urinary incontinence frequency, improved mobility and personal hygiene, better sleep, and improved cognitive responses. However, the manuscript did not provide quantitative measurements or standardized assessment scores to determine the magnitude of these changes. Conclusion: Comprehensive, individualized nursing care may help address functional urinary incontinence and related care needs in older adults. Nursing practice should integrate bladder management, environmental safety, functional support, and cognitive stimulation. Further studies involving more participants, longer follow-up, and standardized outcome measures are needed to evaluate intervention outcomes more objectively and strengthen the evidence for gerontological nursing practice

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Gout arthritis is a metabolic inflammatory disease that commonly affects older adults and can cause severe joint pain, sleep disturbances, limited mobility, and an increased risk of falls. These problems may reduce functional independence and quality of life among older people. Comprehensive gerontological nursing care is therefore essential to address patients’ physical needs and prevent complications. This study aimed to describe the implementation and outcomes of gerontological nursing care for an older adult with gout arthritis. Methods : This study employed a descriptive case study design using the nursing process approach. The subject was one older adult with gout arthritis residing at PSTW Kasih Sayang Ibu, Batusangkar, Indonesia. Data were collected over six days through interviews, direct observation, physical examinations, and medical record reviews. Data analysis followed the nursing process, including assessment, nursing diagnosis, intervention planning, implementation, and evaluation, guided by Indonesian nursing standards. Results: The assessment identified three primary nursing problems: acute pain, disturbed sleep patterns, and risk of falls. Nursing interventions included nonpharmacological pain management through deep-breathing relaxation and warm compresses, sleep support through environmental modification, and fall prevention through patient education and environmental arrangement. Following six days of nursing care, the patient’s pain intensity decreased from 7 to 3 on a numerical rating scale. Sleep quality improved, and no falls occurred during the care period. These findings indicate positive changes in the patient’s condition following the implementation of structured nursing interventions. Conclusion: Systematic and comprehensive gerontological nursing care may help reduce pain, improve sleep, and support fall prevention in older adults with gout arthritis. Nurses should integrate individualized, evidence-based interventions with regular assessment, medication management in collaboration with healthcare professionals, and multidisciplinary care to optimize patient outcomes.
