Abstract

The health paradigm in Indonesia primarily focuses on curative treatment, fostering a mindset in society centered around disease treatment. Therefore, there is a need for a new paradigm, commonly referred to as the "healthy paradigm." This new health paradigm prioritizes promotive and preventive efforts while also recognizing the importance of curative and rehabilitative measures. One of the preventive measures taken to enhance immunity during the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia is the use of herbal foot salt. This is because salt serves not only as a flavoring agent in food but can also be used therapeutically to restore the body's condition and promote overall health. However, the impact of this virus extends beyond the health of the Indonesian people; it has also affected the Indonesian economy. Examining the educational level, the Open Unemployment Rate (TPT) for Senior High School (SMA) graduates remains high at 9.09%. Creating herbal salt is a straightforward process, and the required equipment is simple, presenting an opportunity to generate employment through entrepreneurship. The aim of the community service conducted at Huria Kristen Batak Protestant High School (HKBP) Sidorame is to provide training in the production of herbal foot salt for entrepreneurship, thus creating job opportunities. Furthermore, this initiative aims to impart an understanding of health and preventive measures to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. The community service method implemented here follows a modified Community Based Interactive Approach. This activity consists of three stages: pre-implementation, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. The evaluation results indicate that community service activities at HKBP Sidorame High School have increased knowledge by 85.15% following the provision of materials and direct demonstrations on herbal foot salt production and marketing strategies.
