Abstract

Elderly individuals generally undergo various physical and health changes. They tend to be more susceptible to various chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, and neurological disorders like dementia. Therefore, they require specialized care and ongoing monitoring. These efforts can help prevent diseases and enhance the quality of life for the elderly. Some of the main issues frequently faced by elderly individuals living in nursing homes are related to their health, including chronic diseases, mental disorders, and physical decline. The goal of this community service is to make a tangible contribution to improving elderly healthcare services through collaboration between the community service team and the staff of the independent living facility.The target of this community service team is 63 elderly individuals residing at PTSW Madago Tentena. The results of the community service activities indicate that most of the elderly residents at PTSW suffer from chronic diseases, including 13 individuals (20.64%) with diabetes mellitus, 41 (65.1%) with hypertension, 2 (3.2%) with severe cognitive impairment, and 5 (7.9%) with mild cognitive impairment. The health status is categorized as severe for 8 (12%), moderate for 30 (48%), and mild for 25 (40%). Therefore, the outcomes of this community service can serve as a reference for the nursing home staff to strive for improved health among the elderly and collaborate with other institutions to provide healthcare services in the facility.

Abstract

Background: The elderly with comorbidities are vulnerable to psychological problems such as anxiety, which can worsen their health and reduce their quality of life. This study aimed to describe the anxiety levels and demographic characteristics of elderly individuals with comorbidities in Ujung Tibu Village. Methods: This study used a descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. A sample of 37 elderly people who met the inclusion criteria was selected via purposive sampling. Anxiety levels were measured using the Geriatric Anxiety Scale (GAS) questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and presented as frequency distributions and percentages. Results: Most respondents experienced mild anxiety (73.0%), followed by moderate anxiety (21.6%), and severe anxiety (5.4%). The dominant demographic characteristics were female (78.4%), married (64.9%), living with their husband (45.9%), having a illness duration of 1-5 years (70.3%), and suffering from hypertension (64.9%). Conclusion: The anxiety level of elderly people with comorbidities in Ujung Tibu Village is predominantly mild. Community activities like the Integrated Health Post (Posyandu) and family support are suspected to be protective factors. Focused nursing interventions are recommended for the minority experiencing moderate to severe anxiety

Abstract

The Generasi Berencana Peduli Organ Reproduksi Perempuan (GEnRE POP) program aims to empower adolescents and improve their knowledge of reproductive health. The program was implemented in Bukit Bambu Village, Poso District, involving 20 adolescents aged 15–19 years. Activities included an initial survey, interactive health education, peer facilitator training, establishment of a support group, and evaluation using pre- and post-tests. Results showed a substantial improvement in participants’ knowledge, with average scores increasing from 45 to 85 (88.9%). The program also succeeded in forming a youth reproductive health support group and enhancing participants’ communication skills through peer educator training. This participatory approach created an inclusive learning environment that encouraged adolescents to become change agents in promoting reproductive health within their community. Overall, the GEnRE POP program proved effective in increasing adolescent reproductive health literacy and is recommended for continued implementation with support from local government, health workers, and educational institutions.
