Abstract

Introduction: Physical activity plays a crucial role in improving public health and preventing non-communicable diseases such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. However, based on national health data (Riskesdas, 2018), around 33.5% of Indonesians remain physically inactive. The community service activity titled “Sadar Bugar: Senam Massal Sehat Masyarakat Kedawung dengan Latihan Aktivitas Fisik” aimed to raise public awareness about the importance of regular physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle. Method: This program applied a community-based participatory approach involving 250 participants from various age groups in Kedawung District, Cirebon Regency. The activities included group exercise sessions, brief health education, basic health checks (blood pressure, weight, BMI), and interactive discussions. Result: The results showed high enthusiasm among participants and improved understanding of the benefits of regular physical exercise. The community also expressed a commitment to continue such activities regularly. Conclusion: This program supports the Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) and demonstrates that collaboration among academic institutions, health workers, and the public can effectively promote sustainable healthy behaviors.

Abstract

Introduction: Population aging is a growing public health concern worldwide, requiring comprehensive healthcare services to maintain quality of life and functional independence. Integrated Health Service Posts (Posbindu) provide community-based health monitoring, disease prevention, and healthy aging promotion. However, elderly participation remains low. Family support is considered an important factor influencing motivation to engage in Posbindu activities. This study aimed to examine the relationship between family support and elderly motivation to participate in Posbindu activities in Kesambi Village, Cirebon City. Method: This quantitative correlational study used a cross-sectional design. A total of 90 elderly respondents were recruited through total sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires assessing family support and motivation to participate in Posbindu activities. Data were analyzed using the Spearman Rank correlation test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: Most respondents reported poor family support (84.4%), while only 10.0% received good support. The majority demonstrated moderate motivation (80.0%), followed by high (12.2%) and low motivation (7.8%). Spearman Rank analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between family support and motivation to participate in Posbindu activities (p = 0.000), indicating that stronger family support was associated with higher motivation among older adults. Conclusion: Family support is significantly associated with elderly motivation to participate in Posbindu activities. Strengthening family involvement may improve participation in community-based healthcare programs and support healthier aging.
