Background: Low back pain (LBP) is pain that is experienced in between the corners of the lower ribs to the fold of the lower buttocks, namely the lumbar-sacral area and is often accompanied by pain radiations to the legs and feet. LBP is caused by sitting for a long time in a monotonous position, causing tension on back muscles and can lead to the surrounding soft tissue damage. Traditional cloth weavers are at risk of LBP due to their activities that requiring sitting and bending positions, in a same certain position and for a long time. Analysis of appro-priate working posture can be a reference to reduce the risk of LBP. This study aims to determine working posture and its effect on the incidence of LBP and the risk level of each work attitude element of the woven fabric manufacturing activity.Subjects and Method: This was a quantitative study using a retrospective study. The subjects of this study were 40 weavers of traditional fabrics. The dependent variable was working posture. The independent variable was low back pain (LBP). LBP pain measured using the numeric rating scale (NRS) and the Quick Exposure Check (QEC) questionnaire to determine working posture. Results: There was a significant relationship between LBP and working posture (QEC level) (OR= 0.15; 95% CI= 0.03 to 0.71; p= 0.017), age (OR= 5.64; 95% CI= 1.07 to 2.96; p= 0.001), and tenure OR= 0.44; 95% CI= 0.16 to 0.85; p= 0.014). Age and tenure (hours) also influence the incidence of LBP.Conclusion: Age, working experience (length of work), and working posture have a high contribution to the incidence of Low back pain. The results of this study expected to be a reference of comfortable working posture for workers and efforts to prevent and manage low back pain.Keywords: working posture, low back painCorrespondence: Yuliana Suryati.

The increasing number of COVID 19 casesin Indonesia,especially in Manggarai, has caused a lot of anxiety and fear. The people is continuously urged to comply with health protocols so as not to be exposed to this very dangerous virus. This includes washing hands frequently with soap and water and using hand sanitizer. This causes the demand for hand sanitizers in the market to increase so that these products are increasingly slow and even unable to meet all people's requests. Therefore, many people try to make their own hand sanitizer by referring to the procedures set by WHO using alcohol, glycerol, and hydrogen peroxide and aquadest, the concentration of which is not less than 70% in order to function effectively as an antiseptic, so raw materials are needed. alternative alcohol from natural ingredients that can be found in the surrounding environment. In Manggarai district, one type of traditional drink with a fairly high alcohol content is "Tuak". Therefore, the using of tuak as a basic ingredient for making hand sanitizers is a new breakthrough to overcome the scarcity of hand sanitizers. The process of making hand sanitizer made from tuak goes through three steps, namely the preparation of materials and tools, the manufacturing process and the packaging process. The results of this innovation product are named "wacalime" hand sanitizer which is packaged in spray bottles to make it more effective and efficient

The people of Gendang Rejeng are potentially at a higher risk of type 2 diabetes due to their unhealthy lifestyle and eating habits linked to their traditional practices. There are efforts to identify the potential risk of type 2 diabetes and carry out preventive and promotive measures based on local potentials. The efforts include: 1) health check-ups; 2) diabetes screening; 3) health education; and 4) discussion with community leaders on adapting traditional practices to be more health-friendly. Through the study we discovered that out of 29 people of Gendang Rejeng that had been screened for diabetes, 62.1% had a low risk, 13.8% had a higher risk, and the remaining 24.1% had a moderate risk of diabetes.

Health problems in the form of infectious and non-communicable diseases originated from the lack of application of preventive and promotive efforts. Increased health problems such as acute respiratory infections and hypertension can be prevented by increasing promotive and preventive efforts for the community. The purpose of this service is to improve primary health services in the Puarwase Hamlet community in achieving optimal quality of life. This service was carried out on 211 families and 20 elderly people in Puarwase Hamlet, Manggarai Regency. Community service activities are directed at overcoming the problem of lack of clean hygiene behavior that results in acute respiratory infections and hypertension. The implementation of activities consists of assessment and health education, health examination, gymnastics and progressive muscle relaxation exercises in elderly hypertension. The impact of these community service activities is awareness of health problems by residents so that citizens have the awareness to overcome problems by empowering themselves through available resources such as health knowledge and skills and utilizing existing health facilities.

ABSTRAK Bunuh diri adalah penyebab kematian kedua pada usia 15-29 tahun dan salah satu sumber terbesar kematian dini. Bunuh diri diperkirakan menjadi penyebab 1,4% dari total kematian dan 15% dari kematian akibat cedera di dunia.  Kabupaten Manggarai yang terletak di Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur awal tahun 2019 hingga Agustus 2019 tercatat terdapat 12 kasus bunuh diri. Lebih dari 50% kasus tersebut terjadi pada anak usia remaja.  Penyebab bunuh diri dapat berupa faktor lingkungan dan interpersonal. Self-efficacy sebagai faktor interpersonal telah dipelajari sebagai langkah menghindari upaya bunuh diri. Salah satu Langkah yang dapat diupayakan untuk mengatasi resiko bunuh diri adalah peningkatan self efficacy siswa/siswi SMK Ruteng melalui upaya penyuluhan dan pelatihan hipoterapi. Setelah kegiatan pengabdian dilakukan diharapkan siswa/siswi SMK Swakarsa dapat memiliki pengetahuan tentang pentingnya self effikasi dalam upaya pencegahan bunuh diri dan keterampilan self hypnosis untuk meningkatkan self efficacy diri secara mandiri. Terdapat kesadaran dari siswa siswi akan pentingnya self efficacy bagi kesehatan mental dan terdapat ketertarikan siswa-siswi untuk mempelajari dan mencoba sendiri self hypnosis sebagai upaya peningkatan self efficacy. Kata Kunci: Hipnoterapi, Eficcaccy Diri, Bunuh Diri.  ABSTRACT Suicide is the second leading cause of death among 15-29 year olds and one of the biggest sources of premature death. Suicide is estimated to be the cause of 1.4% of total deaths and 15% of injury deaths worldwide. Manggarai Regency, which is located in East Nusa Tenggara Province, from early 2019 to August 2019 there were 12 cases of suicide. More than 50% of these cases occur in adolescents. Causes of suicide can be environmental and interpersonal factors. Self-efficacy as an interpersonal factor has been studied as a measure to avoid suicide attempts. One of the steps that can be taken to overcome the risk of suicide is to increase the self-efficacy of students of SMK Ruteng through counseling and hypotherapy training. After the service activities are carried out, it is hoped that the Swakarsa Vocational School students can have knowledge about the importance of self-efficacy in suicide prevention efforts and self-hypnosis skills to increase self-efficacy independently. There is awareness from students about the importance of self-efficacy for mental health and there is interest from students to learn and try self-hypnosis as an effort to increase self-efficacy. Keywords: Hypnotherapy, Self-Efficacy, Suicide.

Penyebaran COVID-19 yang tinggi menyebabkan kebijakan dilakukan kelas daring bagi mahasiswa di selurun Indonesia termasuk di Manggarai. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui persepsi mahasiswa keperawatan dalam melakukan kuliah daring. Metode penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif. Data diambil dengan menggunakan focused grop discussion terhadap 32 orang mahasiswa yang dibagi dalam 4 kelompok selama 55 menit setiap kelompok. Analisa penelitian adalah analisa tematik dengan menggunakan aplikasi Atlas-ti. Hasil penelitian ini mengungkapkan 3 tema yaitu (1) dampak negative kuliah daring yaitu motivasi kurang, perasaan negatif, dan masalah kesehatan fisik, (2) dampak positif kuliah daring yaitu menambah wawasan tentang teknologi, mengurangi penyebaran COVID-19, dan memiliki waktu luang lebih banyak (3) Kuliah tatap muka lebih baik dari kuliah daring. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan perkuliahan daring memiliki dampak postif maupun negative yang mempengaruhi mahasiswa. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa meski memiliki kelebihan, mahasiswa memilih untuk melakukan kuliah secara tatap muka terutama karena kuliah tatap muka lebih meningkatkan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan dalam melakukan asuhan keperawatan.Key word: Kuliah Daring, Dampak kuliah daring, Pandemik COVID-19, Dampak positif Kuliah Daring, Dampak Negatif Kuliah Daring

This is mainly due to the lack of mental health services, especially in remote areas such as East Nusa Tenggara which have limited health services. The purpose of community service is to optimize the role of mental health cadres in community mental health programs by providing mental health cadre training so that cadres can carry out their roles which include primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention. This research method was carried out by providing educational training to mental health cadres. This training is expected to be able to help puskesmas increase the coverage and sustainability of mental health services to ODGJ by optimizing the role of the community, in this case, especially mental health cadres by carrying out early detection and mobilizing ODGJ and their families to carry out treatment so that there are no more ODGJ who are shackled but can instead recover and be productive.
