Abstract

Community service in health institutions needs to be guided by six pillars of health transformation, namely to overcome five priority diseases: tuberculosis, stunting, MCH, infectious diseases and non-communicable diseases. One of their focuses is Sidoarjo Regency, where they work closely with the Regional Government to improve public health. Some of the main problems in Sidoarjo Regency include the high rate of stunting and the practice of open defecation (ODF). There is a relationship between stunting and environmental sanitation, especially open defecation. Solutions to overcome this problem include the provision of healthy latrines to the community, increasing the capacity of Posyandu cadres, nutrition management, and promoting clean and healthy living behaviors. This community service activity is based on previous research relevant to stunting and ODF problems. The goal is to reduce stunting rates in five stunting locus villages, increase knowledge about clean and healthy living behaviors, and build 100 healthy family latrines. The method used is Theory, Practice, Follow-up (TPT) which involves training, field practice and advanced mentoring. Conclusion: with the construction of healthy latrines, there has been a decrease in the incidence of diarhe in children. Diarrhea in children is one of the latent causes of stunting rates. By implementing this strategy, it is hoped that a significant increase will be achieved in preventing and reducing stunting rates in Sidoarjo Regency

Abstract

Introduction: Nutrition during pregnancy plays an important role in maternal health and fetal development. Lack of protein energy (KEP) in pregnant women can lead to a variety of health complications, including low birth weight (BBLR) and premature birth. This community service aims to provide health counseling on the effectiveness of education about breastfeeding in pregnant women. Methods: Data were collected using a descriptive approach with data obtained from two main sources: frequency distribution of demographic characteristics of extension participants (age and education level) and the results of breastfeeding education evaluation. A total of 50 mothers consisting of health cadres and pregnant women participated in counseling and evaluation activities. Results: The results showed that the majority of participants were aged 20 to 40 years (60%) with a high school level of education (48%). All participants (100%) felt that breastfeeding education activities were useful and needed to be provided continuously. Discussion: Breastfeeding counseling and education activities were considered positive by the participants and to increase the effectiveness of teaching methods so that the understanding of breastfeeding material can be more optimal, a further education program with a more interactive and personalized approach is needed for a better understanding among pregnant women, especially related to the importance of breastfeeding and correct breastfeeding techniques.
