Abstract

An unbalanced diet can have a negative impact on people's nutritional status. Therefore, nutrition training is considered an effective intervention strategy to improve diet and nutritional status. This research aims to evaluate the effect of nutrition training on people's eating patterns and nutritional status through an intervention study. This research method uses an intervention approach with a pre-test and post-test design involving people randomly selected from a certain area. Nutrition training is held with a focus on understanding balanced nutrition and implementing healthy eating patterns. Dietary pattern data was collected through questionnaires, and nutritional status analysis was carried out by measuring nutritional and anthropometric parameters before and after the intervention. The research results showed a significant increase in people's understanding of balanced nutrition and positive changes in their eating patterns after attending nutrition training. Apart from that, there have been substantial improvements in people's nutritional status, such as increasing body mass index (BMI) and optimal nutritional levels. This research concludes that nutrition training is effective in improving healthy eating patterns and the nutritional status of the community. This shows the importance of a focused intervention approach to increase nutritional awareness and behaviour in an effort to improve overall community health. This research makes an important contribution to the development of nutritional intervention strategies that can be widely applied to enhance community welfare. Therefore, it is recommended to pursue further research with a focus on the long-term effects of nutrition training and increasing accessibility to nutrition resources.

Abstract

The elderly patient population is vulnerable to various chronic diseases and has limited levels of access to health information. Effective health promotion programs can improve the quality of life of this group and prevent disease. A health promotion program is a series of activities aimed at increasing awareness, knowledge and healthy behaviour in a population or community. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a health promotion program implemented with elderly patients in clinical practice in improving their knowledge, healthy living behaviour and health outcomes. This research method was carried out using a quasi-experimental design using a sample of elderly patients who participated in a six-month health promotion program at a community health clinic. Data collection was carried out through pre- and post-intervention questionnaires, and data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing. The results of this study show an increase in patient knowledge about healthy eating patterns, physical activity, and stress management after participating in the health promotion program. In addition, there have been positive changes in healthy lifestyle behaviour and a reduction in the number of visits to health facilities due to diseases related to unhealthy lifestyles. The conclusion of this research is that health promotion programs for elderly patients in clinical practice are effective in increasing knowledge, improving healthy living behaviour, and reducing the risk of chronic disease. The recommendations of this study are to expand the scope of health promotion programs in various clinical settings and continue to encourage the participation of elderly patients to achieve optimal health outcomes.
