Abstract

The phenomenon of non-communicable diseases not only affects adults but is also beginning to threaten the adolescent age group. Research shows that adolescents often do not realize that behaviors they consider normal, such as consuming sugary drinks, spending hours in front of screens, and lack of exercise, significantly contribute to the risk of NCDs later in life. This community service activity will be conducted using methods including a pre-test, lecture, group discussion, and post-test. Before the activity begins, a pre-test will be administered to the participants to assess their initial knowledge about preventing non-communicable diseases in adolescents. Following that, the lecture method will be used to educate the adolescents about the prevention of non-communicable diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cholesterol, as well as their risk factors. After the lecture, a group discussion and Q&A session between the presenter and the participants will be conducted. A post-test will be administered again one week later to assess the effectiveness of the education. A significant result of this activity is the increase in students' knowledge regarding the prevention of NCDs.

Abstract

Children with special needs often face challenges in implementing daily living skills, including hygiene habits such as hand washing. In orphanages, they may not always receive enough individualized attention to learn and master this skill. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide education in the form of knowledge and procedures for proper hand washing and improve the skills of children with special needs so that they can independently wash their own hands. This community service activity uses an individual or small group approach with a direct demonstration method and uses audiovisual aids such as videos and posters. The results of this community service obtained an increase in the knowledge of children with special needs in hand washing skills as many as 9 children (30%) in the category of good independence ability, 18 children (60%) in the category of sufficient independence ability, and 3 children (10%) in the category of less independence ability. It is hoped that this education can be carried out regularly, especially for orphanage assistants. Thus it can further improve the knowledge and skills of children with special needs in washing hands independently to build clean and healthy living habits.

Abstract

Low health literacy leads to unhealthy behavior and the potential for long-term health problems. The school environment, as the primary place for character and knowledge formation, is a strategic location for implementing various health promotion programs. Improving health literacy through health promotion is one of the government's preventive programs. This study aims to evaluate the effect of health promotion programs on improving health literacy among junior high school students. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test approach without a control group. The sample consisted of 60 students using purposive sampling. The intervention carried out in this study was health promotion carried out by conducting interactive counseling on PHBS and how to wash hands properly with the help of educational media in the form of short videos. The instrument used in this study was a knowledge questionnaire regarding PHBS. The questionnaire has passed validity and reliability tests with Cronbach's values. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed an average knowledge score increase from 60.60 to 84.00 after the intervention, with a mean difference of 23.40 and a p-value of 0.000 (≤0.05). There was a significant difference between the level of family knowledge before and after the intervention. Health promotion interventions can improve health literacy related to clean and healthy living behaviors in school students. Schools should integrate health literacy materials into the school curriculum, particularly in science, physical education, and guidance and counseling.

Emergencies require fast and precise treatment. For this reason, health education and education programs are needed in schools, especially in providing emergency treatment to UKS cadres. Community service activities aim to increase the knowledge and skills of UKS cadres in providing emergency care that occurs in schools and providing optimal health services in schools. The method used in this community service is lectured in the form of health education through counseling and demonstrations related to first aid measures for emergency cases that can occur at school, such as fainting, wounds and bleeding, broken bones, and cardiac arrest. Community service activities will be held on July 2 2024 with the target of the activity being Nahdatul Ulama Middle School students and UKS cadres. Community service activities begin with a lecture related to the concept and handling of everyday emergencies that might occur at school, followed by a demonstration of handling techniques, as well as questions and answers. Evaluation is carried out by giving questionnaires at the beginning (pre) and end (post) to participants. As well as a re-demonstration of the first actions for handling emergency cases.
