Abstract

The Brain-breaks program is presented as a program designed to improve children's motor and cognitive abilities. This program presents movements that will improve neuroplasticity mechanisms in order to improve short-term memory and attention skills in a fun and easy to follow way. The aim of this community service activity is that participants can carry out physical training movements in the form of motor and cognitive exercises which can then be assessed on cognitive function. A total of 21 students from SD Inpres Kera-Kera participated in this activity. Activity participants showed satisfactory results in memory and attention abilities after giving the Brain-Breaks program through measuring the digit span test which showed an increase in 14 students, measuring the Stroop test where there was an increase in the word test from 85.7% before giving the program to reach 100 % after giving the program followed by the color test from 62% to 90.4%, and the color-word test score from 4.76% to 23.8%, as well as the distribution of knowledge and mastery of the brain-breaks program material which increased from 0% to 100% after giving the program, apart from that, participants have also been able to practice the types of games that have been given with the help of the class teacher or done independently.

Abstract

The number of older adults in Indonesia, particularly in Makassar City, has led to a growing demand for preventive, promotive, curative, and rehabilitative health services. Older adults are vulnerable to declines in lower-limb muscle strength, balance, and an increased risk of falls, all of which affect their quality of life. This community service program was designed to provide comprehensive management through education, functional screening, and physiotherapy interventions in the form of elderly exercise programs and Otago Exercise balance training. Elderly exercise has been shown to reduce depression, improve sleep quality, enhance respiratory function, and strengthen social interaction. Meanwhile, the Otago Exercise focuses on improving lower-limb muscle strength, enhancing both static and dynamic balance, and preventing falls. Muscle strength screening was conducted using the Two Minute Step Test. The program’s implementation demonstrated improvements in physical fitness, balance, and independence in daily activities among older adults. With a structured functional physiotherapy approach, this program is expected to provide a sustainable solution for improving the physical, psychological, social, and cognitive health of the elderly.
