Abstract

Prevention and treatment of Covid-19 patients has been carried out with various strategies. Educational strategies can be carried out on patients during self-isolation or after self-isolation. Unissula initiated the Unissula Virtual home care innovation, namely UVHC as an effort to contribute to higher education during the pandemic. The UVHC program needs to be supported by volunteers who can assist Covid-19 patients in increasing their resilience to the problems experienced after Covid-19 so that conditions do not occur again. Assistance and empowerment of UVHC Volunteers aims to increase knowledge, skills and abilities in managing Covid-19 patients after self-isolation. This activity is carried out with training and demonstrations. After the activity, UVHC volunteers increased their knowledge of nutritional needs by 70%, skills in breathing exercises increased to 80%, knowledge of pharmacology needs to 70% and volunteer skills increased by 80% in teaching prayer procedures during illness as an effort to fulfill spiritual needs. The Service Team recommends the formation of volunteers in other fields to increase volunteer awareness in helping the healing process of Covid-19 patients after self isolation

Abstract

Washing hands with soap is an effort to prevent transmission of diseases caused by germs. Generally, the antibacterial substance in liquid soap is triclosan, but the use of triclosan is known to kill the good flora on the skin. Butterfly pea flower (clitoria ternatea) contains secondary metabolites which are known to have antibacterial activity such as flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids and tannins so it can be used as a substitute for triclosan. The program aims to increase the knowledge about the use of natural ingredients to be processed into liquid soap. The activity began with a pre-test, continued with a education and workshop on making liquid soap from a mixture of butterfly pea extract and surfactants, and ended with a discussion and post-test. The result of this activity showed that students were able to create butterfly pea flower handwashing soap, as indicated by a 100% increase in their knowledge and skills.
