Abstract

Background: Early detection of child growth and development plays a crucial role in ensuring children's readiness for formal education and preventing delays in intervention during the golden period of development. The reality in urban-rural transition areas shows that implementation is suboptimal due to low parental participation, limited teacher competency, and the limited availability of tested standardized instruments. Purpose: To describe the implementation of early childhood growth and development screening at Bungong Jaroe Kindergarten, Aceh Besar, and to identify factors related to the effectiveness of the screening. Methods: This descriptive research used a case study approach. The study population consisted of all children aged 4–6 years, teachers, parents, and PAUD administrators at Bungong Jaroe Kindergarten. Sampling used purposive sampling, including 20 children, 20 parents, 6 teachers, and 3 PAUD administrators, with inclusion criteria: children aged 4–6 years enrolled at Bungong Jaroe Kindergarten, teachers teaching for at least 1 year, and parents willing to be interviewed. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document reviews. The screening instruments used included the Child Development Card (KKA) and the Developmental Pre-Screening Questionnaire (KPSP), which had previously been tested for validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Implementation of growth and development screening at Bungong Jaroe Kindergarten is suboptimal, reflected in low parental participation only 50%, minimal teacher training, and limited use of standardized instruments. Children's nutritional status indicates a double burden of malnutrition, with 10% undernourished and 35% at risk of overnutrition. Factors related to screening effectiveness include teacher competence, parental awareness, instrument availability, and institutional support. Conclusion: Early detection of child growth and development at Bungong Jaroe Kindergarten remains limited. Strengthening teacher capacity, increasing parent participation, and developing an integrated monitoring system are needed to improve screening effectiveness.

Abstract

Health promotion media is a communication tool designed to accelerate education towards sustainable development (SDGs) in the health sector. Digital learning is an option to reduce limitations in the learning process. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of knowledge of health promotion media before and after digital learning. The research method is a pre-experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design without control. The number of samples was 38 Level I students in the odd semester of the 2026/2027 academic year, obtained by purposive sampling. The data collection method used a critical knowledge instrument in the form of a questionnaire. The results of the normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed, with a Wilcoxon pairwise correlation test p-value <0.05, meaning there was a difference in the average ability of participants in knowledge of health promotion media before and after digital learning. The average grouping of student knowledge based on the N-Gain value ≥0.30, namely 0.33 - 1.00, concluded that students' abilities in knowledge of health promotion media after effective digital learning improved better (medium category). This is because digital learning is a supporting factor in the health education movement.

Abstract

Diabetes Melitus (DM) merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular dengan prevalensi yang terus meningkat akibat perubahan gaya hidup masyarakat, seperti kurang aktivitas fisik, pola makan tidak sehat, dan rendahnya kesadaran dalam pencegahan penyakit. Upaya promotif dan preventif berbasis masyarakat diperlukan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan perilaku hidup sehat dalam pencegahan DM. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan perilaku masyarakat melalui edukasi kesehatan dan urban farming dalam pencegahan Diabetes Melitus di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Banda Raya Kota Banda Aceh. Metode pelaksanaan menggunakan pendekatan partisipatif melalui edukasi kesehatan, demonstrasi senam diabetes, senam kaki, pelatihan urban farming, pendampingan, serta monitoring dan evaluasi. Kegiatan penyuluhan dilaksanakan pada tanggal 28–29 April 2026 dengan jumlah peserta sebanyak 52 orang. Pengetahuan peserta diukur menggunakan Diabetes Knowledge Test (DKT), sedangkan perilaku self-management dinilai menggunakan Diabetes Self-Management Assessment (DSMA). Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan kategori baik dari 19,23% menjadi 57,69%, sedangkan perilaku self-management kategori baik meningkat dari 15,38% menjadi 51,92%. Selain itu, masyarakat mulai menerapkan pola hidup sehat melalui aktivitas fisik rutin, pengaturan pola makan, dan pemanfaatan pekarangan rumah untuk urban farming. Program ini terbukti mampu meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat terhadap pencegahan DM sekaligus mendukung ketahanan pangan keluarga. Green exercise dan urban farming dapat menjadi strategi promotif dan preventif berbasis komunitas dalam pencegahan Diabetes Melitus secara berkelanjutan.
