The growing evidence and technology in healthcare improve the patient's health across a continuum of services in clinical and community settings. A multidisciplinary team should work in tandem on this phenomenon. Therefore, innovative healthcare technology must be designed intensively to optimize productivity, provide new insight, and support the standard treatment for particular diseases. In the coming years, technology is needed to change the way of caring for the patient. Updated studies should be developed and published focusing on innovative technology, including in Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and other health-related topics.

The health manifesto highlighted that studies on innovation flourish when all sides of the knowledge triangle (research, academia, and industry) work in tandem to enhance the quality of care. This opportunity should go much better than implementing theoretical and academic work in universities worldwide. Experts are developing health innovation in higher education to deal with this situation. Therefore, this preface from two experts in the field encourages the importance of publishing studies on innovation in health to reduce health problems and issues in healthcare services in clinical or community practice.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed nearly every aspect of human life, from the individual (how people live, work, and keep their health) to the professional (how healthcare professionals work). Unfortunately, more than three-quarters also approved that the pandemic created significant new opportunities for human growth, although this varies significantly worldwide. Of course, seeing the opportunities developing is not always the same as being able to seize them at times. Fewer than 50 percent of healthcare professionals feel confident that they are prepared to overcome the issues in the COVID-19 era. Most of the human aspect needs health innovation to prevent the long-term outcomes of the pandemic. As expected, they are focusing on maintaining the healthcare system and its continuity, especially in hospital and community settings. Therefore, developing innovation in health, driving productivity and implementing safety measures is needed during the never-ending pandemic. Leaders in the healthcare sector should provide essential strategies supporting innovation-led growth.

Using plants to develop therapy or treatment in humans seems to be a potential way to improve patient outcomes. The continuum of plant genetics changing into foods that improve health is an applicable strategy at this present. Horticultural Science, microbial biology, bioprocessing, and nutrition sciences require during the process. Therefore, the role of healthcare professionals including medical doctors, pharmacists, and nurses is needed to discover the benefits and process them into usable objects. Establishing coordinated efforts in the evolution of the resources to address health issues and ensure a successful way with institute initiatives program. Also, clarifying and delivering information to the public can be very useful to counteract the symptoms. In addition, a need for translation research along with innovative technology will reach the objective of this issue.

The world reached a point where it was starting to change from a COVID-19 pandemic footing to an endemic area. Although variants of SARS-CoV-2 (novel coronavirus) pend this trajectory, the country may be ready to reimagine its effect on public health systems. Over two years ago, as new variants of COVID-19 emerged, Indonesia's public-health priorities focused on the essential missions of getting society assessed, vaccinated, and boosted while maintaining access to healthcare in hospitals. Inequalities predating the pandemic were laid bare as historically marginalized communities bore the brunt of the pandemic's ill impacts. Many healthcare professionals are now redressing vulnerabilities and planning a more robust path against infection. To help guide them on this journey, the healthcare provider should set forth four imperatives authorities consider when developing a comprehensive strategy to live with COVID-19. As the transition from pandemic to endemic is on the way, defining the next normal, tracking progress, limiting illness and death, and slowing transmission should be performed massively. Governments have a unique role in stewarding evolution by supporting innovative technology to deal with other health issues. The ground on which this next ordinary settle determines whether the lessons during the pandemic are heeded and could create a new habit for public-healthcare systems to emerge more responsive to whatever challenges lie in the future. Finally hope, this pandemic will end soon, and people may generally live without concerns.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought to light some of the most severe flaws in the healthcare system, but it also sparked a flurry of ideas resulting in a significantly enhanced delivery system. These were innovations that were brought about as a direct result of a pressing need: telenursing for community services; telemedicine access and use skyrocketed; new hospital-at-home services emerged; ambulatory surgical centres expanded their menu of procedures; and a variety of novel therapeutics were introduced, including the widespread distribution of vaccines, new medical diagnostics, and innovative monoclonal antibodies. A new era of digital medicine during the endemic may be on the horizon due to the proliferation of new services that feature adaptable delivery methods. Therefore, healthcare professionals need to improve the system, including reevaluating and redeveloping it for a better quality of care in clinical settings and community.

Hypertension is a cardiovascular disease characterized by elevated blood pressure. However, studies on the use of water immersion to reduce hypertension are scarce in the literature. Therefore, this study aims to provide an overview of the application of warm water foot soaks with a mixture of salt to reduce blood pressure in elderly individuals with hypertension. The research design for this study utilizes a case study approach with purposive sampling. The author systematically observed hypertension patients and collected factual data. A sample of elderly patients with stage 1 hypertension, aged 56 years, was selected. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. This study indicates that warm water foot soak therapy with a mixture of salt can reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure after 6 sessions, with each session lasting 15–20 minutes. The application of warm water foot soaks with a mixture of salt can lower blood pressure due to the dilation of blood vessels, which reduces muscle tension and increases tissue metabolism. Warm water foot soaks with a mixture of salt appear to be an effective method for reducing blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension. Further research is recommended to explore this therapy's long-term benefits and potential applications.
