Abstract

Pregnant women are a vulnerable group for mental health problems. This community service aims to increase the involvement of nurses in early detection of mental health and stress management for pregnant women. The methods used include outreach, health education, training and demonstrations on early detection of mental health and its treatment. The targets of the community service program are puskesmas nurses and pregnant women who attend antenatal care. The results of the activity show that nurses are able to carry out early detection of mental health with a self-reporting questionnaire. The results of early detection showed that 7 pregnant women who visited the Puskesmas Rowosari for antenatal care had mental health problems characterized by feeling anxious about their first pregnancy, physical changes, delivery process, and condition of the fetus and helpless due to lack of husband's support. After being given stress management in the form of imagery guides, progressive muscle relaxation and yoga, pregnant women said they were calmer, thought positively, and had less anxiety. In addition, knowledge and skills regarding mental health also increased.
