Abstract

Scabies is a contagious skin disease caused by Sarcoptes scabiei mite. Scabies causes intense itching, especially at night, rashes, and scratches that can lead to secondary bacterial infections. Sleep disturbances due to itching can reduce quality of life and trigger stress, anxiety, and decreased concentration. People with scabies often experience negative stigma because the disease is related to poor hygiene, even though it can be transmitted through close contact in crowded environments such as homes, schools, or orphanages. The purpose of this study is to analyze the risk factors for scabies at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency. This study used a cross-sectional design. The sample size was 66 respondents using stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire administered to 66 students at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency and processed using SPSS. The results of the univariate analysis showed that most respondents (60.6%) had poor personal hygiene, most respondents (65.2%) had sufficient knowledge, most respondents (62.1%) lived in densely populated areas, and most respondents (54.5%) had experienced scabies. The bivariate analysis results showed that there was a correlation between personal hygiene and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.004), a correlation between knowledge and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.002), and a correlation between housing density and the incidence of scabies (p value = 0.035) at Hidayatul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Rejang Lebong Regency. It is hoped that Islamic Boarding Schools, with the assistance of local health centers, can optimize preventive and promotional programs about factors related to scabies.

Hypertension is a common chronic disease among the elderly and poses a risk of serious complications, including stroke, heart disease, and organ dysfunction. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of elderly exercise in reducing blood pressure among hypertensive elderly in RT 14, Jalan Gedang Subdistrict, Bengkulu City. The method used was a community service program involving health education, counseling, and hypertensive exercise practice conducted by 11 students of the S1 KKN students from the Faculty of Health Sciences, Dehasen University, Bengkulu together with cadres and community leaders, in collaboration with community cadres and local leaders. The exercise sessions lasted 30 minutes, recommended to be performed once a week, accompanied by blood pressure monitoring to observe the intervention's effects. Observations showed that the elderly in RT 14 had a high prevalence of hypertension, influenced by lifestyle factors, dietary patterns, and family history. Through this program, the community received education about hypertension, non-pharmacological therapy, and exercise practices that could lower blood pressure and improve the quality of life of the elderly. The program was also supported by the distribution of leaflets as additional educational media. In conclusion, regular elderly exercise integrated with health education can enhance knowledge, awareness, and self-management among the elderly in controlling hypertension. This activity is expected to serve as a sustainable health promotion model for the elderly community in the local area.
