Hypertension, a non-communicable disease, exhibits significant death and suffering rates worldwide, including in Indonesia. Hypertension ranks as the third leading cause of mortality in Indonesia, following strokes and tuberculosis, primarily impacting the older population. Dusun 2 Karangwuni is a region that experiences a high mortality rate due to hypertension. The hypertension screening findings revealed that out of the 49 elderly visitors to Posyandu, 41 of them were found to have hypertension. The team's objective is to implement the dedication of Lansia Berdaya's activities in managing hypertension in Dusun Two village, Karangwuni, Weru district. The Lansia activities occur in Dukuh Ngampas, Dusun 2, Village KarangWuni, district Weru, Sukoharjo.
