Abstract

Over the past few decades, new approaches to health promotion have been developed. The target of health promotion is all ages, including children. Elementary school-age children do not yet know what is good for their physical health, including choosing healthy snacks. Consuming unsafe food can cause health problems in groups of people, leading to increasing health disparities globally. Children buy snacks based on their preferences without paying attention to the food ingredients. Children still have relatively little knowledge about healthy snacks. The aim of this activity is to provide outreach to educate elementary school-age children about healthy snacks and the importance of balanced nutrition. Community service activities were carried out on July 28 2021 from 07.30 WIB to 10.30 WIB in the classrooms of SD Negeri 03 Bukit Tambun Tulang attended by students in grades 4 and 5 and accompanied by teachers. The activity consists of 3 stages, including the preparation stage, followed by the implementation stage, and closing with the evaluation stage. The activity was carried out by the Andalas Nagari IV Koto Hilie University KKN Team which is a collaboration from various departments. It is hoped that the results of this community service can shape students' attitudes and behavior towards improving health, especially in choosing healthy snacks and nutritious food at school and at home. During the implementation of this community service activity, students and teachers actively participated in this activity. Through the evaluation carried out at the end of the event, students and teachers gave positive responses, and it is hoped that similar activities can improve the understanding and skills of teachers and students at SDN 03 Bukit Tambun Tulang.

Abstract

Health education within schools plays a crucial role in enhancing children's health and establishing a safe and healthy learning environment. Despite this, the risk of illness in schools remains a concern, particularly for elementary school-aged children who are susceptible to sanitation-related health issues. The “Dokter Kecil” (or School Health Ambassador) program is designed to engage students in promoting the health of individuals, families, and their surroundings. This research aims to reintroduce the program in the Puskesmas Seberang Padang area, focusing on a promotive and preventive approach known as DINOS. The program's effectiveness was evaluated using pre-test and post-test questionnaires to assess the knowledge of the student participants. Based on the normality test of pretest and post-test score data using statistical tests, it is found that the Sig value (2-tailed) is 0.002 < 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the results of the DINOS material exposure and simulation on pre-test and post-test data. Data analysis revealed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results, indicating the effectiveness of the material presentation and DINOS simulation. These results are expected to help better school health program implementation and more successfully address health issues for Indonesian school-age children, especially in the Puskesmas Seberang Padang area.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the chronic diseases that has received attention in Indonesia. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) stated that diabetes is among the global emergencies with the fastest growth in the 21st century. The prevalence of this disease is estimated to continue increasing worldwide. Health promotion is one of the preventive efforts that can be undertaken, one of which is through educational methods. The aim is for the community to have sufficient knowledge so that they are willing to maintain and preserve their health. Increasing knowledge about diabetes is crucial to raise awareness of health maintenance. Health education can be implemented in community service activities. This activity was carried out on July 30, 2023, in Koto Majidin Mudik Village, Kerinci Regency, Jambi Province. The activity was conducted through the stages of preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The activity was carried out by the Community Service (KKN) team from Andalas University 2023, Koto Majidin Mudik Village, which was a collaboration of various departments, working in cooperation with the village and the Kemantan Community Health Center (Puskesmas). During the implementation of the activity, the community actively participated. Through the evaluation conducted at the end of the activity, the village, health center, and the community provided positive responses. The results of this community service are expected to provide knowledge, especially in the prevention of diabetes mellitus, and an understanding of healthy lifestyles, thereby forming a healthy community for the future quality of human resources.
