Hypertension is a non-communicable disease which frequently occurs in the elderly. This study aimed to assess hypertension and knowledge as well as hypertension and eating patterns among elderly in the coastal areas. The design of this study is cross-sectional study. The population in this study were elderly with hypertension who lived in the Sukolilo Health Center area in Bangkalan. The sample was selected using simple random sampling of 110 elderlies. The inclusion criteria were elderly who were aged ≥60 years old with systolic blood pressure (SBP) of >140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of >90 mmHg. The instrument was food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). The blood pressure was measured by using standard operating procedures. The data were analyzed by the Spearman’s rank test. The results indicated that most of the respondents were lack of knowledge of 66 people (29.1%) and had a poor eating pattern of 78 people (70.9%). Most of the respondents were in the moderate hypertension of 52 people (47.3%). The statistical analysis indicated a relationship between knowledge and the incidence of hypertension of p=0.004 (p<0.05; r=0.974). In conclusion, understanding about blood pressure control is required to prevent hypertension.

Abstract

A reliable internal quality assurance system is one of the keys to ensuring the hospital management process is in accordance with the vision and mission as well as improving quality and patient safety. The purpose of this community service was to conduct training and mentoring at Bunda General Hospital to develop digitization-based priority quality indicators. The community service methods that have been applied include mentoring and training to 40-unit leaders. The media used were leaflets, logbooks, and training manuals. This community service was carried out in December 2023. At the end of the activity, the results showed an increase in the knowledge of the head of the unit in compiling hospital quality indicators. The increase in knowledge and skills in preparing quality indicators before training has an average score of 45, after training knowledge and skills increase with an average score of 91. Training and assistance to unit heads at Bunda Hospital in compiling quality indicators is needed as a benchmark for unit performance to improve the quality of Bunda Hospital services. The quality of hospital services can be improved directly with intensive assistance in compiling performance indicators.
