Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women is a serious health problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 48.9% based on the 2018 Riskesdas data. This condition can have negative impacts on the health of both the mother and the fetus, such as increased risks of premature birth, low birth weight babies, and maternal and infant mortality. Anemia in pregnant women is generally caused by deficiencies in iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12. This community service activity aims to educate the public about preventing anemia among pregnant women, conducted at the Dahlia Posyandu in the working area of Puskesmas Ariodillah Palembang. The activities include outreach on the signs, symptoms, causes, and prevention of anemia, as well as hemoglobin (Hb) level examinations for early detection of anemia. The methods used are interactive socialization and health examinations, involving posyandu cadres and the surrounding community. The examination results indicate that no pregnant women were found to be anemic, and participants’ knowledge of anemia increased by 95% after attending the outreach. This activity is expected to raise public awareness of the importance of anemia prevention and health during pregnancy. Recommendations for follow-up programs include ongoing education, improving access to health services, and attention to the health of the elderly in the area.

Abstract

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) pose a growing threat to public health, especially among elderly populations. This community service program was conducted in RT 001 and RT 01A, 20 Ilir 4 Village, Palembang, focusing on early detection and education to prevent NCDs such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol. The program utilized a participatory action research approach, incorporating health screenings and interactive health education sessions. Activities included blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol measurements, and lifestyle counseling. The results demonstrated a significant increase in awareness and proactive health behaviors among residents. Over 60% of participants with high-risk conditions were referred for further medical evaluation. Regular exercise initiatives and dietary modifications were adopted by the community. The program also established health cadres trained to sustain these efforts post-intervention. This initiative highlights the effectiveness of early detection and education in reducing NCD risks and fostering long-term community health improvements.
