Abstract

The Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) is a systematic and planned action carried out jointly by all components of the nation with awareness, willingness and ability to behave healthily to improve the quality of life. The implementation of GERMAS must start from the family, because the family is the smallest part of society that forms personality. GERMAS can be done by: Doing physical activity, consuming vegetables and fruit, not smoking, not consuming alcohol, checking your health regularly, cleaning the environment, and using a toilet. In the initial stage, GERMAS nationally started by focusing on three activities, namely: 1) Carrying out 30 minutes of physical activity per day, 2) Consuming fruit and vegetables; and 3) Check your health regularly. GERMAS is a national movement initiated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia which prioritizes promotive and preventive efforts, without neglecting curative-rehabilitative efforts by involving all components of the nation in promoting the healthy paradigm. To make GERMAS a success, you cannot only rely on the role of the health sector alone. The aim of this community service activity is to socialize the program that has been created by the government so that good habits can be achieved in society with healthy community living habits. Local Community Health Center... Based on this, the DIII Nursing Study Program feels it is necessary to socialize the Community Healthy Living Movement by carrying out regional guidance, especially for health cadres and DM patients in the Purbaratu Community Health Center Area, Tasikmalaya City.

Abstract

The third trimester of pregnancy is a period prone to increased anxiety due to physical and emotional changes, as well as concerns about the upcoming childbirth. If left unaddressed, anxiety may negatively affect both the mother and the fetus, leading to complications such as preterm labor or obstetric disorders. Based on this condition, this study aims to determine the effect of squishy ball therapy on anxiety scores among third-trimester pregnant women in the working area of Tamansari Public Health Center. The theoretical basis of this research includes the concepts of pregnancy, anxiety, maternal anxiety, squishy ball therapy, the benefits, use, and effects of squishy ball therapy. This study utilized a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach, involving 19 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The instrument used was the Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale (PASS) questionnaire. The paired t-test results showed a decrease in anxiety scores from a mean of 40.05 to 28.21 with a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect. This decrease demonstrates that simple activities such as repeatedly squeezing a squishy ball can stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, increase endorphin release, and produce a relaxing effect that helps reduce anxiety levels. This therapy is non-pharmacological, practical, easy to perform, and has no side effects, making it highly suitable for use as an independent nursing intervention. The conclusion of this study states that squishy ball therapy is effective in reducing anxiety in third-trimester pregnant women. It is recommended that this therapy be integrated into independent nursing practices in antenatal care services and be included as learning material in nursing education.
