Abstract

Minor head injuries and sprains are two types of injuries that frequently occur in the home, especially among vulnerable age groups such as toddlers and the elderly. Lack of public knowledge regarding the initial treatment of these injuries can result in delayed medical intervention and increase the risk of complications. This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to educate families on how to recognize, assess, and administer first aid for minor head injuries and sprains at home. The activity methods included interactive counseling, first aid simulations, discussions, and the distribution of educational media in the form of leaflets. The activity was conducted in Tamasaju Village, Takalar Regency, and involved 45 participants, consisting of parents of toddlers and family members caring for the elderly. Evaluation results showed an increase in participants' knowledge and skills in independently managing minor injuries. This activity is expected to increase family preparedness and reduce the risk of adverse effects from untreated injuries.

Abstract

Background: Posyandu (Integrated Health Post for the Elderly) is a preventive and promotive health service aimed at improving the quality of life of the elderly. However, attendance rates for the elderly are still relatively low. One factor influencing elderly compliance is social support from family, peers, and the surrounding environment. Objective: To determine the effect of social support on elderly compliance in participating in the Posyandu program. Methods: This study used a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. A sample of 92 elderly people was selected using a purposive sampling technique in the working area of Community Health Center X. The instrument used was a social support and compliance questionnaire, which had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using binary logistic regression. Results: The majority of respondents (71.7%) had high social support, and 65.2% of elderly people were classified as compliant in attending Posyandu. Statistical tests showed that social support significantly influenced elderly compliance (p = 0.001; OR = 3.45). Conclusion: Social support significantly influences elderly compliance in participating in Posyandu activities. Recommendation: Enhancing the role of families and cadres in providing emotional, informational, and practical support is crucial for increasing elderly participation.
