Abstract

Children with special needs face various barriers to learning and development. Play therapy is one way to help them develop optimally and perform their social functions effectively. Play therapy is a therapeutic activity that utilizes toys and games to facilitate children's expression of various emotions, including happiness, sadness, anger, resentment, depression, and others. The goal of this activity is to help children with special needs increase their concentration and develop creativity and motor skills. The method of implementing play therapy in children with special needs involves several approaches and strategies tailored to individual needs, including group play therapy, structured play therapy, visual techniques, and motor training through penguin gymnastics. Activities are divided into several sessions. During the first session, we divided the children into three groups using a division system that involved coloring paper pictures of three different types of animals. Once the coloring session concluded, the children transitioned to the next activity, which involved arranging pyramids using plastic cups to enhance their concentration, despite their frequent distractions in practice. The last activity is for children to do motor exercises with penguin gymnastics. Children with special needs follow each session according to the therapist's direction. We hope that the child's parents will participate regularly and schedule the activities to ensure the program's sustainability.

Abstract

The Postoperative phase is a critical period in the recovery of surgical patients. During this phase, many patients experience fatigue. Postoperative fatigue is challenging and affects quality of life. Back massage is a complementary therapy performed to manage fatigue and reduce muscle tension. For this reason, a family empowering program was conducted in one of the surgical wards in one of the government hospitals in Sumedang, which was attended by 10 participants consisting of patient families. Program participants are families of patients undergoing surgery. Based on the records obtained, the patient's family experienced an increase in knowledge measured through pre-test and post-test. At the pre-test stage, the percentage of participants who had poor knowledge was 50% and after participating in the program decreased to 30%. Meanwhile, the percentage at the good knowledge level at the pre-test was 20% and at the post-test there was an increase to 40%. Based on this percentage, it was found that there was an increase in participants' knowledge before and after the program related to the implementation of foot massage in order to manage fatigue. Back massage is recommended to be presented as an option in developing fatigue management strategies in postoperative patients.
