Abstract

The community service activity themed “Utilizing Telemedicine to Improve the Health of the Young Generation” was conducted at Al-Mahrusiyah Elementary School, Kediri City. This initiative was a collaboration between IIK Bhakta Kediri and Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). Its objective was to enhance the health literacy of the young generation by utilizing telemedicine technology as an alternative for modern and efficient healthcare services. The community service activity involved 120 participants, consisting of 4th, 5th, and 6th-grade students. Participants attended sessions that included presentations on telemedicine, simulations of telemedicine application usage, and practical online health consultations. Before the activity began, a pretest was conducted to assess the participants’ initial knowledge of telemedicine. The pretest results showed that only 35% of the participants understood the basic concepts of telemedicine. After completing all the activities, a post-test revealed a significant improvement, with 88% of participants able to understand and explain the benefits and workings of telemedicine. Overall, the activity successfully achieved its goals of raising awareness and understanding among students about the importance of telemedicine as a modern solution for healthcare services. In addition to increasing knowledge, the activity also motivated participants to adopt this technology in their daily lives. It is hoped that through innovative approaches like this, the young generation in Kediri City can grow healthier and better prepared to face health challenges in the digital era.

Abstract

Perception of oral hygiene has a major impact on life expectancy worldwide, but in middle-income countries it is a problem, where oral health problems in Indonesia affect as much as 57.6% of the population. A semi-experimental study was conducted on October 30, 2024 on students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School, Kediri City, East Java, Indonesia. The study method was carried out offline (face-to-face) using a mixture of presentation media (power point) and booklets. The socialization participants were divided into two parts: pre-socialization (pre-test) and post-socialization (post-test). The socialization participants were given questions to assess their knowledge and perceptions of oral health before and after the socialization. Participants' knowledge was classified as sufficient, moderate, and low in understanding oral hygiene before and after the socialization. This counseling was carried out as part of a collaboration between the Faculty of Dentistry (FKG) of the Bhakti Wiyata Institute of Health Sciences (IIK) and the Faculty of Dentistry (FKG) of the University of Sains Malaysia (USIM). This counseling aims to improve dental health knowledge of students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School so that it is hoped that it can reduce the DMF-t rate in students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School.Keywords: Dental health; Oral health; Elementary school students; Faculty of Dentistry Institute Health Science Bhakti Wiyata; Faculty of Dentistry Universiti Sains Malaysia.
