<![CDATA[Background: The Tenggilis Public Health Center (Puskesmas Tenggilis) is devoted to implementing Community Health Efforts (UKM) to ensure the provision of high-quality healthcare services, focusing on the measurement, monitoring, and supervision of local health problems. A Self-Assessment Survey (Survey Mawas Diri” (SMD) in Indonesian language) was conducted in Panjang Jiwo Village, Surabaya, revealing hyperten”sion as a primary health issue. Characterized by a systolic blood pressure ?140 mmHg and a diastolic pressure ?90 mmHg, hypertension remains widespread, with many residents unaware of the necessity for lifelong medication adherence and routine blood pressure monitoring. Methods: To address this health challenge, a thorough analysis was conducted, examining the root causes through the "man, method, machine, and material" framework. This approach informed the development of a targeted intervention strategy. Results:The intervention involved designing and distributing a Hypertension Calendar, providing an accessible means for residents to record their blood pressure readings and track medication adherence throughout the year. The calendar serves as a useful tool during healthcare visits, fostering enhanced dialogue between patients and healthcare providers regarding hypertension management. Conclusions: The introduction of the Hypertension Calendar aims to empower individuals with essential knowledge and tools for effective hypertension management, ultimately contributing to improved health outcomes in the Panjang Jiwo community.
