Abstract

Introduction: Early mobilization after surgery plays a crucial role in accelerating the patient’s recovery process and preventing complications such as deep vein thrombosis, pneumonia, and delayed wound healing. Despite its importance, the knowledge and participation of patients’ families in supporting early mobilization remain low. Family involvement is essential because proper support and motivation can significantly influence the patient’s postoperative recovery process. Objective: This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and attitudes of patients’ families regarding early mobilization after surgery at Setio Husodo Hospital, Kisaran. Method: The program was implemented through socialization and educational sessions conducted using interactive lectures, group discussions, demonstrations, and direct practice under the supervision of health workers. A pre-test and post-test design was used to assess changes in participants’ knowledge and attitudes toward early mobilization. Data were analyzed descriptively to identify improvement levels among participants. Result: The results showed a significant improvement in participants’ understanding and awareness. After the intervention, 90% of families were able to explain the benefits, techniques, and proper stages of early mobilization, compared to only 45% before the program. The activity also fostered a more positive attitude among families in motivating patients to move gradually after surgery, while ensuring safety and comfort under professional supervision. Conclusion: Family health education effectively increases knowledge and participation in early mobilization after surgery. The program successfully empowered families to take an active role in supporting postoperative recovery. Therefore, it is recommended that similar family-based education programs be implemented regularly as part of standard postoperative care in hospitals.

Abstract

Back pain is one of the most common complaints experienced by postpartum mothers, primarily due to changes in posture during pregnancy and the labor process. Non-pharmacological management, such as effleurage massage with the aid of essential oils, is believed to effectively reduce pain levels. This study aims to determine the level of back pain in postpartum mothers before and after the administration of effleurage massage using lemongrass and eucalyptus essential oils, and to analyze the effect of this therapy on reducing back pain at the Gambir Baru Public Health Center (Puskesmas). This study utilized a quantitative method with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 30 postpartum mothers who met the inclusion criteria, selected using a total sampling technique. The pain measurement instrument used was the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale (VAS) observation sheet. Effleurage massage combined with lemongrass and eucalyptus essential oils is proven effective in reducing back pain in postpartum mothers. This therapy can serve as an alternative non-pharmacological intervention in postpartum midwifery care.
