Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease that represents a major global health challenge, including in Indonesia. It is characterized by a persistent increase in blood glucose levels due to disruptions in insulin production or function within the body. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has grown at an alarming rate worldwide, with projections indicating a steady upward trend in the coming decades. In Indonesia, this increase is closely linked to unhealthy lifestyle changes such as poor dietary patterns, lack of physical activity, and limited health awareness. The problem is further worsened by low public knowledge regarding the importance of early detection and effective diabetic self-management. Optimal management of diabetes requires a comprehensive approach that combines medical treatment with empowering patients to consistently practice self-care. The purpose of this community service was to examine the effectiveness of health education in improving self-care practices among DM patients at Sosodoro Djatikoesoemo Bojonegoro Regional General Hospital. The program applied a Community-Based Health Education model with participatory learning methods centered on community needs, delivered through lectures and discussions. Evaluation was conducted using pre- and post-tests with questionnaires for 25 participants. The results showed that after counseling, 60% (15 respondents) achieved good self-care. Counseling significantly enhanced diabetic self-management, as reflected in improved scores and a positive shift in categories across all assessed aspects.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease with a globally increasing prevalence, representing a major public health concern in the 21st century. This community service aimed to conduct a diabetes mellitus socialization program to enhance family members’ knowledge about the disease. Limited knowledge among the public often leads to delayed diagnosis, inadequate management, and higher risk of complications. A participatory approach and health education method were applied, emphasizing contextual, sustainable, evidence-based, and gender-sensitive principles. The program involved several stages, including stakeholder coordination, baseline surveys, needs assessment, development and delivery of training materials, and final evaluation. A total of 25 participants from families of diabetes patients at Dr. Sosodoro Djatikoesomo Bojonegoro Hospital took part in the program. Findings revealed that the intervention significantly improved participants’ knowledge, with an average score increase of 25.4 points or 52.7% from the pre-test (p < 0.001). Knowledge distribution shifted positively from a majority in the poor category (68%) to the fair-to-good category (92%). The greatest improvement was found in diabetes complications (36.4 points), followed by diabetes management (34.1 points), and diabetes symptoms (13.6 points). Participants’ satisfaction reached 100%, with 96% reporting being very satisfied. Interactive learning through discussion sessions proved effective in transferring knowledge and correcting misconceptions.
