Abstract

Acute stroke is a medical emergency that can lead to permanent disability or death if not managed promptly and appropriately. In Wanaraya District, high population density, limited access to health care services, and low levels of health literacy contribute to suboptimal community preparedness in recognizing early signs of stroke and providing first aid. Despite strong social potential, such as the presence of community health volunteers and a culture of mutual cooperation, the community’s ability to identify stroke symptoms and respond rapidly remains limited. This activity aims to improve community knowledge and skills in recognizing the signs and symptoms of acute stroke and in providing timely, appropriate, and safe first aid through simulation-based emergency training. The program is expected to strengthen community preparedness and self-reliance in managing daily health emergencies, particularly acute stroke cases. In addition, this activity supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Goal 3 on good health and well-being and contributes to strengthening the role of higher education institutions in community service activities.

Abstract

Acute stroke is a neurological emergency that requires prompt management, as delays can result in permanent brain damage and even death. In Kelayan Subdistrict, community knowledge regarding the signs, symptoms, and initial actions for acute stroke remains low, which increases the risk of delayed treatment. Therefore, health education is necessary to enhance community preparedness in recognizing and responding to stroke appropriately. This study aimed to analyze the effect of health education on community preparedness in providing initial actions for acute stroke in Kelayan Subdistrict. The study employed a pre-experimental one group pretest–posttest design involving intervention and control groups, with interventions including counseling, leaflets and posters, and demonstrations of the FAST method. Community preparedness was measured before and after the intervention using questionnaires on knowledge, attitudes, and skills. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge, attitudes, skills, and overall preparedness scores in the intervention group following the health education program (p < 0.001), whereas the control group showed no significant changes (p > 0.05). These findings indicate that health education effectively enhances the community’s ability to recognize stroke signs and symptoms and take timely and appropriate initial actions. In conclusion, health education effectively improves the preparedness of the Kelayan Subdistrict community in responding to acute stroke and is recommended to be implemented routinely as a promotive and preventive measure to support early detection and timely response to stroke at the community level.
