Abstract

This study discusses the risk of falls among the elderly in Siantar Martoba District, which increases with aging due to declining muscle mass and bone health. The risk is exacerbated by external factors such as non-elderly-friendly home environments and polypharmacy. Falls have serious physical impacts, such as fractures, as well as psychological consequences, including excessive fear of falling again (Post-Fall Syndrome). This study proposes a community-based educational intervention using a multifactorial approach that includes cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. The expected outcomes are improved knowledge, confidence, and skills among the elderly in preventing and managing fall risks, thereby enhancing their independence and quality of life.

Abstract

Stroke is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide, including in Indonesia. Stroke patients often experience impaired motor and sensory function, as well as limitations in daily activities, requiring ongoing rehabilitation treatment. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in improving the quality of life of stroke patients through structured and ongoing exercise programs. This community service activity aims to provide education about physiotherapy exercise programs to stroke patients at Efarina Hospital in Berastagi. The methods used include counseling, exercise demonstrations, and direct support for patients and their families. The results of the activity indicate an increase in patient and family understanding of the importance of physiotherapy exercises and increased participation in independent exercise. Thus, the education provided can optimally support the rehabilitation process for stroke patients.
