Abstract

Introduction: This community service program aims to support hemodialysis patients in managing anxiety through health education and the implementation of Neurographic Art Therapy. Method: The program was carried out through socialization activities, training in therapeutic drawing techniques, the use of digital media for continuous mentoring, and evaluation of patients’ conditions before and after the intervention. Result:   The program improved patients’ knowledge, coping skills, and independence in managing anxiety, accompanied by a measurable decrease in anxiety levels (average score decreased from 18.09 to 10.28). The program outputs included printed and digital educational modules, video tutorials, and the establishment of a patient community as a sustainability effort. Conclusion:The impact of this community service is reflected in increased emotional calmness, strengthened psychosocial support, and the application of art therapy as a practical non-pharmacological approach in patient assistance services, with the expectation that this therapy can become part of routine supportive care in hospitals.
