This service activity is held at the Tresna Werdha Budi Luhur Social Institution Jambi from November to December 2022. The aim is for the elderly to understand how to live a clean and healthy lifestyle so that the elderly can regulate their lifestyle and can apply it to their daily lives. A healthy lifestyle can help the elderly maintain or improve their health condition. Efforts to increase PHBS for the elderly must be carried out by motivating the elderly to carry out PHBS and continue to provide counseling about PHBS in orphanages.
