<![CDATA[Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza) has been recognised as one of Indonesia’s leading medicinal plants due to its numerous health benefits, particularly in supporting liver function, boosting the immune system, and improving digestion. However, its utilisation in primary healthcare services remains limited due to a lack of knowledge among healthcare professionals regarding its benefits and active compounds, as well as proper cultivation and processing methods. This community service programme aimed to enhance the literacy and practical skills of healthcare personnel at UPTD Puskesmas I Denpasar Utara through educational sessions and hands-on training in temulawak cultivation and simplisia processing. The methodology involved pre-test and post-test assessments to measure participants' knowledge improvement. The evaluation results showed a significant increase, with 75% of participants achieving a perfect score after the training. Additionally, participants’ expectations regarding the benefits of the programme rose from 86.4% to 90%, while satisfaction with the training materials reached 91.36%. These findings indicate that the training effectively improved participants' knowledge and skills. Future programmes should focus on developing more interactive educational modules and conducting advanced practical sessions to ensure the sustainable application of acquired knowledge in primary healthcare services.]]>
