Abstract

The introduction of the pharmacist profession serves as an effort to broaden children's understanding of the roles and contributions of health professions in daily life, including the proper use of medications. Additionally, teachers in kindergartens play a central role in ensuring safety at school, including performing first aid when necessary. Therefore, this community service program aims to enhance the knowledge of Al Biruni Kindergarten students about the pharmacist profession and to improve the knowledge of Al Biruni Kindergarten teachers on first aid measures to prevent fatal accidents. The methods used included introducing the pharmacist profession through an audiovisual presentation and simple pharmaceutical job simulations conducted by the children, as well as providing first aid seminar to teachers and evaluating their knowledge before and after the session. Questionnaire result showed an increase in teachers' knowledge from 78.12% to 93.75% in the "excellent" category after the session. Feedback from the event indicated participants satisfaction level of 98.4%. In conclusion, this community service program was conducted successfully and provided significant benefits, particularly in introducing the pharmacist profession to children and improving teachers' ability to perform first aid at Al Biruni Kindergarten.
