Abstract

WHO (World Health Organization) classifies the elderly as individuals aged 60 years and over in many developing countries. At this time, humans begin to experience a decline in body organ function because cells experience aging. Although cells become larger and older, they lose the ability to divide and reproduce normally. Not only a decline in physical and cellular function, a decline in cognitive function also occurs in the elderly. Maintaining cognitive function in the elderly (parents) is very important for their well-being. Cognitive activities carried out routinely are thought to be able to maintain excellent cognitive function in the elderly. Community Service with the theme of supporting the cognitive function of the elderly with brain gym exercises has been carried out in Ringinsari Village, Kandat District, Kediri Regency. On August 7, 2024, at 08.00 WIB. Located at the Elderly Posyandu, Ringinsari Village, Kandat District, Kediri Regency. The purpose of this community service activity is to improve cognitive function in the elderly, especially in Ringinsari Village, by practicing Brain Gym. The cognitive function in question is to maintain the balance of brain activity, prevent dementia, and improve memory in the elderly. Brain Gym involves dynamic body movements, which stimulate all parts of the brain to work together. This movement helps optimize blood and oxygen flow to the brain. Brain gym movements can help improve memory function and recall abilities. Brain gym helps improve focus and concentration in the elderly. The implementation of this activity goes through several stages, first submitting a request to the PPK, Bangkesbangpol to the village. In the process of implementing Brain Gym exercises, 41 elderly people attended.

Abstract

Stunting not only affects a child's physical condition but also their cognitive development and long-term performance due to suboptimal brain development. The most crucial intervention in addressing stunting occurs during the first 1,000 days of life (HPK). Providing adequate food intake and good nutrition doesn't have to be expensive. One effort that can be made is by providing a PMT (Food Supplement) made from snakehead fish. Snakehead fish is good for consumption by anyone, including toddlers and pregnant women. 100 grams of snakehead fish contains 80 calories and various beneficial nutrients needed by the body. In addition to these nutrients, snakehead fish also contains carbohydrates, iron, copper, vitamin B2, and omega-3 fatty acids. The nutrient-rich content of snakehead fish can be an alternative to high-calorie PMT ingredients. Based on the results of an initial survey conducted by the proposal team, it turns out that many male and female students at Zainul Hasan Genggong Islamic Boarding School still lack a good understanding of stunting and how to prepare anti-stunting supplementary foods. Based on these findings, the proposal team plans to conduct community service activities. The methods used in this community service activity were counseling on stunting and training in making anti-stunting PMT from snakehead fish. The results of the activity showed an 85% increase in knowledge after the counseling. In addition, the training successfully improved the skills of male and female students in processing snakehead fish into various simple and nutritious PMT preparations. The enthusiasm of the participants was evident from their active participation in discussions and direct involvement in the PMT preparation practice. Conclusion: Education on stunting combined with training in making PMT from snakehead fish has proven effective in increasing the knowledge and skills of students. The high nutritional content of snakehead fish makes it a potential alternative to support stunting prevention in the community.

Abstract

Stunting remains an unresolved health problem in Indonesia. The most appropriate period to meet a child's nutritional needs is during the First 1000 Days of Life (1000 HPK), from conception until the child is two years old. Initial surveys of female students at Pondok Pesantren Al Fitrah As Salafiyah indicated a low understanding of preparation for the 1000 HPK, necessitating health education. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge and role of students regarding the 1000 HPK and balanced nutrition for preparation and during a healthy pregnancy. The methods used include counseling on stunting and the 1000 HPK, training in the form of balanced nutrition education, and demonstrations of preparing nutritious menus. Evaluation was conducted through pre-test and post-test to measure the increase in knowledge, as well as observation of the students' participation in discussions and practices. The results show a significant increase in knowledge of 81.1% based on the comparison of pre-test and post-test scores. Furthermore, the students showed high enthusiasm, reflected in their active participation in discussions and direct practice. In conclusion, the counseling and training were effective in increasing students' knowledge about the 1000 HPK and stunting prevention. The active involvement of pesantren adolescents shows great potential as health education agents. It is recommended that similar activities be carried out regularly and integrated into pesantren programs to strengthen the community's role in stunting prevention.

Abstract

Immigrants are a vulnerable population with substantial barriers to accessing health information and medical services, including early detection of chronic diseases such as cancer. Low health literacy among immigrants may be caused by linguistic and cultural differences, uncertain legal status, and financial limitations. These conditions lead to delayed diagnosis and increased risk of cancer-related complications. Early detection through screening has been proven effective in reducing cancer mortality. For instance, colorectal cancer screening may reduce mortality risk by 35%, while mammography can decrease breast cancer mortality by 41%. However, screening coverage among immigrant populations remains low. Studies suggest that sociocultural barriers, limited knowledge, and lack of physician recommendations contribute to poor participation in cancer screening programs. This community service activity aimed to increase immigrants' knowledge of early cancer screening and health education using an interactive and participatory community-based counseling approach. A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed. The program involved 14 immigrants residing in temporary shelters under the coordination of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Participants attended a counseling session accompanied by pre- and post-intervention knowledge assessments. Results showed a 37.3% improvement in mean knowledge scores, and the paired t-test produced p = 0.0000 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores. These findings demonstrate that the counseling intervention effectively improved participants’ understanding of cancer and the importance of early detection. The activity also highlights the importance of cross-sector collaboration, especially with IOM, in developing sustainable health promotion and disease prevention programs for immigrant communities.

Abstract

Migrants represent a highly vulnerable population due to their limited access to health information, healthcare services, and emergency response mechanisms. These vulnerabilities are exacerbated by language barriers, cultural differences, socioeconomic constraints, and the unpredictability of their living environments in host countries. The absence of knowledge and basic skills in handling injuries significantly increases their risk of complications, disability, and preventable mortality. This community-engagement program aimed to strengthen the emergency preparedness of migrants under the coordination of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) by providing culturally adapted education on injury prevention and first aid. A total of 20 migrants participated in an interactive session consisting of counseling, demonstrations, and hands-on skill practice. Knowledge acquisition was assessed using pre-test and post-test questionnaires containing ten multiple-choice items. The results revealed a 38.8% improvement in average knowledge scores (pre-test: 45.2; post-test: 74.0), with a paired t-test showing statistical significance (p = 0.0000, p < 0.05). Participants also demonstrated enthusiasm and high engagement during the practical sessions. These findings indicate that community-based, participatory education is effective for increasing first-aid competence among vulnerable migrant groups. This initiative can serve as a replicable model for migrant shelters and humanitarian organizations seeking to strengthen public health resilience.

Abstract

Social stigma still attached to the families of leprosy patients in Sumber Glagah Hamlet, Pacet, Mojokerto, causes limited access to education, employment, and social interaction. This condition has led to a decrease in family income, even though leprosy is curable. To overcome this, community empowerment was carried out through cultivation training and the production of herbal drink powder as an effort to improve the economy and quality of life. The activity was conducted in Sumber Glagah Hamlet, Pacet District, Mojokerto. The methods used were counseling and training on the archipelago herbal drink (Serbat Nusantara) and the cultivation of herbal ginger plants. The total number of participants was 23 leprosy patient family members. The increase in participant knowledge was measured by giving a pre-test before the activity and a post-test after the training. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge, reaching a "Good" category score of 86.95%. Participants were very enthusiastic, demonstrated by their activeness during the discussion and question-and-answer session. This activity concludes that skill-based training, such as making herbal drink powder, can significantly increase the knowledge and morale of leprosy survivor families in economic empowerment efforts. It is suggested that similar programs be carried out sustainably and collaboratively to reduce stigma and strengthen local economic independence.

Abstract

Indonesia still ranks second as the country with the most tuberculosis (TB) cases in the world. The increasing number of pulmonary TB patients in Indonesia is caused by unhealthy behaviors, such as families still using the same eating or drinking utensils, lack of lighting in the house, or patients spitting carelessly. One strategy is to find all TB cases and treat them until cured, to stop TB transmission. TB control efforts require the involvement of all sectors, including non-health. The behavior of caregivers in orphanages plays a very important role in reducing the risk of pulmonary TB transmission in children. On the other hand, orphanage residents, consisting of children and adolescents, often lack sufficient access or information about TB prevention and treatment. Based on this, this community service activity was conducted in the form of socialization about tuberculosis, including introduction, effective treatment, and side effects. The method used was counseling on TB disease, effective tuberculosis treatment, and how to avoid drug side effects. The number of participants was 16 people. The results showed a good increase in knowledge of 81.25%. Participants were very enthusiastic during the question and answer discussion session. Conclusion: The counseling activity successfully increased participants' knowledge and showed high enthusiasm, indicating that targeted education is very important in raising awareness about TB prevention and treatment.
