Abstract

Chronic malnutrition leading to stunting remains a significant challenge in Indonesia. Supplemental feeding (PMT) based on cow's milk and moringa leaves holds potential to address this issue. This community service aimed to enhance community knowledge and skills in producing PMT from cow's milk and moringa leaves, which are rich in nutrients. The implementation methods included preparation, community socialization, theoretical and practical training, and follow-up monitoring and evaluation. The results of the community service showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge and skills regarding nutrition and PMT production. Participants were able to produce various PMT products such as yogurt, biscuits, sempol, and nuggets, and demonstrated creative ideas in developing new product variations.

Abstract

The breastfeeding rate in Indonesia is 15.3%. Exclusive breastfeeding coverage in Central Sulawesi in 2021 was 53.5% and in Poso Regency was 51.1%. Exclusive breastfeeding coverage in Pinedapa Village, Poso Coastal District in 2022 was 57%. One of the causes of low breastfeeding rates in Indonesia is the lack of knowledge among pregnant women, families, and the community about the importance of breastfeeding. The most common problem experienced by breastfeeding mothers is sore nipples. This condition usually occurs due to incorrect baby positioning during breastfeeding or incorrect breastfeeding techniques. The purpose of this activity was to improve the knowledge and skills of pregnant women and health cadres on the correct breastfeeding techniques to meet the nutritional needs of infants and thus prevent stunting. The methods used in this community service activity were lectures, discussions, and demonstrations. The results obtained from this activity were that the knowledge of pregnant women and posyandu cadres after the counseling increased to good (100%). The skills of pregnant women and cadres after the training increased from unskilled (0%) to skilled (100%).

Abstract

Stunting is a condition in infants and young children where height or length is significantly below what is considered normal for their age. Stunting in early childhood can lead to difficulties in achieving physical and cognitive development in the future. Exclusive breastfeeding is one of the effective strategies to reduce the prevalence of stunting. This community service activity aimed to enhance the knowledge and skills of 30 posyandu cadres on exclusive breastfeeding. The results showed an improvement in the cadres' understanding of the material delivered, with the average knowledge score increasing from 59.16 before the training to 75.5 afterward. Similarly, the average skill score also increased from 38.66 before the practice to 69.1 after the practice session.

Abstract

A state of despair and helplessness often occurs in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit, impacting their psychological and spiritual well-being, especially in patients with decreased consciousness and those who are intubated. Several studies have highlighted the lack of knowledge among nurses in providing spiritual care to critically ill, intubated, and incapacitated patients. Nurses have reported difficulties in implementing spiritual care nursing and a lack of available information. The aim of this community service activity was to provide nurses with an understanding of spiritual care in nursing care for critically ill patients in order to optimize their knowledge, role, and abilities in caring for these patients. The community service activity was conducted using mentoring, discussion, question-and-answer sessions, and demonstrations facilitated by both the facilitators and participants, followed by monitoring and evaluation after the activity. The results of the community service activity showed a 33% increase in nurses' knowledge (from 62% to 95%) about meeting the spiritual needs of critically ill patients.

Abstract

SuleMu is a soy milk product produced by KL LazisMu SMP Muhammadiyah 7 (SMP MUTU) Colomadu, Karanganyar Regency, Central Java Province. Although SuleMu packaging has a label, it lacks nutritional information. Additionally, its marketing strategy is still traditional. Therefore, this community service aims to add nutritional information to SuleMu packaging and create a digital marketing platform. The implementation of this program began with coordination, nutritional analysis, packaging label redesign, digital marketing training, the creation of a SuleMu digital marketing platform, and evaluation. The results of the nutritional analysis of SuleMU per 100g were: protein (3.4g), fat (3.3g), sugar (5.1g), crude fiber (2.6g), and calcium (40mg). This data has been added to the new SuleMu label. For digital marketing training, the average pre-test scores for WhatsApp Business and Instagram materials were 72.57 and 73.14, respectively, while the average post-test scores were 87.43 and 81.43. SuleMu also now has digital marketing accounts on Instagram and WhatsApp Business.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) have been recognized as crucial components and dynamic driving forces for various economies. The Indonesian government has paid serious attention to the MSME sector. One of the strategies for developing MSMEs to upgrade is through increased access to financing. However, the serious attention from the Indonesian government has not been maximized by MSMEs because it is not balanced with the ability related to financial management and taxation. Creative Space is an MSME Community, most of whose members are start-up companies that still lack knowledge of finance and taxation. The purpose of this community service is to provide financial education and tax obligations for Creative Space members. The method used is by providing guidance in preparing financial statements and tax reports. The results of the implementation of this financial and tax education are that all members of Creative Space can prepare financial statements and report the tax obligations that must be fulfilled by MSMEs.
