Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease and one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Indonesia. A community-based hypertension education and screening program was implemented in Penyandingan Village, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, South Sumatra, as an effort to support the early detection of non-communicable disease risk factors. The program included health education on hypertension and health screening through blood pressure measurement and random blood glucose (RBG) testing involving more than 100 participants. The screening results showed that approximately 60% of participants had blood pressure above the normal range, with some classified as having severe hypertension, while several participants also exhibited elevated random blood glucose levels. These findings indicate that hypertension and other non-communicable disease risk factors remain prevalent in the community and highlight the importance of community-based screening for early detection. This program is expected to serve as an initial step toward improving healthcare utilization through follow-up examinations, continuous health education, and strengthened involvement of community health volunteers in hypertension prevention and control.

Abstract

A Photovoice Analysis of Community Voices Around PLTU X on Mining Activities: A Basic AMDAL Training by Anak Padi Foundation, Lahat Regency. Coal-fired Steam Power Plants (PLTU) are one of the main sources of energy in Indonesia, but they are also significant contributors to environmental pollution and public health impacts. In Lahat Regency, coal mining areas as one of the fuels for PLTU are also spread around the PLTU, which adds to the impacts on health and the environment. This study aims to determine the voices or views of participants in the basic AMDAL (Environmental Impact Analysis) training who live around the PLTU area, especially residents of Z Village, regarding coal mining activities which are the main source of energy for the PLTU. The method used in this study is photovoice which involves participants to take photos that reflect their experiences and perspectives on environmental issues that are affected. The participants in this training have an age range of 18-75 years, totaling 27 people. There are 3 core stages of the photovoice process: making photos, collective interpretation and the dissemination process of the photo results (dissemination). The results show that most participants through photovoice expressed that the existence of mining activities and PLTUs has a negative impact on environmental quality, such as air pollution, lots of dust in residents' homes due to coal transportation activities, decreased farmer harvest production, and health problems to river pollution. This finding emphasizes the importance of involving residents in participatory environmental management and monitoring.This study recommends the need for more sustainable environmental evaluations, as well as strengthening community capacity in voicing the right to a healthy environment.

Abstract

Early detection of non-communicable disease risk factors through health education and screening among campus cleaning staff in Makassar. Non-communicable diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide and in Indonesia, yet cleaning staff as support workers in higher education institutions are rarely targeted by early detection programmes. This community service activity aimed to detect non-communicable disease risk factors early and to deliver health education to cleaning staff at the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Muslim Indonesia, Makassar. Conducted on 29 August 2025 using a participatory approach, it comprised three integrated stages: group health education, health screening, and individual counselling. Screening covered body weight, height, waist circumference, blood pressure, random blood glucose, and total cholesterol. All cleaning staff on duty were enrolled by total sampling, and the data were analysed descriptively. Of the 36 participants, 32 (88.9%) were women, with a mean age of 42.6 ± 11.9 years, and 23 (63.9%) had completed junior secondary education or less. Obesity was found in 18 participants (50.0%) and overweight in 8 (22.2%). Central obesity was identified in 23 participants (63.9%), comprising 21 of 32 women (65.6%) and 2 of 4 men (50.0%). Suboptimal blood pressure was found in 25 participants (69.4%), of whom 16 (44.4%) met the criteria for hypertension. Five participants (13.9%) were prediabetic and 3 (8.3%) diabetic, while 4 (11.1%) had borderline total cholesterol. All participants with abnormal results received counselling and referral to primary health care. These findings confirm a high burden of non-communicable disease risk factors among cleaning staff, particularly women.

Abstract

Strategic Partnership for Public Health: Supporting Malaria Elimination in South Sumatra. Background: South Sumatra has significant potential for malaria elimination but faces challenges, including diverse ecosystems and socioeconomic factors. Strategic collaborations and a comprehensive, community-based approach are essential for successful intervention and long-term solutions. Purpose: This activity aims to increase community awareness and knowledge about malaria and its prevention; strengthen local capacity in early detection, treatment, and prevention of malaria; encourage active community involvement in vector control and surveillance efforts; and develop evidence-based policy recommendations for local governments. Method: The approach includes data analysis to create evidence-based treatments for successful malaria management, community focus groups to gauge attitudes toward the disease, stakeholder brainstorming sessions for vector control tactics, and GIS training seminars. Results: A post-implementation assessment showing a decline in cases suggests that the introduction of the malaria mobile health application has greatly raised community awareness and understanding about malaria, including its symptoms, risks, and preventative techniques. Furthermore, by enabling health professionals and policymakers to pinpoint high-risk regions, the GIS has improved efforts to prevent by facilitating data-driven intervention prioritization and more effective resource allocation.

Abstract

Teacher, Parent, and Community Health Volunteer Empowerment for Monitoring the Nutritional Status of School-Aged Children in Kertapati District. Nutritional problems among school-aged children remain a major public health challenge in Indonesia, including Kertapati District, Palembang. Limited nutrition literacy, inadequate anthropometric skills among teachers, parents, and community health volunteers (Posyandu cadres), and the lack of an integrated monitoring system contribute to delayed identification and management of nutritional problems. This community service program aimed to strengthen stakeholders' capacity and establish a sustainable school-based nutritional monitoring system. A participatory, community-based approach was implemented at SDN 195 Kertapati District. The intervention included training on nutrition and standardized anthropometric measurements, family nutrition education, and mentoring for the implementation of an integrated monitoring system. Innovations introduced were the Child Nutrition Card (Kartu Gizi Anak/KGA) as a communication tool linking teachers, parents, and Posyandu cadres, a Teacher's Pocket Guide, and digital data management using Google Sheets. Program effectiveness was evaluated using a pre-test and post-test design. The program significantly improved participants' knowledge and skills. Teachers' median test scores increased from 8.5 to 10, while parents also demonstrated meaningful improvements in nutrition knowledge. Teachers and Posyandu cadres gained competency in standardized anthropometric measurements and WHO growth chart interpretation. In addition, the School Nutrition Monitoring Team was established, and routine use of the Child Nutrition Card strengthened communication and nutritional monitoring. This multisectoral empowerment model effectively established an accurate, structured, and sustainable nutritional monitoring system for school-aged children. The model is recommended for replication in other schools and integration into local health policies.

Abstract

Balanced Nutrition Counseling on Dietary Patterns among Adolescent Athletes at Pertukaran Pemuda antar Provinsi (PPAP) dan Sentra Pembinaan Olahragawan Berbakat Nasional (SPOBNAS), Jakabaring Athlete Dormitory, Palembang. Adolescent athletes have high energy and nutrient requirements because they are in a period of growth while also engaging in moderate- to high-intensity physical training. However, irregular eating patterns and low nutrition knowledge remain common problems among athletes living in training dormitories. This activity aimed to assess nutrient adequacy levels and provide balanced nutrition counseling for adolescent athletes at the Jakabaring Athlete Dormitory, Palembang. The methods included anthropometric measurements, dietary intake assessment using a 24-hour food recall, analysis of nutrient adequacy levels, and nutrition counseling. The subjects consisted of 21 adolescent athletes from various sports disciplines. The results showed that most athletes experienced severe deficits in energy intake (81%), protein (81%), fat (33.3%), and carbohydrates (90.5%). These conditions were influenced by habits of skipping meals, low consumption of snacks, and limited awareness of the importance of balanced nutrition. Nutrition counseling emphasized the implementation of balanced dietary patterns, meal timing management, utilization of available foods in the dormitory, selection of healthier snacks, and appropriate fluid intake management. This activity demonstrates that sports nutrition counseling plays an important role in improving athletes’ knowledge and awareness of meeting nutritional requirements, thereby supporting the health, fitness, and performance of adolescent athletes.

Abstract

Community empowerment is a strategic step to improve quality of life by increasing individual and community capacity, particularly in the health sector. Integrated service post (Pos Pelayanan Terpadu / Posyandu) cadres at the Taman Bacaan Community Health Center in Palembang City face challenges in recognizing wound types, prioritizing initial treatment, performing proper wound cleansing techniques, applying infection prevention principles, and determining the appropriate time to refer patients to health facilities. This situation highlights the need for educational interventions and community-based practical training to improve the capacity of cadres to provide safe and appropriate first aid. The goal of this integrated health post (Posyandu) cadre empowerment program is to improve their capacity in treating minor injuries and preventing infections in the community. The activity was conducted on October 25, 2025, with 54 cadres participating. Pre-tests and post-tests served as the evaluation instruments. The results were analyzed using descriptive analysis of the cadres' demographics and an analysis of their knowledge (based on pre-test and post-test scores). The analysis indicates a consistent increase in knowledge among all participants. The average pre-test score was 5.55, while the average post-test score was 8.11. This represents an increase of 2.56 points—or 46.1%—from the baseline, demonstrating that knowledge improved following the training. These findings are reinforced by the positive delta scores observed across all participants, confirming that the training had a consistent impact on cadres regardless of their educational background, age, or length of experience.

Abstract

Socio-emotional development education for early childhood educators to support the mental health of young children. The socio-emotional development of young children is a crucial foundation for mental health and psychosocial adaptation. The early childhood education (PAUD) environment plays a strategic role in supporting this development through teacher-child interactions; however, teachers’ limited understanding of socio-emotional development remains a challenge in implementing learning approaches that support children’s mental health. This activity aims to enhance early childhood education teachers’ knowledge of children’s socioemotional development through educational materials such as videos, brochures, and interactive discussions. Participants consisted of 42 early childhood education teachers in Palembang City who took pre- and post-tests. The results showed an increase in knowledge from an average of 71.29 to 80.55, with a significant difference (t = 3.55; p = 0.001). Participant feedback also indicated improved understanding of the importance of children’s socio-emotional development, as well as a need for more practical follow-up training. These findings suggest that social-emotional education for early childhood education teachers has the potential to serve as a strategy in supporting the promotion of mental health in young children.

Abstract

Chronic diseases are health problems that require holistic and long-term management. The success of therapy is influenced by various factors, including the patient's clinical condition, family support, socioeconomic status, health behaviors, and the condition of caregivers. Family empowerment through a home visit program is considered one of the primary healthcare strategies that enables a more comprehensive identification of factors affecting chronic disease management. This community service activity aimed to describe the biopsychosocial factors influencing the successful management of chronic diseases through home visits and community-based health assistance. The program was conducted through home visits to Prolanis patients under the care of Seno Medika Clinic Bandung who attended routine follow-up visits less than three times a year (<3 visits/year) during February–March 2026. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, home environment observations, simple physical examinations, and discussions with family members. The findings were analyzed narratively based on clinical, social, health behavior, and family dynamics aspects. The results showed that chronic disease management was influenced by family dynamics and the role of caregivers, differences in individual self-management abilities, psychological conditions, and patients' knowledge of their disease. At the end of each visit, educational sessions were provided to patients, family members, and caregivers based on the identified problems. Home visits were able to identify various health determinants that were not detected through facility-based healthcare services. A family-centered approach and caregiver empowerment are essential components of chronic disease management to improve patients' quality of life and prevent further deterioration in the health of other family members.
