Abstract

Dental and oral health issues among the elderly are a significant concern as they greatly impact quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a community service program in improving knowledge and awareness of dental and oral health among the elderly in Dieng Village, Klojen District, Malang City. The program was conducted by the Faculty of Dentistry, Brawijaya University (FKG UB). The methods used included an initial survey, health education, dental examination and treatment, as well as evaluation using pre- and post-tests. A total of 49 elderly individuals participated in the program, with 71% being female. Analysis results showed a significant increase in knowledge scores from the pre-test (M=10.98, SD=4.29) to the post-test (M=14.12, SD=5.19) with a p-value of 0.000. There was a significant difference based on gender, where females showed better results in the pre-test (M=11.97) and post-test (M=15.23) compared to males. Age was not found to have a significant influence on learning outcomes. The program successfully increased dental care awareness, with 80% of participants reporting improved tooth-brushing habits and a 30% reduction in active caries cases. These results indicate that the community service program effectively enhances knowledge and awareness of dental and oral health among the elderly.

Abstract

Entering puberty, adolescents begin to feel sexual urges and an increase in curiosity about sexuality. This curiosity triggered adolescents to seek information and even try to engage in risky sexual behavior. Risky sexual behavior carried out by adolescents will have an impact. The purpose of this community service is to provide audiovisual-based reproductive health education to prevent risky sexual behavior in adolescents. The implementation of the education program in this series of community service was carried out on November 11-24, 2023, with 260 college students of the Faculty of Vocational Studies, Brawijaya University. Participants were divided into two groups, namely the intervention group (health education using audio-visual media) consist 130 college students and the control group (health education using leaflet) consist 130 college students. Evaluation was carried out through a questionnaire to measure parent-adolescent communication before and after the education program. The results showed that before and after being educated, the majority of adolescents had sufficient communication with their parents. There was an effect of reproductive health education on parent-adolescent communication in the intervention group as evidenced by the p-value of 0.041. Meanwhile, in the control group, there was no significant influence between reproductive health education and parent-adolescent communication and no significant difference was found between parent-adolescent communication in the intervention group and the control group. It suggests that while the intervention had a positive internal impact, it was not strong enough to produce a significant difference when compared to the control group.

Abstract

Background:  Hypertension is one of the most common non-communicable diseases found in the community and often goes unnoticed until it causes serious complications. In Baureno Village, although health services are available, the community remains less concerned about early detection and proper management of hypertension. This condition indicates the need for an educational and mentoring platform, namely HIPERCARE (Hypertension Prevention, Management, Care, and Education). This activity aims to determine the effectiveness of health education and butterfly pea flower tea consumption in reducing blood pressure and improving the knowledge of individuals with hypertension. This community service programme was carried out in three stages. The first stage was the pre-activity phase, consisting of observation and an initial survey. The second stage was the implementation phase, which included health screening, counselling, demonstrations, and the implementation of the HIPERCARE platform integrated with a seven-day butterfly pea flower tea consumption programme as a non-pharmacological intervention. The third stage was the evaluation phase, conducted through blood pressure measurement and a pre–post knowledge test. The activities were conducted from 4–13 March 2025 in Baureno Village, Baureno District, Bojonegoro Regency, involving 95 participants with hypertension. The programme demonstrated a decrease in the proportion of participants with severe hypertension and an improvement in the proportion of those achieving a good level of knowledge. The HIPERCARE programme had a positive impact on increasing awareness and reducing blood pressure among individuals with hypertension. This initiative is expected to be applied in other communities or villages as a practical and sustainable promotive and preventive strategy.
