Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that remains a public health challenge in Indonesia. Based on the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey, the national prevalence of stunting reached 21.5%, still above the national target of 14%. Preventing stunting requires a comprehensive approach through improving family nutrition literacy and optimizing the use of locally available food. This community service activity aims to analyze the effectiveness of family empowerment-based interventions in increasing knowledge about stunting prevention through education on the use of local Minahasa food. The activity used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test–post-test approach. A total of 30 participants were purposively selected from the working area of the Ranomuut Community Health Center, Manado City. The intervention included participatory education, demonstrations of local food processing, and assistance for families at risk of stunting. Knowledge was measured using questionnaires before and after the intervention and analyzed using a paired sample t-test. The results show that the mean knowledge score increased significantly from 71.67 ± 5.31 to 85.00 ± 5.72 (p < 0.001). The mean difference of 13.33 points with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.87) indicates a strong practical impact of the intervention. Participants showed an increased understanding of stunting prevention and the ability to utilize local foods such as corn, sweet potatoes, moringa leaves, gedi leaves, and seafood as sources of nutrition for complementary feeding and toddler food. The conclusion is that empowerment-based interventions through education, demonstrations, and family assistance can increase families' knowledge about stunting prevention through the use of local Minahasa food ingredients. This approach has the potential to be replicated as a contextual and sustainable promotive-preventive strategy in supporting the acceleration of stunting reduction at the community level.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal health problems are among the most common health issues affecting communities, particularly in rural areas, due to heavy physical labor, non-ergonomic working postures, and limited access to health education. These conditions can reduce productivity, impair quality of life, and increase the risk of disability if preventive measures are not implemented early. Community-based health promotion programs that combine educational approaches with hands-on practice represent an effective strategy to enhance community knowledge and skills in preventing musculoskeletal problems. Furthermore, cross-national collaboration in community service initiatives can enrich learning methods and broaden perspectives in delivering health education. This community service program aimed to provide health promotion to prevent musculoskeletal health problems in rural areas by involving students from Indonesia and Thailand. The program employed a pre- and post-intervention design to evaluate improvements in knowledge and skills among 20 participants in a rural community. The results demonstrated increased competency following student-led simulations, with correct responses rising to 95% in injury prevention, 90% in stretching and muscle strengthening, and 90% in the ability to identify populations vulnerable to musculoskeletal problems. Specifically, participants’ ability to perform back-strengthening exercises improved to a mean score of 4.10±1.02, indicating that direct demonstration of techniques had a significant impact. Participants also showed the highest level of confidence when performing upper-arm stretching exercises, with a mean score of 4.65±0.87, reflecting strong understanding among the participants. Another key finding revealed that video was the most preferred learning method, chosen by 55% of participants. The use of this learning medium has considerable potential to support musculoskeletal health promotion in rural communities. Overall, the program achieved its intended objectives and provides a replicable model for similar health promotion initiatives in other rural areas. These findings may inform future health promotion strategies by emphasizing the use of multimedia and experiential learning approaches in delivering education and enhancing skills within musculoskeletal health programs.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases whose prevalence continues to increase and remains a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The management of hypertension does not rely solely on pharmacological therapy but also requires non-pharmacological interventions, such as adopting a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables and low in salt. However, public knowledge regarding types of foods that effectively help lower blood pressure remains limited, particularly in rural areas. This community service program (PKM) aimed to provide education on healthy foods that can reduce blood pressure as a form of non-pharmacological therapy for patients with hypertension in the community. The activity employed the Preparation, Action, Reflection, and Evaluation (PARE) approach and was conducted in Melinggih Village, Gianyar Regency, Bali Province, involving 29 participants with hypertension. The program began with a pre-test, followed by health education sessions supported by visual educational media, consultations, discussions, and question-and-answer sessions, and concluded with a post-test evaluation. The results showed that the proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 34.5% before the intervention to 100% after the implementation of the program. The Wilcoxon test results indicated Z = -4.300; p = 0.001, demonstrating a statistically significant difference in participants’ knowledge levels before and after the activity. The success of the program was supported by lecture methods, consultations, and interactive discussions conducted bilingually (Indonesian and Balinese), as well as the use of colorful leaflets illustrating vegetables and fruits beneficial in lowering blood pressure. Thus, this community-based educational intervention proved effective in improving community knowledge and awareness regarding healthy food choices for hypertension management.

Abstract

Gagal ginjal kronik (GGK) stadium akhir merupakan kondisi kronis progresif yang memerlukan terapi pengganti ginjal jangka panjang dan menimbulkan beban multidimensional bagi pasien serta keluarga. Selain keluhan fisik, pasien sering mengalami tekanan psikologis, keterbatasan sosial, dan penurunan kualitas hidup. Namun, edukasi terstruktur mengenai perawatan paliatif dan perawatan jangka panjang masih terbatas, sementara pelayanan kesehatan cenderung berfokus pada aspek teknis dan kuratif hemodialisis. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan pasien dan keluarga mengenai GGK stadium akhir, perawatan paliatif, perawatan jangka panjang, serta strategi pengelolaan kecemasan melalui program edukasi terintegrasi. Kegiatan diikuti oleh 30 peserta yang terdiri dari pasien GGK stadium akhir dan anggota keluarga pendamping dengan latar belakang sosial dan pendidikan yang beragam. Sebagian besar peserta belum pernah memperoleh edukasi terstruktur mengenai asuhan holistik sebelumnya. Intervensi dilakukan melalui penyuluhan kesehatan, diskusi interaktif, serta pemberian media edukasi berupa leaflet dan materi presentasi. Pelaksanaan program menggunakan pendekatan manajemen POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, dan Controlling). Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan kuesioner pretest dan posttest yang mencakup empat aspek pengetahuan. Terjadi peningkatan pada seluruh aspek yang dinilai. Pemahaman tentang GGK stadium akhir meningkat dari 80% menjadi 92%. Pemahaman perawatan paliatif meningkat dari 82% menjadi 94%, perawatan jangka panjang dari 84% menjadi 93%, dan strategi pengelolaan kecemasan dari 85% menjadi 95%. Rata-rata skor keseluruhan meningkat dari 83% pada pretest menjadi 93% pada posttest. Program edukasi integrasi perawatan paliatif dan perawatan jangka panjang efektif dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan pasien dan keluarga mengenai asuhan holistik GGK stadium akhir. Program ini berpotensi memperkuat kesiapan pasien dan keluarga dalam menghadapi kondisi kronis secara berkelanjutan.
