Abstract

The importance of physical activity for health is a major concern in efforts to improve the quality of life of the community, including among adolescents. However, students' level of awareness and understanding regarding the benefits of physical activity still needs to be improved. This community service activity aims to provide health training to high school students to enhance their understanding of the importance of physical activity. The method used is health training, which includes education, interactive discussions, and pre- and post-tests to assess changes in students' knowledge levels. Evaluation results showed a significant increase in students' understanding after participating in the training, with the percentage of students possessing good knowledge about physical activity rising from 40% to 52%. This indicates that the health training had a positive impact on increasing students' awareness and understanding of the importance of physical activity. Therefore, such training can be an effective strategy to instill healthy lifestyle habits from an early age, under the supervision of the school’s adolescent health team

Abstract

Improving the quality of telecommunications networks has the potential to increase public Internet access. In addition to facilitating human work, advances in information technology can produce social difficulties and have negative impacts. The Kulon Progo Community Information Group (KIM) is frequently faced with daily challenges connected to the usage of electronic gadgets, social media, digital fraud, and ambigous information dilemmas. The necessity for socialization in order to raise awareness and create creativity in order to strengthen local village potential through features of information disclosure and digital literacy is being addressed through community service collaboration between KIM and institutions. The implementation of this activity intends to assist in the resolution of numerous problems related to the dynamics of information technology use as well as enhance public awareness. The evaluation results show that 90% of respondents stated that the training activity increased their knowledge. Dissemination of digital library exploration with search engines and wise social media is performed in the form of lectures, discussions, and practice. Practical knowledge gained from the results of activities can be utilized by the community to facilitate accurate searches for digital information and use social media to support life activities

Abstract

In the modern era, stunting is still one of the issues that need attention in the health sector in Indonesia. The stunting rate in Indonesia from 2022 to 2023 is still at the same figure, which is around 21%. From SKI data, it is also known that the prevalence of stunting in the DIY region increased from 2022, namely 16.4% to 18% in 2023. In the process of child growth and development, mothers have a fairly important role. The aim of this activity is to increase public awareness, especially pregnant women and mothers of toddlers, about the importance of preventing stunting to improve the health quality of future generations. Through counseling and demonstrations, the public is given an understanding of cheap, nutritious, and easily available local foods, and several supplements that are good for fulfilling the micronutrients of pregnant women. Evaluation through questionnaires showed an increase in participant understanding, where the understanding score increased from 82.36 to 90.28. This shows that this activity is effective in increasing public knowledge and health cadres in Dukuh Ponggok, Sidomulyo Village, Bambanglipuro District. This counseling is expected to have a positive impact in reducing stunting rates through increasing awareness and implementing healthy eating patterns in families

Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a condition in which the kidneys are damaged and unable to filter blood effectively. One of the common treatment options for managing CKD is hemodialysis. However, long-term hemodialysis can lead to a decreased quality of life, with fatigue being a frequently reported complaint among patients. To address this fatigue, complementary therapies such as foot massage and aromatherapy can be administered. This study aims to examine the effect of a combination of foot massage and aromatherapy on reducing fatigue levels in patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis. The study employed a case study design using the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) as the measurement instrument. The intervention was conducted over 8 days, with each session lasting 15 minutes, and took place during hemodialysis either in the hospital or at home with support from family members. Evaluations were conducted on days 1, 5, and 8. The results showed a reduction in fatigue levels, with an initial score of 11 (severe category), increasing to 15 (still severe) on day 5, and 20 (moderate category) on day 8. These findings indicate that the combination of foot massage and aromatherapy can effectively reduce fatigue in patients undergoing hemodialysis. This intervention may be considered by nurses as a non-pharmacological approach to enhance patient comfort

Abstract

This training aimed to improve the quality of learning in Junior High Schools (Sekolah Menengah Pertama, SMP) in Pulau Panjang Timur through active learning method training for teachers. The quality of education in remote areas such as Pulau Panjang Timur often faces challenges such as limited access to innovative teaching methods and low student engagement in the learning process. Therefore, training in active learning methods serves as a solution to enhance student participation, improve understanding of subject matter, and strengthen teachers' teaching skills. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method involving observations and in-depth interviews with teachers and students who participated in the training. The results show that the active learning method training successfully improved teacher competence. Prior to the training, the teachers’ understanding of digital media was only at 58% (categorized as "adequate"). However, after conducting intensive training and mentoring for three days, the post-training evaluation revealed a significant improvement, reaching 84% (categorized as "good"). Trained teachers were also able to manage classrooms more effectively and implement more creative techniques, supporting a more enjoyable and interactive learning environment. However, the study also identified challenges, particularly the lack of facilities and infrastructure, which affects the full implementation of active methods. Therefore, further support from the government and related stakeholders is needed to improve educational facilities and resources in the region. This research provides a positive contribution to the development of more inclusive and relevant teaching methods for the Pulau Panjang Timur area

Abstract

'Aisyiyah's group empowerment programme in Kedungtuban Sub-district, Blora Regency, was motivated by the high number of fires and the low disaster literacy of the community, especially women. This research aims to increase the community's capacity in fire prevention and management through an educative and participatory approach. The method used was a combination of participatory education and action research, which included socialisation, training, simulation and evaluation. The results of the activities showed a significant increase in participants‘ knowledge, with 85.7% of respondents achieving a post-test score above 130 out of 150. Findings also showed that factors such as age, educational background and intensity of engagement influenced participants’ understanding. The programme not only improved technical preparedness, but also built collective awareness through a community-based approach. Innovations such as the use of digital media and real condition-based simulations are recommended for further programme development. Empowering ‘Aisyiyah groups proved effective as a strategy to strengthen community resilience to fire risk in the domestic environment

Abstract

Chronic diseases are a major health problem in Indonesia, including in Semarang City, with risk factors affecting 37% of the adult population in RW XI P4A, Pudakpayung Village. However, the capacity of Posbindu ILP cadres for the prevention and management of chronic diseases is still low. This community service program aims to improve the capacity of cadres through Posbindu ILP management training. The method used was descriptive quantitative with a pre-post intervention approach applied to 20 cadres. The intervention included theoretical material on administration, service flow, early detection of chronic disease risk factors, counselling, and referral, as well as simulated practice of service flow, manual and digital recording, and role-play counselling and referral. Data were collected through questionnaires and practice observation and analysed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed significant improvements in all aspects: understanding of governance (p=0.003), recording and reporting (p=0.001), early detection of chronic disease risks (p=0.006), counselling and health education (p=0.008), and referral and follow-up of participants (p=0.010). Self-confidence (95%) and teamwork (100%) also increased. This training has proven effective in improving the capacity of cadres. It is recommended that mentoring and further training be provided on a regular basis, that record-keeping and administration be standardised, and that community participation continue to be increased in order to maintain the sustainability of ILP Posbindu services
