Electrolyte imbalance increases the risk of heart disease, particularly among adolescents with unbalanced diets and low physical activity. Education about the role of electrolytes is essential for early prevention. This community service activity aimed to enhance the understanding of Al-Azhar Medan Private High School students as participants about the role of electrolytes in cardiac health and encourage them to adopt a healthy lifestyle. The methods included interactive counseling through presentations, discussions, and practical activities. The materials covered the types of electrolytes, their functions, signs of imbalance, and ways to maintain electrolyte balance through a healthy diet and adequate hydration. Visual aids and real-life case examples were utilized to clarify the participants' understanding. The evaluation results showed a significant improvement in the participants' knowledge of electrolyte functions and the importance of electrolyte balance for cardiac health. Most participants expressed an intention to pay more attention to their diet and electrolyte intake, and the program was effective in increasing knowledge and awareness of the importance of electrolytes for heart health.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic condition with increasing prevalence worldwide, including in Indonesia, where the number of affected individuals reached 10.7 million in 2021. One of the main factors contributing to the rising risk of DM in adolescents is obesity, often influenced by unhealthy lifestyle habits. Therefore, education on maintaining an ideal body weight is essential to prevent DM in this age group. This Community Service Program aims to educate the students of SMA Swasta Al-Azhar Medan about the importance of maintaining an ideal body weight to prevent DM. The program combines lectures, interactive discussions, and hands-on activities. It includes a pre-test, educational content delivery, practical exercises, and a post-test. 100 students participated, covering topics such as the relationship between body weight and DM, healthy eating habits, physical activity, and how to monitor weight and calculate Body Mass Index (BMI). The results show significant improvements in students' knowledge about DM, healthy eating, and physical activity. Knowledge of DM increased by 45.5%, understanding of healthy eating improved by 26.1%, and awareness of physical activity grew by 24.3%. Additionally, the average BMI of students decreased by 2.4%, indicating positive lifestyle changes. In conclusion, the program successfully improved students' understanding and encouraged behavioral changes to prevent DM. The increase in knowledge, healthier eating habits, greater physical activity, and reduction in BMI highlight the effectiveness of the educational approach. This program can potentially serve as a model for promoting healthy lifestyles to prevent DM in adolescents.

Abstract

Speech delay is often found in children. Parents often do not understand the condition of their child experiencing speech delay and the efforts that must be made to handle it. Leaving a child without treatment can have more severe impacts. Manual detection by health workers and the role of parents that can be done through integrated health posts, also cannot be done in detail and continuously. Based on a qualitative field survey conducted on cadres and mothers of toddlers in the Batubusuk area, it was found that cadres and mothers of toddlers did not know exactly about speech delay. The results of the counseling activities showed that there was an increase in the knowledge of mothers of toddlers before and after counseling about speech delay, while there was no change in the cadres. Educational activities need to be improved through various methods and media, efforts that can be made include early detection when integrated health posts are carried out through speech screening in toddlers and monitoring the development of toddler speech through scheduled door-to-door services.

Abstract

The Social Security Administering Agency (BPJS), which was established on the basis of social justice, benefits, and humanity, is trying to build a program for the Indonesian people called the National Social Security System. In accordance with Law Number 40 of 2004 concerning the National Social Security System, the Social Security Administering Agency (BPJS) was established as a non-profit institution to manage the State's social security program. The community as a whole may not fully understand the implementation of the BPJS program due to the low level of socialization and understanding of the health program. The community has not fully become a BPJS participant, especially those who work in rural areas or as informal laborers (farmers or laborers), because not all of them are registered or have a BPJS card. The purpose of community service is to provide an understanding to the non-formal community regarding the importance of having BPJS Health as a form of affordable and easily accessible health protection, to motivate the non-formal community to join the BPJS health program, and to support increased access for rural communities to quality health services through the use of BPJS health facilities. Community service was carried out in Perbarakan Village, Deli Serdang Regency, with 20 people attending. This activity is effective in empowering the community to access affordable and quality health services through BPJS Kesehatan, although ongoing support is still needed to overcome existing obstacles.

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding plays a crucial role in the health of mothers and infants. Providing exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of an infant's life can reduce the risk of child mortality and protect mothers from various diseases, including breast cancer. Despite its clear benefits, the global rate of exclusive breastfeeding remains low, with less than 40% of infants receiving exclusive breast milk. Factors such as maternal health issues, breast pain, and social stigma around breastfeeding in public often act as barriers. Method this program was implemented through a series of educational activities, including lectures, discussions, and Q&A sessions, emphasizing the importance of breast milk for the health of both mothers and infants. The outreach was attended by 20 breastfeeding mothers and took place on Friday, November 15, 2024, lasting 1 hour and 45 minutes. The program aims to encourage more mothers to adopt healthy breastfeeding practices. With ongoing support and guidance, it is hoped that awareness of the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding will increase, positively impacting the health of mothers, infants, and families. The program also highlights the importance of collaboration among healthcare providers, the government, and the community to create an environment that supports exclusive breastfeeding. As a result of this activity, breastfeeding mothers gained information and education about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and how to implement it during the first six months after birth, particularly in the Sugiharjo Dusun II, under the jurisdiction of Pustu Desa Sugiharjo Batang Kuis.
