Abstract

The aging process causes physical and psychological changes in a person, including weakness of the pelvic muscles resulting in urinary incontinence. The impact of urinary incontinence is that it can reduce the quality of life of the elderly due to feelings of shame and low self-esteem due to the inability to hold urine. Kegel exercises are a non-pharmacological effort to treat incontinence. The aim of Kegel exercises is to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles so that they can overcome urinary incontinence. Health promotion and education about Kegel exercises is still limited to the general public. Posyandu activities for the elderly are still limited to weighing, measuring blood pressure and regular general health checks by the Community Health Center. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the potential of health cadres and the elderly regarding Kegel exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. The planned solution is through health education regarding Kegel exercises for the elderly. This activity was carried out at the Posyandu for the Elderly in Sidodadi village. The target of this activity is 40 elderly people who are members of the Elderly Posyandu. Before giving the material, 5 people knew about Kegel Exercises, and 28 people did not know about Kegel Exercises. After providing the material, 21 people knew and understood how to do Kegel exercises and 13 people still did not understand Kegel exercises. This shows an increase in elderly knowledge about Kegel exercises.

Abstract

Frambusia is an extremely contagious tropical disease. Indonesia is believed to have the highest number of frambusia instances in Southeast Asia, with 185 cases reported in 2021. The findings of serological examinations in numerous regions and cities suggest that the prevalence of frambusia is 20-120 per 100,000 people aged 1 to 15. Efforts to fight frambusia can be carried out through health promotion. A pre-survey at SD N 01 Dukuh Waluh, conducted through interviews with ten students, revealed that students had never received health education about frambusia and had no idea what the disease was. This program aims to educate students and their parents about frambusia and its prevention. The activity took place on Wednesday, March 15, 2023, at SD N 01 Dukuhwaluh, with 16 parents and 35 5th grade kids in attendance. The results of the program after health education revealed that the majority of respondents' knowledge increased (75%), knowledge remained constant by up to 25%, and no respondents (0%) had knowledge decreased. This exercise is expected to offer children and parents with a thorough awareness of Frambusia, as well as to encourage the adoption of clean and healthy living habits in order to prevent the disease. Keywords: Health education; Prevention; Frambusia; Children; Elementary School.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries that has a geographical location that is adequate for frequent disasters. Indonesia is located in a series of tectonic plates Australia, Pacific Eurasia and the Philippines. This geographical location allows for collisions between tectonic plates. This collision will cause natural disasters. Disasters are events that cannot be predicted and will have physical and psychological impacts. Disasters are stressors. Stressors that occur repeatedly will increase the potential for individuals to experience anxiety problems to depression. Increased anxiety can be experienced by all ages, therefore psychological assistance is needed after a disaster. This psychological assistance is in the form of activities to overcome anxiety and depression and reduce tension due to repeated exposure to stressors. Psychological assistance can be carried out by nurses and cadres. In this case, this PKM activity aims to improve the ability of PAUD and TK teachers in Surakarta City to assist in psychological assistance after a disaster. The method of service used is a 2-day workshop with the first day divided into in-depth theory and the second day in the form of direct simulation of psychological assistance after a disaster. The results of this service found an increase in the level of knowledge about psychological first aid after a disaster by 15.8%.

According to research, the brain of someone who is active (likes to think) will be healthier overall than people who don't or rarely use their brains. In theory, an active organ will require a supply of oxygen and protein. Dementia is a memory function disorder that occurs slowly. Dementia is quite common in the elderly, affecting about 10% of the age group over 65 years and 47% of the age group over 85 years. About 10-20% of dementia cases are reversible or treatable. Decreased ability of the brain and body makes the body easy to fall sick, senile and frustrated. Even so, this decrease can be corrected by doing Memory Training with Mnemonic Techniques.

Abstract

Lajing Village in the Arosbaya Community Health Center area is recorded as a village with a fairly high incidence of anemia in pregnant women. In 2021, it was reported that out of 83 pregnant women, 17 people (20.5%). The high incidence of anemia is due to, among other things, the poor behavior of mothers in preventing anemia. To reduce the risk of anemia in pregnant women, prevention efforts are needed which are supported and carried out by all parties, including health cadres. The lack of cadres' understanding of anemia in pregnant women is a problem in providing support to pregnant women. Community Service aims to increase the participation of health cadres in early detection and prevention of anemia in pregnant women. The method used in this service is to increase cadres' knowledge about anemia. The next stage is to accompany cadres in providing education about anemia in pregnant women and being a motivator in preventing anemia in pregnant women.

Abstract

The number of elderly people nationally and internationally tends to increase every year, one of the non-communicable diseases that elderly people often experience is diabetes mellitus (DM). Even though DM is a chronic disease that does not cause death directly, it can have fatal consequences if it is not managed properly. Management of DM requires multidisciplinary treatment which includes non-drug therapy and drug therapy. One of the non-drug therapies is rice bran varieties Situbagendit and IR64. Partner problems include the implementation of posyandu not being optimal, inadequate infrastructure, limited health examination tools, limited number of cadres, lack of knowledge of cadres and the discovery of elderly people suffering from DM.

Abstract

Hypertension is a common disease not only in the older age group but also in the productive age group. Various health problems will arise if the hypertension that occurs cannot be controlled properly. Controlling hypertension requires high awareness and adequate skills in self-care management. A family approach needs to be taken to provide more optimal results. Empowering families who are aware of hypertension through acupressure and progressive muscle relaxation carried out in this activity can increase family knowledge and skills in controlling hypertension. The family has a good understanding of hypertension and is able to practice acupressure and progressive muscle relaxation well. Families can teach and accompany family members who suffer from hypertension regarding controlling their hypertension in their daily lives on a regular basis. It is hoped that good understanding and ability to control hypertension can improve health status and improve the quality of life for families with hypertension sufferers.

In 2021, there was a decline on stunting proportion which attained 30.0%. Nevertheless, at national rank was at ranked 6th. One of the prominent factors is anaemia on teenage girls’ case. On the latest condition, the problem which is faced by partner is the lack of knowledge on teenage girls about anaemia. Thus, it is considered important to give elucidation to share knowledge, measure HB blood levels on teenage girls, and distribute iron tablet (Fe) to teenage girls. These activities are aimed to prevent anaemia on teenage girls. Elucidation about anaemia was held at Banjarmasin Junior High School number 20 in May 2023. The target is female students at Banjarmasin Junior High School number 20. The methods used in the community service are survey, lecture, and discussion. The results obtained are SMPN 20 students who are able to understand the ways of preventing anemia in adolescents after following the counseling. There are 2 participants who have anemia with HB 9 grams/dL and 85 other students have normal HB levels after undergoing hemoglobin levels as part of the counseling event. The granting of the blood-booked tablet is directly drunk at the entire counseling in an effort to prevent iron anemia.
