Abstract

Organic waste management at the household level remains a critical environmental health challenge, particularly following limitations in landfill capacity. This condition highlights the need for community-based empowerment approaches to enhance independent waste management practices. This community service program aimed to improve knowledge, attitudes, skills, and participation of community members in managing organic waste as planting media in Dusun Druwo, Bantul. A participatory community-based approach was applied through four stages: education (L1), Community Self Survey (L2), training and demonstration (L3), and cadre-led dissemination (L4). Outcome measurements included pretest–posttest assessment, skill observation, and monitoring of cadre participation. The results showed improvements in knowledge and attitudes, reflected by increased awareness of improper waste disposal behavior (98% to 100%), perceived ease of independent waste management (89% to 95%), and preference for self-managed waste processing over direct disposal (73% to 78%). Observations also indicated improved practical skills in producing planting media from organic waste. Cadre participation in dissemination was implemented at the community level, although not evenly across all areas. This program contributed to enhancing community capacity in organic waste management and initiated positive behavioral changes toward environmentally sustainable practices.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major non-communicable disease with a high prevalence among older adults, requiring community-based promotive and preventive interventions. Limited knowledge regarding risk factors, dietary management, and physical activity remains a key barrier to effective hypertension control among the elderly. This community service activity aimed to improve elderly knowledge through health education at the elderly integrated service post (Posyandu Lansia) in Dusun Krikilan, within the working area of Ngaglik II Primary Health Center. A participatory educational approach with a one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The activity was conducted on November 3, 2023, involving 20 elderly participants. The intervention included interactive lectures, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and leaflet-based education. The results demonstrated an increase in participants’ knowledge based on pretest–posttest score comparison, with more than 70% of participants showing improvement. Additionally, over 50% of participants actively engaged in the discussion sessions. These findings indicate that community-based health education is effective in improving elderly understanding of hypertension. The activity also reinforces the role of elderly posyandu as a platform for health education. Continuous implementation is recommended to support long-term behavioral changes in hypertension management.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a major cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, partly influenced by inadequate nutritional intake. Caregivers play a strategic role in managing elderly nutrition; however, gaps in knowledge still affect the quality of care. This community service activity aimed to improve caregivers’ knowledge of elderly nutrition through a participatory-based educational intervention. The activity was conducted on October 26, 2023, at the Depok II Primary Health Center, Sleman Regency, involving 25 elderly caregivers recruited purposively. The intervention was delivered through interactive lectures, discussions, and educational media, including PowerPoint presentations and leaflets, with knowledge assessed using pretest and posttest instruments. The results showed that more than 70% of participants experienced an increase in knowledge, while over 80% actively participated in the discussion sessions. Qualitatively, participants demonstrated an improved understanding of basic elderly nutrition concepts and their application in daily care practices. This activity indicates that participatory-based education is effective in enhancing caregiver capacity as a promotive effort to prevent NCDs in older adults. This intervention model has strong potential for replication and sustainable integration into primary healthcare services.

Abstract

Diarrheal diseases among school-aged children in rural areas remain a public health challenge, driven by low Clean and Healthy Behaviour (PHBS) practices and limited sanitation facilities. This community service project aimed to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of the GEMBIRA (Gerakan Membiasakan Bersih dan Rajin pada Anak) program in improving health knowledge, attitudes, and PHBS skills among elementary school children in RW 08 Krajan Hamlet, Sukorambi Village, Jember Regency. The activity utilized a Community-Based Behavioral Intervention approach, integrating promotive education, participatory learning, and community empowerment. The intervention was conducted between August and September 2025 at the RW 08 Community Hall, structured into four sequential sessions (visual education, CTPS and toothbrushing simulation, group health quiz, and creative drawing). A total of 22 children aged 6–12 years were selected via purposive sampling. Quantitative evaluation was performed using repeated measurements (Pre-Test to Post-Test Session 4) adapted from the Indonesian Ministry of Health guidelines and analysed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. Qualitative findings were gathered through observational performance checklists. The GEMBIRA program was successfully executed with a 100% attendance rate. Inferential analysis demonstrated statistically significant improvements (p<0.05) across all evaluated indicators: diarrhea knowledge (p=0.001), toothbrushing knowledge (p=0.002), healthy snack consumption habits (p=0.001), and handwashing with soap/CTPS behaviour (p=0.003). Qualitatively, participants demonstrated spontaneous independence by correctly performing the 6-step CTPS technique prior to sessions without prompting. The GEMBIRA program is proven effective as a community-based educational intervention model to enhance cognitive capacity and promote healthy habituation among school-aged children. Participating children have the potential to act as peer-educators within their environment. It is recommended that local health cadres, schools, and primary health centers (Puskesmas) conduct routine monitoring and provide supporting sanitation facilities to ensure the long-term sustainability of healthy behaviours.

Abstract

Oral health problems remain a public health challenge among school-aged children, particularly those living in residential care settings where access to health education and supervised healthy behaviors is limited. Preliminary observations at the Al-Kahfi Foundation in Cirebon indicated that several children had not yet practiced proper toothbrushing techniques, potentially increasing their risk of oral health problems. This community service program aimed to improve children's initial understanding and basic skills in maintaining oral health through interactive education, toothbrushing demonstrations, and supervised practice. The program was conducted at the Al-Kahfi Foundation, Cirebon, in August 2025 and involved 30 children aged 6–12 years. The intervention consisted of oral health education using dental models (phantoms), demonstrations of proper toothbrushing techniques, guided toothbrushing practice, and evaluation through oral questioning and direct observation of participants' toothbrushing techniques. All participants completed the activity with a 100% attendance rate. Based on observations during the evaluation and practice sessions, most participants were able to explain the importance of oral hygiene, identify the appropriate timing for toothbrushing, and demonstrate proper toothbrushing techniques according to the instructions provided. The educational and demonstration activities provided benefits in supporting participants' initial understanding and basic skills related to oral health maintenance. This visual-kinesthetic educational approach has the potential to serve as a promotive and preventive oral health promotion model that can be replicated in orphanages and other child residential care institutions with similar characteristics. The foundation management is encouraged to integrate supervised daily toothbrushing into children's routines and collaborate with the local primary healthcare center for regular oral health education and monitoring.

Abstract

Maternal and child health remains a major public health priority. Based on coordination with the Sleman Primary Health Center and community health volunteers in Tridadi Village, several challenges were identified, including low participation in the Pregnant Women Class Program, limited knowledge of pregnancy danger signs and appropriate complementary feeding practices, and inadequate involvement of husbands in supporting maternal health. These conditions highlight the need for community-based educational interventions that enhance both knowledge and practical skills among pregnant women and their families. This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of pregnant women through the implementation of a Pregnant Women Class Program in Tridadi Village, Sleman Regency. The program was conducted on March 15, 2025, during a single four-hour session using a community empowerment approach that integrated health education, interactive discussions, educational videos, complementary feeding (CF) demonstrations, and pregnancy exercise practice. The program involved 12 pregnant women and their husbands, with support from community health volunteers and healthcare professionals from the Sleman Primary Health Center. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pretest–posttest knowledge assessments, observation of participants’ practical skills, and participant satisfaction surveys. The average knowledge score increased from 57.5 before the intervention to 86.3 after the intervention. Participants achieved an average practical skill score of 83.3% in complementary feeding preparation and 93.8% in pregnancy exercise performance. Furthermore, participant satisfaction reached a mean score of 4.82 out of 5. The Pregnant Women Class Program effectively improved participants' knowledge and practical skills and contributed to strengthening the capacity of pregnant women and family support in promoting maternal and neonatal health at the community level.
