Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic condition that requires routine management to prevent long-term complications. One effective strategy is home blood pressure monitoring by patients with family support. This community service activity aimed to improve family knowledge and technical skills in performing self-monitoring of blood pressure for hypertensive patients. The program was conducted in a single session with 20 patients and their family members. The intervention included interactive education and hands-on training using digital sphygmomanometers. Evaluation was conducted through pre- and post-tests for knowledge, along with observation of self-monitoring skills. The results showed a significant increase in family knowledge scores from an average of 45% to 78%, with the majority of participants in the high category. Self-monitoring skills also improved, with 14 participants rated as good, 5 as moderate, and 1 as poor. These findings indicate that a single intensive educational and practical session effectively enhances family capabilities as active partners, emphasizing the importance of self-monitoring blood pressure in supporting home management of hypertension. It is recommended to continue with follow-up or refresher sessions to maintain skills and consistency in blood pressure monitoring at home.

Abstract

Tarumajaya Village is a tea plantation area with significant potential in the agro-tourism sector. Geographically, the village is surrounded by vast tea plantations jointly managed by PT Perkebunan Nusantara VIII, Perum Perhutani, and PT London Sumatra Indonesia. In addition to the tea plantations, the area is also home to a natural lake called Situ Cisanti, which has a circumference of approximately three kilometers and serves as one of the main water sources of the Citarum River.Considering these potentials, Tarumajaya Village could be developed into a leading agro-tourism destination similar to the Osulloc Tea Museum tea plantation tourism area on Jeju Island. Furthermore, this tourism potential is supported by local MSME communities under Bale Kertasari, which produce various traditional food and beverage products unique to the village. In this context, the utilization of the Korean language becomes an innovative strategy to support the marketing of local MSME products through labels, packaging, and culturally based promotional narratives. By developing foreign language skills relevant to potential markets, particularly South Korean tourists, Tarumajaya’s MSME products can become more attractive and value-added, while also gaining greater opportunities to penetrate international markets and strengthen the identity of the village as a globally competitive tourism destination.

Abstract

This Community Service Program addressed limited access to clean water at SDN 219 Kassa, which resulted in poorly functioning toilet facilities and underutilized school land for reforestation. These conditions affected hygiene, health, and ecological awareness among school residents. The program aimed to: (1) enhance teachers’ and students’ skills in clean water processing using appropriate technology; (2) install a simple water treatment system for toilets and irrigation; (3) promote productive land use through reforestation; and (4) foster ecological awareness and environmental independence. Activities included socialization, training, technology implementation, mentoring, and evaluation. A biofilter-based water treatment installation with a capacity of ±50 liters/minute was constructed, supported by a drilled well and water tank. A school gardening program was also implemented, planting kangkung, mustard greens, tomatoes, chilies, and eggplant managed by teachers and students. Results show significant skill improvement, with average scores increasing from 47.5 (low) to 79.5 (good). The water system functions effectively for sanitation and irrigation, while school land is now used as a productive garden and contextual learning resource. Initial harvests are projected to reach ±107 kg by December 2025 for school consumption or small-scale entrepreneurship.
