Abstract

Poliomyelitis (polio) is a highly infectious disease caused by the poliovirus and can lead to permanent paralysis. To address outbreaks of type 2 poliovirus, the Indonesian government implemented the National Immunization Week (PIN) using the novel Oral Polio Vaccine type 2 (nOPV2). This initiative aims to increase polio immunization coverage, particularly among children aged 0–7 years, who are most vulnerable to the disease. This activity was conducted in two sub-districts—Karang Panjang and Amantelu—through school visits and local health posts (posyandu). Each vaccinated child’s immunization card was updated, and families received counseling regarding the importance of polio vaccination. The campaign in the working area of Karpan Health Center, Ambon, reached 1,204 children, achieving 77.8% coverage. Community participation, especially among parents, was enthusiastic. Future efforts are expected to increase coverage to 100% through continued public engagement and education.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern in Indonesia, particularly among household contacts of pulmonary TB patients. This community outreach initiative was conducted in Amantelu Subdistrict, Sirimau District, Ambon City, with the objective of reducing TB transmission through targeted interventions. The program involved door-to-door health education, distribution of educational materials (posters and leaflets), and sputum sample collection from household contacts. The educational materials emphasized Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) as a strategy to prevent TB transmission. Based on field data, 9 suspected TB cases were identified in December 2024, with a contact screening coverage rate of 52.5%. Key barriers included low public awareness and insufficient collaboration between health workers and families. The program demonstrated that continuous health education and proper environmental conditions, such as ventilation and hygiene, are critical in TB prevention. Strengthening interpersonal communication between healthcare providers and communities is essential for improving TB control outcomes, especially in the post-pandemic era.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) remain one of the most prevalent diseases in the work area of the Laimu Care Community Health Center. Many people tend to ignore early symptoms, contributing to the increased risk of transmission. Therefore, an effective health education strategy is essential to raise public awareness and promote preventive behaviors. This activity aimed to improve public knowledge and preventive behaviors related to ARI through structured health education in the Laimu Health Center area. The health education strategy was implemented with 20 respondents during working hours at the health center. Preparations included the development of educational media (leaflets), coordination with health center staff, and approval for activity implementation. The educational session consisted of lectures, interactive discussions, and Q&A on ARI symptoms, transmission, and prevention. The findings showed that respondents’ knowledge about ARI was generally good. Out of 10 questions, most participants answered correctly on nine items, with only one item (related to transmission sources) showing a lower correct response rate. The education program also reinforced the importance of clean and healthy lifestyle habits. According to health center data, ARI ranks third among the top ten diseases in the area. Health education through lectures and printed media has proven effective in improving public knowledge and awareness of ARI. Continued health promotion is recommended to further reduce the incidence and risk of ARI transmission within the community

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health concern in tropical countries such as Indonesia, particularly during the rainy season. Early education and awareness are crucial in minimizing morbidity and mortality caused by the disease. This community engagement activity aimed to improve knowledge and awareness among patients, families, and visitors at UPT RSUD Labuang Baji Makassar regarding the prevention and early identification of DHF. The program involved structured health education sessions using a Satuan Acara Penyuluhan (SAP) plan, which included presentations, discussions, and distribution of educational materials such as posters and leaflets. The sessions were conducted in inpatient wards, engaging patients and their families. The intervention enhanced participants’ understanding of DHF symptoms, transmission, critical phases, and preventive measures such as maintaining environmental hygiene, proper water management, and promoting healthy behaviors. Increased motivation among family members was observed in taking part in preventive actions at home and in their communities. Health education efforts targeting both patients and their families are effective in raising awareness and promoting behavioral changes for DHF prevention. Continuous collaboration between healthcare providers and the community is essential to sustain preventive measures and reduce the incidence of DHF.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperuricemia are among the major public health challenges in Indonesia. Health promotion and disease prevention efforts through medical check-ups and education are important strategies to increase public awareness and enable early detection of NCD risk factors. This community service program was conducted in Adatongeng Village, Turikale District, Maros Regency, involving 12 residents. The intervention consisted of three stages: anamnesis, vital signs examination including blood pressure, and blood sugar and uric acid level tests. Counseling was then provided on healthy lifestyle practices, including a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and the importance of routine medical check-ups. The results showed active community participation in both the examinations and educational sessions, as well as increased awareness of the importance of early detection and prevention of NCDs. This activity suggests that integrating medical check-ups and education is an effective strategy in health promotion and disease prevention efforts to improve community quality of life.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the leading non-communicable diseases contributing to high morbidity and mortality rates in Indonesia. Natural management of hypertension through lifestyle modifications and the consumption of healthy foods is increasingly favored as a complementary therapy. Cucumber juice is known to contain active compounds with the potential to lower blood pressure. This community service program aimed to provide education and introduce cucumber juice as a natural alternative for reducing blood pressure among individuals with hypertension in Ciomas, Bogor. A total of 40 hypertensive participants took part in activities that included educational sessions, demonstrations on how to prepare cucumber juice, and blood pressure measurements before and after the intervention. The results showed an average decrease of 14.8 mmHg in systolic blood pressure and 8.4 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure after consuming cucumber juice for seven consecutive days. Additionally, participants' knowledge regarding hypertension and the benefits of cucumber juice significantly improved, as evidenced by pre-test and post-test assessments. This activity demonstrates that cucumber juice can serve as an effective natural alternative to help lower blood pressure, and highlights the importance of education in raising public awareness about hypertension management. Further research with a larger sample size and extended duration is recommended to validate these findings.
