Abstract

The increasing number of older adults in Indonesia has contributed to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, particularly hypertension and diabetes mellitus, which adversely affect the quality of life. This community service program aimed to enhance health literacy, assess functional status, and provide community-based physiotherapy interventions for participants of the Chronic Disease Management Program (Prolanis) at the Lisu Primary Health Center, Kading Village, Barru Regency. The program was implemented in two stages: health education and functional screening, followed by a structured exercise intervention. Health education was delivered through interactive sessions on cardiovascular, neuropsychiatric, and women's health. Functional screening included assessments of pelvic floor muscle function, cognitive function, handgrip strength, and measurements of triglyceride and long-term blood glucose levels. The interventions consisted of Kegel exercises, Brain Gym activities, and brisk walking, involving physiotherapy lecturers, physiotherapy students, and Prolanis community health volunteers. Of the 74 older adults enrolled, 57 completed the program. Screening results revealed variations in cognitive function, muscle strength, and metabolic status, indicating the need for individualized interventions to address these issues. The program received positive responses, as reflected by high participation rates among older adults and improved readiness of community health volunteers to independently facilitate future exercise sessions. This community-based physiotherapy program was effective in improving health literacy, providing baseline data on the functional status of older adults, and strengthening community capacity to support sustainable health management in the older people.

Abstract

Teenagers entering puberty are at high risk of iron deficiency anemia, a condition caused by iron loss during menstruation. This risk increases if dietary iron intake is insufficient. During menstruation, women lose significant amounts of iron-rich blood, reducing their ability to transport oxygen throughout the body. This can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, tiredness, and decreased concentration, which can disrupt daily activities. Providing iron-fortified tablets (IBT) to adolescent girls is one way to address anemia. 80.9% of adolescent girls receive IBT at school, but only 1.4% consume IBT. Survey results show that 95% of adolescents do not consume IBT, and 5% consume IBT but irregularly, citing a lack of symptoms of anemia and the effects of IBT. This community service project aims to provide knowledge about anemia and how to prevent it by consuming IBT and, as a complementary therapy, consuming milk dates to prevent anemia. The method in this activity is lecture, question and answer, the media used is leaflet, the duration of the activity is 60 minutes. This activity was carried out at the Youth Posyandu, Sungai Putri Village, located in the Sungai Putri Village Office Hall, Jambi City in May-July 2023, attended by 40 female participants. An assessment of knowledge about anemia and how to prevent it was carried out before and after counseling using a questionnaire. The results of filling out the questionnaire showed that the average knowledge of adolescents about anemia and its prevention before being given education was 61.88 and after being given education there was an increase in the average knowledge score to 78.25. Providing education can increase this knowledge due to the structured transfer of information, the use of appropriate media and active involvement of participants.
