Abstract

According to data from the International Labor Organization (ILO), it is estimated that there are around 340 million work accidents and 160 million cases of occupational diseases (PAK) each year worldwide. This condition shows the importance of implementing occupational safety and health (K3) in every workplace, including in office environments and construction projects. This community service activity is new because it focuses on the socialization of K3 in the construction project environment as a form of preventive effort against work accidents and work-related diseases. The socialization was carried out at the Kinara Dormitory Development Project on July 20-25, 2024. The purpose of this activity is to increase the knowledge of project workers regarding the importance of K3 and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), so that they can work more safely and avoid the risk of accidents and PAK. This activity was attended by five workers and was carried out in small groups. The method used was lectures and questions and answers with the help of flipcharts and leaflets. Based on the results of observations, the average worker works for 10 hours per day, six days a week, with a break time of one hour. However, it is known that workers have not used PPE in carrying out their duties. Through this activity, there was an 85% increase in worker knowledge regarding K3 and the use of PPE. Thus, the implementation of K3 is very necessary to create a healthy, safe, and comfortable work environment, as well as to maintain worker productivity. Socialization of occupational safety and health (K3) has been proven to prevent work accidents and occupational diseases (PAK) in the Kinara Dormitory Development Project.

Abstract

The community service program in Derangga Village, Pembuang Hulu District, Seruyan Regency, aims to improve the knowledge of adolescents of SMP Satap 4 Hanau about free association. In some cases, free association among adolescents in this village is starting to be worrying. The main factors that encourage free association are the lack of supervision from parents and the low level of education related to the negative impacts of this behavior. Through counseling on free association, adolescents are given an understanding of the anatomy and function of the reproductive organs, biological changes in adolescents, reproductive health problems in adolescents, free association, factors causing free sex and the consequences of free sex. The evaluation showed a significant increase in adolescent knowledge: before the counseling, only 30% of participants had good knowledge, while after the counseling, 78% of participants had good knowledge. This activity is expected to reduce the risk of health risks associated with free association, including transmission of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and unwanted pregnancies. This program needs to be continued with more detailed sessions and additional material support so that the knowledge gained is more in-depth and can be applied in everyday life.

Abstract

Knowledge of first aid for drowning victims among communities near water attractions is essential to improve the success of assistance, especially for tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis). Proper first aid knowledge is necessary to the reduce mortality and morbidity of accident victims, as the level of knowledge will affect the handling techniques for accident victims before they are taken to the hospital. However, currently, very little education is provided to the community as first responders at the scene. Therefore, the PPK ORMAWA BEM STRADA INDONESIA team conducted training on first aid for drowning victims for Pokdarwis and the community around Sumber Complang, Pranggang Village, to increase awareness and success when assistting. This activity aims to determine the relationship between increased knowledge of Pranggang Village Pokdarwis and helping drowning victims using the simulation method. The results obtained show a p-value of 0.004. Since 0.004 is less than < 0.05, it can be concluded that there is a difference in respondents' abilities before and after training. An effective simulation method can easily teach someone to understand new knowledge. These results indicate that the simulation method is very effective in training lay people to perform first aid for drowning victims.

Abstract

One of the main causes of low exclusive breastfeeding is the lack of knowledge of mothers about the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding. Many mothers do not fully understand the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and prefer to give formula milk, even though exclusive breastfeeding is the best choice for babies. Not a few mothers also find it difficult to provide exclusive breastfeeding, either because of medical problems, work, or ignorance about the right way to breastfeed. The aim of this community service is to optimize breastfeeding knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding to increase the success of breastfeeding and improve the baby's health status. This activity was carried out by providing counseling on exclusive breastfeeding by providing a Pre-Test before being given counseling and a post-test after being given counseling. Then conducting a demonstration of how to breastfeed properly and correctly. This counseling was carried out at the Al Kautsar Clinic, Setro Village, Prambon Sidoarjo which was attended by 20 breastfeeding mothers. The results before being given counseling were 8 participants (40%) with Good knowledge and after the activity there was an increase to 15 participants (75%) with Good knowledge. It is hoped that more emphasis will be placed on providing exclusive breastfeeding to increase the success of breastfeeding and improve the health of babies.

Abstract

Stunting in children is a complex health problem with long-term impacts on physical growth, cognitive development, and future individual productivity. One contributing factor to stunting is poor environmental sanitation, particularly during pregnancy. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge and awareness of pregnant women about the importance of environmental sanitation as a preventative measure against stunting in children. The activity was carried out in Rancangkencono Village, involving 12 pregnant women as participants. The implementation method included direct counseling, group discussions, and demonstrations of basic sanitation practices such as handwashing, using healthy latrines, and managing household waste. Evaluation was conducted by comparing pretest and posttest results to measure knowledge gains. The results showed an increase in the average knowledge score of participants from 55 in the pretest to 85 in the posttest. In addition, participants demonstrated positive changes in attitudes toward implementing clean and healthy living behaviors in the home environment. Data analysis showed that a participatory and contextual educational approach can increase the understanding and motivation of pregnant women to maintain environmental cleanliness for the health of their fetus and unborn child. Environmental sanitation education has proven to be an effective strategy in preventing stunting from pregnancy, so it needs to be implemented sustainably with cross-sector support at the community level.

Abstract

Stunting can begin as early as adolescence, particularly through anemia in young girls. Anemia occurs due to a lack of hemoglobin, especially during menstruation. If not properly addressed, it can lead to stunting. In Indonesia, the anemia rate among adolescents remains high, reaching 32% in 2018 and declining to 15.5% in 2023. According to the WHO, this figure is still considered high, as it remains above 10%. The purpose of this community service activity is to increase adolescent knowledge and skills regarding anemia prevention. The community outreach activities included pre-test and post-tests, giving health education, and hemoglobin level checks. Results showed that knowledge before the health education was less of knowledge (84.3%), but after the health education increased to 86.8% in good knowledge. Furthermore, hemoglobin level checks revealed that 37% of students had anemia, with half of these having moderate anemia. This community service activity can be a way to prevent anemia through health education and hemoglobin level checks, thereby increasing knowledge about anemia prevention and stunting prevention.
