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

Aging impacts musculoskeletal function declines, such as joint stiffness and muscle pain, which can trigger geriatric emergencies like falls and immobilization. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of stretching-based group activity therapy in reducing pain and improving mortality in the elderly. The design used was a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test without a control group, involving 47 elderly at the Pelayanan Sosial Tresna Werdha Magetan (Healthcare and Rehabilitation Unit). The intervention was conducted in one 40-minute, consisting of statistical and dynamic stretching of several body parts. Evaluation was conducted using a Visual Analog Scale. Results showed a significant reduction in pain (median Visual Analog Scale from 6–8 to 2–3) and active participation by all participants. The discussion confirmed that group activity therapy stretching is effective as a non-pharmacological intervention for preventing chronic pain and the risk of musculoskeletal emergencies in the elderly, and provides psychosocial benefits through group interaction.

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.

Abstract

The rational and safe use of medication is a critical concern in pharmaceutical practice. A key aspect often overlooked by patients is the Beyond Use Date (BUD), which indicates the time limit for using a medication after its primary packaging has been opened or the preparation compounded. This community service activity aimed to increase public awareness and understanding of BUD, especially regarding non-sterile ENT (ear, nose, and throat) medications. The program was conducted at Sriti Pharmacy in Kediri City on July 22, 2025, involving 26 outpatient participants. The educational method included personal counselling, interactive discussions, and leaflet distribution. Evaluation of the program's impact was performed qualitatively through direct observation and analysis of participant feedback during the sessions. Initial interactions revealed a universal lack of prior knowledge regarding BUD among participants, who frequently confused it with the Expiration Date (ED). Following the intervention, observations indicated a notable increase in participant awareness and engagement. Participants actively asked relevant questions, were able to verbally articulate the distinction between BUD and ED, and expressed a clear understanding of the risks and proper storage practices. These qualitative findings suggest that direct educational interventions in pharmacy settings are a valuable method for improving medication literacy. It is acknowledged that this activity has limitations, primarily the absence of quantitative measurement to formally assess the degree of knowledge improvement and a small sample size at a single location, which limits the generalizability of the findings.

Abstract

Stunting is a growth disorder that indicates problems with the body's organs, particularly the brain, which is vulnerable to damage. Conducting psychosocial development screening for stunted children has benefits in efforts for early detection and appropriate interventions to support the overall growth and development of children. Stunted children not only face obstacles in physical growth but are also at risk of experiencing delays in cognitive, emotional, social, and behavioral development. Therefore, a comprehensive approach through psychosocial screening becomes a strategic step to prevent more serious long-term impacts. This community service aims to conduct psychosocial development screening for preschool children experiencing stunting. The method used was to provide counseling to parents about psychosocial development, then conduct a psychosocial development screening practice using the KMME questionnaire followed by a question and answer session. The questionnaire was given in the form of closed-ended statements with two answer options: yes or no. The results obtained were good development (34.8%), poor development (65.2%). This community service shows that parents are capable of conducting psychosocial development screening for their children. Through this screening, parents can understand their child's psychosocial development and can enhance it through various efforts such as stimulation and parenting styles implemented within the family. The appropriate parenting style and developmental stimulation provided by parents to their children are expected to allow parents to recognize any abnormalities in their child's developmental process as early as possible, enabling them to provide comprehensive stimulation for the child's growth and development in physical, mental, and social aspects.

Abstract

Primary health care services serve as the frontline of public health development. Health cadres play a strategic role as intermediaries between communities and health facilities, yet their capacity remains limited. This community service project aimed to analyze the impact of strengthening cadres’ roles through structured training on knowledge, skills, attitudes, and self-efficacy in improving access to and quality of primary health care services in Jekek Village, Nganjuk Regency. The study applied a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach involving 25 posyandu cadres. The evaluation showed a 25% increase in cadres’ knowledge based on pre- and post-test results. Community participation in posyandu increased by 20%, and cadres demonstrated improved skills in health data recording and communication with residents. Furthermore, the establishment of a communication forum between cadres, the puskesmas, and the village government contributed to the sustainability of the program. The findings highlight that effective empowerment strategies include continuous training, area-based mentoring, and non-financial incentives such as social recognition and competency certification. Empowerment through a participatory approach was proven to enhance access and quality of primary health care services and strengthen community-based health systems, although limited training opportunities and logistical constraints remain challenges. Sustainable policy support is therefore needed to further strengthen cadres’ capacity in primary health care delivery.

Abstract

The rapid development of information technology has significantly affected various aspects of life, including reproductive health and family planning. One innovative approach in this area is the development of mobile apps specifically designed to help couples of childbearing age access accurate, practical, and easy-to-use information. This community service program is implemented to strengthen knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to reproductive health through the use of a mobile app that integrates three important features: a fertility calculator, a contraceptive method guide, and interactive discussions. The fertility calculator allows users to monitor the menstrual cycle, determine fertile and infertile periods, and support pregnancy planning and prevention of unwanted pregnancies. This contraceptive guide provides comprehensive information about the various methods available, including hormonal and non-hormonal options, along with their benefits, side effects, and suitability for a variety of health conditions. Discussion forums create a safe platform for couples to share experiences, ask questions, and receive support from peers and healthcare professionals. Together, these features are expected to increase users' confidence and independence in making decisions. This program uses a community approach, Participatory Learning and Action  (PLA) model. A total of 25 couples of childbearing age participated in this program. The results showed a significant increase in participant knowledge, with the average score increasing from 55.2% before the intervention to 82.4% after the intervention. In conclusion, the use of mobile applications in reproductive health education and family planning has been shown to be effective
