Abstract

Anemia is a significant health problem among adolescent girls, mainly due to increased iron demand during growth and menstruation. SKI data in 2023 states that the prevalence of teenage anemia is 21%. This service aims to reduce the prevalence of anemia in adolescent girls through the socialization of the CARE Application (Prevent Teenage Anemia) and the provision of blood supplement tablets at MTsN Pangkep. This activity involved 60 female students as participants, with methods that included health education through videos, hemoglobin checks, anthropometric measurements (weight, height, upper arm circumference), and distribution of blood supplement tablets by the local Puskesmas. The community service team acted as facilitators, with support from UKS teachers and Puskesmas health workers. The results showed that the structured and collaborative approach effectively increased understanding of anemia and improved adolescent girls' health status. The activity also strengthened health literacy among participants, which may contribute to a long-term reduction in anemia prevalence. In conclusion, multifaceted interventions that combine health education and nutritional supplementation are essential in preventing anemia in adolescent girls and need to be implemented more widely in other school settings to achieve a more significant impact.

Abstract

Stunting is a global health issue that significantly impacts a country's well-being. Community empowerment, particularly through the role of posyandu (integrated health post) cadres and mothers of young children, is crucial in stunting prevention efforts. This community service program aimed to prevent stunting by educating the community using a health information pocketbook written in the local Suroboyoan language. Conducted in RW 5, Pacar Kembang Subdistrict, Surabaya, the program was attended by 30 participants, including posyandu cadres, pregnant women, and mothers of young children. The Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) method was implemented through socialization and interactive discussions. The program successfully increased the participants' average knowledge score from a pre-test score of 69.7 ± 15.19 to a post-test score of 86.7 ± 9.58, with a p-value of 0.000 (Wilcoxon test), indicating a statistically significant improvement. The use of a pocketbook based on the local language proved effective in enhancing participants' understanding of stunting prevention. This approach is not only locally relevant but also has the potential to be replicated in other areas with cultural adaptations. Additionally, this model can be integrated into community health programs to support sustainable efforts in stunting prevention and improving public health literacy.

The purpose of implementing the InKoLa Model is to improve the ability and independence of parents in caring for children and improve the ability of teachers/school parties to assist children at school and provide optimal health services by Puskesmas health workers. This model was implemented using training/education and mentoring methods in partner areas with a target group of 30 children and parents, 10 teachers/school officials and 12 Puskesmas health workers. The increase in parents' knowledge in the good category by 43.3%, high self-efficacy increased by 43.5%; UKS teacher knowledge in the good category increased by 40% and high self-efficacy increased by 40%. Children's knowledge in the good category increased by 42.6% and self-efficacy increased by 60%.  The meeting resulted in a common perception and commitment to bring optimal information, communication and governance at home and school. The INKOLA model was implemented to manage children with type 1 diabetes in the community. It is recommended that the Health Office and Puskesmas use the InKoLa model to manage children with type 1 diabetes in the community.

Abstract

The purpose of implementing community service activities is to provide skills to health cadres about the Oketani massage technique as one of the techniques to facilitate the process of breast milk production. The method of implementing this service is carried out by providing training through lectures, discussions and questions and answers with the help of powerpoint media, mannequins and videos. The technique of measuring the achievement of the implementation of activities is carried out by measuring knowledge in pre and post test. The place where the service activities were carried out was carried out in Maos District, Cilacap Regency with a total of 50 health cadre participants with a time allocation from March to September 2024. The result of the activity was the Oketani massage training which is one of the alternatives for breastfeeding mothers to smooth the milk production process with massage techniques. The results of the pre-test and post-test assessments showed an increase in scores, which was an indicator of the success of this community service activity. The increase in knowledge of posyandu cadres is expected to be disseminated to the wider community, so as to have a wider positive impact. This activity has important implications in making a positive contribution to improving the knowledge of health cadres, which in turn can help solve maternal problems in terms of breastfeeding. Thus, this community service activity is not only beneficial for posyandu cadres, but also has the potential to improve the health of mothers and children in the community as a whole.

Abstract

Berdasarkan informasi dari tokoh masyarakat dan Kepala Sekolah SMPN 31 Satap Lalang Tedong di Desa Ampekale, Kabupaten Maros, diketahui bahwa sering ditemukan remaja putri yang mengeluh lemah, letih, lesu serta pingsan ketika mengikuti upacara bendera. Keluhan dan kejadian tersebut merupakan gejala anemia. Pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan sebagai upaya meningkatkan kualitas kesehatan remaja putri melalui pemberian edukasi terkait pencegahan anemia. Metode yang digunakan yaitu Community-Based Participant Research dengan teknik permainan komunikasi antar pribadi, pengelompokan kartu, pemutaran video, dan pemaparan materi terkait anemia. Nilai rata-rata pengetahuan anemia remaja putri meningkat dari 27,1% menjadi 67,1% dan rata-rata niat pencegahan anemia remaja putri meningkat dari 68,7% menjadi 82,1% setelah diberikan edukasi. Remaja putri lebih rentan mengalami anemia karena terjadi siklus menstruasi sebagai salah satu faktor penyebabnya. Hal ini diperburuk dengan rendahnya pengetahuan dan niat konsumsi makanan kaya zat besi dan pelancar penyerapannya serta perlunya menghindari konsumsi zat penghambat penyerapan zat besi. Edukasi dengan metode partisipatif meningkatkan pengetahuan dan niat pencegahan anemia pada remaja putri.

Abstract

Obesity is an excessive accumulation of fat that poses a health risk. The right lifestyle and diet greatly affect the growth of adolescents. If there is an imbalance, then adolescents can be affected by obesity. The method in this activity is in the form of providing education through counselling at SMAN 7 Denpasar about the dangers of obesity and checking height, weight, and waist circumference to determine the BMI of students and early detection of obesity conditions. The number of students who were educated and measured BMI status was 50 students. The BMI measurement results showed that 48% of students had normal BMI status, 22% with overweight BMI status, 18% were obese, and 12% with underweight BMI status. The average results of pre-test and post-test assessments showed an increase in understanding from students about the dangers of obesity after being given counselling. This community service activity concludes that counselling is an effective means of increasing understanding of the dangers of obesity and measuring BMI in students can make them realise early on whether they are obese or not, making it easier to prevent or improve lifestyle and eating habits to prevent or overcome adolescent obesity.
