Abstract

Background: Family health literacy is a key determinant of clean and healthy living behaviors at the household level; however, many communities still face a gap between health knowledge and daily practice. This gap increases household vulnerability to environment-related health problems and communicable diseases. Objective: This community service program aimed to improve family health literacy and household clean and healthy living behaviors through structured family-based education. Methods: A quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was applied using a participatory community nursing approach. The intervention was delivered through interactive education sessions, PHBS skill demonstrations, problem-solving discussions, and household mentoring over 6–8 weeks. Measurements were conducted before and after the intervention using a family health literacy questionnaire and a household PHBS observation checklist. Results: The program showed significant improvements in family health literacy scores after the intervention, particularly in understanding health information, assessing household risks, and making preventive health decisions. Household PHBS practices also improved across key indicators, including handwashing with soap, household waste management, routine cleaning of water containers, availability of handwashing facilities, cough/sneeze etiquette, and kitchen and bathroom hygiene. Conclusion: A structured, participatory, and context-based family PHBS education program effectively improves family health literacy and household PHBS practices in the community. The program should be sustained through collaboration among primary health centers, community health volunteers, and local leaders, with periodic mentoring, continuous monitoring, and replication in other communities to broaden public health impact.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension remains a major public health concern because it is often asymptomatic in its early stages and may lead to serious cardiovascular complications if left undetected and uncontrolled. Community-based promotive and preventive strategies, particularly blood pressure screening and lifestyle education, are essential to improve early detection and strengthen public awareness of modifiable risk factors. Objective: This community service program aimed to enhance early detection of hypertension and improve community knowledge regarding hypertension prevention through blood pressure screening and lifestyle education. Methods: A community-based participatory promotive-preventive approach was applied involving adults and older adults. The program integrated blood pressure screening using calibrated digital devices, group health education, interactive discussions, and individual health consultations. Educational content emphasized hypertension risk factors, healthy dietary practices, regular physical activity, stress management, smoking reduction, and moderation of caffeine intake. Program evaluation included respondent characteristics, blood pressure screening results, and changes in participants’ knowledge before and after the educational intervention. Results: A total of 60 participants were involved, most of whom were aged 36–55 years (46.7%), female (60.0%), had secondary education (45.0%), and worked in the informal sector (50.0%). Screening results showed that 35.0% had normal blood pressure, while 30.0% were classified as prehypertensive, 21.7% as grade 1 hypertensive, and 13.3% as grade 2 hypertensive. Several behavioral risk factors were also identified, including physical inactivity (51.7%), routine coffee consumption (43.3%), and smoking (30.0%). Knowledge outcomes improved markedly after education, with the proportion of participants in the good knowledge category increasing from 26.7% before the intervention to 70.0% afterward. Conclusion: Blood pressure screening combined with lifestyle education was effective in improving early detection of hypertension and strengthening community knowledge regarding risk factors and preventive behaviors. Sustained implementation, broader community coverage, and medium-term behavioral monitoring are recommended to optimize the long-term impact of hypertension prevention programs.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent mental health has become a major public health concern, as academic demands, social pressure, and psychosocial development may increase vulnerability to stress and emotional problems. Community-based promotive and preventive strategies are therefore needed to strengthen adolescents’ mental health literacy and coping capacity. Objective: This study aimed to improve adolescent mental health through psychoeducation and peer support interventions. Methods: A community-based promotive–preventive program was conducted among 72 adolescents. The intervention combined interactive psychoeducation, small-group discussions, stress-coping simulations, role play, and the formation of peer support groups. Participants were purposively recruited from educational and youth community settings. Program evaluation was carried out using a pre–post assessment of mental health knowledge, participant observation, and feedback on the implementation process. Respondent characteristics, including age, sex, educational level, main activity, and prior exposure to mental health education, were also described. Results: Most participants were aged 16–18 years (50.0%), female (58.3%), enrolled in senior high school/vocational school (52.8%), and had never previously received mental health education (69.4%). Following the intervention, the proportion of adolescents with good mental health knowledge increased from 25.0% to 63.9%, while the proportion with poor knowledge declined from 36.1% to 8.3%. The program also facilitated the establishment of peer support groups that promoted emotional openness, constructive communication, and stronger psychological coping among participants. Conclusion: Psychoeducation integrated with peer support was effective in improving adolescent mental health literacy and strengthening psychosocial resilience. Sustainable implementation, wider target coverage, and longer-term monitoring are recommended to optimize the impact of community-based adolescent mental health programs.

Abstract

Background: The Healthy Village Program is a community-based health promotion initiative designed to strengthen clean and healthy living behaviors in rural communities through participatory empowerment strategies. Persistent challenges related to environmental sanitation, household waste management, and limited public engagement in healthy practices indicate the need for sustainable educational and preventive interventions. Objective: This community service project aimed to optimize the Healthy Village Program through health education and community empowerment to improve healthy living behaviors among rural residents. Methods: A promotive–preventive, community empowerment-based approach was employed. The intervention included health education sessions, training on healthy environmental management, demonstrations of clean and healthy living practices, and community mentoring. The program involved 80 village residents as participants. Evaluation was conducted using process, output, and outcome indicators, including participant characteristics and changes in healthy living behaviors before and after the intervention. The assessed behaviors comprised household waste management, handwashing with soap, use of proper sanitation, participation in environmental cleanliness activities, and implementation of healthy family practices. Results: Most participants were aged 36–55 years (47.5%), female (57.5%), had a secondary education level (42.5%), and were farmers or fishers (35.0%). Before the intervention, community participation in environmental activities was generally low, with 60.0% categorized as inactive. Following the intervention, marked improvements were observed across all behavioral indicators. Good household waste management increased from 35.0% to 70.0%, handwashing with soap from 45.0% to 85.0%, use of proper sanitation from 50.0% to 80.0%, participation in environmental cleanliness activities from 32.5% to 72.5%, and implementation of healthy family practices from 37.5% to 77.5%. Conclusion: Optimizing the Healthy Village Program through integrated health education and community empowerment was associated with improved healthy living behaviors in the rural community. Sustained implementation, regular behavioral monitoring, and multisectoral collaboration are recommended to strengthen long-term program sustainability.

Abstract

Background: Household emergencies are common events that require prompt and appropriate first-aid management to prevent complications and reduce the risk of delayed treatment. In many communities, health cadres play an important role as frontline community agents; however, limited knowledge and practical skills in first aid may weaken their preparedness to respond effectively to emergency situations at home. Objective: This community service program aimed to enhance the capacity of health cadres in providing first aid for household emergencies through an educational and simulation-based training approach. Methods: A promotive–preventive training design was implemented involving 50 community health cadres. The intervention consisted of interactive lectures, group discussions, practical demonstrations, case-based simulations of household emergencies, and mentoring sessions. Program evaluation focused on participant characteristics and changes in knowledge, practical skills, ability to recognize emergency conditions, basic resuscitation simulation skills, and overall preparedness before and after the training. Results: Most participants were aged 36–50 years (52.0%), female (76.0%), had a secondary education level (44.0%), had served as health cadres for 2–5 years (40.0%), and had never previously attended first-aid training (70.0%). After the intervention, marked improvements were observed across all competency indicators. The proportion of cadres with good first-aid knowledge increased from 32.0% to 84.0%; good minor wound management skills from 36.0% to 80.0%; ability to recognize emergency conditions from 40.0% to 86.0%; basic resuscitation simulation skills from 24.0% to 76.0%; and preparedness to manage household emergencies from 34.0% to 82.0%. Conclusion: Educational and simulation-based first-aid training effectively improved the knowledge, practical skills, and preparedness of community health cadres in responding to household emergencies. Strengthening cadre competency through continuous training, periodic monitoring, and multisectoral support is essential to sustain community readiness and improve family emergency response capacity.
