Abstract

This service program aims to nurture health cadres in managing and running posyandu and posbindu. Community service methods are carried out by counseling, lectures, questions and answers, pre-test and post-test. The media used are televisions and laptops to display material in the form of power points. The stages of implementation carried out in this service are conducting a pre-test, then providing material and continued with a post test. The results of this community service activity have answered the problem of strengthening health cadres in managing, running posyandu and posbindu. This activity has been considered beneficial for cadres, although it has not been felt by many elderly and toddlers. This can be seen from the comparison of pre-test and post-test results which show an increase in cadre knowledge. Community service activities can then be continued with research first to find out the problems that exist in the community.

Abstract

Hypertension is a significant health problem worldwide, especially in Indonesia, where the prevalence of hypertension increases rapidly every year. Preliminary survey results in Jayagiri Village showed a problem of lack of knowledge and compliance with treatment among the population. Therefore, the Immanuel Institute of Health's community service team is conducting health care activities with the aim of increasing the knowledge of participants about hypertension and its impact. Blood pressure tests of 26 participants showed that 42.3% fall into the category of hypertension. Assessment results show that participants acquired significant knowledge after examination marked by an increase of 38.5% in the number of participants with a good knowledge category. Although Spearman's Rank bivariate test on the initial knowledge variable and blood pressure showed no correlation, increased knowledge is expected to help change towards positive behavior. From the results of this community service, it can be concluded that in achieving ideal blood pressure control, along with health education, additional interventions are needed, such as lifestyle changes and support for in the implementation of hypertension and self-efficacy.
