<![CDATA[Abstrak: Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang rawan terhadap bencana banjir yang sangat berisiko mengakibatkan kerugian materi hingga korban jiwa. Berdasarkan pengamatan selama ini, kita lebih banyak melakukan kegiatan pasca bencana (post event) berupa emergency response dan recovery daripada kegiatan sebelum bencana berupa disaster reduction atau mitigasi dan disaster preparedness. Padahal, apabila kita memiliki sedikit perhatian terhadap kegiatan-kegiatan sebelum bencana, kita dapat mereduksi potensi bahaya/kerugian (damages) yang mungkin timbul ketika terjadi bencana banjir. Tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesiapsiagaan masyarakat dalam menghadapi bencana banjir melalui edukasi dan simulasi menggunakan Tabletop Disaster Exercise (TDE). Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Batua Makassar dengan jumlah peserta 30 masyarakat di RW 10, Kel Batua, Kec Manggala Makassar. Kegiatan yang dilakukan yaitu edukasi berupa penyuluan kesehatan tentang bencana banjir dan simulasi bencana banjir menggunakan table top disaster. Untuk mengevaluasi keberhasilan kegiatan ini, maka tim membagikan angket untuk menilai kesiapsiagaan perserta terhadap bencana banjir. Kegiatan ini terlaksana dengan baik dan lancar serta telah terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan dan kesiapsiagaan masyarakat yaitu 30 (100%) peserta berada dalam kategori baik dalam menghadapi bencana banjir sehingga diharapkan masyarakat dapat meminimalisir dampak dan kerugian yang ditimbulkan oleh bencana banjir.Abstract: Indonesia is one of the countries that are prone to flood disasters that are very risky to cause material losses to fatalities. Based on observations so far, we do more post-disaster activities (post events) in the form of emergency response and recovery than activities before disasters in the form of disaster reduction or mitigation and disaster preparedness. In fact, if we have more attention to activities before the disaster, we can reduce the potential danger / loss (damages) that may arise when a flood disaster occurs. The purpose of this activity is to increase knowledge and preparedness in the face of flood disasters through education and simulation using Tabletop Disaster Exercise (TDE). This activity was held in the working area of the “Puskesmas” Batua Makassar with a total of 30 participants in RW 10, District Manggala, Makassar City. The activities carried out are education in the form of health counseling about flood disasters and simulation of flood disasters using table top disasters. To evaluate the success of this activity, the team distributed questionnaires to assess the preparedness of participants for flood disasters. This activity is carried out well and smoothly and there has been an increase in public knowledge and preparedness, namely 30 (100%) participants are in the good category in dealing with flood disasters so that it is hoped that the community can minimize the impact and losses caused by flood disasters.]]>
