<![CDATA[Acute respiratory infection (ARI) is one of the public health problems that is important to pay attention to. ARI is an infection that occurs in the respiratory tract, both upper and lower respiratory tract. This infection can cause symptoms of cough, runny nose, and fever. The problem that often arises in this ARI is ineffective airway clearance due to hypersecretion in the respiratory tract. Interventions are carried out to maintain a patent airway so that you can breathe spontaneously without difficulty, pain is reduced and oxygen needs are met. One of the efforts to overcome airway clearance is not effective because of nasal congestion can be done with simple steam therapy with eucalyptus oil. This community service aims to train the community's independence in dealing with health problems experienced, especially related to ARI with simple steam therapy with eucalyptus oil.
