The product produced from this research is a healthy pocket book for the elderly that can be used as a guide for the elderly in maintaining health to avoid transmission of Covid-19. To find out the effectiveness of the pocket book to be produced, measurements were made of the knowledge of the elderly before and after being given the pocket book to 50 respondents using incidental sampling, namely the elderly who were found when the elderly visited the Rumah Tiga Health Center.
