The oral health of the Indonesian people still requires serious attention from healthcare professionals, both doctors and dental nurses. This is evident in the fact that 90% of the Indonesian population still suffers from dental and oral diseases. The most common oral diseases in Indonesia are periodontal disease and dental caries (Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, 2014, Cit. Tunggadewi, G., 2015).

A survey of lecturers in the Dental Nursing Department on March 29, 2021, at the Raudhatul Nasyi'in Islamic Boarding School in Banjarbaru, found an average caries rate of 4.1, categorized as high.

The goal of this Community Service Program, through partnerships, is to improve tooth brushing behavior and increase knowledge about dental health, so that the community is willing and able to practice good oral health practices. This also contributes to reducing the rate of dental caries at the Raudhatul Nasyi'in Islamic Boarding School in Banjarbaru.

The results achieved during the community service activities, for counseling, were attended by all students and students actively participated during the counseling, resulting in an increase in knowledge. Toothbrushing sessions were held four times. During the activity, counseling was provided on proper tooth brushing techniques. The core activity of this community service was achieving the target (60%) for caries repair or caries fillings, conducted inside the building and outside the building at the dental clinic for 18 days with 5 students visiting each time. Of the 120 students, 90 students (75%) participated.

The conclusion is that knowledge about dental and oral health has increased from 50% to 90%. This shows an improvement in gingivitis cases, with the target of 60% achieved. In caries cases, the target of 75.8% was exceeded. It is recommended that the nearest dental and oral health officer collaborate with the Pospen (Education Post) to provide programmed counseling to further improve the dental and oral health of students at the Raudhatun Nasyi'in Pospen. For teeth with caries, treatment should be taken at the nearest Community Health Center.

Anemia in adolescent girls is an important public health problem with both short- and long-term consequences. The main causes of anemia in this group are inadequate nutritional intake, particularly protein and iron, as well as blood loss during menstruation. This condition not only reduces concentration and productivity but also affects reproductive readiness. If not addressed early, adolescent girls with anemia are at risk of giving birth to infants with low birth weight, undernutrition, and even stunting. This community service program aimed to empower adolescent girls and village cadres through the utilization of local food made from breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) as an effort to prevent anemia. The implementation methods included: (1) health education on anemia in adolescent girls and the importance of balanced nutrition; (2) training on breadfruit-based food processing, particularly the innovation of breadfruit risoles; (3) establishment of the community group “Pioneers of Anemia-Free Adolescent Girls” as agents of program sustainability; and (4) evaluation of participants’ knowledge using pre-test and post-test instruments.The results showed a 45% increase in participants’ knowledge after the training sessions, along with high enthusiasm during the breadfruit risoles preparation practice. The local food product received positive responses and was considered to have potential as a nutritious food alternative as well as a household business opportunity. The establishment of a community group was also a significant step in ensuring the sustainability of adolescent health education programs. In conclusion, this activity contributes to strengthening the preparedness of adolescent girls as future mothers, thereby supporting the birth of a stunting-free generation through nutrition interventions based on local food potential.

2024-11-18T07:45:41+07:00

Pulmonary TB is still a disease that is often found in the Cempaka Banjarbaru Community Health Center. Based on data from the Cempaka Health Center for January - December 2022, there are 36 tuberculosis sufferers who are still actively seeking treatment. Treatment of pulmonary TB with anti-tuberculosis drugs (OAT) takes several months so it is prone to causing side effects in sufferers. To minimize the side effects of using OAT while increasing the patient's immune system, it is necessary to consume natural ingredients (moringa, meniran and ginger) which have minimal side effects and act as immunomodulators. The aim of the activity is to increase participants' knowledge about tuberculosis and how it is transmitted as well as how to use herbal plants as immunomodulators to minimize side effects due to the use of OAT. The method used in this activity is filling out a questionnaire sheet (pretest) followed by a presentation of the material. Before the posttest was carried out, the participants were given training on how to process herbal drinks from 3 herbal ingredients, namely Moringa leaves, meniran and ginger (Kemeja) which were made in powder form for 2 hours and continued with filling out a questionnaire sheet (posttest). The results of community service can be seen based on the questionnaire sheet which shows an increase in participants' knowledge about pulmonary TB disease by 10% and behavior in preventing pulmonary TB by 10% and participants were able to make immunomodulatory drinks in the form of powder such as Kemeja (moringa, meniran, ginger). Based on the results of evaluation and monitoring, sufferers stated that their appetite increased after drinking SHIRT tea powder. It is hoped that the increase in appetite can increase the sufferer's immune system so that they can suppress the side effects of the OAT drugs they consume.

Visually impaired children are individuals who experience abnormalities in their sense of sight, causing their eyes to function abnormally. These children are among those with special needs who require specific services, both in education and health. To address this issue, the application of a Braille dental health pocketbook serves as an educational medium and an assistive tool to develop toothbrushing skills among visually impaired children.

Health Transformation In the context of health system transformation, the first pillar often relates to efforts to improve access to and coverage of quality health services. The implementation of the Braille dental health pocketbook as a media-based assistive tool for toothbrushing skills in visually impaired children can help increase public access to health information and services related to oral health issues, supporting the mission of Indonesia Free from Dental Caries by 2030. Through this educational initiative, visually impaired children can more easily and effectively learn how to maintain oral hygiene and practice proper toothbrushing techniques.

The use of the Braille dental health pocketbook as an assistive media tool for developing toothbrushing skills among visually impaired children also encourages active participation in addressing oral health problems. Through interactive approaches or platforms, visually impaired children can engage in monitoring their oral hygiene, sharing experiences, and exchanging knowledge. This helps to increase awareness of the importance of their active role in maintaining oral and dental health.

By utilizing the Braille dental health pocketbook as a media-based assistive tool for toothbrushing skills among visually impaired children, it is possible to optimize resource use within the health system. The use of interactive media and models can enhance the efficiency of oral health awareness. Furthermore, this model can be used to improve the planning and management of oral health programs for children with special needs more effectively.

Background: Early marriage has detrimental effects, including poverty, limited access to education, and

domestic violence, which can result in physical and mental trauma and perpetuate intergenerational poverty.

Addressing early marriage is crucial as it leads to poverty, isolation, and reduced opportunities for children. A

strong commitment to reducing early marriage rates is essential to ensure children grow optimally, receive

proper education, and achieve their dreams. To reduce early marriage rates, particularly in Astambul

Subdistrict, South Kalimantan, the Midwifery Department of Poltekkes Kemenkes Banjarmasin, a health

educational institution, supports government programs through community service activities.

Maturation of Marriage Age program and establish a youth forum focused on the importance of marriage age

maturity in Kelampaian Tengah Village, Astambul Subdistrict, Banjar Regency.

Methods: This community service activity was implemented through a health promotion program involving

health education about the Maturation of Marriage Age. The steps included preparation, implementation,

monitoring, and evaluation. The participants comprised 33 adolescents, 4 health cadres, and 1 midwife from

the village.

Results: Activity evaluation revealed a significant improvement in adolescents' knowledge regarding the

importance of marriage-age maturity. Before the intervention, 17 participants (51.5%) had limited

knowledge, with none possessing good knowledge. After the intervention, 20 participants (60.6%)

demonstrated good knowledge, and a youth forum for marriage-age maturity awareness was established.

Conclusion: This increase in knowledge is expected to contribute to marriage-age maturity, with the youth

forum serving as a platform for discussion and awareness among adolescents.
