This community service activity aimed to improve public understanding and attitudes toward the prevention of hypertension. Based on the findings, cases of hypertension remain relatively high among residents. Information gathered also indicated that the community's knowledge about hypertension is still relatively low. Education was provided through several stages, starting with planning and preparation, which included obtaining permissions and organizing target participants. This was followed by the implementation phase, where educational materials were delivered and concluded with an evaluation session. The program's success was measured by increased participants' knowledge about hypertension after the activity. The results showed an improvement in public understanding of hypertension. Therefore, it is expected that healthcare workers and local health centers will continue to support the community through regular education on hypertension and by paying close attention to their health status. Preventive efforts can begin by avoiding various risk factors and routinely checking blood pressure, especially considering that hypertension is one of the most prevalent non-communicable diseases (NCDs) managed at the Soropia Health Center.
Abstrak
Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini ditujukan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan sikap masyarakat dalam upaya pencegahan penyakit hipertensi. Berdasarkan hasil identifikasi data di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Soropia, Kabupaten Konaw, ada lima besar penyakit yang tercatat, hipertensi menempati urutan teratas, diikuti oleh rematik, gastritis, dan diabetes. Tingginya prevalensi hipertensi menunjukkan perlunya perhatian lebih serta upaya edukasi kesehatan yang konsisten dan berkelanjutan. Edukasi diberikan melalui beberapa tahapan, dimulai dari perencanaan dan persiapan yang mencakup perolehan izin dan pengorganisasian peserta sasaran, dilanjutkan dengan tahap pelaksanaan berupa penyampaian materi, serta ditutup dengan sesi penilaian. Keberhasilan program ini dievaluasi melalui peningkatan pengetahuan peserta mengenai hipertensi (peningkatan 76,55%) dari rerata 50,00 menjadi 88,28 setelah kegiatan berlangsung. Hasil dari kegiatan ini menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai penyakit hipertensi. Oleh karena itu, diharapkan tenaga kesehatan dan pihak Puskesmas dapat terus memberikan dukungan melalui edukasi yang berkelanjutan terkait hipertensi serta memantau kondisi kesehatan warga. Langkah pencegahan dapat dilakukan dengan menghindari faktor-faktor risiko serta membiasakan diri untuk rutin memeriksa tekanan darah, mengingat hipertensi merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular (PTM) yang paling sering ditangani di Puskesmas Soropia.
