Peningkatan Mutu Kesehatan Masyarakat Dengan Aktivitas Edukasi Sikat Gigi, Pengecekan Tekanan Darah Dan Gula Darah Di Desa Plancungan, Kabupaten Ponorogo

Abstract

Health is one of the most important aspects of life, and it indirectly contributes to a healthy and happy existence. Health plays an important role in an area's progress, so the Universitas Muhammadiyah Ponorogo's Smart Village Community Service Program raises a work program for regular health checks (blood pressure and blood sugar checks) and education about toothbrushing and dental health, which is carried out at SD N 1 Plancungan. Counseling, toothbrushing media, and direct practice are the methods employed to carry out this dental education program. Meanwhile, health checks are conducted door to door or by approaching individuals' homes one at a time, with the elderly being given special attention. In this activity, higher public health awareness is expected, as well as positive and healthy life habits in daily activities in Plancungan Village.
