description: An optimal nutritional status, whether deficient or excessive, can increase the risk of pregnancy complications such as anemia, preeclampsia, premature delivery, and low birth weight (LBW) infants. Monitoring the weight of pregnant women becomes one of the simple yet important indicators in early detection of pregnancy nutritional status conditions. This PkM activity aims to enhance the active role of pregnant women in independently monitoring weight changes at home with the support of healthcare professionals. The method of the activity involves providing educational media in the form of leaflets and the book "Monitor Your Weight Independently, Pregnant Mothers." Independent implementation is carried out by the mothers, who monitor their weight at home and record it regularly. Evaluation is conducted to improve the knowledge of pregnant women.

Many pregnant women do not yet understand the importance of self-monitoring their weight, including the ideal weight gain standards based on gestational age and the impact of weight discrepancies on the health of both the mother and the fetus.

description: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health problem in Indonesia, particularly in post-disaster areas where environmental changes may increase the risk of disease transmission by supporting the breeding of Aedes spp. mosquitoes. This community service program aimed to improve community knowledge and awareness regarding DHF prevention among residents of temporary shelters (huntara). The program was conducted on May 23, 2026, at the temporary shelter area within the working area of Koto Alam Primary Health Center, Agam Regency, West Sumatra, involving 27 participants consisting of shelter residents, community health volunteers, and community leaders. The activities included health education, interactive discussions, distribution of educational posters, and field observation to introduce potential breeding sites of Aedes spp. mosquitoes. The educational materials covered DHF risk factors, mosquito breeding sites, and the implementation of the 3M Plus strategy. The program was well received, as reflected by the active participation of the participants throughout the educational sessions. The main output of the program was an educational poster entitled “Preventing DHF in Post-Disaster Settings,” which can be used as a sustainable health promotion medium to support community-based DHF prevention efforts in temporary shelter environments

description: Optimal child growth and development is every parent's aspiration and a key national health indicator. Infant massage is a scientifically proven form of physical stimulation supporting child development; however, many mothers still delegate this practice to untrained traditional birth attendants. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of Dharmawanita Persatuan (DWP) BASARNAS Class A Padang mothers in performing correct massage techniques on toddlers. The activity was held on March 27, 2026 at the BASARNAS Padang Office Hall using interactive counseling and live demonstration with 37 participants; educational media included posters, leaflets, and PowerPoint presentations. Evaluation results showed that approximately 90% of participants correctly demonstrated massage steps following WHO and AAP guidelines. This activity successfully enhanced maternal understanding and encouraged behavioral shifts toward safer, evidence-based child care practices.
