Purpose: This community service aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of students from SMK PP Wiyata Bakti Dau in handling and restraining cats (Felis catus) and rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) safely and in accordance with animal welfare principles.

Research methodology: The activity was conducted at SMK Pertanian Pembangunan Wiyata Bakti Dau, Malang Regency. Learning methods included a pre-test, theoretical presentation using PowerPoint, posters, and leaflets, live demonstrations, hands-on practice by students, a post-test, and a survey using the Indeks Kepuasan Masyarakat (IKM). Data were analyzed descriptively to determine the percentage increase in knowledge and satisfaction.

Results: The average score increased from 68.6% (pre-test) to 97.3% (post-test), showing a 28.7% improvement. The IKM result reached an average score of 89.16%, categorized as “Excellent” (A) according to the Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform standards. Students expressed high satisfaction with the balance of theory and practice, and practical sessions were considered essential for reinforcing understanding.

Conclusions: The program effectively enhanced students’ understanding and practical skills in animal handling and restraint. It is recommended to continue similar training with additional topics on animal health to further support student readiness for future professional practice.

Limitations: The study was limited to a short duration and a small group of students from one school, without long-term evaluation of knowledge or skill retention.

Contributions: This study contributes to veterinary education by enhancing students’ skills in safe animal handling and restraint. It serves as a model for similar training in other schools to promote animal welfare and practical learning.

Pemberdayaan Masyarakat melalui Pelatihan Partisipatif Olahan Pisang Khas Lampung

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0700

Purpose: The training program on banana processing conducted in Sumber Agung Village, Kemiling District, Bandar Lampung City, aims to enhance the added value of local agricultural commodities, particularly bananas, which are the village’s leading produce. Through this activity, the community is empowered to process bananas into various high–economic–value products such as banana pies, banana cakes, banana chips, and banana jam. With product diversification, it is expected that bananas will no longer be sold merely in their raw form at low prices but transformed into distinctive local souvenirs that can compete in both local and regional markets.

Methodology/approach: This study employs a participatory approach that directly involves the community in all stages of the training process—from planning and implementation to evaluation. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with participants, observations of production processes, and surveys of banana plantations and yields.

Results/findings: The results indicate that the training successfully improved community skills, created new business opportunities, and increased household income among participants.

Conclusions: The program effectively enhanced community empowerment through skill development and value-added production of local commodities, showing significant potential for economic improvement.

Limitations: Several challenges remain, including limited business capital, difficulties in obtaining additional raw materials, and a lack of marketing skills.

Contributions: This program has strong potential to serve as a model for local economic empowerment that can be replicated in other villages with similar agricultural commodities.

Implementasi Program GERMAS untuk Meningkatkan Personal Hygiene dan PHBS Lansia Secara Berkelanjutan

Purpose: This study aimed to improve personal hygiene practices and Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS) among elderly individuals through a structured health education program integrated with Indonesia’s national Gerakan Masyarakat Hidup Sehat (GERMAS). The program focused on increasing awareness, encouraging healthy daily habits, and supporting independence among older adults.

Methodology/Approach: The program was implemented in Sungai Kamuyang Village, West Sumatra, using a community-based home-visit approach. Health education was delivered through brief counseling and demonstrations of personal hygiene practices, accompanied by the distribution of hygiene kits. Observations of household sanitation conditions and daily hygiene routines were conducted, and data were collected through short interviews and field notes with assistance from local health cadres.

Results/Findings: The intervention resulted in positive behavioral changes. Approximately 85% of participants demonstrated improved understanding of PHBS principles, 80% practiced regular personal hygiene routines, and 60% engaged in light physical activity. However, only 40% reported routine health check-ups, and nearly half of the households still lacked adequate sanitation facilities, indicating ongoing environmental and service-related barriers.

Conclusions: The program effectively improved elderly hygiene practices and PHBS awareness, though barriers like sanitation and health check-ups remain. Further research is needed.

Limitations: The study was limited by a small sample size and a short implementation period, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings.

Contributions: This study provides practical evidence for public health practitioners, community health workers, and policymakers on the effectiveness of home-based education integrated with GERMAS in promoting healthy behaviors among the elderly.
