BULIS APHSA BEM FKM UNAIR COLLABORATES WITH CADRES AND HEALTH WORKERS OF PENDOWO LIMO VILLAGE, KARANGBINANGUN, LAMONGAN

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) cases that have increased in the Lamongan area have attracted the attention of FKM UNAIR students. Based on this, Community Service activities were planned in detail and carried out in the BULIS (ISMKMI Month) 2022 work program by the APHSA Community Service Division of BEM FKM UNAIR 2022. One of the core activities of BULIS 2022 is conducting health checks for Pendowo Limo Village residents with the main target of the elderly. This health check consists of health screening, blood sugar check, blood pressure check, and eye examination. The Public Health Center for Villagers in Pendowo Limo (Poskesdes), health cadres, Village Midwives, local doctors, and KSR PMI UNAIR members also participated and collaborated in the activity. The people who attended also looked very enthusiastic about the free health check activities which were packaged in a community service event for 2 days and 1 night on October 21-22, 2022. This is evidenced by the large number of residents who attended, which amounted to approximately 100 people. This was welcomed by health workers in the local village because health data on the elderly could be obtained and become a reference for other activities.
