ABSTRAKCOVID-19 adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh jenis coronavirus yang baru ditemukan. Dalam penanggulan dan pencegahanya Kementrian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia menerapkan protokol kesehatan yang harus ditaati oleh masyarakat. Namun, tingkat kepatuhan masyarakat terhadap protokol kesehatan tersebut dirasa masih belum memuaskan. Tujuan dari kegiatan penyuluhan ini adalah agar masyarakat di wilayah kerja UPT Puskesmas Kampung Sawah dapat memahami pentingnya menerapkan serta mematuhi protokol kesehatan selama masa pandemi ini. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan di UPT Puskesmas Kampung Sawah. Kegiatan ini diawali dengan Tanya jawab seputar COVID-19 kemudian dilanjutkan dengan penyuluhan tentang protokol kesehatan dimasa pandemi COVID-19. Kegiatan ini merupakan langkah awal untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kepedulian masyarakat untuk mematuhi protokol kesehatan di era pandemi COVID-19. Hasil dari kegiatan ini adalah meningkatnya pengetahuan masyarakat sebelum dan sesudah pemberian edukasi sebesar 63,2 %.

Sehingga pada akhirnya akan menurunkan angka kejadian COVID-19 di Indonesia.ABSTRACKCOVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered type of coronavirus.

Service Activity

The Covid-19 pandemic impacts increasing psychological problems (anxiety disorders, depression, and insomnia) in the community and health workers. People experience clinical anxiety, so they are afraid to check their health to health services when they experience symptoms of illness. The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge and attitudes of health workers in providing good health education to the community so that people understand health behaviour and can make decisions based on the information that has been obtained. This education was conducted online for 300 health workers (Indonesian Radiographers/PARI), with the media zoom meeting. The implementation of this education begins with a pre-test, implementation of education, questions and answers, then a post-test. The results of the pre-test before the implementation of health education obtained a mean value of 36.50, a median of 30, and a standard deviation of 17,060, while the post-test results after the implementation of health education obtained a mean value of 93.00, a median of 100, and a standard deviation of 10.773. There is an increase in the knowledge of health education participants between before and after the health education is given. Recommendations from this community service activity are expected that health workers can continue to provide good health education to the community. The level of anxiety and stigma against Covid-19 decreases, and people feel calm and safe to check their health.

The Impact

With the increasing number of Covid-19 cases in Indonesia, including in Riau Province, it is necessary to implement Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB). PSBB is one way to reduce the impact of Covid-19. PSBB has currently been implemented in 10 regions in Indonesia as part of efforts to prevent the corona virus. The Central Government through the Ministry of Health has approved Pekanbaru to implement the PSBB. The main reason for implementing PSBB in dealing with the Covid-19 corona virus is because physical distancing, which has been carried out so far, is ineffective in the community. On that basis, the government strengthened the policy of physical restrictions for the community by implementing PSBB in the regions. It is necessary to do the socialization of PSBB and this Perwako, so that the public knows the Rules about PSBB. The service activity aims to provide guidance to the people of Pekanbaru City regarding Corona and PSBB, because Pekanbaru City is one of the cities that is a transit point. The implementation of activities to increase public knowledge about PSBB and Perwako was successful. This can be seen from changes in the behavior of people who were previously reluctant to wear masks, then have started wearing masks when they go out, as can be seen from the behavior of people who have avoided people's hassles and tried to keep their distance. The community also complies with large-scale social restrictions set by the government, this can be seen from the minimum community activity at night outside the home.
