Abstract


Worm infections caused by intestinal nematodes are a global health problem, including in Indonesia. Preschool and school children are the most vulnerable groups to infection. Although not fatal, worm infections can lead to chronic infections and various health problems, such as low body weight, anemia, and decreased academic performance. Therefore, education about prevention and treatment, as well as food and environmental sanitation and hygiene, is crucial. The objective of this activity was to educate participants about worm infections and good sanitation and hygiene practices. Increasing knowledge about worm infections was achieved through providing counseling on prevention and treatment methods, as well as the importance of maintaining environmental cleanliness. The results of the education showed a significant increase in knowledge, as demonstrated by improved post-test results, which is expected to have an impact on reducing cases of worm infections.
