Anti-Mosquito Insecticide Products

Surabaya, 28 November 2019 - A health promotion about "Anti-mosquito insecticide products" was carried out which became a part of the Community Pharmacy practicum course at the Health Service Center (PLK) in campus B UNAIR. This activity was an annual agenda commonly called "Pharmaday". This activity was a form of education to the community in the campus environment. Our group pharmaday was held from day to afternoon, precisely at 13:00-16:00. The material was presented using the brochure media, which contained various anti-mosquito insecticides and tips on choosing mosquito coils (correctly choosing, using, storing, and disposing of the anti-mosquito products).

 

We started this activity with patients who had finished the examination, then we approached the patients and invite them to our booth and filled in the attendance list. Then we immediately gave the patients the education that is in accordance with our topic. After that, we gave the patients an opportunity to ask questions about our topic. At the end of the session, we gave a questionnaire about the satisfaction with health promotion that we gave then we also shared gifts to patients who were willing to spend their time listening to our health promotion.

 

Group A-5 Pharmaday went well. However, the Health Service Center (PLK) in campus B was cosidered quiet. Thus, our group educated several public places around the Health Service Center (PLK). From this health promotion, it is expected that in the future it will benefit the community and can increase public knowledge, especially in terms of anti-mosquito insecticides. The advice given to our group is to conduct health promotion routinely, because the community feels very useful as this program increases knowledge.
