Abstract

The increasing elderly population in Lumajang Regency, especially in Yosowilangun District, indicates progress in life expectancy but also brings challenges related to elderly care and dependency. To address these issues, a women's empowerment program was conducted in 2023 through the mentoring of Elderly Care Mothers, focusing on promoting elderly independence and caregiver support. In 2024, the initiative continued with the development of a Senior-Friendly Park equipped with ergonomic seating, sensory therapy, and recreational facilities under the concept of the Elderly Care Corner. This program aimed to improve the quality of life of older adults, enhance community involvement, and support caregiving efforts. The activities included park construction, public engagement, capacity-building for elderly care cadres, and the development of educational materials for caregivers. The outcomes demonstrated active participation of 75 elderly individuals within the first two months, a 32 percent increase in knowledge among 20 trained elderly care cadres, and reduced workload reported by 68 percent of caregivers. Improvements were also recorded in quality of life scores, particularly in life satisfaction and daily activities. Qualitative findings highlighted increased social interaction, motivation, and caregiver confidence. This initiative has encouraged replication in other villages and is expected to contribute positively to the well-being of the elderly population in Lumajang Regency.

Abstract

Nosocomial infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria, such as Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae producing Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL), present a major challenge in healthcare. These bacteria reduce the effectiveness of antibiotics, worsening patient conditions. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chlorhexidine in disinfecting medical devices contaminated with ESBL-producing bacteria. The methodology involves inoculating bacterial strains on plastic medical device surfaces and disinfecting them with chlorhexidine concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5% for 10 minutes, with control groups using sterile water and 70% alcohol. The results indicate that chlorhexidine inhibited the colonies of E. coli and K. pneumoniae effectively, with the highest inhibition occurring at 7.5% for E. coli and at 2.5% for K. pneumoniae. This indicates that these bacteria respond differently to higher levels of chlorhexidine. Through cell lysis and membrane disruption, chlorhexidine shows vast promise as a disinfectant for medical devices against healthcare-associated infections.
