Abstract

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death globally and in Indonesia. Modifiable risk factors largely influence it through behavioral changes and increased public awareness. Lack of understanding of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention contributes to low levels of CVD prevention and early detection. Therefore, health education is a crucial strategy for CVD control in the community. Objective: This community service activity aims to increase public awareness of primary, secondary, and tertiary CVD prevention efforts through health education. Methods: The activity was conducted in the Wates Community Health Center (Puskesmas) working area in Gading Rejo, targeting the general public. The method used was interactive health education using presentations and leaflets. Evaluation was conducted by measuring participants' knowledge levels before and after the education using a questionnaire.
