Usaha Kesehatan Sekolah (UKS) dalam Upaya Pencegahan Penyebaran COVID-19

The government's efforts to address learning loss concerns as a result of the COVID-19 pandemi on school-age children are with the gradual start of face-to-face learning. UKS is the implementation of Health Promoting School (HPS) in Indonesia which aims to mobilize and improve health campaigns and education, including efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Most of the UKS in West Java province is in a state of disrepair. In fact, UKS is the spearhead of community empowerment in the implementation of PHBS and is also the main key to preventing the spread of COVID-19 in the school environment. The purpose of this community service is to optimize the role of HPS during the COVID-19 pandemi. Community service program method developed by the team based on the modified "Common component of health education planning models"-WHO. The primary target of this activity is 24 elementary school students in grades 4, 5 and 6, as prospective HPS drivers. The result of this community service is that there is an increase in students' knowledge about the importance of UKS in schools.
