Background: Using antibiotics for self-medication increases the risk of developing resistance, which raises morbidity and mortality. Communities are crucial in stopping and limiting the spread of antibiotic resistance (AMR). 80% of the residents in Bengkel Village work as farmers. The agrarian community in Bengkel Village has highly magnificent natural potential as well as agricultural and cultural activities that are still well maintained. It also has the largest “subak” land in Kediri Regency.
Purpose: This community service is to educate the general population about the importance of limiting the use of antibiotic self-medication, which is essential for combating AMR.
Methods: The Clinical Pharmacy Study Program, the Indonesian Pharmacists Association Bali Province, and the One Health Collaborating Center collaborated on this community service. On July 17, 2022, in Bengkel Village-Tabanan, a health counseling intervention was done with housewives who are participants in the Family Welfare Empowerment.
Results: Over 50 people from the Chairman, Management, and Family Welfare Empowerment cadres in Bengkel Village made up the community component of this health counseling. The participants' enthusiasm for watching the event and engaging with the resource people is proof that the activity went off without a hitch. By providing more counseling, activities are intended to be sustained (stage 2).
Conclusion: Community service in Bengkel Village-Tabanan is expected to provide knowledge about health and the importance of AMR awareness. For the continuation of this activity, it is recommended to conduct outreach to other community groups such as farmers, breeders, and young age groups.
