Health behaviour in hypertension sufferers, a non-communicable disease (NCDs), becomes a serious health problem if it is not followed by good knowledge and treatment skills. Improvement of this condition requires several interventions that must be integrated but require scientific evidence. This research aims to prove scientifically and provide solutions to improve health behaviour problems at risk in society. We used some interventions that were applied and integrated with community health service based on a mutual agreement: health education, group therapy, and the promotion of physical exercise. The number of research subjects was 53 adults at risk of hypertension in Wedomartani Village, Sleman, Yogyakarta. Data collection was carried out in June-July 2022 and used interview and observation techniques using outcome indicators, knowledge level and health maintenance skills. The results showed an increase of 32.0% in knowledge and health maintenance of 36.0% for non-communicable disease prevention behaviour by making warm water therapy combined with basil leaf infusion to lower blood pressure. There is an increased understanding of the processing of meat ingredients and the calculation of healthy eating portions. Likewise, there was an increase in the subjects’ activity to participate in physical exercise activities for hypertension exercise. The result was a decreasing prevalence of hypertension -24.5%. This study concluded that the combination of the three intervention strategies that have been given could be a choice of solution to the problem of health behaviour in adults with a risk of hypertension.

Angkringan is included in the culinary options of Java, although it involves a simple food stall on the roadside using a wheelbarrow and covered with a plastic tarpaulin as the roof.However, food safety is one of the main factors that influence tourists in choosing Angkringan culinary spots. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the quality of food management by paying attention to health requirements including hygiene and sanitation procedures. This study aimed to analyze the differences in the food safety scores of Angkringan street vendors in Yogyakarta City before and after an intervention. We conducted a quantitative study with an experimental design from March to May 2021. We intervened with health education through pocketbooks in 49 communities of Angkringan street vendors in Yogyakarta tourism locations with a duration of one month. Data collection was conducted through the Food Safety Score Questionnaire while data analysis used Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. The majority of Angkringan street vendors had a category of Food Safety Score that was vulnerable but safe to consume before and after the pocketbook intervention. However, the influence of the intervention showed significant differences in research results (p-value < 0.05). This study concluded that health education interventions with pocketbooks among the Angkringan street vendors could positively affect food safety scores. We recommend that the government foster food hygiene education and monitoring of Angkringan street vendors, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
