Vaccination can increase the body's immunity and fight infectious diseases. The level of health of the Indonesian people is decreasing due to the high infant mortality rate, and one effort to overcome this is with a vaccination program for babies and young children. But this program still faces a problem: opposition from parents. Some say that parents' reluctance to vaccinate is caused by people's misunderstanding about vaccines, lack of education, lack of knowledge about vaccines, and the distance between Posyandu Nilla A and Posyandu Nila B, some argue that it is the same whether they want to carry out immunization or not, they will still experience fever, some say the reason is related to religion. This intervention aims to provide education to mothers who do not have access to basic health services. The method used is a lecture method using booklet media which provides direct information to mothers of babies and young children through open interaction. The results of the intervention showed that 81.0% of mothers had good knowledge and 19.0% of mothers had poor knowledge. The conclusion from this intervention is that most mothers know about vaccinations for their children, and it is hoped that good knowledge can help support good vaccinations for their children

Background: Diabetes Mellitus is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by increased glucose levels in the blood. Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, controls glucose levels in the blood by regulating its production and storage (Smeltzer and Bare, 2019). Diabetes Mellitus occurs if the pancreas produces little or no insulin so that the sufferer is forever dependent on external insulin, or if the pancreas continues to produce insulin but the body develops immunity to its effects. Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage caused by increased blood glucose, which results in decreased blood circulation to cells and decreased nerve cell function. Initial symptoms are paresthesia (prickling, tingling or increased sensitivity) and burning (especially at night). As neuropathy increases, the feet feel numb (numb). Decreased sensitivity to pain and temperature puts neuropathy sufferers at risk of experiencing injury and infection in the feet without knowing it (Smeltzer and Bare, 2019). Foot exercises are activities or exercises carried out by Diabetes Mellitus patients which aim to improve blood circulation so that nutrition reaches the tissues more smoothly, strengthen small muscles, calf muscles and thigh muscles, and overcome the limited joint movement often experienced by Diabetes Mellitus sufferers. Method: The method for writing this final scientific paper is a literature review by examining journals that discuss the effect of diabetic foot exercises on reducing neuropathy symptoms in Diabetes Mellitus sufferers. Results: Based on the results of the implementation carried out by the author, namely encouraging patients to carry out routine extremity movements, namely by carrying out diabetes foot exercise therapy for three consecutive days from 09 to 11 January 2024, differences were found between conditions before and after implementation. The patient data before implementation was that the patient said both feet often felt tingling, the patient said both feet sometimes felt like they were numb, the results of scoring symptoms of diabetic neuropathy were 4, while the patient data after implementation was that the patient complained of tingling both times and feeling like numbness. begins to decrease and the results of scoring symptoms of diabetic neuropathy have decreased, namely to a value of 2, so it can be concluded that there is an influence of diabetic foot exercise therapy on reducing symptoms of diabetic neuropathy in diabetes mellitus sufferers. This is in accordance with the journal that the author studied, namely according to Febrina Angraini S, 2020.

Immunization is the process of administering vaccines aimed at providing protection or immunity against specific diseases. Immunization stimulates the body's immune system to recognize and fight disease infections more effectively, reducing the risk of individuals who have been vaccinated contracting the disease. Understanding the administration of immunization is crucial, especially in the current context where infections and diseases are highly dangerous and easily transmissible, such as tuberculosis, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, hepatitis, and others. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the mother's educational level and the completeness of basic immunization in the working area of ​​Sungai Tabuk 1 Community Health Center, Pemakuan Village, in the year 2023. The research design used is cross-sectional and was conducted in October 2023. The population consists of mothers with children aged ≥11, with a sample size of 112 respondents. Data were collected through the distribution of questionnaires and Maternal and Child Health Books (Buku KIA). The majority of mothers had a low level of education, amounting to 60 people with a percentage of 53.6%. Most respondents had complete basic immunization, totaling 77 respondents with a percentage of 68.8%. The Chi-Square Test analysis results show p = 0.000 < α (0.05), thus it is concluded that H0 is rejected, and Ha is accepted, indicating a relationship between the mother's educational level and the completeness of basic immunization in the working area of ​​Sungai Tabuk 1 Community Health Center, Pemakuan Village..

MP Giving breast milk too early at less than 6 months of age is an indicator that the mother has failed to breastfeed exclusively, which also has an impact on the rate of exclusive breastfeeding which is still low. Providing early MP-ASI is closely related to the decisions made by the mother. Giving MP-ASI too early can have an impact on the baby's health, including other diarrheal diseases. This is because the baby's digestive system is not ready to accept food other than breast milk, causing a reaction in the digestive system (Utami, 2019). Giving people MP-ASI too early is a difficult problem. Even though breast milk is known to have many advantages in terms of nutrition, immunity, economics, practicality and psychology, mothers' awareness of giving breast milk is still very low. The practice of giving MP-ASI too early, namely to babies less than 6 months old, is a serious concern because the digestive organs in the baby's body have not yet fully developed. This is caused by several reasons, including because mothers' knowledge about the importance of breastfeeding is still low, lack of family support for exclusive breastfeeding, and many mothers work outside the home (Yuliarti, 2019). An initial survey was conducted at the BPS Sulastri Clinic, Medan Marelan District, Medan City on mothers who had babies aged 6-12 months. Of the 12 mothers who conducted interviews, there were 7 mothers who gave MP-ASI to babies before the age of 6 months, and 5 mothers said that the baby has been given formula milk since birth because only a little breast milk comes out. From the results of this background, the author is interested in researching "The relationship between the level of maternal knowledge about complementary foods for breast milk and the provision of complementary foods for babies aged 6-12 months at the BPS Sulastri Clinic, Medan Marelan District, Medan City in 2023."
