Abstract

Lumbar spondylosis is a degenerative spinal disorder that can cause lower back pain, limited mobility, and reduced functional ability, all of which carry a risk of disability. Efforts to prevent disability should be undertaken through health education and increased patient involvement in rehabilitation programs. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and understanding of patients and their families regarding disability prevention in patients with lumbar spondylosis through health education and a Home Exercise Program (HEP). The activity was conducted on June 25, 2026, at the Medical Rehabilitation Unit of Simpang Lima Gumul Regional General Hospital in Kediri and involved approximately 20 participants, consisting of patients with lumbar spondylosis and their accompanying family members The methods included interactive health education, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and demonstrations of simple exercises supported by leaflets and X-banners. Evaluation was conducted qualitatively through participant engagement, question-and-answer sessions, and oral responses regarding the educational material. The results showed that participants actively participated in discussions, asked questions related to home exercises and disability prevention, and were able to restate several key points of the material. Because no standardized pre-test and post-test instruments were used, changes in participants’ knowledge could not be quantitatively measured. Practically, health education combined with HEP demonstrations may support patients and families in understanding disability prevention and maintaining rehabilitation activities at home.
