Abstract

Global scabies prevalence at religious boarding school (Pesantren) is still a big problem especially in developing countries. This article describes one of the processes of the problem-solving method through community service with the objectives that members of the community behave in a healthy way towards a scabies-free Pesantren. The target audience is a pesantren consisting of students and teaching staff in urban areas. Previous results showed that there was an increase scabies incident from the first scabies screening although immediately after the first screening the students treated with anti-scabies drugs. The level of students' knowledge about scabies was the majority in the good category. This study concludes that efforts to improve students to behave in a clean and healthy living will be a long journey, requiring ongoing assistance and cooperation of various parties.
