Community Service Model for 3kWp Solar Power Plant System Maintenance in the Sayung Coastal Pilgrimage Area
This community service activity aims to develop a maintenance model for a 3 kWp solar power plant (PLTS) system that is suitable for implementation in small-to-medium public service areas in Sayung, specifically the pilgrimage area of the Tomb of Sheikh Abdullah Mudzaki. The coastal setting of tidal flooding, abrasion, high humidity, and limited field access requires a more disciplined operation and maintenance (O&M) approach than typical inland locations. The methods used include synthesis of evidence from initial scans of Consensus and Scite, verification of official regional and national sources, and in-depth analysis of international standards and literature on PLTS O&M, performance monitoring, humidity/corrosion, and community-based electrification management. The synthesis results indicate that a 3 kW hybrid configuration with a 48 V battery is the most balanced option for locations requiring a steady supply when the grid is disrupted, while an on-grid system is cheaper but dependent on the grid, and an off-grid system is more independent but requires more stringent battery and charge controller design. The recommended maintenance program combines simple daily-weekly inspections by local operators, monthly-quarterly inspections by trained technicians, recording of logbook-based performance indicators, and community training emphasizing occupational safety, module cleaning, connection checks, and disturbance response. This article presents a draft maintenance schedule, training curriculum, cost estimates, monitoring-evaluation indicators, and coastal risk mitigation strategies that are ready to be adapted into a community service journal manuscript.

Strengthening the Capacity of PMI Volunteers Through Family Care Training and Field Practice in Nursing Homes
The capacity building program for Indonesian Red Cross Volunteers through integrated family care training with field practice is crucial. The background of this activity is based on the increasing need for elderly health services that require the support of skilled caregivers, while the capacity of volunteers to provide basic assistance in family care is still limited. Therefore, the role of Indonesian Red Cross Volunteers as Cargivers is very important in the quality of life of the elderly, especially in improving physical and psychosocial needs, especially in conditions of dementia. (Syifak, S et al., 2022). The implementation method includes the preparation stage, training (delivery of family care and basic assistance materials), and direct practice in nursing homes. Evaluation was carried out using a pre-test and post-test approach as well as observation of participant skills during field practice. Practice-based training was chosen because it has been proven effective in improving the competence and confidence of caregivers in providing care (Amin Y, et al. 2025). The results of the activity show how the knowledge and skills of volunteers in carrying out basic assistance and elderly care have increased. Field practice provides real experience that strengthens participants' application skills in real situations. Thus, this activity is effective in increasing the capacity of PMI volunteers in family care. Similar programs need to be developed sustainably to improve the quality of community-based healthcare services, particularly for the elderly.
