Early public education about diabetes mellitus is an important element to avoid complications of this disease. In addition, the community has never carried out early detection and screening of blood sugar. This community service is aimed at implementing a community-based education program that facilitates the community in increasing knowledge about early detection and self-care for Diabetes Mellitus in Gantarang Keke Village, Bantaeng Regency.
