Lack of clear information about the disease and its treatment often adds to anxiety and stress. Therefore, psychoeducation is a very important approach to help cancer patients and their families face this challenge. This study aims to develop effective and easily accessible psychoeducational media for cancer patients and their families in the community. The method used in this study is the Research and Development (R&amp;D) approach, which collects data through surveys and in-depth interviews with cancer patients, families, and health workers. The psychoeducational media developed include brochures, educational videos, and mobile applications that deliver cancer-related information, stress management, and emotional support. The trial results showed that the developed media were effective in increasing patient understanding of cancer, reducing anxiety, and strengthening emotional support from family and community. As many as 95% of respondents reported that this media provided clear and easy-to-understand information, while 90% felt more able to manage their stress and anxiety. These findings indicate the importance of a technology-based approach in psychoeducation, which provides medical information and supports the psychological aspects of patients and their families. This research is expected to be a model for the development of broader community-based health education media, with the hope of improving the quality of life of people living with cancer and their families and reducing the social stigma that often surrounds this disease.</p> Lukman Erie Sanjaya Cahya Rahmadania Julia Copyright (c) 2024 Lukman, Erie Sanjaya, Cahya Rahmadania, Julia https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-04-15 2024-04-15 4 2 10.56988/chiprof.v4i2.73 http://rumahprof.com/index.php/CHIPROF/article/view/74 <p>Cancer is a disease with profound physical, emotional, and economic impacts. One of the common challenges faced by cancer patients is malnutrition due to the side effects of treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Reduced appetite, nausea, and digestive issues often impede the recovery process. To address this, this study aims to develop papaya-based jelly candies that not only offer a delightful taste but also provide essential nutritional benefits for cancer patients. Papaya, rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and the enzyme papain, plays a vital role in boosting the immune system and improving digestion. In this study, laboratory experiments were conducted to create a jelly candy formula using natural ingredients that are both easy to consume and beneficial for cancer patients. A sensory test with 50 participants revealed that papaya jelly candy was well-received in terms of taste, texture, aroma, and packaging. 80% of respondents reported an increase in appetite after consuming the candy, and 45% experienced a boost in energy and stamina. Furthermore, the papaya gummies demonstrated positive effects on digestion and immune function, which are critical benefits for cancer patients. This study highlights the potential of papaya jelly candy as a healthy, practical, and enjoyable nutritional supplement for cancer patients. Moving forward, the development of this product is expected to support nutritional therapy for cancer patients and open new avenues for innovation in functional food products made from natural ingredients</p> Marlinda Demandia Yona Naila Zahirah Najwa Risha Larasati Copyright (c) 2025 Marlinda, Demandia Yona, Naila Zahirah, Najwa Risha Larasati https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2025-04-15 2025-04-15 4 2 10.56988/chiprof.v4i2.74
