This community service was carried out in Bojo Village, Mallusetasi District, Barru Regency, South Celebes Province. Bojo Village is a foster village Politeknik Muhammadiyah Makassar. The majority of residents work as fishermen and farmers. Human factor studies in the home environment present many difficulties, resulting in limited knowledge of device use in this setting. Socialization of the use of medical devices aims to provide information as a form of dissemination in the form of education. Through a series of counseling, the initiative addressed providing and practicing knowledge about multi-check 3 in 1 and infrared lamp therapy use as home care medical devices. The target audience included village communities from various age groups and professions in Bojo Village, emphasizing the integration of theoretical knowledge with practical applications. The results indicated significant improvements in participants' knowledge and skills, highlighting the importance of such programs in fostering technological advancements in the healthcare sector to support self-health monitoring systems.
