Abstract

Background: Hypertension in the elderly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Hypertensive exercise and acupressure, as non-pharmacological interventions, are effective in reducing blood pressure. Hypertensive exercise works through vasodilation and increased fitness, while acupressure modulates the nervous system. Objective: This study aimed to analyze family nursing care in the elderly family development stage with the main problem of readiness for enhanced family coping in elderly patients with hypertension in Kembaran, Ambal. Methods: This study used a descriptive method with a case study approach. The research subjects were five elderly patients with hypertension with the main problem of readiness for enhanced family coping. The instruments used included nursing care formats, Nursing Kit, and SOPs for innovative actions of hypertensive exercise and acupressure therapy. Data analysis was performed descriptively and qualitatively. Data were presented in tables and narrative form. Results: The results of the assessment conducted on the families obtained data that one of the family members had hypertension. The priority nursing diagnosis in this case study was readiness for enhanced family coping in elderly patients with hypertension. The nursing interventions carried out were Family Coping Status and the application of hypertensive exercise therapy and acupressure therapy. The nursing implementation carried out was Family Coping Status and the application of hypertensive exercise therapy and acupressure therapy. The results of the innovative action of administering hypertensive exercise therapy and acupressure therapy showed a decrease in blood pressure, so it could be an option to improve family coping, especially for families with elderly members and hypertension. The administration of hypertensive exercise therapy and acupressure therapy was effective in reducing blood pressure. Conclusion: The application of nursing interventions focused on enhancing family coping, particularly through education and training in hypertensive exercise and acupressure therapy, effectively reduced blood pressure and has the potential to improve the family's ability to manage hypertension in the elderly. Recommendation: Families with elderly members with hypertension are advised to actively learn and apply hypertensive exercise and acupressure therapy regularly as part of hypertension management at home, while still consulting with healthcare professionals.
