Abstract Although benefits of service-learning and interprofessional education (IPE) have been separately well documented to be effective for students in gerontology and geriatrics courses, few curricula appear to integrate both aspects into a single course for undergraduate students in public health. This poster discusses the development and implementation of a service-learning health promotion program utilizing IPE embedded within two courses in two different departments at a mid-sized university. Students worked in interdisciplinary teams and acquired interprofessional educational learning outcomes while they engaged in their first experiences working with diverse older adults at a low-income, independent-living housing community. Twenty-five students (N=25) each team-taught 2 sessions on nutrition, physical activity, and stress reduction techniques in a 10-week program. Qualitative and quantitative results are presented which demonstrate significant learning outcomes from the students about the health needs of the aging population and increased comfort in working with older adults. Older participants in the program also reported positive health and psychological outcomes from their participation. Limitations, challenges, and next steps are also presented.

BACKGROUND: The YouTube channel is a promising platform to deliver health promotions because it can reach a large population. However, few studies report experiences delivering health promotion on the YouTube channel especially in Low-and-Middle-Income Countries. In 2017, we established a digital health promotion program named INAHEALTH YouTube channel. AIM: We aim to report the experiences and lessons learned on how to develop a health promotion program using the YouTube platform. METHODS: The steps of developing a health promotion program using a YouTube channel started from assessment, designing working system, piloting the system, implementing, evaluating, and revising the system regularly. The performance of the INAHEALTH YouTube channel and its videos needs regular monitoring not only by considering the appropriateness of health message to the target audience but also how to engage the audience. RESULTS: There are 16 playlists with 399 videos, about 100K subscribers per June 30, 2021. The characters of viewers are 18–34 year (55.3%), more men (54.8%) and comes from Indonesia (93.4%). The word cloud analysis, found that audience were concerned about their/their family sickness and looking for information. The traffic sources of INAHEALTH channel were dominated by suggested video (46.7%). However, the engagement of the videos was still low. Some recommendations to develop a health promotion channel on YouTube: Understanding the audience, delivering video content suitable to the audience, encouraging enjoyable interactions, and managing the online experience. CONCLUSIONS: Health organizations can use these experiences of developing and improving the performance of YouTube channel promotions in delivering health information.
