Personal hygiene is personal hygiene and health which aims to prevent illness in oneself and others both physically and psychologically. The need for personal hygiene is very important and must be considered especially for the elderly because cleanliness will certainly affect health, comfort, safety and well-being. Elderly people in nursing homes (werdha homes) are a population that is vulnerable to low personal hygiene behavior. The form of community service activities carried out is by providing educational education. Educational activities are carried out for the elderly who live at UPT Yansos Deaf Speech and Elderly Pematangsiantar. The method used in this community service activity is lectures and discussions using leaflet poster media. The results of community service show that there is an increase in knowledge from before and after being given education, namely from knowledge with a less category of 7 people (46.7%) to good knowledge, namely 12 people (80%), which means that there is an increase in understanding and knowledge of the elderly after given education compared to before giving education.
