Hypertension is often found in primary health care facilities and if not followedup can develop into a more serious disease such as myocardial infarction, stroke,
kidney failure and can cause death. Health services for non-communicable
diseases such as hypertension depend not only on diagnoses and medical
interventions but also require environmental support and collaboration between
health workers and patients and their families. The effort to fulfill family health
care tasks in the current era of modernization is one of them by utilizing
information and communication technology which is the media to bridge
communication between health workers and the community. The purpose of this
study was to determine the family support of hypertensive patients. The number
of samples in this study was 100 families of hypertensive patients. Sampling
using purposive sampling technique. This research was conducted in the
Sukoharjo Community Health Center area. Analysis of this study using univariate
and frequency distribution. The results showed that the average family support
for hypertensive patients was emotional support of 14.62, award support 20.03,
instrumental support 25.67 and informational support 14.57. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the majority of family support for
hypertensive patients is in a fairly good category so it needs to be increased again to carry out family empowerment activities. The results of this study can be used as a reference in determining appropriate interventions in increasing family support for hypertensive patients.
