This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of nurses in the Emergency Room of Karawang Regional Hospital in performing emotional freedom technique (EFT) therapy to reduce the pain scale in dyspepsia patients in the Emergency Room of Karawang Regional Hospital. The implementation method used a lecture, demonstration, and simulation approach. The activity involved 20 participants consisting of implementing nurses and shift managers. Evaluation was carried out using pre-tests and post-tests to assess knowledge gains, as well as observation of skills during the simulation practice. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' knowledge from an average of 58% (pre-test) to 89% (post-test). In addition, 90% of participants were able to perform the EFT therapy simulation with the correct technique. Participants also demonstrated high enthusiasm throughout the series of activities. The socialization and training on EFT therapy proved effective in improving the knowledge and skills of nurses at Karawang Regional Hospital.
