Death caused by Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) remains high because people do not have sufficient knowledge in interpreting the perceived sign and symptoms. This has an impact on the lack of people’s attitudes and belief in seeking health services. Providing information is a key factor in increasing knowledge, attitude, and belief toward ACS.

This research implemented a pre-experimental design. There were 38 samples involved in this research, which were selected through purposive sampling.
