Metode: Penulisan ilmiah ini dilakukan dengan melakukan analisa akademik dari aspek berbagai sumber rujukan relevan sehingga menemukan makna teoritis baru dalam rangka menjawab tantangan yang terjadi di masyarakat. 

Hasil: Pendidikan kesehatan berbasis karakter dapat diajarkan melalui metode internalisasi dengan mengedepankan pada peneladanan, pembiasaan, penegakan peraturan, dan pemotivasian. Dengan demikian maka pendidikan kesehatan berbasis karakter dapat dilakukan secara intrakurikuler maupun ekstrakurikuler. Intrakurikuler terintegrasi ke dalam matapelajaran, sedangkan ekstrakurikuler dilakukan di luar jam pelajaran, dimana kesemuanya dapat dilakukan melalui keteladanan, penanaman kedisiplinan, pembiasaan, penciptaan suasana kondusif dan integrasi-internalisasi. Disamping itu, kolaborasi komunikasi antara orangtua dan dosen kepada anak atau mahasiswa akan membawa mahasiswa pada tumbuh kembangnya karakter yang baik dan kuat akan pentingnya hidup sehat dan berkehidupan sehat yang akan menunjang pencapaian masa depan yang baik.
