Edukasi Tentang Keterampilan Dasar Kader dalam Pelayanan Integrasi Layanan Primer (ILP)

Abstract

Primary health care services in Indonesia are primarily delivered through Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) and their networks, including auxiliary health centers and community-based health efforts such as Posyandu. In recent years, the government has implemented a transformation of primary health services through the integration of primary health care services known as Primary Service Integration (ILP). However, the implementation of ILP at the Posyandu level still faces several challenges, including limited understanding of cadres regarding the concept and implementation of integrated services. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge of Posyandu cadres regarding the implementation of Primary Service Integration in their working areas. The method used in this activity was health education through counseling sessions involving Posyandu cadres in Bojongsari Village, Nyalindung District. Evaluation was carried out using pre-test and post-test questionnaires to measure the level of participants' knowledge before and after the counseling session. The activity involved 32 Posyandu cadres. The results showed that after the counseling activity, most participants experienced an increase in knowledge. A total of 30 participants (90.6%) had good knowledge after the activity, while only 2 participants (9.4%) still had limited knowledge. These results indicate that educational activities can effectively improve the understanding of Posyandu cadres regarding Primary Service Integration. Strengthening the knowledge of cadres is expected to support the successful implementation of integrated primary health services at the community level.
