Abstract

Pandemic has had implications for all aspects of life in the world, including Indonesia. Under normal conditions, maternal and neonatal mortality is still a big challenge, especially during the current pandemic. Maternal and child health services are one of the services that are affected in terms of access and quality. The existence of restrictions on most routine services, including maternal and child health services, is feared to increase maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality, reduce maternal and child health, and interfere with child development. The team from FK UNSOED wants to take a role in the community to prevent an increase in infant and neonatal mortality in the midst of this pandemic situation. Through this activity, the community (especially pregnant women and mothers of toddlers) is expected to be able to strive for pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, and child development so that they remain optimal. Activities are held through the lay webinar method and mentoring of posyandu cadres. The target audience for the public webinar is the general public and partners. The enthusiasm of the participants can be seen from the number of participants, who come from various circles and regions. The Zoom meeting was attended by 235 participants from various regions in Java and outside Java (Bali, Pontianak, etc.). Participants came from various backgrounds: 45.3% midwives, 15.4% housewives, 11.3% lecturers/teachers, 4.5% doctors, 2.4% posyandu cadres, private employees, students, etc. Meetings and direct mentoring activities in Karangnanas village were carried out with limited participants, namely representatives of posyandu cadres and village midwives. More intensive efforts are needed to empower cadres in the midst of this pandemic.

Abstract

Posyandu merupakan wadah pemberdayaan masyarakat untuk mentransfer informasi dan keterampilan dari petugas kesehatan kepada masyarakat setempat dan antar sesama masyarakat. Kegiatan posyandu digerakkan oleh kader posyandu, warga terpilih yang rela mencurahkan tenaga & waktunya, serta paling memahami kondisi masyarakat setempat. Keberadaan kader sangat strategis sebagai ujung tombak dan garda terdepan pelayanan kesehatan masyarakat. Mengingat perann pentingnya, kader posyandu perlu memiliki pengetahuan dan keterampilan untuk mendukung perannya. Kader posyandu harus berbenah diri dan beradaptasi dengan perubahan agar tetap diminati oleh masyarakat. Kapasitas kader perlu ditingkatkan dan kualitas pelayanan perlu ditingkatkan. Kader perlu berinovasi dan berkreasi dalam penyelenggaraan posyandu agar tidak terjebak pada rutinitas yang menyebabkan masyarakat bosan datang ke posyandu karena kegiatannya hanya “menimbang berat badan dan tinggi badan”. Berbagai permasalahan di Posyandu yang sering muncul antara lain aspek kualitas dan keterampilan kader dan sarana prasarana posyandu. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan memberikan transfer pengetahuan dan pelatihan. Materi yang diberikan meliputi “Posyandu, peran, dan tugas kader”; “Buku KMS dan KIA”; “Sukses Menyusui Eksklusif”; dan “Masalah Diare pada Anak”. Pelatihan dilakukan dengan memberikan skenario kasus kemudian kader melakukan role play memberikan edukasi tentang kasus terkait. Kegiatan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi langkah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan kader yang mendukung perannya di Posyandu. Posyandu is a forum for community empowerment to transfer information and skills from health workers to the local community and between fellow communities. Posyandu activities are driven by posyandu cadres, selected citizens who are willing to put in their energy & time, and best understand the conditions of the local community. The existence of cadres is very strategic as the spearhead and the frontline of public health services. Given their important role, posyandu cadres need to have knowledge and skills to support their role. Posyandu cadres must improve themselves and adapt to changes to remain in demand by the community. Cadre capacity needs to be upgraded and service quality needs to be improved. Cadres need to innovate and be creative in organizing posyandu, so they don't get stuck in routines that cause people to get bored of coming to the Posyandu because their activities are only "weighing weight and height". Various problems in Posyandu that often arise include aspects of the quality and skills of cadres and posyandu infrastructure. This activity is carried out by providing knowledge transfer and training. The material provided includes “Posyandu, roles, and duties of cadres”; “KMS and KIA Books”; “Success for Exclusive Breastfeeding”; and “Diarrhea Problems in Children”. The training was carried out by providing case scenarios and then cadres did role-play providing education about related cases. This activity is expected to be a step to improve the knowledge and skills of cadres who support their roles in Posyandu.
