<![CDATA[The Smart Maternal Health Program was developed to enhance the capacity of Posyandu volunteers in providing digital-based education and monitoring for the health of pregnant and postpartum women in Ketimang Village. The program employed a participatory action approach, involving 20 Posyandu volunteers and 9 maternal participants, comprising 6 pregnant women and 3 postpartum women. Interventions included outreach, training on maternal health and digital literacy, implementation of the Smart Materna app, mentoring, and monitoring and evaluation. Evaluation results showed an increase in the average knowledge score of the target participants from 61.1 to 85.6 and in the digital skills of the volunteers from 58.0 to 86.5. A total of 90% of the volunteers achieved the “competent” category, the completeness of digital record-keeping reached 100%, and compliance with ANC/PNC visits increased from 66.7% to 88.9%. A total of 88.9% of families also accessed digital educational materials. Smart Maternal Health has the potential to support the empowerment of community health workers through the integration of education, record-keeping, and maternal monitoring in a more structured manner and can be developed as part of routine Posyandu services.]]>
