Abstract

Childbirth complications are the leading cause of maternal death. Data from the Ministry of Health's maternal death registration system, Maternal Perinatal Death Notification (MPDN), shows that the number of maternal deaths was 4,005 in 2022 and increased to 4,129 in 2023. Mothers often experience complications in childbirth, including cephalopelvic disproportion, amniotic fluid embolism, umbilical cord entanglement, fetal stress, bleeding, perinatal asphyxia, placental retention, and uterine atony. This is certainly a problem that requires the involvement of midwives as service providers to mothers and the community; for example, they must be trained in compliance with antenatal visits to reduce the risk of childbirth complications. This community service activity was carried out at the Bira Makassar Health Center on December 15, 2024. The main target of this activity was 12 mothers who made ANC visits. The purpose of this community service is so that mothers are more compliant in making ANC visits to prevent complications during the labor process, counseling participants can increase their knowledge and understand the counseling material that has been provided at the Bira Kapasa Health Center. Antenatal care is medical care provided to pregnant women before and during pregnancy with the aim of finding health problems of the mother and fetus, providing information about their health, and helping them prepare for childbirth. To reduce MMR and IMR, the government has made a policy to ensure that every mother has access to good and integrated antenatal health services. These services include 10 T (weighing, measuring height, blood pressure, checking the nutritional status of the uterine fundus, knowing the fetal heart rate and fetal presentation, providing tetanus vaccination, iron tablets, and laboratory tests for pregnant women). To reduce the risk of complications in childbirth, regular ANC visits are very important.

Abstract

Health education about types of contraceptives needs to be prioritized to support accessibility and diverse choices for Women of Childbearing Age. With adequate knowledge so that they can choose the right contraceptive according to their physical condition, it is useful for preventing unplanned pregnancies. Unplanned pregnancies can have serious impacts on both maternal and child health. Women who experience this tend to delay antenatal care, which can have an impact on the health of the baby and mother. In addition, it often leads to abortion, both spontaneous and planned, which increases the risk of medical complications and maternal death. This community service was carried out at PMB Umayyah on October 25, 2024. The target of this activity is Women of Childbearing Age who already have partners. The purpose of this community service is to increase the understanding of women of childbearing age regarding the concept of family planning and appropriate contraceptive methods and to empower and ensure that they can make the right decisions for their reproductive health.

Abstract

Poliomyelitis (polio) is a highly infectious disease caused by the poliovirus and can lead to permanent paralysis. To address outbreaks of type 2 poliovirus, the Indonesian government implemented the National Immunization Week (PIN) using the novel Oral Polio Vaccine type 2 (nOPV2). This initiative aims to increase polio immunization coverage, particularly among children aged 0–7 years, who are most vulnerable to the disease. This activity was conducted in two sub-districts—Karang Panjang and Amantelu—through school visits and local health posts (posyandu). Each vaccinated child’s immunization card was updated, and families received counseling regarding the importance of polio vaccination. The campaign in the working area of Karpan Health Center, Ambon, reached 1,204 children, achieving 77.8% coverage. Community participation, especially among parents, was enthusiastic. Future efforts are expected to increase coverage to 100% through continued public engagement and education.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern in Indonesia, particularly among household contacts of pulmonary TB patients. This community outreach initiative was conducted in Amantelu Subdistrict, Sirimau District, Ambon City, with the objective of reducing TB transmission through targeted interventions. The program involved door-to-door health education, distribution of educational materials (posters and leaflets), and sputum sample collection from household contacts. The educational materials emphasized Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) as a strategy to prevent TB transmission. Based on field data, 9 suspected TB cases were identified in December 2024, with a contact screening coverage rate of 52.5%. Key barriers included low public awareness and insufficient collaboration between health workers and families. The program demonstrated that continuous health education and proper environmental conditions, such as ventilation and hygiene, are critical in TB prevention. Strengthening interpersonal communication between healthcare providers and communities is essential for improving TB control outcomes, especially in the post-pandemic era.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) remain one of the most prevalent diseases in the work area of the Laimu Care Community Health Center. Many people tend to ignore early symptoms, contributing to the increased risk of transmission. Therefore, an effective health education strategy is essential to raise public awareness and promote preventive behaviors. This activity aimed to improve public knowledge and preventive behaviors related to ARI through structured health education in the Laimu Health Center area. The health education strategy was implemented with 20 respondents during working hours at the health center. Preparations included the development of educational media (leaflets), coordination with health center staff, and approval for activity implementation. The educational session consisted of lectures, interactive discussions, and Q&A on ARI symptoms, transmission, and prevention. The findings showed that respondents’ knowledge about ARI was generally good. Out of 10 questions, most participants answered correctly on nine items, with only one item (related to transmission sources) showing a lower correct response rate. The education program also reinforced the importance of clean and healthy lifestyle habits. According to health center data, ARI ranks third among the top ten diseases in the area. Health education through lectures and printed media has proven effective in improving public knowledge and awareness of ARI. Continued health promotion is recommended to further reduce the incidence and risk of ARI transmission within the community
