Free health services in my village

In my village, free health services are one of the important programs that are carried out routinely to ensure that public health is maintained. One form of service provided is the integrated service post (posyandu) which is intended for toddlers, pregnant women and the elderly. This activity is carried out once a month, using village funds, so that all health service costs are provided free of charge without any charge whatsoever.

• The importance of integrated health posts for the community

Posyandu has a very important role in improving maternal and child health, as well as maintaining the health and activity of the elderly. With this health service, village communities have easier access to routine check-ups and health education, without having to go far to larger health facilities.

Through this program various examinations can be carried out such as

• head and arm circumference measurements to monitor toddler growth in the village

• height and weight measurements to determine child development and the health condition of the elderly

• immunization news for toddlers to protect them from various infectious diseases

• pregnancy checks for pregnant women to ensure optimal health of the mother and fetus

• provision of nutritional supplements and vitamins for pregnant women, toddlers, and the elderly so that their immune systems remain strong.

Health education provided by medical personnel, such as how to maintain a healthy diet and the importance of maintaining environmental cleanliness.

Community enthusiasm for integrated health post activities in the village

Every time the posyandu activity takes place, the community is very enthusiastic to come and participate. Mothers also bring their children to have their growth checked, while the elderly also come to get routine health checks. Warmth and togetherness are clearly visible in this activity, where medical personnel and posyandu cadres always provide services with full attention and concern for our village community.

data collection

In addition to health services, there are often Q&A discussion sessions regarding health problems experienced by residents. For example, pregnant women can contribute about good eating patterns during their pregnancy, and the elderly can also get information about how to maintain bone health and control blood pressure there for free.

Support from our village government
The continuity of this posyandu activity cannot be separated from the full support of the village government, which is committed to using village funds to improve community welfare. With a special budget, our village is able to provide better facilities, such as more complete health equipment, competent medical personnel and news about additional food for toddlers and the elderly.

atmosphere at the integrated health post

The free health service program through the integrated health post in my village is a real step in improving the quality of public health, especially for toddlers, pregnant women and the elderly. With activities like this, it is hoped that the village community will be more aware of the importance of maintaining health from an early age. Hopefully this program will continue to run well, and provide great benefits for all residents in our village, and be an example for other villages in building quality health services that are easily accessible to all groups.
