Abstract |
|
|
Communicable
diseases and children’s malnutrition are
of significant health
concerns in Indonesia. Some obstacles of overcoming these health
problems are ranging from the lack of health promotion and
disease prevention, inadequate early warning
system, delayed
case finding, and lack of collaboration between hospital and
Puskesmas in the continuation of
case management. These conditions may
keep reoccurring
due to the
lack of
documentation accuracy and prompt data report since the
documenting and reporting
processes are
handled manually by the Puskesmas officer altogether with the
community
health cadres. This
research is a preliminary study of the implementation of the
management
information
system in the hospital and Puskesmas. The research is designed
as a qualitative approach to explorate current situation and
incremental study. The current findings from these puskesmas and
hospitals demonstrate a need of an integrated nursing management
information system (NMIS). Therefore, the research has developed
a prototype NMIS of the Puskesmas and hospital.
Accordingly, the
research needs to be continued to the try
out and
implementation phase in the Puskesmas and the hospital setting.
Key words:
Early
warning, documentation, nursing, nursing management information
system.
