Health Education & Training

Health service efforts in Indonesia can be divided into 4 approaches, namely: preventive, promotive, curative, and rehabilitative. To ensure that health services can obtain maximum results, it is necessary to increase public knowledge through health education. Health education according to Law No. 23 of 1992 aims to improve the ability of the community to maintain and improve health status; both physically, mentally and socially, so as to be economically and socially productive. The material contained in health education includes the eradication of infectious diseases, environmental sanitation, community nutrition, health services, and other health programs.
