Bidi Hunga: Unsere Gesundheitskarten werden in die Konsultation aufgenommen
Am 24. Oktober nahmen rund 100 Patienten an unserem Beratungsdienst in der Nähe von Jakarta teil Bidi Hunga, drei Stunden von Jakarta entfernt Rumah Kambera. Zum ersten Mal nahmen unsere 16 Gesundheitskarten in Indonesischer Sprache an den Beratungen teil und halfen den Patienten dabei, praktische Maßnahmen zu Hause zu wählen, zusammen mit notwendigen Medikamenten und weiteren Behandlungen.
On 24 October, our team travelled three hours from Rumah Kambera to Bidi Hunga, where around one hundred patients of all ages attended a community care day. Our 16 illustrated health cards in Bahasa Indonesia were used in consultations for the first time.
With a health worker, patients could choose one or two practical actions: safer drinking water, handwashing with soap, less smoke exposure or appropriate wound care. The cards also explain warning signs and when to seek help. These actions complement necessary medicines and professional care.
The next step is to understand what families can realistically put into practice. A consultation ends, but its advice needs to remain useful at home. Our new field report describes this first use and the work needed to support continuity of care.
