Day 2 of PMC training blends medical skills, prevention tools, and national partnerships in East Sumba
From CPR and blood tests to new prevention posters, Kawan Sehat agents gain tools for saving lives
Day 2 of the Primary Medical Care (PMC) training at Rumah Kambera combined learning, practical skill-building, and meaningful collaborations. Our team of 21 Kawan Sehat Agents de santĂ© continued their mission to become proficient health responders in villages where doctors are milesâ or even daysâaway.
The day started with the presentation of four new prevention posters addressing vital topics: alcohol abuse, gestion des déchets, et dangers of passive smoking. Printed on durable, washable fabric, these posters are designed for long-term use in rugged village conditions. They aim not just to inform but to empower families with clear, actionable guidance.
Le Affiches attracted the attention of distinguished guests. Pak Rendi from PROMKES, the Ministry of Healthâs national health promotion agency, praised their clarity and durability, noting that they surpassed many official publications. He expressed enthusiasm for future collaborations, suggesting these locally designed materials could be shared nationwide to strengthen health education efforts across Indonesia.
The training quickly shifted from theory to practical application. Dr. Narni et Dr. Purba led intensive workshops on blood testing, guiding agents through real-life simulations using genuine test kits. The sessions covered safe blood sample collection, accurate interpretation of results, and how to explain next steps to patients with compassion and clarity.
Nurse Ivon then conducted a dynamic CPR workshop, teaching agents how to act decisively during life-threatening emergencies. The team also moved outdoors for exercises in stabilising patients with fever, dĂ©shydratation, or convulsionsâskills essential for health workers operating alone in remote communities.
Ibu Omi, East Sumbaâs malaria coordinator, shared targeted strategies for malaria prevention and elimination, reinforcing the agentsâ vital role as the first line of defence in villages prone to endemic disease.
By the end of the day, all prevention posters were organised and prepared for distribution. The Agents de Kawan Sehat leave this training not only with new skills and resources but also with confidence, solidarité, et un renewed purpose to save lives and educate their communities.
