Abstract

Stunting is still a health problem that requires attention because it affects physical growth and interferes with children's intelligence. Midwives are one of the personnel who provide oversight to ensure that nutrition and reproductive health education programs continue in the first 2 years of a baby's life, as well as monitoring the growth and development of the baby, which can help prevent stunting. The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge and skills of the family assistance team in collecting data and identifying the risk of stunting in Tegal city. The results of the activity show that training on data collection and identification of stunting risks using lecture and practice methods can increase midwives' knowledge in preventing stunting in Tegal City.

Abstract

In the era of globalization, hospitals are required to ensure high performance among midwives in delivering services to the community, particularly to patients. However, a lack of knowledge among midwives regarding midwifery credential management has been noted to impact their performance and the quality of midwifery services within hospitals. The objective of midwifery credential training activities is to enhance the quality of midwifery services at RSU Islam Harapan Anda in Tegal City. This community service initiative engaged 30 midwives from RSU Islam Harapan Anda. The training employed two methods: lectures and practical sessions. Results from the training indicated significant improvements in knowledge levels among midwives (p < 0.05). Consequently, training on credential management through lectures and practical sessions can enhance midwives' understanding of credential management and reinforce their knowledge of competencies and authorities, thus enabling them to provide better midwifery services and improve overall service quality within hospitals.
