Results The implementation of 10 LMKM has been running with the internal policies of the Puskesmas referring to the Permenkes, carrying out tasks according to the SOP. Several providers have attended training and disseminated it to staff. Monitoring and evaluation is carried out through the credential team at the Puskesmas. Officers in implementing 10 LMKM to support the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding are committed to complying with the SOP. Provider barriers from external factors are the lack of health workers, especially midwives on duty, so that KIE regarding breastfeeding and others is not optimal.
