Perkesmas service activities can be carried out inside and outside the Puskesmas building. Inside the building, nurses provide nursing care for individuals who come to the puskesmas; in contrast, outside the building, nurses can give family nursing care and nursing care for special/health-prone groups in the Perkesmas target area. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the competence of the Community Health Coordinator at the Public Health Center and the implementation of Community Health Activities in the work area of the Indramayu District Health Office.
