HAMBATAN KUNJUNGAN ANTENATAL CARE (ANC) K6 DI WILAYAH KERJA PUSKESMAS WEEKAROU KABUPATEN SUMBA BARAT
No full text
Angka Kematian Ibu (AKI) dan Angka Kematian Bayi (AKB) masih menjadi masalah kesehatan di Indonesia, dan salah satu upaya pencegahannya adalah melalui pelayanan Antenatal Care (ANC) yang lengkap. Namun, cakupan kunjungan ANC K6 secara nasional masih tergolong rendah, dan Kabupaten Sumba Barat termasuk dalam lima besar cakupan ANC terendah di Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hambatan kunjungan ANC K6 di Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Weekarou. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi. Informan adalah tujuh ibu pasca melahirkan dalam dua bulan terakhir, dua tenaga kesehatan, dan dua suami, yang dipilih dengan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dan observasi, kemudian diolah dengan teknik analisis tematik. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa ibu menghadapi hambatan internal sehingga tidak melakukan ANC K6 yaitu kurangnya pengetahuan ibu tentang tujuan K6, rendahnya motivasi karena menganggap sudah memiliki pengalaman kehamilan sebelumnya, dan merasa terbebani oleh perubahan fisik pada kehamilan. Hambatan eksternal mencakup minimnya dukungan suami, akses ANC K6 yang terbatas karena biaya USG yang tidak terjangkau, jarak rumah yang jauh, dan sulitnya akses transportasi, serta pekerjaan ibu, dan stigma sosial. Peran aktif dari suami, tenaga kesehatan, dan pemerintah daerah terhadap kunjungan ANC K6, serta peningkatan kualitas sumber daya dan fasilitas kesehatan yang memadai, diperlukan untuk mendukung ibu dalam meningkatkan kehadiran pada kunjungan ANC K6 dan menurunkan AKI dan AKB di Indonesia.
