Marine protection dividend
No full textAs the NSW government considers marine management reforms, this report finds that marine parks already provide significant economic benefits, but it is too early to judge their environmental effectiveness.This short paper presents compelling evidence that: NSW marine parks are already delivering clear and demonstrable economic benefits for local communities and businesses.The protected areas must be allowed to exist for a minimum of 15 years before they can be judged as to their effectiveness.Community support for marine parks and the sanctuary zones within them, is very high around the more established reserves. NSW marine parks are all relatively young. The oldest NSW marine parks are barely 11 years old and the youngest only six. In ecological terms, these parks are still in their infancy. Yet marine parks are already providing economic dividends to local communities, by attracting significant tourism. The establishment of the Solitary Island Marine Park, for example, saw a 20% increase in local business’s turnover in the first five years. Jervis Bay Marine Park has brought an estimated $2.4 million into the region through marine tourism. “Marine parks have become essential infrastructure for regional economies. As long as investment in the parks is maintained, benefits will continue to increase over years and even decades,” said report author Caroline Hoisington. Recreational and commercial fishing also benefit from marine parks, particularly sanctuary zones, where fishing is restricted. European studies have shown that for each year a sanctuary zone is in place, the number and/or size of commercially valuable fish increased by 8 per cent compared to surrounding fished areas. Benefits flow when these fish spill over into surrounding areas. “Local community support for sanctuary zones is 80 per cent or higher, in the three marine parks where opinions have been surveyed”, Caroline said. “The numbers are no different for recreational fishers.” Recreational fishing may also see bigger and better catches immediately, as competition from commercial fishing is reduced. However, sustainable fish stock management must also take account of recreational fishing, which makes up as much as 90 per cent of the catch for some NSW species. The report recommends the NSW Government set 15 years after zoning as the earliest point for making judgments about the impacts and environmental effectiveness of marine parks. Improvements in biodiversity, biomass and resilience of fish species will continue to take place after this time. The first fifteen years is not the end of benefits from marine parks, but is just enough time to show big changes. By contrast, decisions based on short-term assessments risk being driven by emotional reactions, rather than taking a balanced view based on evidence of the dividends that will continue to flow from marine parks
PERANCANGAN APLIKASI ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD (EMR) PADA INSTALASI RAWAT INAP BERBASIS WEB
No full textPelayanan medik dewasa ini membutuhkan sistem yang lebih efektif dan efisien, baik dalam
penggunaan waktu, tenaga maupun sarana. Dalam pengelolaan rekam medik, kenyataan masih
umumnya penggunaan rekam medik manual yang dinilai tak lagi andal menangani data medik
melahirkan ide konversi rekam medik manual kertas ke rekam medik elektronik karena efektivitas dan
efisiensinya.
Penelitian ini bertujuan menciptakan aplikasi rekam medik elektronik yang lebih dikenal
sebagai EMR (Electronic Medical Record) dari rekam medik kertas di Instalasi Rawat Inap Rumah
Sakit Umum Ananda Salatiga. Rekam medik elektronik dirancang dengan membuat form-form isian
catatan-catatan medik dalam proses perawatan pasien selama dirawat. Data-data medik ini kemudian
disimpan dalam basis data sistem dan dikelola secara digital. Setiap kali pengisian data medik pada
form-form tertentu, sistem akan menghasilkan kode yang membawa informasi khusus.
Pada akhirnya, sistem akan menghasilkan deret kode ICD (International Statistical
Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems) dari kode-kode yang dihasilkan pada
pengisian form-form catatan medik. Deretan kode-kode ini mampu menggambarkan perkembangan
kondisi pasien dan penanganan medik yang diberikan selama perawatan. Data-data medik yang
tersimpan dapat ditampilkan kembali dalam bentuk catatan medik digital.
Kata kunci: rekam medik, rawat inap, EMR, IC

Analisis Tata Kelola Maritim Indonesia: Implementasi Visi Pemerintah Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta
No full textIndonesia sebagai negara maritim memiliki banyak peluang dan ancaman. Hal tersebut memerlukan adanya perhatian yang lebih besar terhadap wilayah laut. Penelitian ini membahas strategi Pemerintah Indonesia untuk meningkatkan peluang ekonomi dan mengatasi tantangan melalui Poros Maritim Dunia. Tujuan riset ini adalah menganalisa kebijakan Pemerintah Indonesia dan Pemerintah Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY) dalam pengembangan wilayah pesisir menggunakan teori geopolitik dan teori kekuatan laut. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode kualitatif studi kasus. Data yang digunakan berupa data primer melalui wawancara dan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari buku, artikel jurnal dan publikasi daring. Penulis menemukan bahwa sinergitas penegak hukum, diplomasi maritim sudah cukup baik, namun perlu lebih aktif melibatkan masyarakat untuk pengelolaan sumber daya hayati yang berkelanjutan dan peningkatan SDM masyarakat pesisir. Sementara Visi Gubernur DIY bernama Abad Samudera Hindia belum terlaksana dengan maksimal. Masyarakat membutuhkan tambahan pembangunan TPI baru dan pengembangan TPI menjadi PPN dan PPS untuk meningkatkan produktivitas dan kesejahteraan nelayan. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemerintah pusat dan daerah harus selalu memperhatikan pengelolaan laut, khususnya untuk pemanfaatan sumber daya dan pangan. Bahwa laut memiliki kekayaan alam yang berlimpah dapat digunakan meningkatkan gizi masyarakat dan pendapatan negara. Title: Indonesian Maritime Governance Analysis: Implementation of the Vision of the Yogyakarta Special Region GovernmentIndonesia, as a maritime country, has many opportunities and threats. This condition requires greater attention to the sea area. This research discusses the strategy of the Government of Indonesia to increase economic opportunities and overcome challenges through the World Maritime Fulcrum. This research aims to analyze the policies of the Government of Indonesia and the Provincial Government of DIY in developing coastal areas using geopolitical theory and the theory of sea power. This study uses a qualitative case study method. The data used are primary data through interviews and secondary data obtained from books, journal articles and online publications. The author finds that the synergism between law enforcement and maritime diplomacy is good enough. However, it is necessary to involve the community more actively in the sustainable management of biological resources and to increase the human resources of coastal communities. Meanwhile, the vision of the Governor of DIY called the Century of the Indian Ocean, has not been implemented optimally. The community needs additional construction of new TPI and development of TPI to become PPN and PPS to increase the productivity and welfare of fishermen. It can be concluded that the central and regional governments must always pay attention to marine management, especially for utilising resources and food. That the sea has abundant natural wealth can be used to improve people’s nutrition and state income
