Abstract

Background: Every pregnancy and birth is a risky event; therefore, every pregnant woman and maternity must be located as close as possible to the basic emergency obstetric care. As a health care unit, near and reachable health centers are expected to provide basic emergency neonatal and obstetric care (PONED or EmOC in primary health level). In Bantul District, there are six PONED health centers. Health centers in their implementation need an evaluation to improve or maintain a mechanism to measure whether they are good or not good. This study aimed to determine the implementation of PONED in the health centers of Bantul District. Method: This was a qualitative descriptive study. The analysis unit was service providers such as doctors, midwives, nurses, laboratory and driver as well as the head of Bantul District Health Office. The research instrument was the researcher and the tools used were cameras, tape recorders, checklists and interview guides. Results: PONED health centers were viewed more as a routine work because the service provider had not been able to understand the purpose of a good service. Emergency obstetric and neonatal care had not been fully able to be served at six health centers. Sewon I Health Center was the only PONED health center with available support system, but the availability of the service such as tools, medicine and infrastructure had not yet fully available. This was because of the rare cases of obstetric and neonatal complications handled so that the drugs and equipment available were expired and damaged. Management of emergency obstetric and neonatal referral had not been going well according to the case; thus, early referral was frequently preferable. Conclusion: The management of PONED health center’s services was more on the bureaucracy not based on the setting of emergency obstetric and neonatal care, so that the orientation of service providers was seen as a routine job. Support from the government and incentives were still very influential on service providers’ work motivation.
