Mawar Iteng program is a health program to mother and infant in Pemalang Regency. This program is acronym of Mak'e waras bayine kentheng, meaning mother is healthy during giving birth and her infant is also safe. This program is intended to reduce Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR). This successful program should be supported by adequate health logistic providing. This research focused on studying health logistic supply, viewed from the presence of supporting facilities and its distribution. This research employed descriptive qualitative method. Techniques of collecting data used were structured interview, non-participatory observation, and document analysis. Interactive analysis model was used as technique of analyzing data, while data validation was carried out using method triangulation. The result of research showed that this program has not provided health logistic optimally yet. It could be seen from the inadequate availability of ambulance. This condition should get much attention from the government, recalling that the location of main Puskesmas is far from the subsidiary Puskesmas or other medical centers. Ideally, the reinforcement of health logistic is required, particularly in providing an adequate mobile public health center (Puskesmas Keliling).
The Human Development Index (HDI) is a way to measure the success of a country in maintaining the physical and non-physical quality of the population. The indicators include health, education level, and the economy. The purpose of this study was to describe the application of the Mawar Iteng program, including the causes of the high number of maternal mortality rate (MMR) and the efforts of health care providers to assist mothers in childbirth in Pemalang District, Central Java. Whilst the data analysis technique used an interactive analysis model with regard to 3 (three) main components: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions as well as verification. The results showed that maternal mortality during childbirth was a very complex case. Noticing from the age group, the highest percentage of maternal death cases occurred at the age of 25-40 years. Seeing this condition there needs to be interference from the family, community and government including efforts to increase family planning acceptors, improvement in the quality of services in the identification of complications, prevention of complications, first aid and stabilization of patients before making a referral and timely referral. One of the efforts to reduce maternal mortality is by examining antenatal care (ANC) and implementing the Mawar Iteng program embodying Mak'e waras bayine kentheng which means the mother is healthy at the time of delivery and the baby is safe.
