MoSA Collaboration with Dompet Dhuafa and Si Bulan in Health Emergency Response

TEMANGGUNG (26 March 2022) - The Ministry of Social Affairs through the Kartini Temanggung Integrated Center has developed a health emergency response network. This effort is realized through the Synchronization of Health Emergency Response Centers and Integrated Centers with Dompet Dhuafa and the Indonesian Ambulance Alert Community (Si Bulan).

This activity aims to disseminate and update knowledge to develop a health emergency response network system for vulnerable citizens, build an emergency service system and build a volunteer network in the former Kedu Raya area (Banjarnegara Regency, Wonosobo Regency, Magelang Regency, Temanggung Regency, and Semarang Regency).

The Head of the Temanggung Kartini Integrated Center, Rahmat Koesnadi, said that his party welcomed the cooperation in the context of the health emergency response.

MoSA has an ambulance and a place to provide Social Rehabilitation Assistance (ATENSI) services for vulnerable residents such as children, the elderly, persons with disabilities, scavengers, to victims of natural and social disasters.

"We welcome this collaboration. We hope that the services and facilities at the Kartini Temanggung Center and other Centers in Central Java can be utilized by vulnerable residents," said Rahmat.

Rahmat added that if vulnerable patients/citizens need ATENSI services, they can directly contact the Integrated Center so that they can be treated immediately. ATENSI services are also available in Central Java, namely the Integrated Center of Soeharso Surakarta, Antasena Magelang, Margo Laras Pati, and Satria Baturraden, belonging to MoSA.

Member of Commission VIII of the House of Representatives, Wastam supports collaboration between MoSA with Dompet Dhuafa and Si Bulan. He admitted that the initiation of this collaboration was welcomed by MoSA.

"For whoever knows there is an urgent need from vulnerable residents, please propose to MoSA. For example, such as assistive devices for the elderly and persons with disabilities," he added.

On this occasion, Kartini Temanggung Integrated Center also handed over ATENSI services in the form of a wheelchair and adaptive walking stick to Dompet Dhuafa and Si Bulan with a total of IDR 18,450,000.
