Way Kanan (October 21,
2022) - The Ministry of Social Affairs through Wyata Guna Center to respond
to the case of a Child with Hypospadias (a condition when the urinary hole is
at the bottom of the penis) in Rantau Jaya Village, Banjit District, Way Kanan
Regency.
In coordination with Way
Kanan District Social Office and the District Social Welfare Worker (TKSK), Wyata
Guna Center Team distributed ATENSI Program in the form of Food Packages,
Nutrition, Room Facilities, Kitchen Equipment, Transportation Costs for Health
Checks, and Business Support in the form of Livestock (Chicken and Goat).
Radit (15) is the 2nd
child out of 4 siblings who come from a poor family so since he was born, his
illness has not been treated. Radit realized that what he was experiencing was
an abnormality, as a result, he was often aloof and kept away from the crowd for
reasons of shame.
Social Workers
accompanied by Babinkamtibmas, Babinsa, Head of Puskesmas (Public Health
Center), PKH Companions, and Local Village Officials provide Psychosocial
Support and In-depth Assessments to Radit.
Suratno (41) Radit's
biological father expressed his gratitude to MoSA. "Thank you for all the
help and treatment for my child, I hope he will get well soon," while
holding back tears Mr. Suratno expressed hope that his son would get medical
services immediately. "I can't reply to anything, hopefully, my prayers
will be answered, my family has been helped," he added.
Cooperation and coordination with the Head of Puskesmas
were also carried out by Wyata Guna Center Team for getting an accurate medical
follow-up.
