Mobile Clinic at Bontihing Village

YRS activities this month filled with mobile clinic services to Buleleng, join fundraising event with BIWA at Lotte Mart and also peer meeting and discussion at Badung Market.

This month YRS held a mobile clinic service to Singaraja in Bontihing Village, the last mobile clinic for this year. This activity is slightly different from the mobile clinic that is usually carried out in other places, because this activity has received tremendous support from local community leaders Mrs. Putu Sumiarti and Mr. Made Sukrawa by involving village officials, and Puskesmas Kubutambahan II. Putu Sumiarti is a resident of Bontihing Village, a property entrepreneur and her husband who are also teaching staff at the Faculty of Engineering at Udayana University. She has a very high concern for social problems in his village in the village in Bontihing. By involving local village officials, Ms. Sumiarti organized health services and collaborated with YRS through public health services, early detection of women's cancers including: cervical cancer, breast cancer, reproductive tract infections and screening services using ultrasound as YRS usually does to villages others in Bali.

Thanks to Ms. Sumiarti and family for the warmth and friendliness of the whole family to help implement the YRS mobile clinic in Bontihing Village, so that we can provide health services to 206 patients including breast cancer early detection services using ultrasound, early detection of cervical cancer with IVA and Pap Smear methods, including the treatment of various reproductive tract infections. Hopefully the spirit of Ms. Putu Sumiarti and her family to share and have such great concern for others and the surrounding environment can inspire other communities, sharing for a better life for others.

We always concern to increase women health knowledge in Badung market by peer educators (PEs). The benefit of PEs program is we can reach directly the target program with their cultural and informal daily language. PEs meeting this month discuss about diabetic commemorates to world diabetic day and also additional material, family harassment to optimized Badung Market communities health status.

Mobile Clinic Service in Sidemen Village

YRS activities this month filled with mobile clinic services to Karangasem, Fundraising, peer meeting and also conduct routine activities at Badung Market and Sanur Market.
Mobile clinic services were conducted at Karangasem in Sibetan village. The majority of Sidemen villagers worked as weavers. All of Sidemen Villagers were very enthusiastic during the activity, both during health services and health education. From these mobile clinics we reach more than 160 people with more than 100 people access cervical cancer screening and more than 100 people access breast cancer screening. In addition to providing health services, Rama Sesana Foundation also formed a Peer Educator whose members are 5 cadres of Sidemen Village. After the Peer Educator is formed, then Rama Sesana Foundation provides training so that so that peer educators become more confident in spreading education, especially about early detection of cervical cancer and breast cancer, so that education can be conveyed to the public effectively.

YRS also join fundraising event at Maya Sanur Resort. We not only hope for money but also hope for wide promotion during this event for wider supporter for our programs.

Peer Educators are people who voluntarily commit to help spread health information through education to people around them. Every year, YRS regularly conduct peers meeting that discuss about health issues, especially reproductive health. This year, Peer Educator Workshop was held on October 30th 2019 in collaboration with BPBD (disaster management organization) Denpasar. This time, the workshop carried out some activities like refresh their knowledge about health and emergency management training to the general public provided by BPBD Kota Denpasar. All the participants were very enthusiastic during the workshop. Hopefully, YRS in traditional market not only send sexual and reproductive health but also health emergency management in the market.
