JAKARTA - The Malahayati Floating Hospital is docked at the Jepara Class II Port, Central Java to provide health services, by bringing access to services closer to the community, especially in coastal and island areas.
"We appreciate the presence of the Malahayati Floating Hospital in Jepara and for the last four days have provided the best health services for the people of Jepara," said Jepara Regent Witiarso Utomo when reviewing the health services of the Malahayati Floating Hospital Ship which was docked at the Jepara Class II Port, Monday.

Witiarso Utomo hopes that the presence of the Malahayati Floating Hospital and this health insurance program can continue to improve the quality of life of the community and expand access to equitable health services, especially for residents in coastal and island areas.
The presence of this floating hospital is also considered a tangible step to bring access to health services closer to the community, especially in coastal and island areas.
"In addition to health services, the Laksamana Malahayati Floating Hospital also brings hope, concern, and a sense of calm to the community," he said.
