Supporting Anies Changing The Name Of The Hospital Into A Healthy Home, PKS: Gives A Positive Aura

DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan launched the translation of the Jakarta Healthy Home/DOK Instagram aniesbaswedan

JAKARTA - Member of Commission E of the DKI DPRD from the PKS faction, Abdul Aziz supports the move by the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, to change the name of the regional general hospital (RSUD) into a healthy home for Jakarta.

According to Aziz, the use of the name of a healthy house as a translation or branding for a hospital can give a positive aura to patients who are undergoing treatment.

"We support the change of name from a hospital to a healthy house because it gives a positive aura and suggestions for healing and health so that the sick become healthy," said Aziz when contacted, Thursday, August 4.

With the change of name to a healthy house, Aziz hopes that the DKI Provincial Government Hospital can further improve the quality of health services to the community.

Given that so far, hospitals in Jakarta have often become referrals for domestic treatment by people from outside the region.

"We hope that this name change will be accompanied by an increase in the quality of existing services and facilities, so that there are no residents of Jakarta who are afraid or cannot go to the hospital," Aziz explained.

"Hospitals in Jakarta are required to be the best hospitals in the country because many local residents seek treatment in Jakarta. Therefore, improvements and improvements must always be made, according to the number of patients receiving treatment, the complexity of the disease and the rapidly growing world of medical therapy today," he continued. .

For information, the healthy house for Jakarta is a manifestation of the health services of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government as many as 31 hospitals. Anies also explained why he made the policy.

Anies said that the change of the name of the hospital to a healthy house at a health service facility owned by the regional government was carried out to change the mindset of the community so that they not only visited when they were sick, but also in order to maintain and improve the quality of their health.

This was conveyed by Anies at the launch of the naming of a healthy house for Jakarta at Cengkareng Hospital, West Jakarta, Wednesday, August 3.

“So far, our hospitals are curative and rehabilitative, so people come because they are sick and want to get well. Come to the hospital to get well, but to get well you have to be sick first. Well, on the other hand, in yesterday's pandemic, we witnessed the importance of maintaining health. Therefore, the role of the Healthy House is added, namely the promotive and preventive aspects," said Anies.

Anies hopes that this name change will succeed in making people think that they come to healthy homes to be healthier.

For example, by conducting medical and mental health check-ups, vaccination and immunization, and various other preventive promotive activities. That way, this healthy home is designed to really make us oriented to a healthy life, not just oriented to recovering from illness.

Anies' decision has drawn criticism from a number of members of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, particularly the PDIP and PSI factions.
