ABSTRACT

With the outbreak of COVID-19 and spreading very quickly in more than 190 countries, WHO has declared it a pandemic. In the face of the surge in cases of COVID-19, health workers and health care systems around the world are adopting a virtual treatment approach without physical encounters between patients and health workers. Health services for pregnant women, childbirth, postpartum and newborns during the COVID-19 pandemic are held by considering the prevention of transmission of the corona virus for both mothers, babies and health workers. The limitation of ANC and PNC examination visits is balanced with online consultation services between individual health workers and mothers as well as online Mother Class. To avoid exposure to the COVID-19 virus, the government through the task force protocol recommends that health services be in the form of education through teleconsultation. The purpose of this service is to increase the knowledge and skills of midwives in providing midwifery care services through teleconsultation during the Covid-19 pandemic. The method of implementing this service is carried out by conducting socialization webinars and launching halobid Karawang to all midwives in Karawang Regency. The results obtained by midwives can provide online consultation services to the public in the form of the Halobid Karawang application which can be accessed via the Google Play Store.
