ABSTRACT
One of the transmitted diseases in Indonesia is DBD (hemorrhagic fever) which is caused by dengue virus and transmitted through Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The implementation of handling DBD in DKK was influenced by four factors: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic system. The problems in communication are lack of meeting schedules, lack of human resources qualitatively and quantitatively, lack of personnel and training, lack of funds, but disposition is good.
The objective of the research was to analyze the implementation of forestalling and handling DBD in decreasing village-based incidence of DBD in Medan, in 2014 from the four variables above. The research used observational qualitative method. The data were gathered by conducting in-depth interviews with the main informants, the Head of Puskesmas and the personnel of DBD program at puskesmas and analyzed by using validity test with source triangulation for puskesmas.
The result of the research showed that the implementing the policy on forestalling sand handling DBD in DKK, which was caused by four variables: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic system, was not successful since DBD program was not implemented continuously and the fund was inadequate. Larvae observation was done regularly and fogging program in the five working areas of puskesmas in 2014 had run well, seen from the document of the program. However, abatesasi program did not run well in its implementation since there was no evidence of the program implementation.
