The Exclusive Breastfeeding Scope Based on the Coverage of Infant Health Services and Neonates Visits in the North Buton Regency

Abstract

Breastfeeding is a healthy activity necessary for the babies’ growth and development. The United Nations Children’s Funds (UNICEF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) recommend that children only be exclusively breastfed for six months and continue for up to two years. This study objective is to describe the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding based on the coverage of infant health services and neonatal visits in the North Buton Regency for the 2018-2020 period. This is a survey research using the health report data of the North Buton Regency Health Office for the 2018-2020 period involving exclusive breastfeeding coverage data and coverage of infant health services as well as complete neonatal visits. The type of research data is numerical and the research data is presented in the form of graphs with narration. The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding for infants up to the age of 6 months was the highest in 2019 at the Kulisusu Public Health Center at 92% and the lowest in 2020 at the Kioko Public Health Center at only 43.1%. The highest coverage of baby services was in the year 2018 at the Lakansai Public Health Center at 183% and the lowest in 2019 at the Lakansai Public Health Center at only 0.0%. In 2020 the lowest at the North Wakorumba Public Health Center at only 0.0%.
