Abstract

Stunting is still a nutritional problem that has an impact on the quality of human resources, so it is necessary to strengthen specific nutrition interventions at the primary health service level. This study aims to analyze the implementation of specific nutritional interventions in the Supplementary Feeding (PMT) of pregnant women with Chronic Energy Deficiency (KEK) and PMT of toddlers in the working area of the Doro 2 Health Center, Pekalongan Regency. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a focus on four aspects of policy implementation according to George C. Edward III, namely communication, resources, executive disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Informants were selected purposively, including the head of the health center, coordinating midwife, nutrition officers, posyandu cadres, as well as pregnant women of KEK and stunted mothers under five. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model.
