Analisis Kualitas Air Rumah Tangga Di Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya Tahun 2024

Introduction

Analisis kualitas air rumah tangga di wilayah kerja puskesmas pembantu jati karya tahun 2024. Analisis kualitas air rumah tangga di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya 2024. Sebagian besar sampel air tidak memenuhi standar kesehatan karena kandungan nitrat dan E. coli.

Abstract

Air mempunyai peranan penting dalam kehidupan. Di Indonesia, air untuk keperluan sehari-hari tersebut diatur dengan Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan No. 416 Tahun 1999 (Permenkes untuk air bersih, air kolam renang dan air pemandian umum) dan Keputusan Menteri Kesehatan No 907 Tahun 2012 (Kepmenkes untuk air minum). Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah Untuk menganalisis kualitas air rumah tangga di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode analitik deskriptif dengan pendekatan analisis data sekunder. Data sekunder didapatkan dari hasil Surveilans Air bulan Juli tahun 2024 yang dilakukan oleh UPT Puskesmas Pembantu Jatikarya. Jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah 13 rumah tangga. Hasil yang didapatkan menunjukkan bahwa parameter fisik sudah memenuhi standar baku mutu yang ditetapkan oleh pemerintah, sementara pada parameter kimia diketahui dari 13 sampel didapatkan 11 sampel air yang berada diatas standar baku dan pada parameter mikrobiologi diketahui memenuhi standar baku mutu dikarenakan didapatkan kandungan nitrat dan bakteri Escheria Coli pada air rumah tangga. Diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa kualitas air rumah tangga di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya belum memenuhi syarat kesehatan.

Review

The study, "Analisis Kualitas Air Rumah Tangga Di Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya Tahun 2024," addresses a critical public health issue by assessing the quality of household water in a specific Indonesian locality. Water quality is fundamental to community well-being, and the research correctly identifies the relevant national health regulations (Permenkes No. 416/1999 and Kepmenkes No. 907/2012) as its benchmark. The objective—to analyze household water quality—is clear and directly relevant to the operational scope of a local health center (Puskesmas). The finding that household water quality largely fails to meet health standards, particularly concerning chemical and microbiological parameters, underscores the urgent need for intervention and makes a valuable contribution to local public health surveillance data. However, the methodology and reporting in the abstract present several points for clarification and improvement. The reliance on secondary data from a July 2024 Surveillance Air report, while practical for a descriptive study, inherently limits the researcher's control over data collection protocols and potential confounding factors. A more significant concern lies with the sample size of only 13 households, which is extremely small and severely restricts the generalizability of the findings, even within the specified work area. Furthermore, the abstract contains a logical inconsistency in its results section: it states that "parameter mikrobiologi diketahui memenuhi standar baku mutu dikarenakan didapatkan kandungan nitrat dan bakteri Escheria Coli pada air rumah tangga." This statement is contradictory; the presence of *Escherichia Coli* unequivocally indicates a failure to meet microbiological standards, and nitrate is a chemical, not a microbiological parameter. This specific sentence needs urgent revision to accurately reflect the findings and prevent misinterpretation. Despite these limitations, the study’s conclusion that water quality in the area has not met health requirements is a crucial finding that should prompt immediate action from the Puskesmas Pembantu Jati Karya. Future research should aim to expand the sample size significantly, consider incorporating primary data collection to provide a more robust and comprehensive assessment, and investigate the specific sources of contamination (e.g., well type, sanitation practices, distribution systems) to inform targeted interventions. Clarifying the reported microbiological and chemical findings with precise language is paramount for the scientific integrity and practical utility of this work. This study serves as a vital initial step, highlighting a critical public health challenge that warrants more extensive investigation and intervention.
