DESCRIBING COMMUNITY-BASED REHABILITATION SERVICES IN INDONESIA BY USING THE INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF SERVICE ORGANIZATION IN REHABILITATION 2.0

Abstract

Objective: Describing rehabilitation services in a standardized way is a challenge. The International Classification of Service Organizations in Rehabilitation (ICSOR) 2.0 was published for this purpose. The ICSOR was criticized for being tested mainly in highincome countries, and because the testing in lowerincome countries did not include communitybased rehabilitation services. Therefore, this study was performed to describe communitybased rehabilitation services by using ICSOR 2.0. Methods: The ICSOR 2.0 was used to describe 8 communitybased rehabilitation services located in 3 cities in 3 different provinces in Indonesia: 6 communitybased rehabilitation services in Bandung, West Java; 1 in Tanah Datar, West Sumatra; and 1 in Gowa, South Sulawesi. Results: All the communitybased rehabilitation services were owned by the government, as a public body, and in the context of the community. The 6 communitybased rehabilitation services in Bandung, West Java, are under the government city of Bandung, while the other 2, from Tanah Datar and Gowa, are integrated within primary healthcare centres. Social welfare supports all 6 communitybased rehabilitation services in Bandung. The other 2 communitybased rehabilitation services are supported by their respective primary healthcare centres. Conclusion: The ICSOR 2.0 is a feasible tool to describe rehabilitation services, including communitybased rehabilitation.
