Abstract

Background: Psychosocial support for mothers in the implementation of the Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV is very important in reducing the psychosocial burden so that people living with HIV/AIDS (ODHA) continue to enjoy good quality of life and function well in society. PMTCT program in the Province of Yogyakarta has started from 2006, and some existing hospitals such as Dr. Sardjito General Hospital routinely reported on the program in 2006-2009. Dr. Sardjito General Hospital is a referral hospital for some hospitals in Yogyakarta to receive people with HIV / AIDS, especially pregnant women which are HIV positive. Objective: To find out the overview of the mother's psychosocial support in the implementation of the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in Dr.Sardjito General Hospital, Yogyakarta.
