BTS 4th INTERVENTION

SCOME CIMSA UIN SH

Anamnesis is an activity between a doctor and a patient to gain information about the patient's illness and other related information to diagnose the patient's disease. To make the right diagnosis, doctors need to have good communication skills. Patients with physical, mental, intellectual, or sensory disabilities may experience trouble communicating, especially in terms of getting health services. To facilitate communication, the deaf communicate using sign language. So, SCOME CIMSA FK UIN SH created a Community Development called BTS (Breaking The Silence). This community development is created to provide sign language training to UIN SH Jakarta medical students to support communication using sign language with deaf patients during anamnesis. We had distributed the primary assessment on 27th November and got 30 students of FK UIN SH to follow the sign language training.

On 22nd January 2021, we organized the 4th intervention, which is the end of the Community Development Breaking The Silence (BTS) via Zoom Call Meeting. As the last intervention, we reviewed the entire material learned from the 1st intervention until the 3rd intervention with Agus Subroto and Iwan Satryawan as Guru Pusat Bahasa Isyarat Indonesia. The participants were very enthusiastic following the sign language class from the beginning until the class end.

At the end of the activity, we also held a sign language test to check whether the participant's sign language so far can be understood. There were also awards to the participant such as best participant and best anamnesis video in sign language. We were thankful for the participant and speaker's enthusiasm till the last intervention. Hopefully, the lessons learned from this community development can increase knowledge about sign language and be applied to daily life and applied when doing anamnesis or history taking with deaf patients when becoming a doctor in the future.
