Abstract
This study aims to analyze the application of home care to the local context and can be transferred as lesson learned in public health services in Muna District, Southeast Sulawesi Province. This study used a qualitative approach with 14 informants selected by purposive sampling. The data were obtained through document review, observation, and interviews and were then analyzed using the Milles and Hubberman model which consisted of data collection, data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. Home care services are considered as an alternative service to public health who are still hesitant to go to the hospital for reasons that the healing process is quite long compared to home care services, healing is much faster and costs are quite affordable, patient care guarantees are more secure, time is more flexible with family and patients, and it is easier to modify based on patient needs. It's just that home care focuses on non-emergency care, so it is less effective in dealing with conditions when the patient is in a critical period. As well as the location of patients who are far away so that it is not easy to get care at home that is reliable and swift in treating patients.
