The cooperation between Technical Management Unit (UPT) for Dept. of Public Housing and Government Building with East Jakarta Sub-dept. of Health has provided a polyclinic facility in Komarudin flat, Cakung, East Jakarta. This is one of Jakarta Provincial Government's efforts adding facilities and infrastructures in flat.
Head Unit of Flat Management Region III, Jakarta Dept. of Public Housing and Government Building, Jefyoda Julyan, said the polyclinic will serve the flat residents' health service. It is hoped the polyclinic would serve residents in six blocks even though there is only two blocks occupied. Later on, the other four blocks would be occupied since resident relocation is still running.
The 6x8 square meters polyclinic is located in Block E basement, next to early childhood education (PAUD) and a musholla (small mosque). There are doctors and nurses who already in charge since Monday (4/28).
