Scope: Indonesia has a high mortality rate annually, particularly the maternal and neonatal mortality rate. One of the efforts to improve the quality of maternal and neonatal health services is implementation of integrated midwifery care or continuity of care (COC) which is in line with midwives’ competencies.
