Abstract

RSUD dr. H. Soewono Kendal is one of the health service units designated by the Government as a Covid-19 referral hospital for the people of Kendal so that medical workers and health workers on duty at Dr H.Soewondo Kendal Hospital, especially in the emergency room, must make physical contact and have close contact with suspected COVID-19 patients and those who have tested positive for COVID-19. This causes the risk of transmission of Covid-19 to health workers to be great, so there is a need for legal protection for medical workers and health workers who work in the emergency room as one of the main entry points for patients at the hospital. This research is a sociological juridical research with a descriptive-analytical research specification. This study uses primary data and secondary data. Data collection in this study was carried out through field studies and literature studies to obtain the necessary data. The data analysis method used is qualitative. The implementation of legal protection for health workers in the emergency room against the risk of transmission of Covid-19 has been well implemented through preventive legal protection in the form of screening, triage, the establishment of a 3M task force, the existence of various internal regulations related to PPI during a pandemic, provision of health insurance and covid-19 vaccination, repressive legal protection is carried out by providing health services for exposed health workers as well as providing incentives and death benefits. There are factors that hinder and support its implementation, namely social factors, juridical factors and technical factors. As a result of these factors, patient fluctuations still occur in the ED because the inhibiting factor causes the risk of transmission to remain because of this.
