Abstract. This study aims to uncover, describe, analyze, and implement the control and control
policies for rabies in Tomohon City. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection
techniques; interviews, observations and documentation. The data analysis technique used is an
interactive model analysis from Miles and Huberman, which includes; data collection, data
reduction, data display and conclusion/verification, while the validity of the data was tested using
credibility, dependability, transfer and confirmability. The conclusions of this study are 1. The
policy of the rabies control and prevention program implemented by the Tomohon City
Agriculture and Fisheries Service as a whole has not been appropriately implemented. The
indicators illustrate this studied: policy actions, factors influencing policy implementation, and
public responses to rabies control and control. 2. The study results describe that the Department
of Agriculture and Fisheries of Tomohon City has not been able to implement all policy actions
in controlling and controlling rabies. 3. The study results also show that the bureaucratic
structure, communication, resources, and disposition (attitude of implementers) as influencing
factors do not support the implementation of rabies control and control policies. 4. As a result of
the lack of socialization of the rabies control and prevention policy, some people do not support
the implementation of this policy.
Keywords. Policy Implementation, Control, Prevention, Rabies
A. Introduction
The Tomohon City Government has established a policy on rabies control and
prevention Number 1 of 2017, which regulates monitoring, diagnosis, prevention, security, and
eradication to reduce the risk of rabies transmission to humans. The policy is a written rule that
is a formal organizational decision with a binding nature, which regulates behaviour intending
to create new values in society [1].
Observations in Tomohon City, which became the research locus, showed that many
animals spread rabies, especially dogs and cats that roamed around people's homes and public
places. The phenomenon recorded in the field also shows the free traffic of animal
transportation for sale and purchase. This animal (dog) transportation comes from outside the
region such as from Central Sulawesi, Gorontalo, Bolaang Mongondow, Kotamobagu, South
Minahasa and Central Sulawesi. Thus, animals transported from outside this area may be
contributors to rabies in Tomohon City and even in other areas.
