The Continuum of Care concept aims to improve health status starting from pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, maternity, postpartum, infants, toddlers, children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. The recording and reporting of health services is very necessary in the implementation of the continuum of care. In Indonesia, medical records have not been well integrated.

The results of the study indicate that UKS can be used as a training center for dokter kecil to learn to record student health status. Dokter kecil are given training to understand basic anthropometry and record it in the student health notebook. The results of observations conducted every month indicate that the level of skills of the dokter kecil in making basic anthropometric measurements and calculating the nutritional status of his friend was getting better.
