Background: The current maternal mortality rate in Indonesia is 305 per 100,000 live births in 2015 and it is known that 4% of maternal deaths occur in pregnancies of less than 20 weeks caused by abortion/miscarriage. Therefore, it is important for every health worker (especially doctors and midwives to understand and be able to provide post-miscarriage care according to standards, based on their competence and authority). The role of posyandu cadres in the promotion of family planning and contraceptive program for women is still limited, especially for women who experience post abortion. The role of cadres in comprehensive post abortion care is by providing information about the use of contraception for women post abortion as an effort to support family planning programs and improve the quality of village family planning guidance.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to determine the effectiveness of post-abortion care training in increasing the knowledge and attitudes of posyandu cadres to improve the quality of family planning village development and programs in West Bandung.

Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group design with a random sampling of 30 cadres who received training in comprehensive post- abortion. Collecting research data using a questionnaire

Result: Showed that post abortion care training for posyandu cadres was proven effective. This could be seen from the increase in knowledge and attitudes of posyandu cadres before and after training.

Recommendations: For further research by linking knowledge and attitudes to characteristics of respondents that influence training.
