Through health promotion, disease prevention, and the habituation of clean and healthy living behaviors (PHBS). UKS plays a vital role in shaping students’ character and awareness of healthy living. However, the program’s success largely depends on teachers’ perceptions and active involvement in implementing health values within the school environment.</span></p> <p><span lang="IN"><strong>Method</strong>: This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Informants were selected using purposive sampling, involving the principal, the UKS coordinating teacher, two homeroom teachers, and two students. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the selected informants. </span></p> <p><span lang="IN"><strong>Result</strong>: The findings indicate that teachers have a basic understanding of the objectives, scope, and benefits of UKS as both a first-aid facility and a medium for health education. Teachers actively instill PHBS values through role modeling, learning activities, and participation in UKS programs such as “little doctor” training, health check-ups, and healthy living campaigns. Nevertheless, the implementation of UKS still faces challenges, including limited teacher understanding of UKS objectives and benefits, as well as inadequate facilities, medical supplies, and sanitation resources.</span></p> <p><span lang="IN"><strong>Conclusion</strong>: The implementation of UKS at SD Negeri 93 Kendari has been fairly good and has had a positive impact on fostering clean and healthy living behaviors among students. However, a broader understanding among teachers, along with improved facilities and infrastructure support, is needed to optimize the effectiveness of the UKS program.</span></p>
