Therefore, this study aimed to explore the implementation of health promoting hospital standard at a private hospital in Depok, Indonesia. This descriptive study was conducted at the end of 2023. A purposive sampling with a total of 20 health workers who are responsible for health promotion programs from various backgrounds, including nurses, physiotherapists, laboratory technicians, midwives, and pharmacists, was involved in this study. The instrument containing 35 questions was adopted from the Health Promoting Hospital Guidelines issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Health in 2018, which included four standards, namely: 1) policy and management, 2) assessment, 3) intervention, as well as 4) monitoring and evaluation. Meanwhile, descriptive analysis was performed using SPSS version 29.0. The results showed that assessment standards had the highest average score of 73.72, followed by the intervention of 72.71 out of a maximum of 100. The lowest score was reported in the monitoring and evaluation standard, with an average of 67.82. The components within each standard had an average score of less than 3 out of a maximum of 4. Organizational changes through short-term interventions, including leadership involvement and training the staff, were necessary to enhance the implementation effectiveness of health promoting hospital standards.Keywords: health promoting hospital, service quality, hospital management, developing countries
