Anemia are major nutritional problems among Indonesian adolescent girls, with high prevalence despite existing interventions. This case study aims to describe midwifery care for a 16-year-old adolescent with anemia using Varney’s 7-step midwifery care management and SOAP documentation. The patient complained of fatigue, drowsiness, shortness of breath, and showed clinical signs of anemia (pale conjunctiva, Hb 11.4 g/dL). The interventions provided included nutritional education, increased intake of balanced nutritious foods, administration of Iron and Folic Acid supplementation, and health monitoring. After one week, the patient’s condition improved, showing better physical stamina, enhanced concentration in school, and reduced symptoms. This study highlights the importance of nutritional education and adherence to preventive measures in managing anemia among adolescent girls.
