abstract: Background: The rapid growth of the ageing population and the increasing burden of degenerative
diseases demand a transformation in medical education to produce physicians competent in holistic
elderly care. However, the implementation of the biopsychosocial-spiritual paradigm in Indonesian
medical course syllabi remains fragmented and insufficiently integrated.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a Semester Learning Plan (RPS) for a medical program based
on a holistic health paradigm (biopsychosocial-spiritual) to enhance physicians’ competencies in elderly
health care.
Methods: This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the MANTAP model
at Levels 1–3 (design and qualitative validation). The research stages included: (1) preliminary study
through needs assessment and initial product analysis, (2) development of a holistic RPS prototype, and
(3) qualitative expert validation using expert judgment. Data were analyzed descriptively and
thematically to inform product design and revision.
Results: The preliminary study identified a gap between the required competencies for holistic elderly
care—encompassing promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative approaches—and existing RPS
designs that predominantly emphasize biomedical aspects. The developed holistic RPS prototype
integrates the biopsychosocial-spiritual paradigm, a continuum-of-care framework for degenerative
diseases, and contextual learning strategies such as PBL, CBL, and PjBL. Expert validation indicated that
the RPS is conceptually and pedagogically appropriate, with recommendations to further strengthen
learning outcome operationalization and affective–reflective assessment.
Conclusion: This study produced a qualitatively validated holistic RPS model that is relevant for
improving medical students’ readiness to deliver comprehensive elderly health care
