Health Facilities Strengthening. The main thrust of the project in strengthening health facilities is to improving technical capacity and organizational expertise. All health xxxx xxxxx have been trained in IMCI and planning and evaluation. The training received on planning has been put into action in all health post with quarterly and annual plans. One of the problems identified by the MINSA staff was the inadequate link between community and health facility. The project has made a concerted effort in this area. MINSA has modified the structure for training CHWs. Training was previously centralized in Matagalpa, and has now been decentralized to each health post, thus increasing contact between the local MINSA staff and community volunteers. Regular meetings are being held in most posts with volunteers. 83% of the health posts reported meeting monthly with CHWs in the MTE. A system of referral from the community to the health post has been strengthened and was reported to be functioning in 13 of the 18 communities visited during the MTE. The referral system involves training the CHW to recognize danger signs which justify a referral to the health post. The CHWs in charge of a Base House have been trained and have received copies of the referral slip. The CHW fills out the slip to send with the person to the health post, retains a part of the slip for his/her own records, and a third section is to be filled out by the attending medical personnel and returned with the patient to the CHW for follow-up care. There are still some problems with the system, particularly in collecting information about referrals being made. There are problems with MINSA staff returning the counter-referral slip to the CHWs. The supervision of MINSA staff was identified as another issue to improve during this project. A new supervisory system has been introduced and even though it is not functioning 100%, most people expressed concurrence that it has improved. Supervisors are now using a supervision form, which focuses on improving performance through an agreed upon plan of action. When health personnel were asked during the MTE how the supervision system could be improved, 50% said by having more frequent supervisory visits.

Health Facilities Strengthening. The project inputs were not directed toward the equipment of health facilities but rather toward the strengthening of health worker knowledge and skills to ensure effective delivery of essential health services. Most of the project efforts have also been directly related to improving the capacity Memba and Nacala-a-Velha Districts to implement child survival approaches and support community structures. To accomplish this, some joint planning, monitoring and supervision with the DDS staffs has been carried out. The focus of the district level support has been on training/capacity building of health workers so that they can use their technical and management skills to perform monitoring and supervision activities as well as collect and analyze data for the country’s HIS. This will then contribute to a more informed decision-making process.
