■建立健康和保健中心(HWC)以提供全面的初级医疗保健(CPHC)是对印度人口和流行病学变化的计划响应。由于东北部(NE)州面临着常规医疗服务的明显挑战,自通过HWC推出非传染性疾病(NCD)服务以来已经两年了,在曼尼普尔邦的NE州,对CPHC的所有组成部分进行了快速评估。
■评估是使用混合方法进行的,以根据HWC的功能标准评估CPHC下NCD服务的推出。使用预定义的标准有目的地对地区和设施进行采样。主要数据是使用经过调整的预测试半结构化工具和访谈时间表收集的,用基于设施的记录和现场观察进行了三角测量。数据是匿名的,在CPHC的域下进行了主题分析和呈现。
■评估有助于确定通过HWC推出NCD服务的进展和挑战。总的来说,该倡议成功地产生了对初级服务范围扩大的需求和社区认识。然而,基础设施差距带来的制约,后勤延误,培训差距,资金流动和社区层面的弱融合再加上COVID-19大流行对无缝NCD服务交付提出了挑战。
■实现全民健康覆盖取决于非传染性疾病的预防和控制,NCD服务的推出取决于强大的体制结构,尤其是在小学阶段。评估强调需要通过充足的融资来加强HWC,人力资源,药品和技术物流,社区参与,公民参与和变革管理。
UNASSIGNED: The creation of health and wellness centres (HWCs) to deliver comprehensive primary healthcare (
CPHC) is a programmatic response to the changing demographic and epidemiological profile in India. Since the north-eastern (NE) states face distinct challenges to routine healthcare services, and it has been two years since the rollout of non-communicable disease (NCD) services through the HWCs, a rapid assessment of the rollout with respect to all components of
CPHC was undertaken in the NE state of Manipur.
UNASSIGNED: The assessment was undertaken using a mixed methodology to assess the rollout of NCD services under
CPHC based on the functionality criteria of HWCs. The districts and the facilities were sampled purposively using pre-defined criteria. Primary data were collected using adapted pre-tested semi-structured tools and an interview schedule, which were triangulated with facility-based records and field observations. The data were anonymized, analysed thematically and presented under the domains of
CPHC.
UNASSIGNED: The assessment aided in identifying progress and challenges in the rollout of NCD services through the HWCs. Overall, the initiative was successful in generating demand and community awareness of the expanded range of services at the primary level. Yet, constraints posed by infrastructural gaps, logistical delays, training gaps, fund flow and weak community-level convergence compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic challenged seamless NCD service delivery.
UNASSIGNED: In as much as the attainment of universal health coverage is dependent on NCD prevention and control, the rollout of NCD services is dependent on strong institutional structures, especially at the primary level. The assessment highlights the need to strengthen the HWCs through adequate financing, human resources, logistics for medicines and technology, community participation, citizen engagement and change management.
