Design and Illustrations for the report ‘Accessible Quality Healthcare Project: Assessment of the Quality of Care in Primary Health Care Facilities’
The Accessible Quality Healthcare (AQH) project is funded by Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and implemented by Swiss TPH. AQH project is designed to support the implementation of the national reform agenda and complement other donor-supported programs with a focus on the Primary Health Care (PHC) level and non-communicable diseases (NCDs).
The specific objectives of this study are to provide PHC service providers with information to:
- Assess the quality of health services provided in several PHC centres in each municipality, including specific structural and procedural aspects.
- Allow comparison of different aspects of quality of care between 20 project municipalities.
- Determine to what degree health providers have infrastructure and consumables available as outlined in the national PHC norms or, where these are unavailable, those outlined in WHO standards.
- Assess patient satisfaction with the services provided at PHC centres.
