Emergency support to essential health services for earthquake affected households in Hama ltbrgt


ltp class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"gtIn response to emergency life-saving
health needs exacerbated by the impact of the earthquake on available health
services, this intervention aims toltigt lt/igtrltspan lang="EN-GB"gteduce excess morbidity
and mortalities associated with the consequences of the earthquake, and to
rapidly restore health services through operationalised mobile medical outreach
and community-based health interventions (CBI) in Hama governorate. Both
interventions will improve access to life-saving quality care and promote behavioural
change towards practices that prevent diseases and improve their health and
wellbeing. These interventions enable provision of services in closer proximity
to targeted populations in locations with poor access to health care who face
increased health risks attributed to the earthquake.lt/spangtlt/pgt

ltp class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"gtltspan lang="EN-GB"gtMobile medical outreach services delivered by mobile medical teams (MMT),
will provide a basic and essential integrated package of primary health care services
that includes Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health (MNCH), and
treatment of communicable and non-communicable diseases including basic mental
health related services, delivering 50,000 outpatient consultations. Community
based interventions which will be implemented through a network of community
health workers (CHWs) are aimed at encouraging and supporting the adoption of
improved health practices by 12,000 vulnerable individuals to reduce their risk
and vulnerability to disease. The focus will be on practices that affect the
most vulnerable groups, pregnant and lactating women (PLW) and children under
five (CU5), as well as other members of targeted communities. Capacity building
and operational support as well as strengthening of referral services will
contribute to the improved resilience of the health system. lt/spangtltspan style="mso-ascii-font-family:Calibrimso-fareast-font-family:Calibri

will target vulnerable rural communities in the First and Second Health
Districts of Hama including slum areas and informal settlements. Basic services
in the targeted locations are scarce since they lack basic infrastructure for

had more specific locations but only said Hama sub-district. Now it also
includes Harbanifse sub-district however Harbanifse isn't one of the eligible
locations in the list in the programmatic guidance for the allocation. Maybe
I'm just misunderstanding because in the beneficiaries tab of the logframe it
only says Hama.lt/pgt

discussing how to present this to SHF with Haidi, I've written here the Health
districts rather than sub-districts. In the MMT activity description I'll
mention the small cross over into Harbinefse but we'll leave the official
target location as only Hama sub-district and see what they say.lt/pgt
