CHAG Renovates National Office Ahead of 60th Anniversary in 2027

Strengthening quality of care and Facility performance

Monitoring and Evaluation findings presented during the Year 2 Programme Review showed encouraging improvements in facility performance, including progress among some facilities that had previously recorded lower performance. Integrated Supportive Supervision helped reinforce practices in maternal and child health, malaria, nutrition and data management.

Clinical mentorship was also highlighted as an important approach to improving staff confidence, strengthening case discussions and supporting better clinical practice. The presentation of laptops to two mentors further supported the programme’s commitment to equipping mentors to sustain quality mentorship and facility-level support.

Community engagement and blood mobilisation

Community and faith-based engagement remained central to implementation. Thirty-seven (37) facilities conducted 109 engagement sessions, helping strengthen links between health facilities and the communities they serve. Blood mobilisation activities involved 20 facilities, with additional mop-up activities approved to build on the results achieved.

Safer, more dignified care environments

Targeted, cost-effective minor renovations improved 20 high-volume facilities during Year 2, bringing the cumulative total to 30. These improvements helped preserve essential health infrastructure and create safer, more hygienic and dignified environments for delivery and emergency care. The renovations also supported infection prevention and control, patient privacy, and the infrastructure needed for emergency obstetric and newborn care (EmONC) and small and sick newborn care (SSNC).
