A view of UDER’s work to support health systems in Syria

Posted on January 9, 2022March 9, 2023 by admin

Thanks to a bespoke multi-donor funding approach, via ECHO, FCDO and USAID/BHA, WHO together with health partners, initiated an integrated service delivery network in Harim, Idleb Governorate to implement the EHSP by improving the capacity and coordinating the operations of participating health facilities with the overall specific objectives of increasing access to health services for displaced and host populations in the region and ensuring efficient service delivery. The Harim Network, coordinated by Relief Experts (UDER) with the support of WHO, consists of 60 health facilities. UDER recruits the network technical team of 8 technical staff, dedicated to follow up on a set of priority health areas and process related components covered by the Network (non-communicable diseases, reproductive health, community health, pharmaceuticals and stock management, infection prevention and control, health information system, referral, and complaint and feedback mechanisms). The team visits all 60 health facilities every month. In these visits, the technical team meets with the facility staff, checks the practices against the standard protocols and provides on-job coaching and training. This video highlights a field supervision visit to the PHC center in Kafr Arouq, supported by HIHFAD.
