Job Title: Thought Leadership Consultant to Support Case studies on Quality Improvement and Clinical Mentorship.

Location:
Gombe

Background
The State Accountability for Quality Improvement Project (SAQIP) is a six-year project funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in Nigeria officially launched in mid-January 2015. It is designed to develop the capacity of the State Primary Health Care Development Agency (SPHCDA) and its associated Local Government Area (LGA) structures to carry out their mandate to provide quality maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) services through public primary health care centers (PHCs), while empowering community structures such as Ward Development Committees (WDCs) to provide the oversight needed to ensure delivery of quality health services at PHCs. The project works towards achieving this impact through four key approaches:
  • Improved governance, capacity, and performance of the public health system
  • Improved accountability and community participation in the public health system
  • Increased utilization of public MNCH services
The SAQIP Quality Improvement (QI) approach uses an iterative process whereby QI teams share and learn from one another and build upon each other’s findings and results. Using the Model for Improvement tool, QI teams identify non-clinical and clinical maternal and newborn Health (MNH) problems in their communities and develop appropriate interventions.

Each of the 57 SAQIP supported PHCs have QI teams comprising of 4 healthcare workers, 4 WDCs and 1 traditional ruler and have tested changes in different domains: ANC, labor and Delivery, postnatal care and facility system strengthening. 35 of these facilities have layered use of WHO safe birth checklist on their QI structures. 19 changes have so far been tested for period ranging from 18 - 24 months. The teams have recorded remarkable success such as improved used of partograph to monitor labor, improved use of uterotonics and decrease in client waiting times. The facilities have also recorded increase access: ANC, skill delivery and post-natal visits.

In Gombe state, health care providers at primary health care level usually have little access to experienced clinicians and specialists to call upon for consultation, review cases, solve problems and reinforce clinical diagnosis and decision making. Most health workers at these levels are likely to have limited experience in managing complicated and emergency cases. Health care providers were trained to provide quality maternal and newborn care and were followed up with supportive supervision.

However, because of limited contact time between the care providers and the supervisors there has been slow improvement in skills and competence of the trained care providers that is expected to translate into improved maternal and newborn outcomes. This fact gave birth to the concept of S AQIP clinical care mentorship program. Experienced nurses and midwives were deployed as residential mentors to reinforce the skills of birth attendants at PHCs. 6 months into the program. Many successes were recorded in skills, adherence to protocols and attitude of the birth attendants at PHCs.
