DISTRICT HEALTH ACTION PLAN 2008-09

1 INTRODUCTION

Delhi, the capital of India, is the third largest city of the country. Due to its strategic location along the north, south, east and west route, it has been the centre of attraction for great emperors.

As per the census report of 2001, the population of Delhi is 138.5 lacs (1.3% of all India population) with an area of 1483 sq. km. The urban area is 924.68 sq. km and the rural area is 558.32 sq. km. The density of population at 9294 persons per sq. km is the highest in India. About 35% of Delhi population resides in slums. In Delhi, the slums and the posh colonies exist side by side. In last few decades, there has been a tremendous change in the configuration and character of the city. Migration into the city from several parts of the country has converted it into megapolis. Nearly 5 lacs people from neighbouring towns and cities travel into metropolis every year and form a substantional part of the government and commercial work force. It is estimated that the present population in Delhi is more than 16 million.

To meet the demands of ever increasing health needs and disease load, the government has made huge efforts for providing health services to the people of Delhi through health outlets of different agencies viz. Directorate of Health Services, Directorate of ISM, MCD, NDMC, Central Government, Delhi Cantonment Board, Railway and Autonomous bodies and NGOs. The multiplicity of authorities though sometimes creates difficulties in implementation of different programmes / strategies. On the other hand, the private health sector is very well developed and equipped to provide quality health care and is witnessing the phenomenon of ‘Medical Tourism’.

As Delhi is expanding at a very fast rate, the government is still finding it difficult to provide better health services to people. It decided to decentralize activities by dividing Delhi into nine districts- North, North-East, North-West, South, South-West, West, East, Central, New Delhi.

BASIC THEME

The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) aims to provide for an accessible, affordable, acceptable and accountable health care through a functional public health system. It is designed to galvanize the various components of primary health system, like preventive, promotive and curative care, human resource management, diagnostic services, logistics management, disease management and surveillance, and data management systems etc. for improved service delivery.

This is envisioned to be achieved by putting in place an enabling institutional mechanism at various levels, community participation, decentralized planning, building capacities and linking health with its wider determinants. It also aims to expedite achievements of policy goals by facilitating enhanced access and utilization of quality health services, with an emphasis on addressing equity and gender dimension

Key objectives under NRHM

·  Reduction in child and maternal mortality

·  Universal access to public services for food and nutrition, sanitation and

hygiene

·  Universal access to public health care services with emphasis on services

addressing women’s and children’s health and universal immunization

·  Prevention and control of communicable and non-communicable diseases,

including locally endemic diseases

·  Access to integrate comprehensive primary health care

·  Population stabilization, gender and demographic balance

·  Revitalize local health traditions & mainstream AYUSH

·  Promotion of healthy life styles

The Delhi State Health Mission was launched on 2nd Oct 2006 for implementation of activities under National Rural Health Mission to fulfill the above objectives of NRHM by the following actions:-

n  Addressing the gaps in service delivery

n  Penetrating the unserved and underserved areas

n  Intersectoral Convergence

n  Strengthening of existing structures

n  Providing new structures where needed

n  Capacity building and putting enabling systems in place

Major identified problem areas pertaining to Delhi are :

·  There are several health care facilities belonging to different agencies

·  There is negligible interagency co-ordination

·  There is no uniformity in infrastructure and service delivery components of

the various health units belonging to various health agencies

·  There is suboptimal functioning of the existing units because of various

constraints such as manpower, equipment shortage, budget and planning

·  There are un-served and underserved areas because of increase in population

in different areas and inequitable distribution of health infrastructure both geographically and population wise because of development of new settlements in unauthorized areas

Under the aegis of DSHM, this action plan seeks to address the issues by

1. Strengthening of the existing infrastructure and services

2. Covering the Underserved / unserved areas

3. Vertical and Horizontal integration of National Health Programmes

4. Focusing on Preventive health

5. Capacity Building

6. Special emphasis on the vulnerable groups

7. Rigorous Monitoring / evaluation against standards

8. Ensuring Community involvement

9. Effective Behaviour Change Communication strategy

2 PLANNING PROCESS

The CDMO has been made the nodal officer for health activities in the district for the first time in Delhi under the Delhi State Health Mission. The various duties thus involved gathering baseline information from various health outlets of health agencies in the district on different health related parameters such as available resources in terms of infrastructure, manpower, equipments and the services being provided. Moreover Delhi does not have health units that can be classified as per the National norms into Sub centre, PHC, CHC, District hospital etc. The exercise of providing optimal health services was further compounded by the inequitable existence of health units in the community.

The proforma for gathering baseline information of a PHC was improvised and adapted as per the felt needs for Urban PHC (UPHC) and circulated amongst the nodal officers of various stakeholders for assessment of the gaps that existed between the existing and the ideal health care delivery as per the desired norms.

This plan has been prepared as a joint effort by the nodal officers of various stake holder agencies in the district with basic inputs from the following:

Govt. of Delhi

Directorate of Health Services: Chief District Medical Officer West District

with valuable inputs from Programme officers ,

MO I/C’s of dispensaries and PHN’s
