Experiences of nurse managers relating to the implementation of the collaborative TB/HIV activities at management level in Mopani District: Limpopo Province

Mazibuko, Josephine 11 1900 (has links)
Text in English / Lack of knowledge and skills among health care providers for provision of integrated TB/HIV activities for better health outcomes for co-infected patients is a public health concern. A qualitative, non-experimental, explorative and descriptive research design based on the phenomenological philosophical tradition by Heidegger to broaden hermeneutics was conducted. The study was conducted at Mopani district to explore and describe the experiences of eligible nurse managers relating to the implementation of the TB/HIV activities at management level. A purposive sample of 14 participants was recruited and consent form obtained. An unstructured interview guide, with a grand tour question, was used to conduct face to face individual interviews. Tesch’s method of analysis was employed until two themes, five categories and ten subcategories emerged from the data. The major findings were on challenges experienced by nurse mangers such as shortage of resources, poor planning, lack of support by management and patient related challenges. Recommendations were based on the findings to encourage staff retention strategies, adequate funding for TB control programs, support by management, co-joint planning, team work and effective tracing strategies. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)
