A study on the utilisation of integrated management of childhood illnesses (IMCI) in primary health care facilitiesMalimabe, Keneuwe Joyce 11 1900 (has links)
This explorative, descriptive quantitative survey attempted to determine whether the reduced number of consultations and admissions of sick children less than five years in Emfuleni sub- district clinics is due to the utilisation of the IMCI strategy or other health services. The research population comprised of all the mothers/caretakers of children less than five years who utilised the clinics and those who consulted the private medical doctor. The convenient sample consisted of 169 candidates. Data was collected by means of a questionnaire and analysed using the SAS/Basic computer statistical software package. Findings of the study revealed a need to address the major concern about the waiting time and operational times in all the three clinics. Recommendations were made that staff allocation procedures and policies be reviewed in order to abate long waiting periods at the clinics where children with childhood illnesses are treated. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)

Nurses perceptions of the factors contributing to the spread of tuberculosis in a clinic in the Odi Moretele sub district of GautengMolele, Mahlodi Annah 06 1900 (has links)
Introduction: Despite being one of the most preventable diseases, TB still remains a
serious and largely neglected disease. Nurses as compared to the general population
are at greater risk of acquiring nosocomial TB. This study was conducted to describe
the perceptions of nurses on the underlying contributory factors that may lead to the
spread of TB in the clinics treating TB patients.
Methods: Quantitative, non – experimental, descriptive, exploratory and cross sectional
design was used. A structured and pretested questionnaire was used.
Findings: The key contributory factors identified were insufficient TB training for staff
and lack of knowledge on the TB legislative framework and TB policy directives.
Conclusion: The findings indicate the need for a comprehensive TB infection prevention and control policy, with associated standards for provision and practice. / Health Studies / M.A. (Public Health)
