In many low- and middle-income countries, health systems face shortages of qualified health workers, and decision-makers lack the data and tools needed to optimize existing resources.
HRH Optimization Tool for Primary Health Care (HOT4PHC) .
Tool | February 14, 2022
Providing client-centered primary health care (PHC) requires a strong, well-managed health workforce. In order to deliver effective healthcare—as well as to maintain essential primary care services during public health emergencies—it is important for health facilities, national Human Resources for Health (HRH), and implementing partners to use HRH data to determine how to best configure their health workforce and services. With funding from USAID, HRH2030 has created the HRH Optimization Tool for Primary health Care—HOT4PHC—to increase health workforce efficiencies by identifying and addressing HRH bottlenecks at frontline health facilities.
