Abstract
Abstract
Considering Astana declaration on Primary healthcare (PHC) and universal healthcare coverage UN member countries agreed on committing for PHC development. Kazakhstan prepared legal basis for that during ongoing healthcare system reform. Meanwhile, there is no clear mechanism for integration of sectors to address person and community centeredness for health, which has emerged into a need of rethinking engagement between outpatient clinics and their communities. Local NGO “Community health committee” has led the bottom-up initiative in collaboration with Kazakh National Medical University, Outpatient clinic of Almaty State hospital #5, Medeo district mayor’s office and WHO European Center for PHC for creation of an integrated plan to strengthen diseases prevention and health promotion at the district. Project aims to strengthen people centeredness of PHC at Medeo district, through equal integration of all stakeholders into every step of decision-making using community based participatory research framework. Project includes development of teamwork in PHC teams’ through multi-professional training, development of nurses’ competencies for more autonomous work in community, community capacity building and empowerment. After gaining support from all stakeholders, we organized two interactive seminars with community members and PHC teams in order to assess district health needs and build an action plan. Ownership of community members in decision on priority health problem provided community buy-in, high level of engagement and enthusiasm in designing and implementation of the project activities. Voice from empowered community on priority health needs were accounted by local policymakers and led for creation of action plan on identified needs to be implemented in 2019 -2020. One of the main limits of the community engagement is gaining trust and sustainability of the group, we are mitigating it through involvement of academia as an “umbrella”.
Key messages
Project will create a model for equal partnership in disease prevention and health promotion in Kazakhstan. Engaging all key stakeholders based on equal partnership creates sustainable outcomes for health and solidarity.
