Long term family planning services at the Marie Stopes Jinja health centre
Uganda is constrained in meeting the demands of health services because of the shortage of medical personnel especially in rural areas. Uganda has an estimate of 1 doctor, nurse of midwife per 1,818 people (Ministry of health (2010) - Health sector strategic plan III, 2010). The numbers of skilled medical staff are too few in comparison with the need. At the same time access to family planning services is low and yet the demand has increased. Task sharing is therefore fundamental in increasing access to surgical contraceptive services in Uganda. Over the past years, Marie Stopes Uganda has piloted task sharing of surgical contraception using clinical officers. Data accruing from the Clinical Officers study on Task Sharing suggests that the intervention is safe, acceptable and highly satisfactory.
Access to family planning services still remains a big challenge in Uganda. Over the past four years, Marie Stopes Uganda has piloted task sharing of surgical contraception using clinical officers. Data accruing from the pilot suggests that the intervention is safe, acceptable, and highly satisfactory. Strategies are underway to scale up the intervention to reach most parts of the country. However, evidence based data supporting scalability is limited.
