Executive Summary
In pursuance of ToRs for doing Muzaffargarh Health Recovery Project (MHRCP) end-term
evaluation, exercise commenced as per plan devised in the inception report. In eight union
councils 07 out of 16 (43.75%) BHUs and 01 out of 03 (33.33%) RHC of ADRA – Pakistan
supported work is taken into account as sample size for evaluation purpose.
As per document review ADRA interventions are seen addressing both hard and soft component
in recovery of health services at each of the BHU in focused union councils. Therefore,
assessment is done in order to get a developed picture on implementation (quality and quantity of
work done by the implementing agency) regarding infrastructural improvement in recovery of
health services, impact of community the ultimate beneficiary of such restored services; and
capacity building of BHUs focused staff maintaining the flow of services once the project
interventions are over.
Accordingly three layers are picked: BHU officials interviewed at length mainly regarding
infrastructural improvement of health services backed by the physical verification of work done
by the implementing agency; 61 field staff members are engaged in 07 FGDs to reveal
improvement in their knowledge, skills and demonstrated behavior; and at third layer – the
community is focused wherein more than 800 households are interviewed covering all three
dimensions on project interventions and work done by the implementing agency.
On part of physical infrastructural improvement, Paint work done is somehow appreciable and
physically seen as good. Civil/Construction/repair/plumbing work is considered well but quality
is shattered. The implementing agency has done nothing on the part of provision of electric items
and IEC material. BHU officials claim that staff is competent enough to deliver services trained
at their own resources or the organization supported other than ADRA – Pakistan implementing
agency. The version of field staff is also ratified by the head of the BHU official that
implementing agency has not arranged even a single training session.
Focusing the interventions on soft component regarding capacity of field staff reveals that
project designed interventions to capacitate the BHU staff has been unaddressed by the
implementing agency as evident not even a single training sessions is conducted. Regarding soft
component, it is pertinent to mention that 93.65% of Field Staff regard somehow improvement
passing benefit to community is due interventions other that ADRA – Pakistan. From every
corner it is evident that implementing agency has shown least concern with designing, printing
and distribution of IEC material that not even a single leaf is produced during the length of the
project interventions.
In the last but not the least, the vital stakeholder --- the community, the basis of all such initiated
interventions are taken into account not only to consult for second opinion on the investment
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Executive Summary Page 7 of 58
made in improvement of health units infrastructure and level of capacity improvement of BHU
staff including field as well; but to have sound understanding on level of community satisfaction
in getting benefit through such services revealing the true impact, area of improvement and
performance of implementing agency.
The community concludes that view point as seemed complaining about improper checkup at
BHU, unavailability of medicines and visit of field staff to households only during vaccination
days and improper nursing care.
There has been consistent views that s that medicines specified for the BHU are sold at medical
stores and they are charged cost of medicine at the time of treatment at health unit. Somehow
substandard medicines are available in small quantity and provided the same for all sort of
disease. None of the clinical test is available there. No IEC material is shared/provided for
transfer of knowledge and skills to deal with different diseases and prevention purpose.
LHWs conduct, job delivery is somehow appreciated by the community; whereas
LHWs/LHV/LHS job satisfaction is in question marked.
The community desperately demands for provision of medicines in sufficient and necessary
quantity, ensure clinical test facility particularly in delivery cases, 24 hours service, ambulance
facility and staff/doctor ensure presence in case of emergency.
It concludes that obviously, financial and human resources are not used effectively and fix lashes
on part Monitoring and Evaluation during implementation phase. Implementing and donor
agency must review the strategies to tight the screws adopting disciplined approach on M&E
framework to be applied during implementation phase of such projects in future.
As lesson learnt, it is recommended that the donor agency needs to take concrete steps to
strengthen ongoing physical monitoring activities during implementation phase of the project;
whereas implementing agency may come up with real time sound evidences against use of
resources to meet end objectives in letter and spirit. The disbursement of financial resources may
be linked with the “mile stone achievements” during implementation phase of the project with
sound and concrete ongoing monitoring catalyst.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Introduction to Evaluation Exercise Page 8 of 58
Introduction to Evaluation Exercise
In pursuance of TORs of this assigned exercise and as communicated in the inception report;
following objectives are set to meet with the realistic interpretation of the matter:-
1) To come up with the authenticated, un-biased and real time analysis on the work done
under ADRA Scope of Work with reference to activities performed by the implementing
agency for renovation of health services under MCHRP.
2) To assess the impact, weightage to sustainability and leading to the way forward in lines
with scope of work
Keeping in view such objectives, exercise is decomposed in three layers to come up with the
answer to the question asked for on physical services provided, satisfaction of community getting
benefit from these services and competency of BHU and Field Staff delivering such services. On
Renovated of health services (applying to physical infrastructure of BHU), view point and
feedback on implementation are taken from community and the BHU High Ups supported with
bird’s eye view of Field Staff and supplemented with evaluator personal observations. Whereas
competency level of BHU Field staff is judged through community feedback primarily and
supported with the secondary observation of the evaluator. The competency is focused on three
ingredients: Knowledge, Skill and Demonstrated behavior of the officials of BHU and Field
Staff. As third layer, the grass root level personnel, face of BHU having close first interaction
with the community at their door step is also taken into account to speak about not only ADRA –
Pakistan interventions made through the implementing Agency but also come up with their
genuine feedback regarding investment on their capacity building.
The worked done through this exercise is structured in such a way that sampled and focused
BHU/RHC wise review addressing above three layers is discussed and then component wise is
summed up in analysis part of both qualitative and quantitative. As agreed in the proposal of this
exercise 50% of the targeted ADRA – Pakistan done interventions in BHU/RHC and concerned
community in the respective Union Council has been considered in this evaluation exercise
resulting to that 07 BHUs and 01 RHC contacted, FGDs conducted with 61 LHWs/LHVs/LHS
and more than 800 Households in 08 Union Councils are interviewed.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria Page 9 of 58
Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria
The MCHR Project end-term evaluation is addressed on three fold pertaining to type of main
stakeholders: the ultimate personnel posted at Basic Health Unit (for which infrastructural
interventions made to make their job convenient), the BHU Field Staff particularly LHWs (their
capacity is strengthen) and the end-users (for whom whole of project is done) – the Community.
Hence feedback on impact, sustainability and weightage to delivered work is required to coincide
at one point both in terms of qualitative and qualitative assessment of this evaluation exercise.
Therefore, in order to interpret the feedback on above three ingredients; the evaluation
mechanism is designed in such a way that tools used to grab data from the triangle is set and
assigned equally consistent evaluation criteria with each of the parameters used in the tool kit.
Referring to the respective annexes pertaining to questions asked for; and quantitative responses
are recorded as slicing the degree of their opinion and feedback into following way:-
Very Satisfied Somewhat dissatisfied
Somewhat satisfied Very Dissatisfied
Neutral Not sure
The interpretation to above quantitative form of feedback is agreed on the used terms as:-
Very Satisfied: provides the level of satisfaction to the extent that respective attribute is
fulfilled to the extent 80% and leading to upward meeting all
obligations associated with that particular parameter.
Somewhat Satisfied: The level of satisfaction upto 60% and needs improvement to meet
necessary and sufficient conditions for the attribute.
Neutral: The level of satisfaction upto 40%; not quite upto the mark; somehow
shows neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. Obviously, requirements are not
met in letter and spirit but on-redo it can be improved to attain fair level
of achievement.
Somewhat Dissatisfied: The level of satisfaction upto 20%; Sure that desired specification of
the assigned task are not met any way. Minimum standards are not met.
Activity is required to perform again.
Very Dissatisfied: The level of satisfaction is just upto 10%; The agency disappointed
with the performance. Sever observations are reported in every aspect
of the activity performed. The feedback on such performance is
somehow like “it would have been better not to perform if the result is
just 10%”.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria Page 10 of 58
Not Sure: In this concern, on performance the level of satisfaction is Zero%
“DRASTIC”. It translates that the implementing agency did not even
bother to initiate the prescribed activity. Surprisingly, the stakeholders
are ignorant of such type of facility is extended on paper but not
physically exists on ground. The implementing agency made
commitment to deliver the assignment but seemed to be failed to do so;
might it have been reported as activity completed to the funding
agency. This is a big question mark not only on performance of the
agency but also leaves sever complications for the agency to take on
board for further assignments.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 11 of 58
Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani
ADRA – Pakistan interventions under MCHRP are evaluated on three dimensions: infrastructure
improvement at BHU, capacity building field staff in particular, and community satisfaction on
level of getting benefits through such investment.
Review on Infrastructural Renovated Interventions:
With respect to scope of work regarding infrastructural renovated health services, provided by
ADRA – Pakistan; review is conducted with physical observation visiting Basic Health Unit and
interview with the BHU available High Ups over there.
At BHU – Thatta Gurmani; Medical Technician, having length of service more that 20 years
spending most of the time posted at BHU is interviewed. It is hereby mentioned that Medical
Officer is not posted at BHU. Therefore, the senior most available official is engaged in
interview. In lines with ADRA – Pakistan interventions to renovated health services; following
key points are revealed on infrastructural improvement at BHU:-
 As per scope of work; civil work/construction/repair work
done to the extent of repairs nicely and presently very much
effective. Hence, the interviewee is “very satisfied” with the
work done in this regard.
 No Electric item is provide/installed as per list under SoW.
No plumbing/boaring work is done; no electric motor is
provided, no steel or wooden repair for windows/cupboard is
done. Absolutely, noting is done. The interviewee astonished to know that about the said job
was supposed to be done. Hence, the interviewee showed totally ignorance as “not sure” and
“very dissatisfied”.
 Paint work is done according to scope of work; presently seen effective so for; the
interviewee is also “very satisfied” with the work done in this regard.
 On the point of training to Field Staff, interviewee is of the view that no training is provided
to LHWs/LHV/LHS; told that field staff needs training to increase their competency level.
However, the staff doing well to the extent of their capacity, courteous and friendly to
community, and maintaining cleanliness at BHU is “somewhat satisfied”. Evidence can be
examined under heading of “Glimpses from the field”.
 Generally speaking, people don’t receive care from services of BHU situated at inappropriate
place with respect to the people living at far flung area under jurisdiction of BHU. Presently,
1/4th
of BHU population have access to BHU.
 No IEC material is provided/ placed at any place in BHU. ADRA – Pakistan monogram is
not seen at any place chart/poster or any other material pasted/available at BHU.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 12 of 58
Review on Competency of Field Staff:
At BHU – Thutta Gurmani, with the strength of 19 LHWs, 08 participants are engaged to have
discussion about the competency (knowledge, skills and demonstrated behavior at work place)
level they achieved during the length of service so for.
During the discussion it is revealed that no
training for LHWs/LHS/LHV whatsoever is
conducted by implementing agency under
MCHRP interventions. This version of
statement also ratifies the view point take
from BHU – Office Incahrge on the focused
question. However trainings on the topic of
health and hygiene, cleanliness, TB issues,
Malaria, Mother and Child Health Care are
initiated and conducted from time to time
arranged by different organizations and the
parent department. No IEC material is
provided through ADRA interventions.
However field staff received supporting
material from other organizations, relevant
to job position.
Such training content has been very much
relevant to the job position of LHWs in
particular. The participants shared that
training has improved the skills and
knowledge used for effectively delivery of
assignments. It results people pay attention
and listen to follow good health practices
and show willingness to mend the ways of
living.
The skills are learnt through practical
demonstration during training sessions and
made participants fully conversant with the
procedure like hand washing, nail cutting,
etc. This practical application has also
brought positive change among children and
families. With extended good gesture,
motivation and acceptable conduct; now
people approach to field staff as taking a
step ahead to get services in the field.
Such training has developed the show good
temperament to people dealt with courtesy
and friendly environment. Now people have
trust to us and share their problems
particularly pregnant women. Prior to this
most of the women did not share
information about their health issues. Now
firsthand information is shred with field staff
seeking help to have care to the delivery
process. On enquiry, participant claim of
visiting 10 – 15 house in a month.
In order
to
achieve
such
level of
compet
ency
field
staff has to struggle to control temperament
even people show displeasure and rude
behavior.
The discussion reflected good body
language of and motivating gesture
translating key words on the floor as after
training the field staff has: “confidence”,
“Job Description is fully conversant”,
“Learnt the skills to motivate people”,
“People do agree to our advocacy extending
health services to them”, “People do respect.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 13 of 58
During the discussion, participants seemed complaining about supervisors having no support,
coordination and lack of team building gesture. It reflects dire need of extended coordination and
cooperation among field staff in the best interest of the community. Hence demonstrated
behavior needs to be improved in essence to justify delivery of assignment in a coherent way.
Community level of Satisfaction:
The people residing around the Basic Health Unit at Thatta
Gurmani are visited and in total 95 persons are
interviewed. Female and male interviewed proportion is
43.15% and 56.84% respectively. The composition on
marital status is shown in the table.
Taking the statistics as shown in the following table clearly translates that most of the people are
“somewhat satisfied” on judgment of staff competency, courteous level, nursing care and field
staff service at their door step. Dissatisfaction level 44% on staff competency, 42% on courtesy
level to community, 34.73% on nursing care at their visit to BHU and 14.73% on LHWs visit in
the community is calculated.

The table drawn above speaks that 33.68% claim that any literature, IEC material is never
provided by the field staff through ADRA sort of interventions or any other source. The figures
show satisfaction on transfer of knowledge, skill using such material is due to other than ADRA
supported interventions. Majority of the people are very dissatisfied with location of BHU as
situated at far flung in the union council to approach resulting to that 96.84% are dissatisfied
with the cost to bear against the level of service they get at BHU.
Majority of the people come up with the
version that LHWs visit to the house once
in a month. Rest of the percentage ratifies
that community point of view that “field
staff visits only in vaccination days”.
The general perception of the community is
that no proper and concentrated
consultation and treatment is received at
BHU level. Field staff only takes care in
vaccination days. Depending on the
circumstances, conduct of field staff and BHU posted members change
accordingly. Cost of medicine is charged. It is also observed that
medical officer is posted on temporary basis; this results in ignorance
and dame care attitude towards service delivery. It has been desperate
need of community about permanent on consistent basis posting of
medical consultant at BHU. This 94.74% the people say “Yes” to
“somehow getting services” mixed with the interventions other than
ADRA – Pakistan. There comes the suggestion that BHU staff must observe full working hours
and rest assured their availability in emergency cases. Clinical test facility like USG, X-ray,
blood test and pregnancy test facility must be arranged. Issue rest with the consultant call at
private clinics. Ambulance service should be started to provide benefit to the community as a
whole.

Thesil Kot Addu, District Muzaffargarh. It has been focused under ADRA – Pakistan health
services renovation. For the purpose of evaluation of implemented work thereat; same set of
evaluation tools are used and come up with the view point of BHU infrastructural physical
verification, view point of BHU officials and community level of satisfaction being ultimate user
for all such facilities. Following is the brief on out come all three segments as under:-

Review on Competency of Field Staff:
The competency level of grass root field staff i.e. LHWs is reviewed using the tool of FGD. The
discussion is conducted with 09 workers engaged at a place in the house offered by one of the
participants. The focus has been interventions made by ADRA – Pakistan.
Most of the LHWs denied conduct of proper
training session by implementation agency
funded by ADRA – Pakistan. However they
informed that concerned LHs engaged them
in some sort of training sessions from time
to time. However, one day training session
(only 03 Hrs session from 01:00 p.m. to
03:00 p.m.) conducted by the
implementation agency. The charts were
used to conduct the session covering topics
on health hygiene, cleanliness, use of boiled
water, etc.
It was learnt that due care should be given to
hand wash after livelihoods handling,
cleanliness of houses, proper disposal of
waste, nail cleaning, maintaining hygiene
while cooking. Posters, pamphlets, brochure
were used in training; but noting was
provided to field staff for further use. No
IEC material is provided to distribute in the
community.
LHWs state that competency is increased
and worked resulting to that people do care.
12 – 15 Households are visited on daily
basis. Every household is visited
approximately 02 times per month. LHWs
claim that good temperament is
demonstrated on community argument on
need for provision of medicines and the
demands related to BHU preview.
They do sincere efforts in delivery of
assignment and remain polite, courteous to
people. LHWs gesture show that level of
advocacy is enhanced after training

child care methods and how to protect from
diseases like: cough, fever, chest infection,

The above statistics reveal that people are “very dissatisfied” with the use of tool in provision of
any sort of IEC material to make them conversant of health issues, prevention and cure. The cost
of token fee is appropriate to the extent of service people receive.
Most of the people say that LHWs visit to
household only in vaccination days. The
significance of irregular visit is also alarming as
depicted 21.10%. Generally, people regard that
support staff visit once in a month.
Most of the people rest with the grievances that
once ADRA – Pakistan supported and provided a
water filtration plant installed at RHC. People in
general in the area and RHC interacting community
was obliged getting benefit. But, after some time,
the plant de-installed and equipment was taken from the area by ADRA – Pakistan authorities.
Such move reflected a bad impact in the area.
The household seemed complaining about unavailability
of medicines and visit of field staff to households only
during vaccination days, improper nursing care.
Community reveals that medicines specified for the RHC
are of sub standard. Somehow substandard medicines are
available in small quantity and provided the same for all
sort of disease. No IEC material is shared/provided for
transfer of knowledge and skills to deal with different
diseases and prevention purpose. The people who can afford treatment at place other than RHC
move there straight away. The people with poor financial worth only seek treatment at the centre.
Although the cost of token fee is bearable; amazingly
they are contended with the level of treatment as
compared to token fee. To the extent of fee charged at
RHC; people justify it with the level of service they
receive.
The community requires medicines in sufficient and
necessary quantity be made available at the unit, ensure
clinical test facility particularly in delivery cases, 24
hours service, ambulance facility and staff/doctor ensure presence in case of emergency.

interventions are made to renovated health services thereat. For the purpose of evaluation, the
unit is taken in sampling and visited to assess the work done as physical verification
supplemented with view point of the head of BHU.
The summary on the physical verification and interviewee conducted with the Medical Officer,

Review on Infrastructural Renovated Interventions:
 On the part of civil/construction/repair work, waiting area and washrooms are constructed;
whitewash, grouting and plastered on repair work is done nicely as per SoW. Sewerage work
and distemper was required but not done. Hence such

through ADRA intervention with installation of
electric motor, Water tank repaired. This work is done
quite satisfactory and services are restored,
community/staff getting benefit accordingly.
 Noting was done on the SoW pertaining to provision
of electric items. Such job is left; hence observation is
recorded as “very dissatisfied”.
 No IEC material is provided to post at BHU premises as well as for the use of field staff. No
banner, poster, leaflet, brochure, etc is seen pasted on walls of the BHU under monogram of
ADRA – Pakistan. The level of satisfaction to this extent is received as “very dissatisfied”.

Review on Competency of Field Staff:
Among the strength of 30 LHWs; 07 of them spare some time to get involved in focus group
discussion to have their view point on the level of competency acquired through ADRA –
Pakistan interventions for restoration of health services. Key points on the discussion are
summarized as under:-
ADRA – Pakistan did not conduct any sort
of training relevant on LHWs/LHVs/LHs
job description. However, some other
supporting agencies arranged and conducted
training sessions relevant to their scope of
work. Trainings on the topics: T.B.
prevention, Dengue virus prevention,
Malaria virus, maintaining cleanliness,
mother child care, natal care, health and
hygiene are covered with demonstration and
content is explained through pictorial and
charts.
Demonstrated skills regarding hand wash,
nail cutting, cleanliness, etc are increased
with practical application to deliver
effectively. After consecutive trainings with
enhanced advocacy and interventions; now
people do agree for vaccination regarding
child protection and mother, polio, etc. The
conduct of the people is changed now in the
sense they treat us as useful worker and
facilitator helping to resolve health related
issues. They easily share their CNIC
information.
Before flood people did not show their
willingness but after that with our
application through acquired skills because
of trainings agree to follow the desired
procedure, good practices of life skills and
get their health related issues resolved. It is
observed that after flood people have also
changed their attitude to positive aspect on
maintain cleanliness and hygiene conditions.
People do care for maintaining cleanliness at
their own and observe cleanliness at their
homes.
The participants claim that people observe
sense of responsibility and show willingness
for vaccination of their children. Prior to
this, job of polio vaccination was entrusted
to male personnel resulting to that people
were reluctant to show their willingness for
the job. We as female persons have turned
the things into positive aspect.
On
enquiry,
it is
revealed
that no
IEC
material
is
provided.
However
charts regarding family planning, malaria,
TB, etc were provided by the sources other
than ADRA – Pakistan monogram. Such
IEC material is distributed in the community
accordingly. The use of charts has been very
effective to make the community conversant
about health issues. The trainings has
exercised a health influence on the job
assignments and behaviour in particular; as
participants shared aspiration and speak
through body language as:-
“It has changed our life; controlled
temperament”; “Sense of Child protection is
increased”; “Maintaining Minimum family
planning”; “Children are dealt with
kindness”; “Children have made us
understand to maintain good hygiene
conditions”; “Ensure cleanliness at home”;

Review on Competency of Field Staff:
At UC Pathal, the total strength of LHWs is 18 with 01 LHV under a Lady Health Supervisor.
Nine LHWs are engaged in discussion to assess increase in competency level after ADRA –
Interventions. The discussion is summarized as under:-
On enquiry, unanimously told by the
participants that none of the training
whatsoever is arranged/conducted with the
support of ADRA – Pakistan for any of the
field staff member. However, some training
sessions pertaining to the job description,
mother and child health care, cleanliness, to
safeguard people for Dengue virus, health
and hygiene, precautions from Malaria
disease are arranged by the department as its
own or some supporting agency other than
ADRA – Pakistan.
In the training session, hand wash method is
learnt through content and demonstrated
application. Poster, charts and supporting
material is used to conduct training sessions.
The training received from such
organizations has played a vital role. First,
people did not cooperate; and now sense of
willingness is improved. Now, in the field,
after training, participants are capable to
replicate, demonstrate the skills and methods
on maintaining health and hygiene. The
pregnant women are provided consultation,
awareness and get them agree for routine
medical check on regular basis to avoid
further complications.
The capacity building has provided benefit
in the way to get under neutrinos children to
have access to treatment way. Disciplined
approach is adopted in vaccination to ensure
none of the child is left without vaccination.
The participants are capable to pass on
information in more concrete way so that
community gets benefit. The participants
claim that regular visits to HH on consistent
basis are performed. Behaviour of the
community is changed in such way they
field staff interventions as respectable as
they feel the information to be passed to
them is beneficial to them. The field staff
regards it as their great success.
First people were afraid of getting their
children vaccinated as thought such
intervention as effect of family planning.
Now with
extensive
advocacy,
motivation
to
households;
the
scenario is
changed. Only daily basis seven HH are
required to visit; this obligation is being
complied with accordingly. The HH having
pregnant women or bearing new born baby
is visited frequently. The participants claim
that generally, people are satisfied with the
working. Anyhow most of the people
complain of few field visits; as owned by the
workers. No IEC material is provided to us
supported by ADRA – Pakistan.
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU – Pathal Page 29 of 58
The field staff with great enthusiasm and satisfied body language shared that the gestured as:
“Sense of Responsibility is developed” after extensive trainings. “Confidence is increased to talk
with male persons”. We can communicate with the High Ups about needy and aggrieved family
member seek help on health issues. “Interest in working is increased”; “Made capable in delivery
of assignments effectively and efficiently”

It has been unanimous voice from the community showing dissatisfaction on sharing/provision
of any type of IEC material in transfer of knowledge, skills and awareness about cure/prevention
of diseases of any kind. Hence quantum of community demonstrating displeasure is evident in
above table. Almost 90% people are satisfied with the token fee charged against service delivery
at BHU.
Majority of the people regard that field staff visit to
their house once in a month elaborating health tips,
maintaining cleanliness, hygiene conditions and
vaccination purposes. This sort of opinion also
ratifies 63.64% level of satisfaction of getting
service at door step, as revealed above
As bottom line, in spite of concerns and problems faced;
community people are of the view and 83.87% generally
think they get “somehow” response and minor level
treatment as and when they approach for services to BHU
after restoration of health services thereat. Significant
percentage of 16.13% opinioned as never received
care/treatment at BHU even for minor problem they faced.
This majority of people come up with the concerns of no proper checkup, seen nepotism by BHU
staff in extending services to their blood relatives, BHU allocated medicine is sold in the market,
LHVs visit to HH only during vaccination days, and the major concern has been about
unavailability of doctor in case of emergency. The practitioners call the patients at private clinic.
The community suggests provision cost free medicines, ambulance service in emergency,
availability of doctor and staff, delivery service for round the clock and clinical test facility
particularly for delivery care must be arranged at BHUs in dream to meet realistic interpretation
for ideal services.

Review on Competency of Field Staff:
In the Union Council Hinjrai; the Basic Health Unit – Kanju Wala carries strength of 19 LHWs,
02 LHVs under the supervision of a Lady Health Supervisor. On having visit to BHU; revealed
that none of the field staff particularly LHWs belong to the area other than Hinjrai. The BHU
located at far flung area; for the reason staff member having not easy access show least interest
to make sure attendance on regular basis.
In spite of sufficient and necessary coordination; Evaluation Field Team has been unable to grab
attention of BHU field staff in order to get their spare time and engage in focus group discussion.
Hence the version of LHWs about competency their level has not been taken into account.
Community level of Satisfaction:
In total 99 households are visited to get their level of
satisfaction in response to health services restored at Basic
Health Unit Kanju Wala. The breakup on number of
households were interviewed is shown in the table.
Therein around 41% of female and 58% male population
is addressed to get their observations, suggestions and
findings on the level of services they receive from the
basic health unit.
The statistics in following table shows that competency of
BHU staff, behavior and dealing with community, the
extent of nursing care to patients visiting thereat and field

In interpretation of above table statistics; majority of the people is satisfied with the
accessible/approachable distance to BHU and the token charged against services. But specifically
transfer of knowledge and skills through any sort of IEC material on health related issues has not
been upto the mark.
The graphical presentation shows that majority of
people reveal field staff visit once in a month.
There is significant percentage on sum up of
irregular, on request and never visiting trend of
field staff paying attention to household at door
step. This is mainly because of none of the field
staff posted at BHU Kanju Wala is not resident of
the concerned Union Council. As Union Council
and BHU is located in far flung area, very near to
flood affecting danger zone; therefore access to
such area is also difficult.

Generally, community has somewhat same observation as no
proper check up and attention by the doctor at BHU,
improper/non-availability of medicine, improper treatment
to specific disease, provision of one sort of medicine (if
available) for all diseases and cost of medicine is charged.
Unanimously told that no IEC material is provided, shared
and transferred knowledge, skills and demonstrated behavior
in dealing with the prevention on health related issues.
Most of the people seemed complaining about irregularity and unavailability of doctor at the
time of emergency. Field staff pays attention only in vaccination campaigns. “Somehow” having
none of the other option to approach and access to better medical facilities; majority of the
people is contended to say that “somewhat” but not desired facility is obtained.
The community suggests and demand as well regular visit of field staff to HH, consistent
availability of doctor particularly in emergency, clinical test facility particularly related to child
and pregnancy/delivery matters. Proper room, safe drinking water (water purification plant
should be made available) and ambulance service must be started to address the emergency need
in a coherent way.

Review on Interventions at BHU – Chak 518
This BHU is located at Diyara Din Pana Road, affected by flood – 2010, resulting to that taken
into account by ADRA – Pakistan to support in restoration of health services. The BHU – Chak
518 under UC – Mirpur Baghal is selected in to the sample for evaluation exercise under ADRA
interventions carried out in this regard.
Review on Infrastructural Renovated Interventions:
The Medical Officer Dr. Israrul Haq is interviewed to get view point on quality and quantum of
infrastructural work done at BHU; and exercise is further strengthened with physical verification
as well. The BHU has support of 25 LHWs, 01 LHS, 01 LHV and 02 Midwife in operation with
other technical staff on board. The summary of discussion on infrastructural and capacity
building related interventions is given below:-
 The civil/construction/repair work done is “somewhat satisfied”. Work on installation of tuff
times, construction of washrooms, waiting area, path is completed well and done
satisfactorily. However the wall, electric motor, boaring and demand of construction of slabs
in the store room is not done.
 Electric items are provided to the extent of BHU demand: 02 ceiling fans, 02 bracket fans
and 01 Pedestal fan and the equipment is functioning well. The energy save has not been
demand and same is not provided even listed in the SoW.
Hence note as “very satisfied” to this component is
received from the interviewee.
 Paint work as per scope of work is done as good and
presently seems to be effective – hence graded as “very
satisfied”.
 No IEC material is provided. The BHU walls are
populated with number of charts, pamphlets, brochures
etc provided by the other supporting agencies; but noting is seemed available under ADRA
monogram. The official are “very dissatisfied” to this extent.
 No Training is provided to LHWs/LHs/LHV or any other staff. It is revealed that
implementing agency committed to conduct sessions but not done any way --- hence the
grading to this component is obvious.
 The Medical Officer claims good nursing as “very satisfactory” care, provision of health
services in purview of BHU and generally people receive services from BHU; the courteous
level of all staff is “very satisfactory”; dealt with the interacting person very politely.
 The competency level of staff is justified with the ambit of BHU services.
 Concluding to observation; it is recorded that MO needs quality improvement and sewerage
be installed as per specification and prescribed length devised in SoW. This work is done as
M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU – Chak 518 Page 36 of 58
incomplete. Water tank already available there is not properly functioning and same is not
addressed to make functioning properly.
Review on Competency of Field Staff:
The field strength at BHU – Chak 518 is composed as 25 LHWs, 01 LHV, 02 Midwifes, all
under the supervision of one LHS. In the focus group discussion, 11 LHWs accompanied with
LHS have spared the time and actively participated with valuable input to inquiry framework.
The deliberate discussion with the group is summarized as under:-
It is revealed that none of the training
session is arranged / conducted through
ADRA – Pakistan interventions. Some other
supporting organizations and the department
initiated trainings for field staff are arranged
on topics: polio vaccination, precautions
from dengue fever, Malaria disease,
cleaning methods of polluted water, steps on
hand washing properly, mother and child
health care, pre/post natal care, etc.
The participants claim in enhancement in
knowledge, application of skills and positive
change in behaviour after such training
sessions. It is assessed that participants are
knowledgeable and well informed on the
content required to apply for the said job.
The LHWs shared with confidence
procedure of different skills learnt through
training sessions. On inquiry stated that no
IEC material is provided through ADRA –
Pakistan interventions. Field staff sense of
responsibility is showed with the statement
as “before training irregular visits are done
to the community; but after training regular
visit are conducted on daily basis”.
Training has turned positive result in getting
willingness of people to care about health
and hygiene issues, maintaining cleanliness
at home and compliance of proper
vaccination for the family.
The intensity of enhancement in
competency, commitment to work and sense
of responsibility is assessed through the
sentences and body language of participants
as: “In early days of job we were annoyed
with the
behaviour
of people;
but now
have
developed
temperam
ent and
patience to listen others”. “Feel great
satisfaction helping people in resolution of
their health related issues”. “Now regularly
visit to field as per plan.”

The above table statistics clearly shows that 83.16% regarding transfer of knowledge with use of
IEC material, almost 100% due to BHU premises located at inappropriate place in the union
council and cost charged to them against provision of services are “dissatisfied” straight away.
Nothing is left to translate on such opinion. Hence ADRA – Pakistan interventions and the
organizations other ADRA support; all are in question marked revealed through community
point of view.
The graphical presentation shows that field staff
normally visits once in a month to households.
However, there is significant portion of irregular
visits to households prevails. Such trend supports
to the version of community members that “field
staff only visits in vaccination days.
People generally seem complaining about the
doctor’s unavailability at BHU. No proper
medicine is provided. Field staff charge cost of
medicine. BHU staff is competent but not
competent enough to deal with amicably. Filed staff mostly visit during vaccination days. No
proper treatment is available at basic health unit. It is apparently seen people are fed up with the
BHU staff as in emergency getting no proper treatment and
dealing with the case. Majority of the people have
observations on doctor’s incompetency in dealing with the
patients. Most of the people are referred to some other
places even in emergency. It has been one voice on non-
availability of any sort of material or transfer of knowledge,
skills, awareness on health related problems, issues, etc. It
is evident from the poll significant number of people are
annoyed with the services of BHU is delivering. This
resultant that either from ADRA – Pakistan interventions or the supported extended by other
NGOs in the area benefits are not extended to the community. People suggest that proper trained
staff should be posted. BHU be equipment with necessary clinical test facility particularly
dealing with mother and child health care. Ambulance services should be provided. Medicine
should be provided free of cost.

 Regarding civil/construction work as per SoW, plaster is done, tuff tiles in the passage fixed,
white wash, distemper is done; waiting room and wash
rooms are constructed. Sewerage, electric motor, boaring
is not provided/completed as scope of work is designed. It
is dire need for electric motor for water supply purpose.
The need recognized and included scope of work; even
commitment was made for restoration of such facility but
the implementing agency did not pay attention to complete
the task. Hence the civil/construction work is graded as
“somewhat satisfactory”.
 Electric items are not provided as per SoW. However as per our demand 10 ceiling fans are
provided whereas initially it was quantified as 03; specification are not taken into account.
The other items like energy saver, tube lights, call bell, wiring; noting is done/provided. With
this view, the job under this category of restoration of services is graded as “somewhat
satisfactory”.
 Wood/Steel work not done as per scope as it was not required as well; but SoW suggests to
do the job. No IEC material is provided, pasted in the premises not even a single poster,
banner, etc. The work is regarded as “very unsatisfied” by the interviewee.

Review on Competency of Field Staff:
The total strength of field staff is 24 with bifurcation as 19 LHWs, 02 LHVs, 02 Midwifes under
01 LHS. In focus group discussion 11 LHWs and LHS spared some time and shared their point
of view about competency level in delivery of assignments.
The summary of brief points raised revealed during discussion is given below:-
On enquiry of training sessions
arranged/supported through ADRA –
Pakistan interventions, the answer from
participants has been the same as responded
by the field staff posted in other sampled
BHUs. However, training sessions on
different set of topics are arranged by the
department or any other helping
organizations in order to enhance the
competency level of working staff at BHU.
It is pertinent to mention that LHS
exclusively acknowledged participation in a
training sessions arranged by ADRRA –
Pakistan, alongwith same cadre staff posted
at other BHUs.
The other supporting organizations arranged
trainings sessions on health and hygiene,
cleanliness, methods to purify drinking
water, prevention of TB, Malaria, etc for
whole of the field staff posted at BHU. Such
training sessions has been helpful is raising
awareness, increase in knowledge and
sensitization about health issues to transfer
the skills to flourish best practices in the
community.
Such training sessions are supported with
the provision of booklets, charts, pamphlets,
brochures, leaflets, pictorials, etc to
strengthen the knowledge and fully
conversant of methods and skills for
effective
demonstrati
on in the
community.
Such
instrument
has worked
as catalyst
in facilitation of job assignments. It is
revealed that very small quantity of such
type of IEC material is provided by ADRA –
Pakistan support. Nothing is also seen
pasted under ADRA monogram on the walls
of BHUs.
The participants shared the enhancement in
their knowledge, skills and demonstrated
behavior through the sentences and body
language as:-
 “We go to the community and explain
hand wash method by doing practical –
Asmat Bibi”
 “Controlled temperament, increased
patience level; now very soft spoken
with the community – Samina Bibi”
 “After training, behavior is changed now
and community feel satisfaction with our
working – Fozia Bashir”
 “Attending training sessions has
increased our confidence level to work
in the community – Samina Nawaz”

increased, skills are enhanced and demonstrated behavior is improved dominated by
sensitization.

plant; must be made available. The community also demands

M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Executive Summary Page 6 of 58 Executive Summary In pursuance of ToRs for doing Muzaffargarh Health Recovery Project (MHRCP) end-term evaluation, exercise commenced as per plan devised in the inception report. In eight union councils 07 out of 16 (43.75%) BHUs and 01 out of 03 (33.33%) RHC of ADRA – Pakistan supported work is taken into account as sample size for evaluation purpose. As per document review ADRA interventions are seen addressing both hard and soft component in recovery of health services at each of the BHU in focused union councils. Therefore, assessment is done in order to get a developed picture on implementation (quality and quantity of work done by the implementing agency) regarding infrastructural improvement in recovery of health services, impact of community the ultimate beneficiary of such restored services; and capacity building of BHUs focused staff maintaining the flow of services once the project interventions are over. Accordingly three layers are picked: BHU officials interviewed at length mainly regarding infrastructural improvement of health services backed by the physical verification of work done by the implementing agency; 61 field staff members are engaged in 07 FGDs to reveal improvement in their knowledge, skills and demonstrated behavior; and at third layer – the community is focused wherein more than 800 households are interviewed covering all three dimensions on project interventions and work done by the implementing agency. On part of physical infrastructural improvement, Paint work done is somehow appreciable and physically seen as good. Civil/Construction/repair/plumbing work is considered well but quality is shattered. The implementing agency has done nothing on the part of provision of electric items and IEC material. BHU officials claim that staff is competent enough to deliver services trained at their own resources or the organization supported other than ADRA – Pakistan implementing agency. The version of field staff is also ratified by the head of the BHU official that implementing agency has not arranged even a single training session. Focusing the interventions on soft component regarding capacity of field staff reveals that project designed interventions to capacitate the BHU staff has been unaddressed by the implementing agency as evident not even a single training sessions is conducted. Regarding soft component, it is pertinent to mention that 93.65% of Field Staff regard somehow improvement passing benefit to community is due interventions other that ADRA – Pakistan. From every corner it is evident that implementing agency has shown least concern with designing, printing and distribution of IEC material that not even a single leaf is produced during the length of the project interventions. In the last but not the least, the vital stakeholder --- the community, the basis of all such initiated interventions are taken into account not only to consult for second opinion on the investment

M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Executive Summary Page 7 of 58 made in improvement of health units infrastructure and level of capacity improvement of BHU staff including field as well; but to have sound understanding on level of community satisfaction in getting benefit through such services revealing the true impact, area of improvement and performance of implementing agency. The community concludes that view point as seemed complaining about improper checkup at BHU, unavailability of medicines and visit of field staff to households only during vaccination days and improper nursing care. There has been consistent views that s that medicines specified for the BHU are sold at medical stores and they are charged cost of medicine at the time of treatment at health unit. Somehow substandard medicines are available in small quantity and provided the same for all sort of disease. None of the clinical test is available there. No IEC material is shared/provided for transfer of knowledge and skills to deal with different diseases and prevention purpose. LHWs conduct, job delivery is somehow appreciated by the community; whereas LHWs/LHV/LHS job satisfaction is in question marked. The community desperately demands for provision of medicines in sufficient and necessary quantity, ensure clinical test facility particularly in delivery cases, 24 hours service, ambulance facility and staff/doctor ensure presence in case of emergency. It concludes that obviously, financial and human resources are not used effectively and fix lashes on part Monitoring and Evaluation during implementation phase. Implementing and donor agency must review the strategies to tight the screws adopting disciplined approach on M&E framework to be applied during implementation phase of such projects in future. As lesson learnt, it is recommended that the donor agency needs to take concrete steps to strengthen ongoing physical monitoring activities during implementation phase of the project; whereas implementing agency may come up with real time sound evidences against use of resources to meet end objectives in letter and spirit. The disbursement of financial resources may be linked with the “mile stone achievements” during implementation phase of the project with sound and concrete ongoing monitoring catalyst.
  • 8. M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Introduction to Evaluation Exercise Page 8 of 58 Introduction to Evaluation Exercise In pursuance of TORs of this assigned exercise and as communicated in the inception report; following objectives are set to meet with the realistic interpretation of the matter:- 1) To come up with the authenticated, un-biased and real time analysis on the work done under ADRA Scope of Work with reference to activities performed by the implementing agency for renovation of health services under MCHRP. 2) To assess the impact, weightage to sustainability and leading to the way forward in lines with scope of work Keeping in view such objectives, exercise is decomposed in three layers to come up with the answer to the question asked for on physical services provided, satisfaction of community getting benefit from these services and competency of BHU and Field Staff delivering such services. On Renovated of health services (applying to physical infrastructure of BHU), view point and feedback on implementation are taken from community and the BHU High Ups supported with bird’s eye view of Field Staff and supplemented with evaluator personal observations. Whereas competency level of BHU Field staff is judged through community feedback primarily and supported with the secondary observation of the evaluator. The competency is focused on three ingredients: Knowledge, Skill and Demonstrated behavior of the officials of BHU and Field Staff. As third layer, the grass root level personnel, face of BHU having close first interaction with the community at their door step is also taken into account to speak about not only ADRA – Pakistan interventions made through the implementing Agency but also come up with their genuine feedback regarding investment on their capacity building. The worked done through this exercise is structured in such a way that sampled and focused BHU/RHC wise review addressing above three layers is discussed and then component wise is summed up in analysis part of both qualitative and quantitative. As agreed in the proposal of this exercise 50% of the targeted ADRA – Pakistan done interventions in BHU/RHC and concerned community in the respective Union Council has been considered in this evaluation exercise resulting to that 07 BHUs and 01 RHC contacted, FGDs conducted with 61 LHWs/LHVs/LHS and more than 800 Households in 08 Union Councils are interviewed.
  • 9. M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria Page 9 of 58 Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria The MCHR Project end-term evaluation is addressed on three fold pertaining to type of main stakeholders: the ultimate personnel posted at Basic Health Unit (for which infrastructural interventions made to make their job convenient), the BHU Field Staff particularly LHWs (their capacity is strengthen) and the end-users (for whom whole of project is done) – the Community. Hence feedback on impact, sustainability and weightage to delivered work is required to coincide at one point both in terms of qualitative and qualitative assessment of this evaluation exercise. Therefore, in order to interpret the feedback on above three ingredients; the evaluation mechanism is designed in such a way that tools used to grab data from the triangle is set and assigned equally consistent evaluation criteria with each of the parameters used in the tool kit. Referring to the respective annexes pertaining to questions asked for; and quantitative responses are recorded as slicing the degree of their opinion and feedback into following way:- Very Satisfied Somewhat dissatisfied Somewhat satisfied Very Dissatisfied Neutral Not sure The interpretation to above quantitative form of feedback is agreed on the used terms as:- Very Satisfied: provides the level of satisfaction to the extent that respective attribute is fulfilled to the extent 80% and leading to upward meeting all obligations associated with that particular parameter. Somewhat Satisfied: The level of satisfaction upto 60% and needs improvement to meet necessary and sufficient conditions for the attribute. Neutral: The level of satisfaction upto 40%; not quite upto the mark; somehow shows neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. Obviously, requirements are not met in letter and spirit but on-redo it can be improved to attain fair level of achievement. Somewhat Dissatisfied: The level of satisfaction upto 20%; Sure that desired specification of the assigned task are not met any way. Minimum standards are not met. Activity is required to perform again. Very Dissatisfied: The level of satisfaction is just upto 10%; The agency disappointed with the performance. Sever observations are reported in every aspect of the activity performed. The feedback on such performance is somehow like “it would have been better not to perform if the result is just 10%”.
  • 10. M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Mechanism and Description of Evaluation Criteria Page 10 of 58 Not Sure: In this concern, on performance the level of satisfaction is Zero% “DRASTIC”. It translates that the implementing agency did not even bother to initiate the prescribed activity. Surprisingly, the stakeholders are ignorant of such type of facility is extended on paper but not physically exists on ground. The implementing agency made commitment to deliver the assignment but seemed to be failed to do so; might it have been reported as activity completed to the funding agency. This is a big question mark not only on performance of the agency but also leaves sever complications for the agency to take on board for further assignments.

M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 11 of 58 Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani ADRA – Pakistan interventions under MCHRP are evaluated on three dimensions: infrastructure improvement at BHU, capacity building field staff in particular, and community satisfaction on level of getting benefits through such investment. Review on Infrastructural Renovated Interventions: With respect to scope of work regarding infrastructural renovated health services, provided by ADRA – Pakistan; review is conducted with physical observation visiting Basic Health Unit and interview with the BHU available High Ups over there. At BHU – Thatta Gurmani; Medical Technician, having length of service more that 20 years spending most of the time posted at BHU is interviewed. It is hereby mentioned that Medical Officer is not posted at BHU. Therefore, the senior most available official is engaged in interview. In lines with ADRA – Pakistan interventions to renovated health services; following key points are revealed on infrastructural improvement at BHU:-  As per scope of work; civil work/construction/repair work done to the extent of repairs nicely and presently very much effective. Hence, the interviewee is “very satisfied” with the work done in this regard.  No Electric item is provide/installed as per list under SoW. No plumbing/boaring work is done; no electric motor is provided, no steel or wooden repair for windows/cupboard is done. Absolutely, noting is done. The interviewee astonished to know that about the said job was supposed to be done. Hence, the interviewee showed totally ignorance as “not sure” and “very dissatisfied”.  Paint work is done according to scope of work; presently seen effective so for; the interviewee is also “very satisfied” with the work done in this regard.  On the point of training to Field Staff, interviewee is of the view that no training is provided to LHWs/LHV/LHS; told that field staff needs training to increase their competency level. However, the staff doing well to the extent of their capacity, courteous and friendly to community, and maintaining cleanliness at BHU is “somewhat satisfied”. Evidence can be examined under heading of “Glimpses from the field”.  Generally speaking, people don’t receive care from services of BHU situated at inappropriate place with respect to the people living at far flung area under jurisdiction of BHU. Presently, 1/4th of BHU population have access to BHU.  No IEC material is provided/ placed at any place in BHU. ADRA – Pakistan monogram is not seen at any place chart/poster or any other material pasted/available at BHU.
  • 12. M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 12 of 58 Review on Competency of Field Staff: At BHU – Thutta Gurmani, with the strength of 19 LHWs, 08 participants are engaged to have discussion about the competency (knowledge, skills and demonstrated behavior at work place) level they achieved during the length of service so for. During the discussion it is revealed that no training for LHWs/LHS/LHV whatsoever is conducted by implementing agency under MCHRP interventions. This version of statement also ratifies the view point take from BHU – Office Incahrge on the focused question. However trainings on the topic of health and hygiene, cleanliness, TB issues, Malaria, Mother and Child Health Care are initiated and conducted from time to time arranged by different organizations and the parent department. No IEC material is provided through ADRA interventions. However field staff received supporting material from other organizations, relevant to job position. Such training content has been very much relevant to the job position of LHWs in particular. The participants shared that training has improved the skills and knowledge used for effectively delivery of assignments. It results people pay attention and listen to follow good health practices and show willingness to mend the ways of living. The skills are learnt through practical demonstration during training sessions and made participants fully conversant with the procedure like hand washing, nail cutting, etc. This practical application has also brought positive change among children and families. With extended good gesture, motivation and acceptable conduct; now people approach to field staff as taking a step ahead to get services in the field. Such training has developed the show good temperament to people dealt with courtesy and friendly environment. Now people have trust to us and share their problems particularly pregnant women. Prior to this most of the women did not share information about their health issues. Now firsthand information is shred with field staff seeking help to have care to the delivery process. On enquiry, participant claim of visiting 10 – 15 house in a month. In order to achieve such level of compet ency field staff has to struggle to control temperament even people show displeasure and rude behavior. The discussion reflected good body language of and motivating gesture translating key words on the floor as after training the field staff has: “confidence”, “Job Description is fully conversant”, “Learnt the skills to motivate people”, “People do agree to our advocacy extending health services to them”, “People do respect.
  • 13. M C H R P – E v a l u a t i o n R e p o r t | Review on Interventions at BHU–Thatta Ghurmani Page 13 of 58 During the discussion, participants seemed complaining about supervisors having no support, coordination and lack of team building gesture. It reflects dire need of extended coordination and cooperation among field staff in the best interest of the community. Hence demonstrated behavior needs to be improved in essence to justify delivery of assignment in a coherent way. Community level of Satisfaction: The people residing around the Basic Health Unit at Thatta Gurmani are visited and in total 95 persons are interviewed. Female and male interviewed proportion is 43.15% and 56.84% respectively. The composition on marital status is shown in the table.

The figures show satisfaction on transfer of knowledge, skill using such material is due to other than ADRA supported interventions. Majority of the people are very dissatisfied with location of BHU as situated at far flung in the union council to approach resulting to that 96.84% are dissatisfied with the cost to bear against the level of service they get at BHU. Majority of the people come up with the version that LHWs visit to the house once in a month. Rest of the percentage ratifies that community point of view that “field staff visits only in vaccination days”. The general perception of the community is that no proper and concentrated consultation and treatment is received at BHU level. Field staff only takes care in vaccination days. Depending on the circumstances, conduct of field staff and BHU posted members change accordingly. Cost of medicine is charged. It is also observed that medical officer is posted on temporary basis; this results in ignorance and dame care attitude towards service delivery. It has been desperate need of community about permanent on consistent basis posting of medical consultant at BHU. This 94.74% the people say “Yes” to “somehow getting services” mixed with the interventions other than ADRA – Pakistan. There comes the suggestion that BHU staff must observe full working hours and rest assured their availability in emergency cases. Clinical test facility like USG, X-ray, blood test and pregnancy test facility must be arranged. Issue rest with the consultant call at private clinics. Ambulance service should be started to provide benefit to the community as a whole. 9.47% 8.42% 3.16% 4.21% 72.63% 2.11% 0.00% 50.00% 100.00% Fortnightly Irregular Visit Never Visited On Weekly Basis Once a Month Visit on Request Frequency of LHWs Visit to HH 5.26 % 94.7 4% Poll on General Care No Yes
