Description:

These briefs are primarily intended for directors and managers of community- based health care programmes—whether working within ministries of health, international donor agencies or non-government organizations. This brief takes up a number of likely questions about the management functions of the nurses in charge of small, local health facilities:

  • How prepared are “nurses in charge” for carrying out administrative and management functions?
  • How should they relate to the new management committees?
  • What additional training do they need?
  • What are the lessons from the Kwale project—lessons about the training of nurses—that can be applied elsewhere? [publisher’s description]
