A great way to celebrate community health workers is to ensure they have reliable and affordable mobility to reach those they serve. In many parts of the world, CHWs must walk hours per day to reach patients, reducing efficiency and effectiveness. To accelerate health systems strengthening in a sustainable manner, CHWs need mobility support. Bicycles are part of that solution. Our data shows CHWs with bicycles reach up to 88% more patients than CHWs without bicycles, and their retention rate rises up to 95%. We call on governments to integrate mobility into CHW policies and programs. https://lnkd.in/dy7ME5-t

🌧️ Embracing the cold and grey day by reflecting on self-care. Amidst the gloom, dedicating a moment to uplift ourselves can make a significant difference. I've received valuable responses to the survey on talking support therapies in Keighley, Worth & Aire Valley areas. 🗣️ The feedback highlights the challenges faced by local support groups, emphasising the need for trust and resources. 📊 Originally aimed at shaping a support group, the survey has evolved to foster connections with existing services and spread the message of opening up, even on the grayest days. Please spare a minute to complete the survey, contributing to a collective effort to enhance community well-being. Whether or not a new group emerges, I'm committed to collaborating with local services, building connections, and raising awareness. 🤝 🌐 Calling on local community support service providers/volunteers to connect and participate in the survey. Let's amplify the dialogue and support each other, no matter how grey it may seem.

Community engagement is critical to the success of interventions like PMC, to promote target behaviors, foster community ownership, and enable feedback between caregivers, community members, providers, and decision-makers at all levels of the health system. At the beginning of the project, human-centered design techniques were used to elevate the voices and experiences of key community stakeholders in each partner country. More than one year into PMC implementation through Plus Project, uptake is high and effective strategies are in place to reach children lost to follow-up because of early community buy-in.

These assessments will definitely drive improvement and provide important information ✅
"We hope our assessments help to drive improvement and parity of esteem for the adult social care sector. We will all either use our local authorities for social care at some point in our lives or a loved one will, so it really matters to everybody how local authorities are functioning and how they are delivering on their duties. And our public reports and ratings will enable people to see what their local authority is doing, how it compares to others, the current risks and challenges within that local authority area, and the impact it has on local people. The knowledge people have from those reports about what their local authority is doing means they’ll be able to hold them to account for things where they might not be doing as well. And we can also showcase best practice and innovative ways that local authorities care for and support people." — Mary Cridge, Director of adult social care Catch the full question and answer session, which was hosted by Community Care, below. Expect an update on our local authority assessment pilots, our longer term approach, how we’re talking to frontline staff and much more.
