South Sudan Integrated Service Delivery Program HHP Regular Supervision HHPs were linked to the nearest facility HF Supervisors received and reviewed HHP reporting forms, restocked miso and reporting forms, supervised counseling sessions and provided other support as needed Implementing partner focal person held meetings with HHPs on a monthly basis to review and collect reporting reporting forms, restock miso, meetings with community leaders
18
South Sudan Integrated Service Delivery Program Lessons Learned Pictures, role plays, group discussion and supervised community practice were effective in training HHPs. Classroom training and supervised community practice helped HHPs gain confidence in counseling. HHPs need close supportive supervision during counseling sessions and for data collection. Training HFS using models (MamaNatalie) added a value to the skills training since facility caseload for practice is low. Misoprostol can be used as an option in the absence of oxytocin MCHWs can still provide modified AMTSL using misoprostol.
