Although case formulation (CF) has been widely regarded in cognitive behavioural therapy manuals as beneficial, there is limited empirical research examining how cl...ients and therapists experience the process. Aim: This study aimed to explore young people’s reactions to CF in treatment for PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and FEP

case management services. Développé par MalariaCare, ce module aide les superviseurs de santé à améliorer la prise en charge du paludisme grave en leur proposant un apprentissage et un mentorat ciblés et basés sur des cas. ...Il leur fournit les outils nécessaires pour guider les prestataires de soins de santé lors des visites de formation et de supervision de proximité (OTSS). Conçu pour renforcer les compétences en matière de diagnostic et de traitement, il se concentre notamment sur les domaines souvent négligés, comme le paludisme grave. Il utilise des études de cas réels et des discussions guidées pour évaluer et améliorer la compréhension clinique.

This has set in motion the implementation phase for Ghana, which is a long awaited... event since the drafting of the Policy started in 2011. This  case  study,  whilst  limited  in  its  ability  to  interact  with  all  stakeholders, has identified entrypoints within the operational divisions of Ghana Health Services,as potential areas where the AMR policy platform may seek to embed AMR activities. Much work has already been done within Ghana to identify the key entrypoints within the various ministries and government agencieswhere AMR can be incorporated. These stakeholders already form part of the AMR Policy Platform which is the governance structure for AMR and have been participating actively in the development of the AMR Policy and NAP activities formulation.

This fourth revision of the manual reflects recent clinical experience and research findings in diarrhoea case management. Compared to earlier versions, it includes revised guidelines on the management of children with acute diarrhoea using th...e new reduced (low) osmolarity ORS formulation and using zinc supplements, which have been shown to reduce duration and severity of diarrhoeal episodes, and revised guidelines for the management of bloody diarrhoea. Guidelines in the manual are based on the revised WHO chart that are included at the end of this document.

Efforts have been made to search for substantiated references in producing this manual of extemporaneous preparations. However, the lists of compounded items in this manual are not exhaustive. Preparations included in the manual are  for  ingredients  available  commercially  but  not  in  the  required  dosage  form for therapy and thus, necessitate extemporaneous preparations.

The health services delivery system in Zambia is pyramid in structure, with primary healthcare (PHC) services at community level, at the base, followed by first and second level hospitals at distric...t and provincial levels, respectively, and third level (tertiary) services at national level. Notably, primary health services are free in Zambia and health service providers are either governmentowned or not-for-profit facilities. 
Over the years, resource constraints have affected the quality and extent of healthcare services at all levels, requiring the mobilisation of additional resources for the sector. In doing so, prioritisation was high on the agenda of health sector reform. The EHB, therefore, prioritises interventions with the highest impact on the population, enabling policy makers to revisit priority diseases and conditions and to cost the services provided at each level of facility. Other key issues in developing the EHB in Zambia have included the need to have cost-effective services and cost per capita of services for more systematic budgeting, to rank interventions and to validate and cost the health benefit package as a whole.
