Job Description
LonAdd HR Consultancy Plc (www.lonadd.com) is a Recruitment & Outsourcing Company based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, with branch offices in Dukem and Hawassa. We are looking to recruit a qualified candidate on behalf of our client.
Purpose: Third-Party Monitor (TPM) will be deployed to emergency zones/woredas to monitor and strengthen Nutrition supply chain management in at zonal, woreda and health facility level.
Background
Over the last decade, Ethiopia has shown impressive progress in improving the nutritional status of children and tackling the main causes of morbidity and mortality. Part of the success is attributed to support being provided in improving the quality of care, especially at the service delivery point level and through the health extension program (HEP).
The HEP as the Government's flagship program providing preventative and curative health and nutrition services at the community level throughout the country, therefore, warrants continued support. As one of the main interventions, the community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) programmer to treat and manage severe acute malnutrition, is embedded within the HEP and is delivered through more than 18,000 health facilities nationwide. Again, the government has recently approved the acute malnutrition guidelines to align with the international standards that have been proven locally and elsewhere to improve the quality care and survival of children. The CMAM approach includes four components: Community Mobilization, outpatient therapeutic feeding program (OTP) where 90-95 % of all cases are managed through health posts or health centers at Keble and woreda level; inpatient care for children with severe acute malnutrition suffering from complications, treated at stabilization centers (SC) at health centers or referral hospitals; and Targeted Supplementary Feeding Program (TSFP) to manage and treat moderate acute malnutrition among children under five years and pregnant and lactating women. While service expansion is impressive across the country, in Developing Regional States (DRS) ensuring the quality of CMAM services remains a challenge, largely due to high staff turnover especially in remote/ hard to reach areas and requires continued attention and support. Also, service delivery challenges have been placed on the program due to climate change-induced displacements and displacements due to insecurity caused by inter-community strife. The internally displaced persons placed a burden on the already fragile service delivery program through the HEP across many areas in the regions. These circumstances provide a big challenge for the human resource needs for an optimal nutrition response to vulnerable children.
