CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
World widely, the concept of primary health care (PHC) originated from the concern which many world health organization (WHO) member countries showed about providing their rural and urban medication underserved population with essential health care.
The almata declaration of 1978 UNICEF/WHO, 1978 defined primary health care as “essential health care based on practical, scientifically sound and socially acceptably methods and technology made universally accessible to individual and families in the community through their full participation and at a cost that the community and country can afford to maintain at every stage of their development in the spirit of reliance and self determination.
It forms an integral part both of the country’s health system of which is the central functions and main focus and of the overall social and economic development of the community. During the same conference, eight essential components of the primary health care were identified and one of these components was “immunization against the major infectious diseases”, to achieve health for all by the year 2000.
The world health organization (WHO) established the expanded programme on immunization (EPI) in 1971. the inclusion of immunization against the major infectious disease as one of the component of primary health care in the almata document of 1978 was a re-affirmation of the need to combat preventable diseases, especially in developing countries including Nigeria using vaccines. The expanded programme on immunization (EPI) thus had two major long term goals (WHO) 1976
- To immunize at least 80% of the susceptible population of children between ages of 0-24 month by 1990.
- To establish adequate surveillance system for the target diseases and the monitoring and evaluation system of expanded programme on immunization activities. Preventable diseases exact a tremendous tool in childhood illness, death and disability in the developing countries.
In July 1996, the programme was renamed national programme on immunization (NPI) to emphasize the country’s ownership of the programme. This was established under the national programme on immunization (NPI) decree of 12th august 1997 as a prostate of the federal ministry of health. World health organization has estimated that five million children die each year from the eight national programme on immunization target diseases. The programme is designed to protect children from 0-59 months against the occurrence of the following deadly diseases such as:
- Poliomyelitis
- Diphtheria
- Tetanus
- Tuberculosis
- Yellow fever
- Hepatitis B
- Measles
Service delivery system will be a key component to be addressed in order to improve routine immunization services. Other areas of focus include update of current immunization policy to include safety of injection and waste disposal management issues. Training of immunization personnel rehabilitation and expansion of vaccine supply and distribution, strengthening of surveillance system advocacy and social mobilization, collaboration with private sector will also be fostered. The inter-agency co-ordinating committee (ICC) will expand to include more members and will take part in mobilizing resources as well as monitoring plan, implementation and fund utilization. Yearly target for immunization coverage had been seen that will allow evaluation of the progress made.
The estimated budget for the implementation of the planned activities in US $678,501.11s.
However the annual plans derived from 5-years plan will provide more accurate figures for the yearly implementation of the programme activities.
In Etsako West Local Government of Edo States, national programme on immunization has progressed for fourteen years now. However, a number of constraints have slowed down the implementation of NPI. Some of these, according to the federal ministry of health and the state ministry of health include
- Low level of awareness
- Inadequate funding
- Inadequate vaccine
- Lack of adequate publicity and coverage
- Inadequate staffing
- Very little multisectional collaboration
- Physical inaccessibility
- Inadequate community participation
- Poor supervision
- Transportation
This research was therefore focused on identifying those factors that have been affecting the implementation of NPI in Etsako west local government area from the period of its inception in 1991 up to July 2011.
The national programme on immunization particular reference to the basic strategies outlined for a successful implementation of NPI at the state and local government area levels.
The following area are;
- Funding
- Community participation
- Training
- Multi sectoral or management
- Extent of health education
- Supervisory
Were critically examined to see it they have been contributory factors to the implementation NPI in Etsako west local government area. The five year immunization figures by antigen were examined to ascertain performance so far in the local government area paying particular attention to the 2011 national immunization days (NIF 2011) campaign figures for Etsako west local government area as campaign have been found to enhance some immunization factors in (NPI) notably multi sectoral co-operation and community participation.
