Project Overview

The TB REACH Wave 11 Project is designed to address existing knowledge and skill gaps in chronic respiratory disease (CRD) care at primary healthcare units (PHCUs) by extending respiratory care services to diverse and often underserved groups within the selected zones. We planned to reach a wide array of individuals, including those in a detention center who may lack consistent access to healthcare. It will also target transient workers at local construction sites, whose mobile lifestyle often limits their interaction with healthcare services. Additionally, semi-pastoralist communities across three zones will benefit from tailored outreach, meeting their unique needs through culturally sensitive approaches.

Women working in agricultural fields in these zones, who may be exposed to respiratory health risks, are also a focus group. Elderly individuals, often homebound and with limited access to specialized care, will receive targeted service. Individuals attending follow-up clinics, outpatient departments, and maternal and child health (MCH) services will be engaged to ensure continuity of care. We will address youth engaging in risky behaviors, such as smoking and substance abuse, particularly in key areas across intervention zones. The overall approach is designed to achieve the project's outlined outcomes.
