1 TERMS OF REFFRENCE FOR A COMMUNITY BASED INTERVENTION TO PROMOTE EARLY REGISTRATION FOR ANTENATAL CARE SERVICES AMONG PREGNANT WOMEN IN DAR ES SALAAM INTRODUCTION Management and Development for Health (MDH) is a leading non-profit Tanzanian public health organization that focuses primarily on public health service, education and research in Tanzania. MDH seeks to advance the public health and health care interests of the people of Tanzania through collaboration with the government, non-governmental institutions, academic institutions, and the private sector. MDH works with its collaborators to address key public health challenges in Tanzania including communicable diseases such as HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria; Maternal, new-born and child health (MNCH) issues; as well as non-communicable diseases. MDH realise its vision of a healthy and prosperous society by addressing public health priorities through evidence-based interventions and partnership. MDH is in its fourth year of implementing the MDH Kagera (GH ) project, a comprehensive HIV Prevention, Care and Treatment program funded by the United States Government President s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. The overall aim of the project is to contribute towards improving quality and outcomes of HIV prevention, care and treatment services in Tanzania. In MNCH settings this includes: prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT) through the use of lifelong anti-retroviral therapy (ART) for all HIV-positive pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as comprehensive care for infants born to HIV-positive mothers. Early registration for ANC services, during the first 3 months of pregnancy, is an important entry point for effective PMTCT and Focused Antenatal Care (FANC) services. It enables early HIV testing and counselling (HTC) of pregnant women and their partners, and linkage to ART and PMTCT for those testing HIV-positive. To realise the national goal of elimination of mother-tochild transmission of HIV (emtct), all pregnant women should be encouraged and supported to start ANC services within the first 3 months of pregnancy. Nevertheless, the 2015/16 Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey (TDHS) estimates that only 25% of women in mainland Tanzania registered for ANC services before the fourth month of pregnancy. In Dar es Salaam, the national District Health Information System (DHIS-2) database indicate that between 1 st Oct th Sep 2016 only 23,007(15%) of pregnant women registered for ANC before 3 months of pregnancy. It is in this regard, in the current project year (2016/17), MDH seeks to partner with and engage a credible Civil Society Organization (CSO) to implement a community-based intervention to promote and improve early registration for ANC services among pregnant women in Dar es Salaam, 1
2 Tanzania. Through these efforts, MDH hopes to accelerate efforts to achieve the national goal of elimination of HIV transmission from HIV-positive mothers to their babies SCOPE OF WORK; At the onset/outset of the project, MDH will utilize the technical expertise of identified CSOs to work with CHWs to increase early uptake of ANC services and create awareness at the community on importance of early booking. Selected CSO will work hand in hand with MDH to conduct community sensitization meetings and engage CHWs and local community leaders to identify pregnant women early (before 12 weeks of pregnancy), register and refer them to health facilities for early ANC registration and care. CHWs will be followed up weekly with focal persons to assess progress, strategies and best approaches. This intervention will start in 50 wards (10 from each five districts) reported with high population but low number of pregnant registered at nearby health facilities. This intervention will facilitate at least 77,290 (50%) of pregnant women to register for ANC early (before 3 months of pregnancy) by the end of September These efforts will allow for timely HTC among women registering for ANC early. Subsequent, pregnant women testing HIV-positive will be timely linked to ART, PMTCT and other existing support services. Objectives 1. To raise awareness to 510 among community health workers and community leaders from 51 (50%) Dar es Salaam wards on early (<3months pregnant) registration of new pregnant women for antenatal care by September To increase the number of pregnant women registering for antenatal care services early (<3 months pregnant) to 77,290 (50%) in Dar es Salaam by September To engage community leaders and community health workers from 51 (50%) Dar es Salaam wards in promoting and monitoring progress on early registration of new pregnant women Target group: - Primary target: Pregnant women in 51 Dar es Salaam ward - Secondary target: o Women of reproductive age in 51 Dar es Salaam wards o Community health workers from 51 Dar es Salaam wards o Community leaders from 51 Dar es Salaam wards Implementation strategy The implementation of this project will be in three phases Phase I: Introductory Phase.
