Health Sector RecoveryPlan
Linked to the Presidential Health Sector Recovery Plan (1st phase - 9 months)Health Sector Recovery Framework – 5 Outputs: Patient & Health worker Safety, Health work force, Essential Healthcare Services, Community Ownership & Information & Surveillance.
Immediate outcome Indicators (ERC to contribute to)% of health facilities compliant with infection prevention and control measures% of 40 Hospitals and 149 CHCs with triage and isolation capacity% of Hospitals and CHCs with access to safe water% of PHUs with improved sanitation facilities
Project Titles & Goals
Project Titles: Support to WASH facilities in Community Health Centres (CHCs)Strengthening Infection Prevention Control & WASH Infrastructure in Government Hospitals in Sierra Leone
Project Timelines: 25th May 2015 to 25th April 2016 – CHC Project 15th April 2015 to 28th February 2016 – Hospitals IPC Project
Goal (both projects): Resurgence of Ebola is Prevented
Outcome: Increased safe access to comprehensive health services at CHCs for patients in Sierra LeoneIncreased safe access to comprehensive health services at government hospitals for patients in Sierra Leone.
Expected Results
CHC Project: •To Improve water supply and distribution systems in 128 CHCs to meet the minimum water demands in order to deliver safe health services and comply with IPC protocals•To improve sanitation in 128 to meet the sanitation standards and improve IPC•To improve the waste management infrastructure in 128 CHCs to meet the minimum standards for IPC•To improve the facility management of WASH infrastructure at 128 CHCs to ensure sustainability of the system through proper operation and maintenance•To ensure that all 128 CHCs have screening stations for out patients and safe isolation areas for patients suspected of EVD or another highly communicable disease.
Hospitals IPC Project: •To improve WASH services and infrastructure in 22 government hospitals to ensure staff are able to adhere to IPC protocols and standards.

Scope of WASH Activities
Water Supply:Establishing sustained water supply through rehabilitation of existing/establishing new water sources, rehabilitation of existing/installing new storage facilities, rehabilitating water distribution systems and ensuring functional water access points at all locations where medical procures are undertaken through rehabilitation of the existing non-functional facilities/installation of new facilities.
Water Quality: Supporting Hospital staff and the MoWR on water quality testing and monitoring
Sanitation: Establishing toilets and shower/bathroom facilities through rehabilitating existing dilapidated facilities/constructing new ones, rehabilitation of existing waste water systems and onsite waste water disposal facilities (septic tanks) or construction of new ones where applicable.
Healthcare Waste Management: Establishing health care waste segregation system through provision of color coded waste collection bins at all locations where waste is generated. Establishing health care waste management facilities (Incinerators, Ash pits, Organic pits and sharps pits) through rehabilitation of the dilapidated existing facilities/construction of new ones.
Training: Support Strengthening the capacity of hospital staff in operation, maintenance and management of the WASH facilities in Health Facilities.
Expected Hardware outputs in CHCs
Water Supply & Quality: • New/rehabilitated water supply sources equipped with pumps• New/rehabilitated water storage tanks - elevated • New/rehabilitated water distribution systems; water access points • Existing water quality testing, treatment and monitoring mechanism
Sanitation: • New/rehabilitated gender disaggregated toilets/latrines and showers/bathroom facilities• New/rehabilitated septic tanks, soak away pits• Functional hand washing facilities• Surface run off drainage systems (where applicable)
Healthcare Waste Management: • Provision of waste collection bins and onsite transportation• Functional waste pits [organic/placenta, sharps]• New/repaired incinerators with ash pits• Fenced off waste management area Screening & Isolation Facilities:
Expected Hardware outputs in Hospitals
Water Supply & Quality: • New/rehabilitated water supply sources equipped with pumps (shared with UNOPS)• New/rehabilitated water storage tanks - elevated • New/rehabilitated water distribution systems; water access points • Existing water quality testing, treatment and monitoring mechanism
Sanitation: • New/rehabilitated gender disaggregated toilets/latrines and showers/bathroom facilities• New/rehabilitated septic tanks, soak away pits• Functional hand washing facilities• Surface run off drainage systems (where applicable)
Healthcare Waste Management: (Fully being undertaken by UNOPS) • Provision of waste collection bins and onsite transportation [ERC Partners]• Functional waste pits [organic/placenta, sharps]• New/repaired incinerators with ash pits• Fenced off waste management area Screening & Isolation Facilities:
Progress to-date:
• All Coordination efforts between ERC and UNOPS completed – Water sources and Health care waste management facilities activities in 20 Hospitals
• Working towards strengthening coordination efforts between ERC and FWC• Strengthened coordination efforts with all actors targeting health facilities for any infrastructure
activities (ERC, UNFPA, UNOPS, UNICEF)• All ERC partners have resubmitted their SLAs as required by the MoHS (Approvals, reviews)• Engagement of partners and MoHS in developing ‘Standards/Basic Guidelines and Designs’ to
harmonize WASH infrastructure activities in health facilities• Out of 20 Hospitals, 1 has made substantial progress in water supply (sources, storage, access
points within various service points) and sanitation activities. Activities on going in the other targeted Hospitals (after UNOPS/ERC coordination matrix completed)
• MoHS & MoWR supported by ERC partners led WASH assessments targeting PHUs in 12 districts led by MoHS & MoWR – MoHS to lead in generating the Assessment report.
Challenges/Opportunities
• Strengthening Coordination of (WASH) Infrastructure activities in all health facilities; also be part of National WASH Coordination forum.
• Strengthened MoHS involvement in Coordinating activities through introduction of the SLA approach for all projects targeting health facilities
• An opportunity for all partners implementing WASH in Health facilities, MoHS and MoWR to start thinking of developing basic guidelines/standards for WASH in health facilities (Harmonized)
• Access to in-door sanitation facilities by the disabled persons in some of the existing health facilities???
• Screening/Isolation Guidelines/Procedures at Various facility levels – define scope of facilities to be put up
• Increased scope of assessments to cover all PHUs in 12 districts; having information on coverage is critical for future planning of improvements.
• Availability of certain critical project inputs in the local market – refractory bricks, Taps, pumps
