PHOTC Training Needs Assessment (TNA) Report 2023: Integration of Community Health It is important for the PHOTC to align the Public Health Officers training to include community health which is one of the core functions of Public Health. PHOs should participate in the implementation of Community Health Services Act and also be members of the community health committees to be established or already established. As one of the gaps identified during the Focus Group Discussions in the five counties visited the community health as a subject was found wanting. It is also noted that unless Public Health adopted community health degree holders as part of the Public Health profession members, they are likely to form a separate professional body which is likely to be more relevant to the health needs of the country in terms of linking the health service to the household level and therefore appealing more to the Universal Health Care as an international call. Public Health Officers should be part of the national Community Strategy with improvement in the technological implementation.

I haven't written since yesterday. I even missed the CHESOA × KMTCCCAN webinar about after graduation. And now I will write. We have a BSc PHOs problem. With this thinking Kerubo will still lose any race if she competes with KMTC PHOs too. She is calling herself EHP, NOT a PHO. Most likely she doesn't know who a PHO is. - With that any race she has already half lost it If you are calling yourself a EHP, not a PHO, why are you surprised you always have to explain your profession? BSc PHOs complain too much. Kerubo did her BSc after her masters. - Join the dots If you don't put efforts in class, attachment and internship then don't expect the job market to be easier on you. Let's be honest too. It is difficult to get the best courses. Who miss tier 1 courses settle for tier 2. Who don't get grades for a degree course opt for a diploma course they qualify for. Others can't qualify for a diploma so are forced to settle for a certificate course. Every child knows this. Let's stop blaming the system too. This is about demand and supply. There's demand for courses. There's demand for jobs. We should be honest with PHOs who don't find our course fit for them. You have the option to accept being a PHO or just do another better course where things aren't saddening. Applying PHOs jobs is a personal decision. PHOs are even allowed to apply non-PHOs jobs as long as you qualify and you can do it. - It is a choice The best KCSE / senior school graduates go for the best courses where even the cut off points are high. - You know them Many PHOs didn't have a PHOs course as their preferred course when sitting for exams. We have 43 health cadres. - So the grouping will always be there PHOs are just 5% of the health professionals in Kenya. - And if you count all the trained health professionals that 5% will only go lower By being 5% and seeing how students end up doing a PHOs course we already know where we are. There are PHOs jobs where only PHOs are qualified to apply. There are jobs where PHOs are among the recognised qualifications. Then there other jobs PHOs can do. Ukishajidharau already uko nje. As a professional you have a role to convince the employer about your value too. - If you don't sell your profession, who will? You can sell your trade by joining APHOK, KEHPHPU and registering with PHOTC. You can't want to be recognised but feel bad when you are among the others. Ni sisi kwa sisi tuinue Bora Afya ili ituinue.
