GOALS AND PRINCIPLES OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE
The ultimate goal of primary health care is the attainment of better health services for all. It is for this reason that World Health Organization (WHO), has identified five key elements to achieving this goal:reducing exclusion and social disparities in health (universal coverage reforms); organizing health services around people's needs and expectations (service delivery reforms); integrating health into all sectors (public policy...

What is Primary Health Care?
Primary health care (PHC) refers to "essential health care" that is based on scientifically sound and socially acceptable methods and technology, which make universal health care universally accessible to individuals and families in a community. It is through their full participation... and at a cost that the community and the country can afford to maintain at every stage of their development in the spirit of self-reliance and self- determination". In other words, PHC is an approach to health beyond the traditional health care system that focuses on health equity- producing social policy. PHC includes all areas that play a role in health, such as access to health services, environment and lifestyle. Thus, primary health care and public health measures, taken together, may be considered as the cornerstones of universal health systems. This ideal model of health care was adopted in the declaration of the International Conference on Primary Health Care held in Alma Ata , Kazakhstan in 1978 (known as the "Alma Ata Declaration "), and became a core concept of the World Health Organization's goal of Health for all. The Alma- Ata Conference mobilized a "Primary Health Care movement" of professionals and institutions, governments and civil society organizations, researchers and grassroots organizations that undertook to tackle the "politically, socially and economically unacceptable" health inequalities in all countries. There were many factors that inspired PHC; a prominent example is the Barefoot doctors of China. ~wikipedia.com

Registering for October/November examinations remains a unknown fate for most students who have fees arrears in most institutions. Unanswered questions are still hovering over the minds of these students, what is going to happen to them?, are they going to register for their exams this year?, what if they are not allowed to register?. This is exactly the time the intervention of those responsible for us is extremely needed. PLEASE DO SOMETHING!

Why is it that Environmental Health students always bear their burdens and grievances on their own while the nursing students are supported all the way through their diplomas yet we belong to the same ministry?

Evening
The week has finally arrived where mwana wemunhu is going to descend on the white paper to exhibit what has been learnt for the last nine months. For now it has been a hectic 3 weeks in the life of a TEHT, pages rustling throughout the day, voices whispering in near-empty lecturerooms all in a bid to polish what has been gained.
Wish u all the best

Zimbabwe has also shown remarkable progress towards malaria pre-elimination in some districts. At 80 percent success rate, we have also recorded significant advancements in TB treatment. All these are laudable milestones. What seemed... improbable just ten years ago is being achieved thanks to hard work and commitment of Zimbabwe’s health officials and strong partnerships between the government and international donors.~ Dr Henry Madzorera

The Sub Sahara region continues to battle with the HIV and AIDS pandemic as the most affected region in the world. Zimbabwe had an estimated prevalence of HIV pegged at 13.6% in 2010. By the end of 2009, approximately 1,1 million people in the country were... living with HIV and AIDS. Although the estimated annual AIDS deaths decreased from 123,000 in 2006 to 84,000 at the end of 2009, AIDS remains a leading cause of death in Zimbabwe. The dual epidemic of TB and HIV also continues to be a major factor in morbidity and mortality among PLHIV, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, undermining efforts to prevent and control HIV. In Zimbabwe and it is estimated that approximately 80% of TB cases are co-infected with HIV. It is estimated that 25% of all children in Zimbabwe are orphaned due to AIDS~ The battle rages on... We still have a great deal of work out there.
