Developing a non-communicable disease (NCD) care package for your country context 바카라 사이트“ experiences from Nigeria
This case study shares experiences of adapting and piloting this package in Nigeria
Abstract
Reducing the burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) has become a global priority. NCDs kill 38 million people each year. Almost three quarters of NCD deaths - 28 million - occur in LMICs. 16 million NCD deaths occur before the age of 70; 82% of these 바카라 사이트˜premature바카라 사이트™ deaths occur in LMICs.
To help address this, COMDIS have worked with our partner NGOs and ministries of health in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Uganda and Nigeria to develop a NCD care package and train-the-trainer modules. This case study shares our experiences of adapting and piloting the package in Nigeria, and highlights some of the key considerations for other organisations looking to develop a similar intervention in their own country.
This research is an output from the COMDIS-HSD Programme which is led by the University of Leeds
