HeRAMS Ituri Baseline Report 2023: Operational status of the health system
A comprehensive mapping of the operational status of health facilities
Overview
The Health Resources and Services Availability Monitoring System (HeRAMS) aims to provide decision-makers and health stakeholders at large with vital and up-to-date information on the availability of essential health resources and services, help them identify gaps, and determine priorities for intervention.
HeRAMS has been deployed in Ituri, Democratic Republic of the Congo since October 2022 and has allowed for the assessment of 1027 health service delivery units across the country. The information presented in this report is derived from data reported up to November 24th, 2023. While this HeRAMS deployment remains ongoing and data verification and validation continue, the analysis presented here is not final and has been produced solely to inform operations.
This is the first report of the HeRAMS Ituri Baseline Report 2023 series focusing on the operational status of health facilities, including the level and type of support provided by partners and availability of basic amenities. For more in-depth information on the availability of essential health services and barriers impeding service delivery, specialized reports are available covering:
- general clinical and trauma care services,
- child health and nutrition services,
- communicable disease services,
- sexual and reproductive health services, and
- non-communicable disease and mental health services.
