EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BY THE DISTRICT MANAGER

The District Health Plan will give a brief overview of the 2016/2017 previous performance and

outline the Districts aspirations based on the diseases burden and the outcomes of the

indicators as per District Health Barometer 2016 2017.

1 DISTRICT SERVICE DELIVERY PERFORMANCE

Harry Gwala health district has performed fairly well in previous years in terms of strategic

priority programmes though there are challenges to meet some of the set targets. These

challenges have been identified and will be addresses in this plan.

PHC SERVICES

PHC Re engineering

Family health teams are in place though not enough to cover entire district due to financial

constraints which made it impossible to enrol teams to entire district. This has contributed to

below target performance of PHC utilisation rate 2.7 in 2016/17

School health teams have performed exceptionally well in terms of schools that were

accredited as health promoting school which totalled to 20 schools for previous year

2017/18.

The challenge remained with meeting the targets of screening of grades R and 8 thus the

district aspiration being increase PHC utilisation and increase screening of Grade R and 8

IDEAL CLINIC REALISATION AND MAINTAINANCE (ICRM)

National and Provincial assessment of clinics is still ongoing, marked achievements noted at

UMzimkhulu supported clinics all have achieved the status. Focus will be at Dr. NDZ clinics

and Ubuhlebezwe clinics for the next 3yr cycle.

The challenge in some of the clinics is related to infrastructure especially at NDZ sub-district.

The district aspiration is to increase the number of facilities scoring from 53%to above 80%

and the vital measures scoring on NCS from 0% to 100% BY 2021.

HIV and AIDS

HIV and AIDS nerve centre meetings and reviews are in place, implementation of Universal

testing and treatment (UTT) and capacitation of health care workers on key population

service provision is ongoing. Challenges identified: low paediatric initiation, low viral load

done and increasing numbers of loss to follow up. These challenges will be addressed in this

three year plan. The district interventions will focus on NIMART training acceleration plan and

mentorship especially in support of paediatric initiation , retaining clients on treatment and

active defaulter tracing at all levels assisted by supporting partner BroadReach.

TB CONTROL PROGRAM

TB control program has performed well this financial year as it is on track with the 90/90/90

strategic goals targets; with achievements of 92% TB on Success rate ; 85 % Cure rate; death

rate at 4 % below; and the loss to follow up (Defaulter)rate at 3%. The district is still struggling

with meeting roll out targets for TIER.Net TB module.

Strategies on clinical, systems and community interventions are in place to upscale the roll

out with inclusion of Sub districts teams and supporting partner (BroadReach).

District aspiration will focus on to reduce HIV incidence using 90/90/90 strategy.

MCWHN

The MNCWH program has remarkable improved Maternal, Child and Women’s Health and

has managed to achieve low baby PCR positivity rate around 10 weeks to 1%, under 5 year

severe acute malnutrition fatality rate at 2.1%.

Maternal death is within 95/100 000 and cervical cancer screening at 80%.

Despite the hard work and engagements the District is still struggling to achieve targets on

immunization coverage under 1 year, couple year protection rate, child under 1year

mortality and in patient early neonatal death rate.

Immunisation coverage has improved at UMzimkhulu and Ubuhlebezwe sub districts. Focus

for the district will be in the remaining sub districts DR.NDZ and Ubuhlebezwe.

The district aspiration will channel strategies and resources towards reducing neonatal

deaths and under 5 year’s mortality rate.

Women’s health will focus on improving couple year protection rate and decreasing

teenage pregnancy.

NON COMMUNICABLE DISEASES

Non Communicable Diseases have become the 3rd leading cause of death for ages

between 25-64 years and 65 and above both in males and females in Harry Gwala district as

per 2010-2016 barometers. Though screening services has improved in terms of targets, it is

not convincing that all deserving clients have been initiated on treatment and well

managed. Cataract surgeries have improved; as the projection shows that the district will

meet the target of 700 clients since for the past 3 quarters of 2017/18 698 cataracts were

conducted.

Shortage of ophthalmic nurses and optometrists in the district has negatively affected eye

care services.

Lack of community awareness in screening and dangers of chronic conditions has drastically

increased the risk mortality and morbidity.

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 6 of 78

The district will be focusing on community awareness, community screening campaigns and

roll out of Palliative care services. Integration of 90-90-90 strategies in management of NCD

will be rolled out in the next 3 year cycle.

SUPPORT SERVICES

Pharmaceuticals

The District Pharmaceutical services are currently managing CCMDD in the entire district. The

district has achieved to reduce stock out of tracer items through implementation of stock

visibility system, which tracks and monitor stock outs, thus enabling shifting of stock within

facilities.

Transport

Transport remains the cost driver in the district in terms of maintenance and repairs resulting

from poor topography, terrains and distance in-between service points. EMS and Forensic

services vehicles are managed through district fleet management.

The focus on EMS is to reduce the response times as of the pillars to improve quality of care

according to the key steps to prevent avoidable maternal, neonatal and child mortality is

rapid inter-facility emergency transport system

Infrastructure

District infrastructure unit has supported institutions towards ensuring all planned projects are

implemented and maintenance budget utilised appropriately.

Finance

The district has managed to channel more budgets to PHC with the previous DHER; this will

be maintained as the district is prioritizing PHC health services over district hospital services.

District budget for 2017/18 has been managed as per prescript with 92% spent by end

February 2018.

Human resource

WISN training has been completed, implementation pending because of budgetary

constraints. District Equity Plan is in place and is being implemented in all sub districts.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE

The District planning process required District Information Officer compile comprehensive

epidemiological health information of the District (as per Annexure C) before the district planning

workshop and make it available to the District Management Team to define aspirations, and

identify key interventions.

Provide the following sections of the comprehensive epidemiological health information for the

District, as a minimum:

6.Population distribution

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 8 of 78

Greater Kokstad Local Municipality has 17% of the population. The municipality is mainly

composed of low cost houses which are located at Shayamoya, Horse shoe , Mphela

,Franklin (Lindelani).Quarters informal settlement ward 2,Marikana ward 8,Bambayi ward8

and Chocolate City ward 1 and farm areas. There are formal house for the middle income

group.

NDZ Local Municipality contributes 23% of the total district population with 94% of the

population living below poverty line, with Ward 4 at Kilmun and Ward 7 at Gqumeni and

Qulashe being the most deprived wards in the sub-district; It is the 2nd largest sub- district

within Harry Gwala District.

Underberg areas are most dominated with migrant laborers from Lesotho and Eastern Cape

and from the nearby Swartberg Farms which contribute to treatment defaulter rates. (see

graph above).

UBuhlebezwe Local Municipality’s population is predominantly formed by formal (traditional)

dwellings with few sugar cane and forestry farm areas. This Local Municipality is marked with low

cost houses at Mahehle, Springvale, Ndwebu area which was previously at UGu district and

Fairview with informal dwellings as well.

UMzimkhulu Local Municipality has the largest population. It is mainly constituted of traditional

dwellings with few low cost at Ibisi, Riverside and informal settlement like Sisulu Settlement areas

close to town enroute R56 which is a main road which has high accidents occurrences.

Harry Gwala District is sub-divided into four local municipalities following merge r of Ingwe and

KwaSani local municipalities, to form Dr. Nkosazane Dlamini- Zuma Local Municipality known as

NDZ Local municipality.

NDZ Local municipality comprises of both tribal and pockets of farm areas with hard to reach

areas. There are variations of head count from clinic to clinic some with high headcount others

with low headcount, like Underberg clinic with high headcount. This is mainly due to the transport

flow from two clinics i.e. Kilmun and Qulashe to Underberg, Ncwadi clinic’s performance is

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 10 of 78

affected by UMgungundlovu District due to its proximity resulting in low PHC utilization rate from

the low headcount.

The sub- district has the second largest population; this population is affected by the migrant

labourers from Lesotho and Eastern Cape Province as well as from nearby Swartberg farms. The

mobility of this population, especially found in farms where farmers import seasonal workers from

Eastern Cape and Lesotho also contributes to high treatment defaulter rates, which is addressed

in terms of cross-border meetings. The sub-district has one district one district hospital and CHC

with 12 clinics, 3 WBOT Underberg Clinic has an MOU (Maternal and Obstetric units).

Greater Kokstad Local Municipality has got two fixed clinics, 3 Health Posts , 3 mobile clinics and 1

district hospital that refers to Edendale Regional Hospital at UMgungundlovu District, transfers to

the nearest Port Shepstone Regional Hospital which is in UGu district is dependent on the

availability of beds. There are no WBOTs due to staff shortages.

Kokstad Local Municipality‘s services are affected directly by Eastern Cape Province because of

its soft boundary, this is evident in the high number of non-referred cases and high TB defaulter

rate of clients mostly from Eastern Cape. People from nearby villages access services from

Kokstad PHC facilities as they are centrally situated in town where people do their day to day

shopping.

Ubuhlebezwe Local Municipality has the third largest population. It has 10 clinics, 2 mobile services

and 2 WBOTs. Health post at ward 5 is operating with challenges of staff retention as it is in a

grossly rural hard to reach area, but its need to exist is obvious from the 100% increase of the

headcount from the previous year. There is one district hospital which refers to uMgungundlovu.

UMzimkhulu Local Municipality has the largest population and is the most rural poverty stricken

hence it was identified as the Presidential Node. It has 16 fixed PHC clinics with 3 mobile clinics, 4

WBOTs . This local municipality has 1 district hospital and 2 specialized hospitals i.e. MDR TB Hospital

St. Margaret Hospital and UMzimkhulu Psychiatric Hospital. Roads are mostly gravel with poor

terrains; making it difficult for the people to access health services. The situation is worse during the

rainy season

The district has a functional District AIDS Council (DAC) and OSS (DTT) which is working closely with

the Department of Health providing intersectoral strategic direction in response to community

health related interventions.

Note ; the highlighted population categories are some of the life course groups that will be

focussed on.

The projections on population growth for the under five years from 2019 onwards seems to be

declining. This could be attributed to high death rate in this age category (as evident in the

DHB 2015/16). The major causes of death for this age category are diarrhoeal diseases

(22.5%) as well as lower respiratory infections (22.5%). There is also a noticeable decline in the

reproduction rate as indicated on the estimated pregnant of women (as indicated from the

table above). This will be monitored against the performance of indicators like the child

mortality rate and couple year protection rate.

The high death rate due to injuries as well as HIV/AIDS amongst the 15 to 24 years according

to Health Barometer 2015 within the district is seen as contributing to the decline of the

population projection of growth rate from 2020. The effectiveness of interventions that are

planned for the three years should be targeting the injuries of this age group and research if

need be to focus on this life group.

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 12 of 78

There is a gradual decline in life span of the 50 years and above due to increase in deaths on

clients with NCDs (as evident in the DHB 2015/16). Key interventions addressing the NCD

program will be implemented as part of this plan.

While there is decline in estimated pregnant women, the increase in delivery in the facility

under 18 years rate is a cause for concern. Harry Gwala District is ranked amongst the top 10

worst performing districts for this indicator. This has implications for child under 1 year mortality

and maternal deaths.

The Unemployment rate is at 33 % for the district according to the Census 2011 with the adult

literacy of 28%. The high adult illiteracy results in the high levels of people earning below R283 per

month (62.9 %) and high levels of unemployment. The low socio- economic status of communities

renders them vulnerable to diseases. This too could contribute to treatment defaulter rate of

chronic diseases as a patient who does not have enough money will opt to buy food than to go

and collect medication. The implementation of CCMDD program may address some of these

challenges.

The source of employment for most of people is forestry farms, sugar plantations and

supermarkets. Those qualifying for social grants are using them as their main source of income.

Informal dwellings linked to poor access to sanitation are associated with sporadic diarrheal cases

that are reported from time to time. This has been noted during information meetings.

Ubuhlebezwe Local Municipality has the lowest electricity supply of at 53 % followed by NDZ Local

municipality with 62.7% of electricity supply. All health facilities in the district have electricity supply

but there are challenges with back up supply of generators to maintain in instances when there

are electricity interruptions. According to South African Multidimensional Poverty Index (SAMPI)

Harry Gwala District has got two wards that fall within the most deprived top 34 wards i.e. Ward 5

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 14 of 78

at Ubuhlebezwe (which ranks number 19) and ward 4 at NDZ (which ranks number 23). Seven

wards are within the top 100 most deprived wards, 4 are from UMzimkhulu one from NDZ .These

wards are prioritized when allocating outreach services.

Water and Sanitation

Greater Kokstad local Municipality is ahead in the provision of sanitation and water services

compared to other local municipalities. This is largely caused by the mushrooming of informal

settlement this Municipality which has resulted in the provision of sanitation through mobile toilets.

Informal settlements such as Bhambayi, Chocolate city and Marikana have no basic water and

sanitation services; this becomes a threat of waterborne diseases.

NDZ Local Municipality has wards that comprise of formal traditional dwellings which never had

piped water (these are most from the previous Ingwe Municipality). These areas are entirely

dependent on boreholes and pit privy systems however the construction of Bulwer Dam will be a

source of water supply once it has been completed. Areas which are from previously Kwa Sani

Local Municipality have piped water except informal dwellings where they are dependent on

springs and boreholes. Municipality provides technical support in cases of drought. Sporadic

cases of diarrhoea are reported if there is extra influx of people.

UMzimkhulu Local Municipality comprise of formal traditional dwellings which never had piped

water, 28 000 informal dwellings do not have water and sanitation services. Communities from

these formal traditional dwellings are dependent on boreholes and spring water and sometimes

supplies from Municipality. Sanitation is mainly pit privy .The picture contributes to sporadic cases

of diarrhoea which is reported throughout the year.

These challenges and water and sanitation in the district are addressed by IDPs.

8. Causes of Mortality

The five leading causes of death in the under 5 years are mainly diarrhoeal diseases, lower

respiratory infections, Preterm birth complications , birth asphyxia and HIV and AIDS

according to the DHB 2015/16. Diarrhoeal diseases deaths related contributory factors have

been identified to be mostly related to herbal intoxication. This has been identified in all sub-

districts .Preterm birth complications deaths are mostly related to extreme prematurity mostly

due to low socio economic background. Specialised equipment like CPAP and presence of

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 15 of 78

Medical Air are essential in management of premature babies of which not all District

Hospitals have got them like EGUM and St Apollinaris. Deaths from asphyxia are due to

compromised intra partum care.

HIV and AIDS related conditions have taken the lead in the 10 major causes of deaths as per

2014/2015 Health Barometer from 15.7% in 2013/ 2014 to 19.4% in 2014/2015. The key

population group mostly affected being within the ages of 15 and 24 years which is mostly

the child bearing age as well as the life course group tertiary education level.

Ages between 25 and 64 are equally affected but according to the population ratio both

males and females share almost the same percentage.

There have been no significant changes in HIV ANC Prevalence. It has been constantly be

above 35%. In 2011 it has been 35.9% in 2012, 36.6 in 2013 and 35.7 in 2014.

TB death rate is fluctuating between 26.2 .8%, 23.1 and 16.4% in 2014/ 2015 according to

Health Barometer 2015/2016. Previously Ingwe as a sub- district recorded the highest rate in

the district at 15.4%, and Ubuhlebezwe sub- district the lowest at 3.9%. The rest of the sub-

districts range from 7% to 7.6%.

Kokstad is having the highest defaulter rate, 13.3% in 2015. This seems to be the common

trend. The contributory factors being the soft boundary between KZN and Eastern Cape.

Kokstad is an economic hub thus attracting job seekers and has low cost houses as well as

informal settlements with poor ventilation facilities

Non Communicable diseases appear to be remaining at the same level but in terms of the

death figures rate they are increasing , Cerebro vascular diseases 5.6 % in 2013/ 2014 and 5.

mellitus 2.9 % in 2013/ 2014 and 3.8 in 2014/ 2015.

Years of life lost due to interpersonal violence are a new trend that is gradually increasing

from 1.4% in 2013/2014 to 2.05 in 2014/ 2015. This is more related to alcohol and drug abuse

that are on the increase even in the rural communities. This will be addressed in the Part B of

the document

9. SERVICE DELIVERY PLATFORM AND MANAGEMENT

The District planning process required District Information Officer compile comprehensive

Primary Health Care delivery platform is affected by the number of clinics resulting in long

distances that the clients have to travel to what they refer as the nearest health facility. Due the

high poverty rate, makes the community to weigh between goings to the clinic against buying

food with the little money he has got, resulting in defaulter rate. Use of WBOT and any outreach

programs to be considered in supporting the continuum of care.

The funding challenges have put on hold on construction of some clinics even though they have

been approved like the construction of CHC at Umzimkhulu Local Municipality.

The WBOT functionality is mostly affected by the staff retention which is a general challenge in the

district.

The two specialised hospitals at Umzimkhulu is the Psychiatric hospital, which serves beyond the

Harry district population, part of Ugu population and part of Alfred Nzo , Eastern Cape

Municipality because of its proximity.

St. Margaret hospital has been utilized as MDR TB hospital but discussion is under way to be

converted to a CHC by 2022

District has been successful in deployment of human resources equitably within all sub

districts such as, Professional Nurses, Pharmacist and Allied Health workers.

All institutions within the district including district office as an institution are operational with

the approved organization structure although some of the posts that have been approved in

the organogram are not yet implemented due to the shortage of funds for the filling of the

post.

The district is unable to recruit scarce skills employees, the challenge is that there is no

retention strategy in place to prevent high turnover rate, the multiracial / private schools that

are preferred by the child bearing age of the middle class are only at Greater Kokstad and

Ubuhlebezwe Local Municipalities. This put pressure to other sub- districts that do not have

them.

The unavailability of the Audiologist in the whole district compromises the management of

the clients that are in need of the service as they have to be referred to the nearest districts.

Community Health Workers may be seen as one of the category with high numbers but due

to the rural nature of the district their availability in all municipality wards provide the

seamless continuum of care in the wards however due to the vast nature of the wards they

are not availability in all villages.

The shortage of doctors is amongst the top 5 commonest patient’s complaints. This is linked

to long waiting periods which compromised quality care. Close monitoring of sessional

doctors has to be done by Medical Managers.

Low numbers of dentists are to be seen against low restoration and creative interventions are

to be put in place to address the challenge.

ALOS is within Provincial target of 5 days. BUR is constantly below the norm (except for NDZ), the contributory factor has been the under-

utilisation of acute paediatric beds and non-adherence to general admission criteria. OPD Headcount not referred is still high as clients still

bypass PHC facilities. Expenditure per patient day equivalent is high because of the low BUR with full staff complement. High crude death rate

at NDZ is high, the preliminary investigation shows that clients present late. These poor performing indicators will be addressed in this plan.

PHC utilisation rate is low due to WBOT data not included in the numerator. Clients who were enrolled on CCMDD also contributed to the low

PHC utilisation rate.

13 ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE DISTRICT MANAGEMENT

TEAM

The full establishment of the District Management Team gives support to the sub-districts

which are key services delivery platforms. The challenge is provision of close support and

monitoring of sub-districts is the vast nature of the district which results in travelling long

distances to reach the facilities. The proposed sub- districts plan will probably ideal to

address the challenge.

Source: District Health Expenditure Review (2016/17) or BAS*LG - Local Government

The increase in budget and expenditure in the past years has been gradual e.g Clinics budget has increased from R206 854.00 in 20115/16 to

R234 194 000 in 2016/17.The expenditure has been maintained within the limits. The reflection of Clinics to be under spending should not be seen

as true reflection, as this is mainly due to delays in journals as well as BAS that closed early before all the payments being processed.

HIV and AIDS budget has increased from R161921000 IN 2015/16 to R163 718 000 in 2016/17 but over expenditure remains.

Harry Gwala District Health Plan 2018/19

Page 25 of 78

Overspending in HIV/ AIDS budget was incurred from VCT test kits which are in line with the increase in the number of people tested and the

coverage. The increase in the number of test kits used was in response the Universal test and treat program ( UTT) that was introduced in

September 2016. The support of Partner Broad Reach and other Community Based Organizations through additional Human Resource assisted

the district to be able to do Community testing. The implementation of UTT meant increase in the ARV Therapy expenditure as well.

The District Management over expenditure resulted from the out of adjustment of two officials one at level 12 and the other at level 10 at the

district that whom HR issues are not resolved.

Burden of disease profile

For the percentage of deaths by broad cause, deaths are classified into four groups, namely: (i) injuries; (ii) non-communicable diseases; (iii) HIV

and TB; and (iv) communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions. Data are given by gender and age group

for the period 2010–2015. The second part of the graph shows the 10 leading single causes of death within each age group (both genders) for

2009–2014 combined.
