methods and technology made universally accessible to individuals and families in

PHC - Alma- Ata


Declaration:

In 1978, ministries from 134 countries met at the Alma- Ata


conference in the former USSR to declare a common mission
for governments, international organizations & health workers
worldwide (health for all by the end of year 2000), they
thus declare the strategy of PHC as the key to realize this
vision.

PHC - Alma- Ata


Declaration:
They called for urgent & effective local, global efforts to develop
& implement PHC through out the world particularly in
developing countries.
so;
Primary health care (PHC) became a core policy for the WHO
with the Alma-Ata Declaration in 1978 and the Health-for-All by
the Year 2000 Program.

The commitment to global improvements in health,


especially for the most disadvantaged populations,
was renewed in 1998 by the World Health Assembly.
This led to the Health-for-All for the twenty-first
Century policy and program, within which the
commitment to PHC development is restated.

Philosophy of PHC:
1-Health is fundamental related to availability &
distribution of resources (not just health resources
such as doctors, nurses, medicines) but also by other
socioeconomic resources such as education, water
supply, & food supply.

Philosophy of PHC:

2-PHC is concerned with equity to ensure that the


available health & social resources are distributed wisely
with due consideration for those whose needs are
greatest.

Philosophy of PHC:
3- Health is an integral part of the overall development,
thus factors which influence health care are social,
cultural, economic as well as biological & environmental.

Philosophy of PHC:
4- To achieve better health, requires much more
development by people themselves as individuals &
families, communities in taking action on their own
behalf adapting health behavior & ensuring healthy
environment.

Principles for PHC


PHC based on the following principles :

Social equity
Nation-wide coverage
Self-reliance
Inter-sectoral coordination
Peoples involvement in the planning and
implementation of health programs

Principles
of ofPHC
The 1978 Declaration
Alma-Ata proposed a

set of PRINCIPLES for primary health care. PHC


should:

1.Reflect and evolve from the economic conditions and


socio-cultural and political characteristics of the country
and its communities, and be based on the application of
the relevant results of social, biomedical and health
services research and public health experience
2. Address the main health problems in the community,
providing promotive, preventive, curative and
rehabilitative services accordingly

3. Involve, in addition to the health sector,


all related sectors and aspects of national
and community development, in particular
agriculture, animal husbandry, food,
industry, education, housing, public works,
4. Promote maximum community and
individual self-reliance and participation in
the planning, organization, operation and
control of primary health care, making
fullest use of local, national and other
available resources; and to this end develop
through appropriate education the ability of
communities to participate

5. Be sustained by integrated, functional and


mutually-supportive referral systems, leading to
the progressive improvement of comprehensive
health care for all, and giving priority to those
most in need
6. Rely, at local and referral levels, on health
workers, including physicians, nurses, midwives,
auxiliaries and community workers as
applicable, as well as traditional practitioners as
needed, suitably trained socially and technically
to work as a health team and to respond to the
expressed health needs of the community.

Core Activities for PHC


There is a set of CORE ACTIVITIES,
which were normally defined nationally
or locally. According to the 1978
Declaration of Alma-Ata proposed that
these activities should include:

1. Education concerning prevailing health problems and


the methods of preventing and controlling them

2. Promotion of food supply and proper nutrition

3. An adequate supply of safe water and basic sanitation

4. Maternal and child health care, including family


planning

assistants.

10. Referral services

WHO Strategies of PHC

Reducing excess mortality of poor marginalized


populations:
PHC must ensure access to health services for the
most disadvantaged populations, and focus on
interventions which will directly impact on the major
causes of mortality, morbidity and disability for
those populations.

2. Reducing the leading risk factors to human health:


PHC, through its preventative and health
promotion roles, must address those known risk
factors, which are the major determinants of health
outcomes for local populations.

3. Developing Sustainable Health Systems:


PHC as a component of health systems must develop in
ways, which are financially sustainable, supported by
political leaders, and supported by the populations served.
4, Developing an enabling policy and institutional
environment:
PHC policy must be integrated with other policy domains,
and play its part in the pursuit of wider social, economic,
environmental and development
policy.
