Phase 1: Situational Analysis (cont.)
ITEM QUESTIONS TO PONDER
Outcomes –Resources- • What resources are needed to improve the outcomes?
• What resources are being provided?• Are the allocated resources enough?
Resources – Services and Facilities- • Are services and facilities produced efficiently?
• Are the right kind of services and facilities produced from the available resources?
Phase 1: Situational Analysis (cont.)
ITEM QUESTIONS TO PONDER
Services and facilities – Access and Utilization of Services and Facilities
• Are the services and facilities located where they are needed? Do people know that the services and facilities are available?
• Are the services and facilities available to everyone who needs them?
• Are the services and facilities when needed?
• Are the services and facilities affordable?
• Do people actually use the services and facilities?
Phase 1: Situational Analysis (cont.)
ITEM QUESTIONS TO PONDER
Access and Utilization of Services and Facilities – Outcomes
• Do the services and facilities have an impact on the target population?
• Is the impact positive or negative?
Environment • What are the demographic, economic, social, political, and cultural conditions?
• How do the conditions affect the availability of resources, provision of services and facilities, access to and use of these, and the corresponding outcomes?
