The Cross-Border Health Integrated Partnership Project (CB-HIPP) is a regional project funded by the regional health office of the USAID Kenya and East Africa Mission and is implemented by a team of partners led by FHI 360. Project implementation dates are September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2019. It is designed to extend quality integrated health services in strategic land and wet cross-border areas and other transport corridor sites in East, Central and Southern Africa.
Transnational mobility affects treatment as noted by East, Central and Southern Africa Health Community (ECSA-HC): “Patients who travel across borders without consistent medical care risk going undiagnosed or, if they only sporadically access treatment, acquiring resistance to first-line treatments”. Mobility is therefore an important factor in achieving the TB global goals, i.e., cascade of TB care: screening at least 90% of the KP/vulnerable population; testing at least 90% of those with suggestive symptoms; treating at least 90% of those diagnosed; and successfully treating at least 90% who begin treatment.
Prior to conducting this comprehensive assessment, CB-HIPP collaborated with EAHRC to map health facilities at twelve (12) cross-border sites to identify TB services. All public, private, and faith-based health facilities within the five (5) to ten (10) kilometer radius from the border point and along the major transport corridor or fish landing site were mapped. Referral facilities including district/county hospitals and National Research Institute (NRI) facilities were mapped irrespective of distance from the border point. The mapping information was used to develop a sampling frame for this comprehensive assessment. The assessment will generate information useful for initial programming to strengthen TB service delivery at the cross-border sites.
Job Summary:
The purpose of this consultancy is to serve as a research assistant supervisor for the assessment of TB service delivery at CB-HIPP cross-border areas including Busia, Malaba, Sio Port, Port Victoria, Mbita-Mfangano, Muhuru Bay, Namanga and Isebania Kenya.

A health services data extraction form will also be completed and coordinates of identified health facilities captured. The supervisor will be required to maintain confidentiality and security of data gathered.
