Our Approach

We organize the work around the gaps between community, facility, referral, treatment, discharge and continued care.

The central idea

Identify → Understand → Respond → Follow up → Evaluate → Learn → Improve

The model is designed as a continuous community-to-evidence-to-action cycle.

1

Identify

Who is being missed?

2

Understand

What barrier explains the gap?

3

Respond

What is the appropriate intervention?

4

Follow up

Did the person receive the service?

5

Learn

Did it work and what should change?

Community → Facility

A person may be identified in the community but fail to reach appropriate care. MCH Connect focuses on navigation and linkage.

Explore

Evidence → Action

Repeated barriers can be documented through MCH Intelligence and translated into targeted Community MCH Action.

Explore

Action → Learning

Implementation is followed by evaluation, learning and adaptation rather than assuming success.
