Haiti - Policy : Towards a Hospital Management reform
26/06/2017 10:18:44

Marie Greta Roy Clément, Minister of Public Health with technical and financial support from the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) and the International Health Unit of the Center Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (USI), organized a two-day workshop on hospital management reform last week. A reform that is particularly important in the context of projects under construction or reconstruction of hospitals, for which the rehabilitation of infrastructure must necessarily be accompanied by a profound reform of their management.

Opened in the presence of Elisabeth Beton Delègue, Ambassador of France to Haiti, and Ambassador of Canada to Haiti Ms. Paula Caldwell St-Onge, this workshop was devoted to sharing experiences and discussing the results, tools, lessons learned, recommendations and actions envisaged, following the implementation of two specific projects.

The first project is the Reconstruction of the Hospital of the State University of Haiti (HUEH), with an amount of more than 80 million dollars, co-financed by France, the United States and Haiti and including an important component of governance support. This project is now at an advanced stage of physical implementation, but major challenges remain to improve its management in the context of a reopening planned before the end of 2018.

The second project involves the construction of the Gonaïves hospital, funded by Canadian cooperation, reinforced by a management support project implemented by the USI.

This workshop made it possible to restore, among other things, the work of two years of support for the strengthening of the HUEH, in particular on themes : governance, human resources, management and finance, medical project and equipment maintenance.
