Performance-enhancing health worker supervision approaches in low- and middle-income countries

New publication shows supervision enhancements and approaches to optimizing health worker performance
A new publication illustrates how insufficient support to build, manage and optimize human resources for health in low- and middle-income countries results in inadequate health workforce performance, perpetuating health inequities and low-quality health services. A systematic review of performance-enhancing health worker supervision approaches in low- and middle-income countries was published in Human Resources for Health and assessed 57 supervision studies since 2010 in approximately 29 countries. It documents supervision enhancements and approaches that improved health worker performance and highlights components associated with these interventions’ effectiveness. Read the publication here.
