Implication

Cross-sectional study finds low service readiness for non-communicable diseases in primary care facilities, highlighting an urgent need for diagnostic and medicine support.

Key Points

  • Only 6 percent of primary health care facilities demonstrated service readiness for non-communicable diseases, and basic amenities showed substantial gaps.
  • Cross-sectional assessment of 117 health workers utilized a modified WHO-SARA tool, and multivariable logistic regression evaluated associated factors.
  • Highlights severe gaps in diagnostic and medicine supplies, urging local health authorities to implement structured service readiness mechanisms.
