Editor's Notes
- UHC is a priority to the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) and the region is facing major challenges in responding to the consequences of protracted emergencies, and the burden of communicable and noncommunicable diseases increasing the demand on health services and stretching the already strained health systems with implications on availability, skill mix, roles and competencies of nurses.
- The need to strengthen nursing in order to achieve UHC has been well articulated in global and regional WHO resolutions and evidence based strategic directions to guide MS’s efforts to address challenges facing nursing workforce. Having nursing on the agenda of this RC also highlights the importance of strengthening nursing in achieving the regional vision health for all by all More recent efforts include the three-year Nursing Now campaign (2018–2020) which has been initiated to raise the profile and status of nurses worldwide. Nursing Now rolled in eight countries,
- Narrative: A number of other countries in the Region are at high risk of outbreaks caused by importation of WPV1 or development of vaccine-derived poliovirus: Djibouti, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, Syrian Arab Republic and Yemen. All are experiencing varying degrees of complex emergency and have access or security constraints that hamper efforts to maintain high population immunity and sensitive surveillance
- This image beautifully demonstrates how all of the units within the regional programme interact to have an impact. This is an image taken from an environmental collection site in Mogadishu, Somalia, in July this year. This was the first formal documentation of environmental surveillance in Somalia. To get this shot, it took coordination between the External Relations team, the Laboratory and Surveillance teams, the country support team. From this, we have developed a guidance video on environmental surveillance and collection which will be an important tool for the programme as environmental surveillance expands in the Region, and globally. This work is also really important in highlighting the real value of maintaining such close collaboration with the technical team in Amman. Materials are developed based on a need determined by the country teams with the technical guidance of the people in this room.
- About 50% of countries either do not have any specialized treatment facilities or these are only available in the capital city. Fewer than one in 7 people with a substance use disorder worldwide receive evidence-based treatment, while in countries of the Eastern Mediterranean Region only one in 13 receives treatment. Screening and brief interventions are only available in < 10% of primary health care services in three countries. Only 1/3 of countries have needle/syringe exchange programmes and condom distribution programmes. Outreach services for injecting drug users are available in only 25% of countries. 63% of countries have at least one medication available for detoxification treatment. 50% of countries report the availability of at least one medication for maintenance treatment (either methadone, buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone).
