| dc.description.abstract | Growth Monitoring Programme was started in Kenya in 1985 in
nine pilot districts as a result of co-operation between GoK
and UNICEF. But to date every district in the•country is
implementing the programme.
Child Health and Information System (CHANIS) being a major
component of (GMP) was established alongside the programme
for assessment of children's weight through closer attention
to growth patterns. Data which is collected from every child
weighed at the health facility is handled manually until it
reaches the Ministry of Health headquarters.
The proposals made in the project are a~ a result of
investigations carried out on the existing system in
Kakamega district as well as MOH headquarters with a view
of establishing a computerized system. Please see Appendix B
for evaluation tools.
The project report is divided into four chapters. The first
chapter presents a review of the present system. Chapter two
highlights the problems faced and possible solutions and
chapter three presents the results of the systems design
effort. Chapter four comprises of the designed computer
system and at the end of the text we have users computer
manual and appendices. | en |
