  • Understanding what factors influence community health worker involvement in hypertension service delivery in Kenya

    Open Access•Nancy Kagwanja, Robinson Oyando et al.•ARTICLE•Health Policy and Planning•2026•References: 46

    The systematic involvement of community health workers (CHWs) in hypertension management can improve outcomes and achieve blood pressure control. However, much of this evidence is from effectiveness trials conducted under ideal conditions, with little evidence from programmes operating in routine conditions. In Kenya, recent policy changes have expanded CHW roles to routinely incorporate non-communicable disease (including hypertension) service d…

  • Acceptability and feasibility of integrating female genital schistosomiasis and sexual and reproductive health interventions in Kenya

    Open Access•Robinson Karuga, Millicent Ouma et al.•ARTICLE•PLOS Global Public Health•2025

    Female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) is a neglected gynaecological condition that is a manifestation of chronic urogenital schistosomiasis. This disease has significant implications for the reproductive health and overall well-being of women and girls, especially in areas with limited access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH). In Kenya, where urogenital schistosomiasis is endemic, the burden of FGS and how to best address it within existing…

  • Understanding health system responsiveness to public feedback at the sub-national level

    Open Access•Nancy Kagwanja, Lucy Gilson et al.•ARTICLE•PLOS Global Public Health•2024

    Responsiveness is one of four health system goals alongside health outcomes, equity in financing and efficiency. Many studies examining responsiveness report a composite satisfaction index or proportions of patients describing satisfaction with dimensions of responsiveness. Consequently, responsiveness is predominantly based on collation of service users’ feedback and could be termed service responsiveness . We conceptualise system responsiveness…

  • Power and positionality in the practice of health system responsiveness at sub-national level

    Open Access•Nancy Kagwanja, Sassy Molyneux et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2024

    Our findings illuminate the structures and mechanisms that contribute to weak health system responsiveness even in contexts where it is prioritised in policy documents. Supporting inclusion and participation of the public in feedback mechanisms can strengthen receipt of public feedback; however, measures to enhance public agency to participate are also needed. In addition, an organisational environment and culture that empowers health managers to…

  • Prolonged health worker strikes in Kenya- perspectives and experiences of frontline health managers and local communities in Kilifi County

    Open Access•Dennis Waithaka, Nancy Kagwanja et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2020

    Strikes cannot be seen in isolation of the prevailing policy and health systems context. The 2017 prolonged strikes highlight the underlying and longer-term frustration amongst public sector health workers in Kenya. The health system exhibited properties of complex adaptive systems that are interdependent and interactive. Reactive responses within the public system and the use of private healthcare led to limited continued activity through the st…

  • Shocks, stress and everyday health system resilience

    Open Access•Nancy Kagwanja, Dennis Waithaka et al.•ARTICLE•Health Policy and Planning•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 30

    Health systems are faced with a wide variety of challenges. As complex adaptive systems, they respond differently and sometimes in unexpected ways to these challenges. We set out to examine the challenges experienced by the health system at a sub-national level in Kenya, a country that has recently undergone rapid devolution, using an ‘everyday resilience’ lens. We focussed on chronic stressors, rather than acute shocks in examining the responses…
