Abschlussarbeit aus dem Jahr 2024 im Fachbereich Gesundheit - Gesundheitswesen, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This study assessed knowledge, application, and technical support acquired by health professionals (practitioners) of District Health Information Management System 2 (DHIMS2) in Tamale Central Municipal, Ghana, locally. Despite the fact that DHIMS2 was deployed throughout the nation since 2012 to enhance the health information management, its application at the district level is not high due to infrastructural, training, and access challenges. Information was collected from 210 randomly selected health workers using a cross-sectional study with a structured questionnaire and analyzed using STATA version 17.0. Findings revealed serious gaps: only 11.9% of the respondents had adequate knowledge about DHIMS2 functions, while 80% faced problems of poor connectivity and accessibility. Furthermore, whereas 63.3% of the respondents never received formal training, 100% of the respondents desired to receive it-indicating massive demand for formal capacity building. The study concludes that the DHIMS2's potential to improve health outcomes through evidence-based decision support is facilitated by knowledge, training, and infrastructure gaps. It suggests mandatory training interventions, infrastructural investment, and continuous feedback-informed program monitoring. How training interventions affect data quality and delivery of services must be examined in future research.
