Assignment Task

Assessment 2 Video Presentation of Case Study 

Case study - Sanjeevani

Sanjeevani is a community-based palliative care organization in Nadia district, West Bengal (India), that is modeled on the Kerala approach. Sanjeevani was spearheaded by the District Magistrate of Nadia, in collaboration with physicians from the local chapter of the Indian Medical Association, and the Institute of Palliative Medicine (IPM), Kerala. More than 150 volunteers participated in an elaborate train-the-trainer program. These trainers then spread out to the villages and conducted satellite training, yielding a total of 1000 volunteers to provide community-based palliative care

Use the HELP framework (introduced in week4) to analyse one of the community case-studies from below. (You may choose any case study other than the ones listed below.) Tasks to be addressed include:

1. Select a case study that reports a specific public health palliative care initiative (Any one of the projects reviewed up to week 4 or from the ones listed below.)

2. Consider the design, process, outcomes and impact of the project using the HELP framework (what areas of interest to HELP have been attended to, what not attended to; how effective have these interventions been, how aware are the authors of areas unaddressed, are there other interventions that could have been attempted …?

3. Drawing again on the HELP framework, propose ways in which this project could have been improved, enhanced or extended.
