Kenya Harmonized Health Facility Assessment (KHFA) 2018/2019 Main Report
Category: Health Facility Data |
Type: Report
Keywords: facility, readiness
The Harmonized Kenya Health Facility Assessment 2018 is a collective effort involving multiple Health Data Collaborative partners. The assessment succeeds past initiatives including the Service Availability Readiness Assessment Mapping (SARAM) in 2013, service delivery indicator (SDI) 2012/2018 and service provision assessment (SPA) in 2010 among others, that were aimed at providing information on the degree of preparedness of health facilities to offer services through. The KHFA 2018 was implemented by the Kenya’s Ministry of Health in collaboration with the development partners. The objectives of KHFA 2018 were: (i) To provide essential information at national and county level to facilitate decision making on investments needed to deliver the essential health package towards UHC; (ii) To generate the evidence to support the ongoing national and county UHC roadmap, strategic plan development, annual health reviews to guide more effective county/country and partner investments; (iii) To provide baselines of health infrastructure situation which will assist in development of health infrastructure and maintenance of master plans for all planning entities in the health sector to improve access to healthcare; (iv) To fill critical data gaps in health service availability and readiness required for assessing and monitoring progress in health system strengthening, UHC roadmap, within the broader context of M&E of county and national health strategies; (v) To support county and national planners in planning and managing health systems (assessing equitable and appropriate distribution of services and resources, etc.); (vi) To provide a foundation for the continued service availability readiness monitoring mechanisms through the established formal routine reporting system for sustainability; and (vii) To establish the accountability and potential financial resources for each health facility to deliver the essential services. The following modules were included in the assessment: service availability, service readiness, management and finance, quality of care, and the community module. Data collection for the survey was conducted in November and December 2018 by a team of national supervisors, county supervisors, and research assistants (RAs) in all the 47 counties. The data were successfully collected in 2,927 (98%) health facilities out of the targeted 2,980 health facilities.

County Yearly Population
Category: Population Data |
Type: csv, dataset
Keywords: population, projectctions, yearly
The dataset contains annual population estimates for all 47 counties in Kenya from 2010 to 2025. Population projections for 2010-2015 and 2020-2025 were obtained from Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) population projections, while the 2019 data was sourced from the official Kenya Population and Housing Census accessed via the rKenyaCensus R package. For the missing years 2016-2018, we employed backward projection using county-specific growth rates calculated from the 2020-2025 KNBS projections, with the 2019 census data serving as the anchor point. County-specific annual growth rates were computed as the mean of year-over-year percentage changes from the 2020-2025 period, then applied retrospectively to estimate 2018, 2017, and 2016 populations.
