    Determinants of home based care services provision for the people living with HIV/AIDS: A case study of Hope ('Tumaini') Home Based Care Programme in Tanzania
    (2012) Mahunga, P; Sinanovic, Edina
    The higher increase in the number of HIV/AIDS patients in the country has necessitated the expansion of Home Based Care (HBC) programmes and has called for the need to strengthen the HBC services in Tanzania. Since scaling up of HBC services is fundamental and the resources dedicated into HBC programs are supposed to be utilized efficiently, the factors hindering the provision of HBC services should be known and resolved. A cross sectional study was applied in studying the factors that influence the provision of HBC services and a quantitative method of data collection and analysis was used. A sample of 8 civil society organisations out of 23 carrying out HBC activities under 'Hope' HBC program were selected, representing organizations from rural and peri urban areas.
