Exercise 3.3.2 Objective 1. To find out how volunteers manage community resources Time: 20 Minutes Questions 1. What are resources? 2. What resources are there at the community level? 3. How do you manage these resources? 4. What type of resources have you ever managed before? 5. How did you account for these resources? Unit Summary Managing <strong>Community</strong> Resources Instructions to the Facilitator 1. Lead participants to brainstorm how they manage community resources. As you can see, organising and managing communities to undertake health care delivery involves many processes. However, not all the organisation takes place at the same time. It is therefore important for you to actively participate in this workshop and constantly take advantage of opportunities to practise these organisational skills. Remember that this manual is for your reference to update your knowledge. 169
Module 3 The Work of the <strong>Health</strong> Committee Unit 4 Supervision of Volunteers 170 Introduction Unit four will discuss the two major types of supervision. Participants will also learn the importance of supervision and be able to conduct facilitative supervision of volunteers. The unit will also discuss practical ways of promoting the welfare and security of the CHO and volunteers. In most Ghanaian languages we say, “the one cutting the pathway does not see how straight or crooked it is. It is only those who follow behind who can tell whether it is crooked or not”. Thus, an observer’s comments and a person’s own evaluation will help him make necessary adjustments or corrections to the path. This is the essence of supervision. CHOs have a role of supervising VHCs, who in turn have a role in supervising CHVs. In this Unit we will only talk about the VHC supervising the volunteers and discuss their role in promoting the security and welfare of the CHO and volunteers. Traditionally, supervision means looking for mistakes to correct them. The emphasis has always been on the past and what went wrong and not on the future and what can be done to shape it. A new way of supervising our work processes is called Facilitative Supervision. Facilitative Supervision is used to improve upon the quality of our services continuously. It is necessary that VHCs and CHVs know about facilitative supervision. VHCs cannot supervise what they do not know. This unit will additionally, discuss practical ways in which common community health problems can be tackled before they are referred to the health facility. Unit objectives Unit Topics By the end of this Unit participants will be able to: 1. Discuss traditional supervision and facilitative supervision 2.
