9 Palliative care progress in Africa Essential Palliative Care Medicines and technologies Over 10 countries Uganda, Kenya, Swaziland, Malawi, Tanzania, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Botswana, Nigeria, Zambia have access to oral morphine Outside South Africa national coverage is still poor Oral morphine reconstitution is now happening in Uganda, Swaziland, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda Pain management guidelines developed for 3 countries; Botswana, Malawi and Uganda.
10 Palliative care progress in Africa Essential Palliative Care Medicines and technologies Countries using liquid oral morphine have adopted national centralised or regionalised low cost morphine reconstitution technologies Use of mobile phone technology to track opioid stocks piloted in Africa, Uganda (APCA with Honexus and also PCAU and MoH) etc. The South Africa Medicines availability task team is reviewing Essential Medicines List and lobbying for nurse prescribing scheduled medicines Nurse opioid prescription in Uganda with other African countries considering task shifting opioid prescription

14 Palliative care progress in Africa Human Resources for palliative care Specialist Palliative Care education in Uganda, South Africa, Tanzania, (Malawi) at certificate, diploma and degree levels and integration into curricula in Uganda, Kenya, 21 different awareness and educational tools have been developed and shared in 19 African countries; Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Ghana, Malawi, The Gambia, Botswana, DRC, Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Mozambique, Namibia, Togo, Ethiopia, Cameroon, South Africa and Nigeria PC awareness activities have benefited stakeholders in 22 countries: Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda, Kenya, Zambia, Malawi, The Gambia, Botswana, DRC, Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Mozambique, Namibia, Togo, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Sudan, Cameroon, South Africa, Cote d' Ivoire, Ghana and Nigeria.
15 Palliative care progress in Africa Human Resources for palliative care Nine countries have PC training packages; Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Malawi, Uganda, Kenya, Mozambique, Swaziland, Botswana and Namibia. APCA has supported PC training for over 3975 pre and in-service health care workers in 14 countries over the past 5 years in; Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Botswana, Nigeria, Malawi, The Gambia, Swaziland, DRC, Sudan.

17 Palliative care progress in Africa Financing for palliative care Some national health budgets covered different aspects of palliative care: Kenya, Uganda, Botswana, Swaziland, Malawi, South Africa and Rwanda. Botswana in its new palliative care policy commits to give financial resources to designated non-state hospices and palliative care organisations Most Palliative care initiatives in Africa funded from non-government sector Only Ghana and Rwanda health insurance covering some aspects of palliative care
18 Palliative care progress in Africa Strategic information Some countries have included palliative care indicators in HMIS; Uganda Utilising of M health Palliative care research in some of the countries African Palliative Care Research Network with North-to South collaborations
19 Palliative care challenges in Africa Policy: Over 40 countries have not developed palliative care policies Medicines: Many countries have no access to pain medicines in the public and private heath system, Service delivery coverage is still below 15% of the need Palliative care Financing is still lacking with majority of palliative care funded out of pocket, NGO funded Lack of comprehensive national health insurance covering palliative care Palliative care integration into cancer institutes is also not funded Recognition of palliative care and oncology specialists
20 Inequity in Access to Cancer Care (Example of radiotherapy) 23 African countries without RT
21 Way forward Need to work with countries to integrate palliative care into all cancer care initiatives by: Developing palliative care policies that cover children and adults Increasing cancer and palliative care human resources including paediatrics Availing palliative care medicines for both adults and children esp. opioids Inclusion of palliative care indicators into national health management information systems Improving national domestic budgetary allocations for palliative care Increasing points of palliative care delivery including cancer sites, hospitals, community and homebased initiatives and programmes Increasing evidence-based models of paed and adult palliative care delivery Addressing the RADIOTHERAPY gap in Africa
