Main Difference Between Models
Traditional Model Integrated Model
Supervision• Animators (Supervisors)-paid,
NGO staff: supervise Promoters
• Health Promoters-paid, NGO staff: motivate and supervise Care Group Volunteers which includes CHWs
• MOH Staff: support the CHWs• Animators (paid NGO staff):
provide oversight, supervision and follow-up at all levels
• Each Community Health Worker (CHW): motivates and supervises 2 Care Groups
TrainingCare Group Volunteers and CHWs trained by Health Promoters
CHWs responsible for training Care Group volunteers and facilitating Care Groups

Testimony from the field
13 out of 14 Titulaires interviewed commented on the strong working relationship with CHWs that has developed as a direct result of the MCSP
CHWs and CGVs commented on how easily information is spread throughout their communities as a result of the Care Group network of volunteers
Health center staff stated that information between the health center team and the communities now passes quickly and directly to those concerned

Summary of Results
Both models achieving high levels of efficiency In general traditional group performing more
efficiently Not unexpected due to presence of Promoters Greatest difference in percentage of households
receiving at least one visit per month Possible trade off between efficiency and
potential sustainability
