Since absenteeism was also an issuewithin the management cadres, this reduced theincentives to use sanctions to deal with this andthe other human resource related problems thatbeset the sector.Substantial state Government health funds wereprovided for the upgrading of the State’s mainsecondary hospital to a tertiary teaching facility.This left the remaining facilities short of funds.ChallengesThe under-utilization of public healthfacilities in Enugu State is frequentlyattributed to:••••••••high informal chargespoor staff attitude to work and patientsdeplorable state of infrastructureinadequate drug supplypoor work environmentinadequate incentivesinaccessibility of facilitiespoor quality of care• inadequate staffing, particularly medicalstaffing and pharmacists14 PATHS Final Programme Report
