Table 1.

Bivariate regression analysis of statistical association between the place of work of health workers (the dependent variable)) and their satisfaction with staffing conditions (the independent variables).

Independent variables Frequency P-value OR 95% CI
1. Satisfied with the number of NOs 12 (15.4%) 0.397 1.83 0.45-7.40

2. Satisfied with the number of public health nurses 3 (3.8%) 0.925 1.13 0.09-12.99

3. Satisfied with the number of COs 23 (29.5%) 0.034 3.68 1.10-12.24

4. Satisfied with the number of laboratory staff 9 (11.5%) 0.006 0.05 0.01-0.43

5. Satisfied with the number of MCHA 4 (5.1%) 0.551 0.54 0.07-4.07

The number and percentage of HW confirming their satisfaction is presented in the "Frequency" column (N = 78). The odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) are calculated for health workers employed at a public/government HF at the time of the interview. HWsfound at a private HF serve as the reference group. Data are combined for the two target districts
