EVALUATION OF THE IMPACT OF THE THREE TIER INTERVENTIONS FOR DISABILITY IN EARLY CHILDHOOD (IDEC) PROGRAMME
IN UGANDA
REFNo: HS5596ES
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
The overall aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the three-tier IDEC model piloted in the two districts of Mubende and Kassanda in Uganda, with a twofold purpose: (1) to improve intervention design and management and (2) to inform decisions about future investment and scale-up by establishing evidence and impact.
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES.
Primary objectives
1. To determine the coverage of vision screening at 0-3 months and developmental screening at 9 and 18 months in the study sites.
2. To determine the change in functional abilities in children receiving the Tier 2 intervention.
3. To evaluate effects of the individualised (Tier 3) program at regular intervals (at least every 3 months) on child and family functioning, well-being and participation.
Secondary objectives
1. To determine the change in knowledge and skills in parental/caretaker after the Tier 2 interventions.
2. To determine the change in parental/caretaker level of stress after Tier 2 interventions.
3. To determine the change in parental/caretaker level of stress after Tier 3 interventions.
4. To establish the extent to which children with developmental delay and disability Tier 1 are included in ECD programmes
5. To establish the extent to which children with developmental delay and disability tier 2 are included in ECD programmes. (This could be a compliance or fidelity issue
6. To determine how well (fidelity) the health workers provided the Tier 2 and 3 interventions.
7. To determine compliance with Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions by the caregivers.
8. To determine family satisfaction with all three tiers of the program, including both children that failed and children who passed the screening assessment (Tier I).
9. To determine the costs and cost-effectiveness of the entire program.
10. To assess the likelihood of continuation
