摘要

卫生资源的分配不公且循证不足,加剧了发展中国家的卫生差距。医疗资源可及性不足和滥用的指标包括以城市为中心的医疗设施选址和医疗服务区域重叠。这项研究采用了服务区分析和最大覆盖位置问题(MCLP)来评估空间可达性,同时考虑到基本医疗服务提供者的运行时间表。利用摩托车模型,基本医疗设施的空间可达性达到 84%。然而,某些设施在周末或全天候不运营。在周末,可达性下降到 60%,24 小时可达性下降到 49%。由此可见,医疗设施的运营时间对空间可达性有很大影响。本研究建议对位于战略位置的医疗设施进行升级,以提高空间可达性,并加强当地人口的转诊网络。

Spatial analysis of primary healthcare accessibility patterns in Migori County, Kenya

The inequitable and insufficient evidence-based allocation of health resources has exacerbated the health disparities in developing nations. Indicators of inadequate accessibility and misuse of health resources include urban-centered health facility site selection and overlapping health service areas. This research employed Service area analysis and the Maximum Covering Location Problem (MCLP) to assess spatial accessibility while considering the operational schedules of basic healthcare providers. Utilizing the motorbike model, the spatial accessibility to basic healthcare facilities amounted to 84%. However, certain facilities did not operate during weekends or around the clock. During the weekends, accessibility decreased to 60%, and for 24-hour accessibility, it dropped to 49%. Consequently, it is evident that the operating hours of healthcare facilities have a significant effect on spatial accessibility. This study proposed the upgrade of strategically positioned healthcare facilities to enhance spatial access and bolster the referral network for the local population.
