Abstract

Background: Malaria is a disease of global public health concern. Nigeria’s contribution to the 409,000
estimated deaths globally in 2019 was 23%. Malaria control requires effective malaria case management guidelines. Adherence and non-adherence to recommended guidelines may be associated with variouscomplexities that impact on the healthcare worker’s management practices. The study aimed to use PRECEDE model to assess the management of uncomplicated malaria among facility-based primary health care workers.
Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study that adopted a structured, self-administered questionnaire and the multistage sampling technique.
Results: The knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy components of these healthcare workers were good. (>85%). However, the reinforcing and enabling factors were poor. The p-value for reinforcing and enabling factors were statistically significant at p = 0.03 and p = 0.01 respectively.
Conclusion: The PRECEDE model is a suitable universal tool to evaluate reasons for adherence and non-adherence from a public health perspective.
