In the area of human resources for health, the specialization of several key health services in Kenya has led to inequitable staff distribution at the facility level. Once provided in out-patient clinics, some services-including family planning, HIV testing care and support, TB treatment - have been moved to specialized sites in the health facility. In addition to meeting needs of patients, the appropriate re-integration of these services allows for more efficient use of health workers time. For example, one specialized staff may see 10 patients a day while 3 out-patient clinic staff working together may see.
