The Health Officer will be responsible to coordinate the community health programme, using social behaviour change communication (SBCC) to promote healthy behaviour change with individuals, families and communities, to identify vulnerable Syrian refugees or Jordanians requiring cash for health and to liaise with health facilities related to the cash for health programme.
The Community Health Programme focuses on reproductive health, infant and young child feeding practices (IYCF), exclusive breastfeeding, anaemia prevention, outbreak prevention, psychosocial support, noncommunicable diseases (NCD), sexual and gender-based violence (SBGV), referrals and cash for health.
Community based organizations (CBOs) are incorporated into the community health program and are capacity built to deliver components of the Medair community health program independently.
