Abstract

The National Health Sector Strategic Plan (NHSSP) has been developed to provide a common strategic framework for the plan period covering 1st January 2010 to 31st December 2015; a framework that will guide all interventions by all parties at all levels of the national health system in Sierra Leone.

Specifically, the NHSSP forms the basis for: Developing and implementing strategic and operational plans of central Ministry of Health and Sanitation directorates, at the districts and in all hospitals; Formalising coordination mechanisms and guiding participation of all stakeholders in health development in Sierra Leone; and, Developing the long term expenditure framework (LTEF), medium term expenditure framework (MTEF) and the annual budget framework paper (ABFP) for the health sector.
