Health Official Ndèye Maguette Ndiaye Ndom believes 'promptness' is the other key indicator 07.07.2026

The Chief of Staff to the Minister of Health and Public Hygiene, Ndèye Maguette Ndiaye Ndom, presided over the national day for sharing performance results in data management on Tuesday. The event aims to evaluate progress in the sector, identify logistical challenges, and modernize the country's health information systems. According to her, indicator monitoring is conducted at the level of each national directorate, with information completeness serving as the primary criterion. "The other key indicator is promptness," she stated, highlighting significant disparities between districts within the same region. Dr. Michel Yao, the WHO Resident Representative in Senegal, supported this approach, affirming that data enables performance monitoring and the implementation of corrective measures. For the international expert, this information is essential for planning quality services and ensuring transparency, contributing to global reports and allowing Senegal to compare its results against international standards.
