health program evaluation

Health program evaluation is the systematic process of examining a health initiative to determine its effectiveness, efficiency, and impact. It involves collecting and analyzing data to see if the program achieves its goals, such as improving health outcomes or increasing awareness. The goal is to understand what works well, what could be improved, and whether resources are being used wisely. This helps decision-makers make informed choices about continuing, modifying, or expanding programs, ultimately aiming to enhance community health and ensure that efforts deliver real benefits.
