Determinants of the implementation of Healthcare projects in Kenya:A Case of Coast General Hospital,Mombasa County.
Healthcare projects form part of the most crucial sector of the economies since they lead to the presence of health services. The study was guided by four objectives that included: to examine how Funding availability,Procurement processes,Project size and Community awareness influence the implementation of healthcare projects in Kenya; a case of Coast general hospital, Mombasa County. A descriptive design with a target population of 520 and a sample size of 52 respondents was used. A regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses. In relation to the first objective, results indicated that majority of the respondents strongly agreed that funding availability determined the implementation of healthcare projects in Mombasa County with an average mean of 4.85. Further, majority of the respondents strongly agreed that community awareness had an influence of an average mean of 4.74 as a determinant on the implementation of healthcare projects. This was further supported by a standard deviation of 0.37. Further, results indicated that: majority of the respondents strongly agreed that project size has a significant influence on the implementation of healthcare projects as indicated by a combined mean of 4.77 and standard deviation of 0.35. Finally, the study findings indicated that majority of the respondents strongly agreed that the procurement process variable determined the implementation of the healthcare project. The study concluded that: adequate funding had the highest determinant on the implementation of healthcare projects; project size, community awareness, and procurement processes influence the implementation of healthcare projects.
