| dc.description.abstract | The study focuses on accountability practices in CHAG health facilities in the Volta Region. It was conducted in three CHAG health facilities which include Margret Marquart Catholic Hospital, Kpando, Anfoega Catholic Hospital, and Matter Ecclesiae, Sokode. In this research, non-probability sampling was employed. This method was used because the researcher purposely selects who to include in the study based on their capabilities to provide essential data. Statistical Package for Social Sciences was used to analyze the qualitative and quantitative data gathered. It was revealed that there was no clear written accountability framework in the CHAG health facilities and internal controls available were very weak. Internal auditors were not allowed to carry out their work professionally and independently. According to the findings, it was recommended that the health facilities should strengthen their internal control to increase productivity as well as performance. Also, there should be regular training for internal auditors and all other categories of staff for increased performance. Budget and Procurement committees should be well established to enhance accountability practice in the health facilities. | |
