The way ahead for district health systems.
The weakest level in most health systems is probably that of the district, and the failings of district services have been cited in attempts to discredit the whole notion of primary health care. A district health system cannot function properly in isolation: in particular it should have firm links with its provincial authorities, and should benefit from the comprehensive involvement of the community it serves.
