Request for Proposals
Opportunity type: Employment Request for Proposals (RFP’s) to train health care providers on SARS-Cov-2 antigen test and HIV SS (Bid Number: ISI2021-COVID 19 Antigen RDT and HIVSS Training). 1. Background: Isibani Development Partners is a South African-registered Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), launched in 2011 to become a leading local technical assistance provider, systems strengthening and grants manager for health and social service in Southern Africa. Our programs focus on Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Tuberculosis (TB), Non-Communicable diseases and capacity development for community-based organization and government departments. Isibani Development Partners is one of the three Sub-Recipients of the National Department of Health (NDoH) appointed to implement Global Fund TB/HIV programmes from the 1st of April 2019 to 31st March 2022. On behalf of the NDOH- Global Fund (GF) Unit, Isibani is inviting service providers to submit applications/proposals for the training of health care providers on HIV Self Screening (HIV SS) and SARS-Cov-2 ANTIGEN rapid diagnostic testing. 2. Introduction: Covid-19 After the emergence of the global novel Coronavirus, which was named COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the disease a global public health emergency of international concern in 2020. South Africa had the first case of COVID-19 on the 5th of March 2020 and has since then experienced multiple COVID-19 surges. With South Africa already experiencing the third wave of Covid-19 it has become critical for testing to be scaled up with the use of rapid tests at point of care. This enables prompt management of patients found to be infected with the disease. The GF supports the NDoH in its response and interventions to the pandemic. Back in 2020 the country introduced a targeted testing strategy which prioritized testing of patients with urgent clinical needs, without further increase in backlogs. The COVID-19 antigen rapid testing was introduced to ensure efficient and timely testing for Covid-19 for both individual patient management and control of the pandemic at population level. This supports point of care (POC) testing which enables immediate patient care decisions and an increase in access to testing by individuals at risk of contracting the disease. Safe and efficient testing and diagnosis requires that this be performed by a trained health care worker. The Global Fund- NDoH plans to train health care workers in high burdened districts nationwide and therefore requests qualifying service providers to submit their proposals for the proposed training. The focus of the training will be in the districts that are currently declared as hotspots and which still have the highest rates of infection in their respective provinces. 3. HIV Self Screening South Africa accounts for a third of all new HIV infections in Southern Africa, with an estimated 7.5 million people living with HIV in 2019. The prevalence among adults (15-49 years) is 19%, with over 5 million on antiretroviral therapy. Although the antiretroviral therapy (ART) program has been rapidly scaled up, new HIV infections continue to rise, with women accounting for nearly 63% of all new infections due to social and economic disparities, female disempowerment, and high rates of gender based violence (GBV) in communities. Young people aged between 15 and 24 years particularly young women make up the largest proportion of HIV infected people in South Africa, approximately 50%. For South Africa to reach the United Nations 95-95-95 strategy, more HIV infected people need to be aware of their HIV positive status. There is a need for targeted diagnosis, awareness, and treatment programs for men, key populations, young people aged 15–24 years old, people who reside in farming communities and in specific provinces. Targeted testing provides a good opportunity for service providers to provide counselling and testing to people from higher-risk populations who test negative, about their HIV risk and how they can protect themselves in the future; and for those who test HIV positive, to be referred to treatment immediately. New testing technologies have revolutionalised the HIV response by getting HIV tests to the community and out of the health facility. HIV self-screening and other innovative testing approaches can increase uptake of HIV testing among populations who are test averse and the under-tested. During high cases of COVID-19 infection, it is important that people continue to get tested for HIV without risking being infected by COVID-19. Therefore, HIV SS provides a good solution to both HIV testing and lowering risk of COVID-19 infection. Considering the current state of COVID-19 infections the NDOH acknowledges that in some cases, the face-to-face training may not be feasible. In that case the service providers may be required to conduct the training virtually and only limiting contact to short practical sessions. 4. Goals and Objectives of the training a. Goals: To provide a comprehensive training on HIVSS and COVID-19 rapid testing, monitoring and evaluation and certification of the trainees. b. Objectives: To ensure efficient and effective implementation of the SARS-Cov-2 antigen testing and HIV SS training.
