A State Ministry of Health is implementing a nationwide programme to strengthen public health delivery, including immunisation, maternal health, disease surveillance, and environmental sanitation. However, coordination between government agencies is weak, and service delivery at the community level remains inconsistent. Health education efforts on new digital reporting tools for disease surveillance are also poorly received by some health workers.

ADescribe the roles of government agencies in the delivery of public health services in this setting.
BExamine how weak coordination between agencies may affect the effectiveness of public health service delivery.
CRecommend strategies that health education services can use to improve the adoption of new health technologies among health workers and communities.
