Aplicación de la Metodología de Marco Lógico para Gestionar el Mejoramiento de los Servicios de Salud Mental en la Provincia de García Rovira, Departamento de Santander

Abstract

In the present work, the problem that arises with the mental health services in the province of García Rovira in the department of Santander was analyzed, since it does not have the personnel, facilities and adequate resources to meet the demand that has been increasing in recent years and more specifically due to the emergence of covid-19. In this sense, the general objective was to manage the improvement of mental health services in the province of García Rovira, department of Santander, applying the logical framework methodology. For the method, a descriptive study was applied based on the collection of secondary data through documentary sources and on the analytical structure of the logical framework. The main result was a detailed project planning that can be executed in a period of 39 weeks (10 months), valued at $103,660,556 for the first year and $76,846,828 for operating expenses for the second year and beyond. This will make it possible to increase the capacity to provide the mental health service required by the community, taking into account the budget estimates, schedule, communications plan and for the evaluation of the quality of the deliverables. Based on this, in the discussions it was found that the logical framework methodology adds value to the improvement of hospital services, because it offers management tools that allow administrative and care staff to measure future results and guarantee compliance with goals.
