District Health Profile
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | I
Preface There has never been a more opportune time to work on improving maternal and newborn health in Pakistan. The country has an extensive health service network in place yet mortality and morbidity rates for mothers and newborn babies remain disturbingly high. Each year some 4.5 million women give birth and as many as 30,000 die of pregnancy-related causes. In response to this, USAID has launched the Pakistan Initiative for Mothers and Newborns, a five-year project to implement a full range of health interventions. The task has been entrusted to John Snow Inc. and partners. Adding further impetus, the Government of Pakistan has made public its support in providing quality health services to mothers and their newborns and its commitment to achieving the Millennium Development Goals which call for a reduction in the maternal mortality ratio by three quarters by 2015. Devolution of the health sector means that the District health system now has a vital part to play and responsibility to assume. As part of the preparation for district level planning, JSI has worked with District Health officials in compiling a series of district profiles. For successful future planning, it is vital that information is gathered at the district level. I would like to acknowledge CONTECH International Health Consultants, one of our partners, for taking the lead in preparing the district profiles. These profiles take a vital step closer to achieving all our aims.

Foreword The District Health Department of District D.G. Khan welcomes this initiative by PAIMAN. Devolution has brought with it many challenges to improve maternal and newborn health in Pakistan. Chief among them is the realization that health professionals working in the districts must take responsibility for their own planning and improvement of services. Vital in upgrading and coordinating services is data gathered using special indicators specific to districts. As such the production of health profiles at district level provides an invaluable tool for future planning. The District welcomes PAIMAN’s invitation to work with it in improving maternal health for all women and newborns. It is only through partnership at every level of the public and private sector that successes will be achieved.

1. CONTEXT
1.1. Introduction and Background
Pakistan is the 6th most populous country in the world with a
population of over 1541 million people. There is an alarmingly
high Maternal Mortality Ratio of 350-4002 accompanied with a
high infant mortality rate of 77/10001 and an under-five
mortality rate of 101/1000 live births3. The estimated
population growth rate is 1.9 % per annum2, which projects that
Pakistan’s population would increase to 226 million by year
2025. The Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is 4.01 which ranks amongst
the highest in the world and the second highest in the region.
1.2. Pakistan Initiative for Mothers and Newborns (PAIMAN)
The Pakistan Initiative for Mothers and Newborns (PAIMAN) is a
five-year project funded by the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID). The goal of the PAIMAN
project is to reduce maternal, newborn, and child mortality in
Pakistan, through viable and demonstrable initiatives in 10
districts of Pakistan. The project is working on capacity
building of public and private health care providers and
structures within health systems and communities. This strategy
will ensure improvements and supportive linkages in the
continuum of health care for women from the home to the
hospital. The key partners in the implementation of PAIMAN are
the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Population Welfare, the
Provincial Health Departments, the private sector and
consortium partners.

Figure 1: PAIMAN Districts
Strategic Objectives The project is based on the “Pathway to Care and Survival”
framework. The five major strategic objectives are as follows:
• Increase awareness and promote positive maternal and
neonatal health behaviours;
• Increase access to and increase community involvement in maternal and child health services (including essential obstetric care) and ensure services are delivered through health and ancillary health services;
• Improve service quality in both the public and private sectors, particularly related to management of obstetrical complications;
• Increase capacity of MNH managers and care providers; and
• Improve management and integration of health services at all levels.
The PAIMAN consortium is lead by John Snow Inc. (JSI), a US-
based public health organization. JSI is joined by a number of
international and local organizations to form a strong,
professional team for implementing this project.
PAIMAN is being
implemented in 10
districts of Pakistan.
These include
Rawalpindi, Jhelum,
D.G. Khan, Khanewal
(Punjab); Sukkur, Dadu
(Sindh); Jaffarabad,
Lasbella (Balochistan);
and Upper Dir, Buner
(NWFP) refer in Figure 1.

1.3. District Health Profiles
The PAIMAN project has prepared district health profiles which
contain relevant basic information for each of the program
district. The purpose of preparing district profiles is to have a
comprehensive document which can be used by District Health
Management Teams (DHMT), international and national
stakeholders and the PAIMAN team as a ready reference.
Data collection instruments were developed by a team of
eminent public health experts. Teams for data collection were
trained for two days at the Contech International Head Office in
Lahore. Data was collected, tabulated and analyzed by the
Contech team.

2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. District Dera Ghazi Khan at a Glance
Dera Ghazi Khan Town was founded by Haji Khan, after the
name of his son Ghazi Khan. In 1849, on the conclusion of the
second Sikh War, the British Government declared it as a district.
This district is situated in the southwestern part of Pakistan. The
district consists of two major towns, i.e. DG Khan and Taunsa.
The district is bounded on the north by the District Dera Ismail
Khan (NWFP) and its adjoining area; on the east by Muzaffargarh
and Layyah separating these two districts by river Indus; on the
south by Rajanpur: and on the west by Musa Khail and Barkhan
districts of Balochistan Province.
The total area of the district is 119224 square kilometers.
Geographically, District DG Khan is divided into two regions i.e.
one is the mountainous area and the other is plane in the east.
The western half of the district is covered by the hills of the
Suleman Mountains. The mountains are formed of sandstone
with occasional autocross of limestone. The plane area of the
district can be subdivided into three natural tracts, namely,
piedmont area, canal-well irrigated plane area and riverine area.
The piedmont area stretches along base of hills. The cultivation
in area depends upon flow of hill torrents. Canal-well irrigated
plane area forms the intermediate zone between the piedmont
area and riverine area. The cultivation of these areas depends
upon the spills of the river Indus.
The district headquarter D.G. Khan is connected with metalled
roads to its Tehsil headquarters. A metalled road also connects
this district with Musa Kheail, Barkhan, Loralai and other
districts. The district is served by railway line from Taunsa
Barrage to Rajanpur District across which it leads to Jacobbabad

Figure 2: Three main determinants of DHS
District of Sindh. DG Khan is linked with Lahore, Rawalpindi,
Karachi, Quetta and Peshawar through rail. There is also an
airport, 26 kilometers away from the main DG Khan city. The
annual mean minimum and maximum temperatures remain
around 4.5ºC in January and above 42ºC in June respectively.
The cultivation and livestock breeding are the main pursuits and
the means of the livelihood of the rural and urban population.
The other subsidiary means of occupation of the rural
population is basket making, mat and shoe making.
For administration of health services, District D. G. Khan is
divided into two tehsils, i.e. D. G. Khan and Taunsa, and one
tribal area. There are 59 union councils comprising of 51 rural
and 8 urban. Their elected representatives formulate the Zilla
(District) and Tehsil (Town) councils. Political constituencies
include 2 national seats and 4 provincial seats in the legislative
assemblies.
2.2. District Health System (DHS)
A DHS includes the
interrelated elements in
the district that
contribute to health in
homes, educational
institutions,
workplaces, public
places and
communities, as well as
in the physical and
psychosocial
environment. A DHS
based on Primary
Health Care (PHC) is a self-contained segment of the national
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 8
health system. It includes all the relevant health care activities in
the area, whether governmental or otherwise. It includes self-
care and all health care personnel and facilities, whether
governmental or non-governmental, up to and including the
hospital at the first referral level and the appropriate support
services (laboratory, diagnostic and logistic support). As the
decentralized part of the national health system, the DHS
represents a manageable unit, which can integrate health
programs by allowing top-down and bottom-up planning and is
capable of coordinating government and private sector efforts.
Following are the three main criteria for defining a DHS unit:
A clearly defined area with local administration and
representation of different sectors and departments;
An area which can serve as a unit for decentralized inter-
sectoral planning of health care; and
A network of health facilities with referral support.
The district is the basic administrative unit in Pakistan. The
presence of district managers and supervisors led by the
Executive District Officer (EDO) Health offers the opportunity to
function as an effective team with support from the
representatives of other departments, Non-Government
Organization (NGOs), private sector as well as the community.
In any health system, there are three important elements that
are highly interdependent, namely: the community, the health
service delivery system and the environment where the first two
elements operate. Figure 2 illustrates the interdependence of
these elements.
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 9
Environment
This, for example, could be the context in which the health
service delivery system operates. The contextual environment
could be the political system, health-care policies and
development policies. It could also include the socio-economic
status or the physical environment, e.g. climatic conditions. All
these elements have a bearing on the health status of the
individual and the community, as well as the functioning of the
health service delivery system.
Health Service Delivery System
This depicts how health facilities are distributed in the
community, which could also have a bearing on coverage.
Similarly, health services could be viewed in terms of their
affordability and responsiveness to equity which contribute to
the health status of the community.
Community
The characteristics of the society, such as culture, gender,
beliefs and health-seeking behavior, together with the
environment and health service delivery system, determine the
health status.
It is worth mentioning that information included in district
health profiles takes into account the broader perspective of
district health system conceptualized in the preceding
paragraphs.

3.1. District Health Department
The health care delivery network is headed by Executive District
Officer Health. He is assisted by the District Officer Health
(DOH), the Medical Superintendent (MS) of the District
Headquarter (DHQ) Hospital and the Tehsil Headquarter
Hospitals (THQ), and the Program Director of the District Health
Development Center (DHDC). There is an operational District
Health Management Team (DHMT) in the district. The
organizational structure of district health department is given
below:
3.2. District Health Management Team (DHMT)
DHMT is part of the overall health sector reforms and
decentralization of health services at the district level. The
concept of DHMT allows efficient management of health
facilities and services in the district for the promotion and
support for the preventative, educative, curative and
rehabilitative health services in the district.

The percentage break-up
of the rural and urban
population is 86 and 145
respectively showing
that most of the district
population lives in rural
areas as shown in Figure
5. The break up of
population may also be
seen in Table 1. The crude death rate is 9 per 1000, which is
higher than the national figure of 83 per 1000. The crude birth
rate in D. G. Khan is 42.59 per 1000 as compared to 31 per
10003 at national level. Table 2 gives more information on
demographic indicators.
3.4. Fertility Behaviour
In D. G. Khan, like the rest of the country, community social
structures and belief systems are
defined and dominated by men, which perpetuate gender
imbalances and contribute
to poor
outcomes in
fertility
behavior and
reproductive
health. Thus,
the
contraceptive
use remains low
(27%) although
knowledge about contraceptives is high (76%)6 as shown in
Figure 6. A considerable unmet need for family planning
services exists, which has not been converted into effective

contraceptive usage; partly because of family dynamics of a
male dominated society. Mean Children Ever Born (MCEB) to
married women aged 15-49 are 3.11 in District D. G. Khan as
compared to 2.32 in Punjab8. The Total Fertility Rate is 69 as
compared to 4.78 in the province and 4.01 in the country as a
whole. There is a growing commitment by both the provincial
and district governments to review and reform the equity of
service delivery. Comparison of indicators on women and
fertility behaviours is given in Table 3.
3.5. Health Indicators
People, in general, are poor and experience high levels of
mortality, morbidity and disability. An appropriately defined and
maintained set of health
indicators provides
information for the
elaboration of a
relevant profile of the
population’s health
situation. In District
D. G. Khan, 77% of
the population has
access to safe
drinking water while the
sanitation facilities
are available to 33%
of the population.
The infant mortality
rate has been
estimated to be 87
per thousand live
births8 which is
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 15
higher than provincial and national figure as shown in Figure 7.
Under 5 mortality rate is 128 which is again higher than the
provincial figure of 1128. The prevalence of underweight in
children under five years of age is 45%. Twenty-five percent of
children (< 6-9 months) are breastfed with complementary food
as compared to 44% in Punjab8 and 31%3 in Pakistan. The
percentage of children under 5 years of age receiving Vitamin A
supplementation is 80 against 87 in Punjab. 7% of the
population is currently using iodized salt as compared to 8% in
Punjab8. The comparison of Health indicators may be seen in
Table 4 and 5.
3.6. Socio-economic Indicators
The literacy rate of 36%6 is lower than the rest of the country
(49%)3. Similarly, primary school enrolment rate is very low (34);
i.e. 38 for males and 29% for females. Poverty remains a serious
concern in Pakistan. With a per capita gross national income (GNI)
of $7362, poverty rates had fallen substantially in the 1980s and
early 1990s, started to rise again towards the end of the decade.
In 2004-05, 33% of the population was living below the poverty
line. In District Dera Ghazi Khan, poverty is significantly high as
60% of the population earns below Rs. 878 per month.
The above picture depicts the need of renewed and additional
efforts within the district in order to meet the vision embraced in
the Millennium Development Goals by 2015. Comparison of
social-economic indicators of D. G. Khan with Punjab and
Pakistan may be seen in Table 6.
3.7. Health Facilities The health care delivery system of the district health department
of D.G. Khan comprises of one DHQ, one THQ and two Civil

Hospitals. In addition there are 9 Rural Health Centers, 53 Basic
Health Units, 5 MCH centers and 29 Dispensaries.
The following facilities are currently providing services in the
district:
Basic Health Units (BHUs)
The BHUs have been established at the union council level that
normally provides primary health care services, which include11
provision of static and out reach services, MCH, FP, EPI and advice
on food and nutrition, logistics and management support to LHWs
and TBAs and provision of first-level referral services for patients
referred by LHWs.
Fifty-three BHUs are functional in District D. G. Khan. Overall
human resource except doctors in BHUs of District D. G. Khan
needs improvement as can be seen in Figure 9. For the 53 BHUs in
the district, there are 53
sanctioned positions of
doctors. Three posts,
however, are lying
vacant. There are 50
sanctioned posts for
LHVs, out of which 19
are vacant and out of 10
posts for Female Health
Technician (FHT), 5 posts
lying vacant as depicted in Figure 9. There are 52 sanctioned
posts of dispensers against a requirement of 53, out of which 6
are vacant. There are 47 sanctioned posts for Health Technicians
against the requirement of 53, out of which 11 are lying vacant.
The Human Resource position at BHU D. G. Khan can be seen in
Table 7a.
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 17
Rural Health Centers (RHC)
RHCs are small rural hospitals located at the town
committee/markaz level. The role of the RHCs11 includes the
provision of primary level curative care; static and out-reach
services like MCH, FP, EPI and advice on food and nutrition;
sanitation, health education; CDC, ARI and acting as a referral link
for patients referred by LHWs, TBAs and BHUs. RHCs are first-level
care facilities where medico-legal duties are also performed. They
serve a catchment population of about 25,000–50,000 people,
with about 30 staff including 3-4 doctors and a number of
paramedics. They have 10-20 beds, x-ray machine, laboratory and
minor surgery facilities. It is mandatory for male and female
medical officers, LHV and support staff to reside at the premises
so as to ensure their presence round the clock.
Nine RHCs are functioning in District D. G. Khan. Out of 30 posts
of doctors, 12 are lying vacant. The details of Human Resource
position at RHCs D. G. Khan can be seen in Table 7b.
Maternal & Child Health Centers (MCHC)
MCH centers have been established in rural and peri-urban areas.
Activities at MCHCs include antenatal, natal and postnatal care.
Growth monitoring, health education and family planning
advice/services are also provided.
Presently 5 MCH Centers are established and providing services in
the district. All the MCH Centers are fully staffed except for one
center where the post of Dai is lying vacant. Moreover, the posts
of the Chauwkidars are not sanctioned, which are necessary for
the security purposes. The Human Resource position at MCHCs
can be seen in Table 7c.
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 18
Tehsil Headquarter (THQ) Hospitals
The THQ Hospital is serving as a first-level referral hospital, which
receives health care users from the catchment area and referrals
from RHCs and BHUs within the tehsil. The THQ Hospital provides
specialist support and expertise of clinicians and offers basic in-
patient services as well as out-patient services. This serves a
catchment population of about 100,000 to 300,000 people; and
typically has 40-90 beds and appropriate support services
including x-ray, laboratory and surgical facilities. Its staff may
include specialists such as a general surgeon, obstetrician &
gynaecologist, ophthalmologist, and occasionally supported by an
anaesthetist.
One THQ Hospital at Taunsa is functioning in District D. G. Khan.
The positions of Gynecologist and Dental Surgeon are not filled at
the THQ Hospital Taunsa. Moreover, the position of the Medical
Specialist and Anesthesiologist is not sanctioned. The Human
Resource position at THQH D. G. Khan can be seen in Table 7d.
District Headquarter (DHQ) Hospital
DHQ Hospitals also provide secondary care with additional
specialties as compared to THQ Hospitals. DHQ Hospitals receive
health care users from lower level health facilities including THQ
Hospitals, RHCs and BHUs and provide services in all major
specialties including general surgery & medicine, ENT, pediatrics,
ophthalmology, pathology, chest diseases, cardiology, and
gynecology. Preventive care is also provided such as health
education, immunization and antenatal care.
In D. G. Khan, a 150-bedded hospital which receives health care
users directly and from lower level health facilities including the
THQ Hospital provides specialist care.

3.8. Public Sector Health Manpower Out of 1204 sanctioned positions in District D. G. Khan, 80% are
filled. Among the management cadre, only the position of one
Deputy Medical Superintendent is lying vacant. Out of 143
positions of doctors, 47 are lying vacant and among the para-
medical staff, 17 positions of LHVs, 10 positions of health
technicians, 5 positions of female health technicians and 7
positions of dispensers are lying vacant.
The reason generally mentioned for unfilled positions is a
continued ban on staff recruitment. Vacancies were filled
whenever the ban was lifted for brief periods. It is pertinent to
note that there is no significant improvement in the situation
following devolution. Other reasons quoted for the inability to fill
the vacant positions include a policy to hire staff on a contract
basis rather than by recruitment through the Public Service
Commission on permanent basis. The details of positions are
mentioned in Table 8.
3.9. District Health Development Centre (DHDC) DHDC D. G. Khan was established in 1998 under the World Bank-
assisted Second Family Health Project to provide pre/in-service
trainings and other research and development activities. The
mission of the DHDCs is to support district health services
through training, as well as developmental and operational
research activities. The details of the training profile of the DHDC
for the year 2004 are given in Table 9.
3.10. Other Health Initiatives including Public Private Partnership There are a number of initiatives being implemented in D. G.
Khan, both in the public sector as well as the private/NGO sector.
Among the government initiatives there are the EPI, the National
Program for Family Planning and Primary Health Care, and the T.B.
DOTS program.

i. Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI): The
District Superintendent of Vaccination (DSV) under the
supervision of the DOH and the EDO (H) manages the
EPI in the district. The DSV is supposed to coordinate
and supervise the activities of the EPI at all fixed
centers and outreach teams. EPI coverage of district
has been 37%.
ii. The National Program for Family Planning & Primary
Health Care: The National Program for Family Planning
and Primary Health Care provides the missing link
between health care outlets and users of health
services. The link is provided through a network of
Lady Health Workers (LHWs), especially trained in PHC,
family planning and community organization. At
present, the number of LHWs is 1000 in the district,
with almost 50% population coverage.
iii. Optimal Birth Spacing Initiative: This project
launched in January, 2005. Under this initiative,
training on Optimal Birth Spacing Initiative (OBSI) was
given to 60 Master Trainers and 678 LHWs.
iv. T.B. DOTS Program: The T.B. DOTS program was
started in April, 2004. The training of doctors has been
completed whereas only 50% of the paramedics and
microscopists have been trained.
3.11. Population Welfare Department Major services offered by the District Population Welfare Office
include Family Planning, Maternal Care, Child Care and General
Health Care Services.
These services in District D. G. Khan are offered through one RHSC-
A, one RHSC-B, 2 mobile service units and 31 family welfare
centers. However, as decided in the meeting of the Central Working
Development Party in January 2005, all the Family Welfare Center
District Health Profile – Dera Ghazi Khan
page | 21
Staff was to be stationed in the nearest Basic Health Unit from July
1, 2005.
3.12. Private Clinics and Hospitals
There has been rapid growth in the number of private clinics and
hospitals in the recent past. Health care being provided by the
private sector is preferred by the community if they can afford it.
People are also attracted by the innumerable, “less expensive”
quacks. All efforts to enlist them have failed in the past.
There are 146 general medical practitioners and 45 hospitals
working in the private sector located in major towns of the district.
Different strategies need to be adopted in order to mainstream the
private sector including public private partnerships,
standardization of private practice, provision of training
opportunities and inclusion in the social marketing of health. A list
of private clinics and hospitals operating in D. G. Khan may be seen
in Table 10.
3.13. Non Governmental Organizations (NGO)s The Social Welfare Department of the district is headed by the
Executive District Officer for Community Development and
supported by the Deputy District Officer. The department was
devolved after the promulgation of the Punjab Local Government
Ordinance 2001 and has been a district government subject since
then. There is a strategic, as well as an annual operational plan for
the district social welfare office. It is mandatory for all NGOs to
register with the Social Welfare Department. There are 82
registered NGO’s in District Dera Ghazi Khan with a breakup of 50
for Tehsil D. G. Khan and 32 for Tehsil Taunsa Sharif. The main
focus of these organizations is on the health and education of
women and children in particular. A list of some significant NGOs
working in District D. G. Khan may be seen in Table 11.

4. Budget Allocations and Utilization D. G. Khan District witnessed a gradual rise in budgetary allocations
each year since 2001-
02. The budgetary
allocation for the year
2004-5 is Rs. 1457.6
million as compared to Rs.
1295.3 million of the
preceding year, which
represents an increase as
reflected in Figure 10. On
the contrary, the district
budgetary allocation
shows a declining trend
for health sector allocation reducing its share from 17% in 2002-03 to
12.7% in 2003-04 and 12.5% in 2004-05. In real terms, the budgetary
allocations for health have not registered any increase in the past two
years.
The allocations for the
DHQ Hospital in the
current year 2004-5 grew
considerably 12%.
Comparatively, allocations
for THQ hospitals were
also increased only by
12% during this period.
Budgetary allocations for
RHCs and BHUs were
decreased by 9% during same period as is shown in Figure 11..
It has been observed that the gap between allocations to secondary
and primary care has narrowed with a leaning towards enhanced
allocations towards DHQ hospital. Comparing the development and

non-development budget, it may be observed that the non-
development budgetary allocations have increased slightly in the last
four years, whereas the development budgetary allocations were made
only in 2003-04 (Rs. 11 million) and the current year (Rs. 19 million).
The main reasons may include the following:
1. The health sector has to compete with other sectors for the
budget under the newly established district government system,
where a block allocation goes to the district;
2. Health teams in the district may have limited capacity to plan and
advocate for enhanced allocations; and
3. The priority of the political leaders/District Nazim may be in
other sectors, such as pavement of roads, provision of street
lighting, etc. as opposed to health services.
It has also been observed that all allocated funds may not be spent in any
given year. The percentage of unutilized funds, however, has decreased
over the past two years. District D. G. Khan was able to spend 76%, 84%
and 92% of the allocated budget in the fiscal year 2002-3, 2003-4 and
2004-5 respectively as is shown in Figure 12.
