ABSTRACT

THIS RESEARCH WORK FOCUSED ON MOTIVATION

AND PERFORMANCE IN THE Enugu State Ministry of Health,

(M.O.H.) comprising both the Local Government and State

Health workers. Materials for the study were gathered

primarily through interviews, observations and questionnaires.

Also secondary data, were collected from the database of the

State Health Management information system (HMIS). From

the data collected, the researcher found that workers are more

active in health facilites with adequate frugs, equipments,

security, occasional trainings and regular salaries

(morivations) as these translate to high patients attednadnce

or patronage.

The situation is not the same in facilities were health

workers are not well motivated. Arising from this some

recommendations were made among which are: the need for

regular supply of drugs followed by proper accounting system.

The state should also embark on aggressive structural

rehabilitation of health facilities and also proper training and retraining of staff.
