Abstrakt: Introduction: Hospitals in Sub-Saharan Africa face many challenges. Burkina Faso has experimented a private operating system in a public hospital, in order to improve its performance.
Aim: To assess the Tengandogo Teaching Hospital's (TTH's) performance in Ouagadougou. Burkina Faso.
Method: We carried out a mixed-method cross-sectional study. We collected data in April 2017 using document review and quantitative data (key performance indicators), individual interviews with key informants. The analytical framework covered services continuity, health department efficiency and staff working environment safety.
Results: Our study findings indicated that the performance of TTH hospital is hampered by frequent shortages in medicine and medical consumables, deteriorating facilities, poor coordination of care and lack of data on patients and staff security.
Conclusion: Private management of public hospitals is not sufficient to improve the performance of hospitals in Burkina Faso. More attention should be paid to improving supply management of medicine, consumables and ensuring a safe work environment for health workers.
