Updated and Contextualized Nursing Guidelines for PHC, in alignment with evidence-based WHO standards, the updated Essential Health Services Package (EHSP), and Universal Health Coverage (UHC) principles, and reflect the realities of the West Bank health system and clearly define the scope of practice for PHC nurses. 2. Updated Competency-Based Training Manual for PHC and Public Health Nursing: into a practical, competency-based training manual that strengthens nurse-led service delivery in line with the evolving PHC model. The manual will focus on priority areas including non-communicable diseases, maternal and child health, mental health integration, preventive care, and referral coordination. 3. Designed, primarily as an orientation and in-service capacity-building tool for nurses working in PHC facilities, rather than a replacement or repetition of pre-service nursing curricula. The manual will enable nurses to operationalize the updated guidelines through hands-on modules, practical tools, supervision aids, and step-by-step implementation guidance, supported by mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating performance. The consultancy will also develop a Structured Training Implementation Plan: to support phased, scalable, and cost-conscious plan for national rollout, including institutional arrangements for training delivery. The plan will support initial piloting to test feasibility, identify operational challenges, and inform national scale-up within the West Bank context. All outputs must be evidence-informed, operationally feasible within the West Bank context, and aligned with MoH regulatory frameworks. The consultancy aims to strengthen nurse-led PHC services, improve quality and continuity of care, and contribute to advancing UHC in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt). ### Background:The Ministry of Health (MoH) is revising the 2013 Nursing Guidelines and Training Manual for Primary Health Care (PHC) and Family Health to align with the updated Essential Health Services Package (EHSP), Universal Health Coverage (UHC) principles, and WHO standards while addressing gaps in workforce competencies and emerging health priorities.
