Qualitative assessment of Targeted Intervention (TI) program is important for program effective operationlization.
Qualitative assessment of TI staff was made of 5 TI for truckers and 3 for migrants using semi-structured open ended questionnaire.
TI staff has adequate disease knowledge. Incomplete Record maintenance, non use of checklist for interpersonal communication and Condom stock outs along with absence of condom depot signboards was observed in most of the TI sites.
Non adherence to programmatic tools like interpersonal communication checklist and poor records management explains condom stock out and incorrect demonstration.
