The qualitative study will be conducted to understand the contextual factors and behavioural determinants affecting adherence to prescriptions by patient/caregivers and the associated communication about prescriptions by healthcare workers. The findings will inform the Training and Communication package which will be implemented as part of the clinical intervention arm consisting of diagnostic algorithms, POCTs, prescribing decision trees, clinic process flow, training and communication on adherence to prescription. Further research using the capacity, opportunity and motivation (COM-B) model [20] together with the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) [21] during the recruitment phase will investigate the wider behaviour change implications of adherence to prescription beyond the Training and Communication package, as well as the long-term effects of behavioural determinants for healthcare workers who choose to use the clinical algorithms, new point-of-care RDTs and associated prescribing practices.
