This study assessed the implementation of Nepal’s National Health Policy at the local level, finding that health workers had moderate awareness, with main challenges including inadequate infrastructure, limited skilled professionals, and insufficient funding. Regular use of technology significantly improved policy implementation, and younger, less experienced staff demonstrated more positive attitudes toward the policy. Despite some familiarity with local initiatives, the majority of participants emphasized the need for more training and resources to strengthen effective policy execution.
