Identifying Mechanisms to Strengthen Facilities Providing Delivery and Newborn Care Services (more)
Although rates of maternal mortality have decreased in Bangladesh, utilization of facility-based delivery care has remained low because of facility shortcomings and service non-availability; the Council conducted this study to determine the sources of these shortcomings and to identify mechanisms to strengthen facilities, thereby increasing facility-based delivery and further reducing maternal and infant mortality in rural Bangladesh.
