Geospatial Distribution, Accessibility and Utilization of Basic Emergency Obstetric and New-born Care in Jigawa State, Northwest Nigeria.
A dispersed distribution and good physical accessibility to BEmONC facilities were found, however, utilization was poor. Distance and mode of transportation were predictors of utilization of BEmONC services. Jigawa State Government should intensify awareness campaigns to improve the utilization of BEmONC services and provide emergency transport schemes for women with obstetric complications.
