Looking into opportunities for maternity continuum of care improvement within the primary health care system in Northwest Ethiopia: primary health care-oriented research
This study finds that there are several structural, input, and service delivery opportunities for enhancing the MCC within the PHC system in northwest Ethiopia. These opportunities indicate potential pathways to strengthen PHC resilience for MCC. Widespread utilization of these opportunities could significantly improve the existing MCC within the PHC system. We also recommend further research to assess the impact of these opportunities on MCC.
