Utilization of screening services on cervical cancer and associated factors among female health workers in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
The low screening services utilization among the targeted age group of female health workers is alarming. The lack of attention and feeling of healthy were hindering factors among those not yet screened, while those screened were motivated by the awareness created and physician recommendation. Continual awareness creation and training of female healthcare providers on cervical cancer and its screening is recommended to improve the screening service uptake by the women in the population.
