Effect of a structured teaching programme on mothers’ knowledge and utilisation of oral rehydration solution

We concluded that the structured teaching programme significantly improved mothers' knowledge and utilisation of oral rehydration solution in the management of diarrhoea in children under 5 years of age at Life-changing Eudaimonia Hospital, Jos.Contribution: Based on the findings of this study, we suggest that policy makers should develop programmes that support education campaigns on oral rehydration therapy among family caregivers, especially in rural areas with poor access to health care.
