A decision-tree model to evaluate the impacts of workforce investments aimed at strengthening emergency obstetric and neonatal care (EmONC) facilities in Burundi

Efforts to invest across the EmONC network if simply based on assigned B/CEmONC status may poorly allocate scarce resources. If resources are limited, investing in two additional midwives across the 104 EmONC facilities would be more efficient than implementing a full workforce package. However, health benefits of any workforce investment significantly depend on an enabling environment.

Abstract

Efforts to invest across the EmONC network if simply based on assigned B/CEmONC status may poorly allocate scarce resources. If resources are limited, investing in two additional midwives across the 104 EmONC facilities would be more efficient than implementing a full workforce package. However, health benefits of any workforce investment significantly depend on an enabling environment.
