abstract: 'Objectives: to explore barriers experienced by community midwives (CMWs)
when delivering services, from their own and their managers
perspectives, at provincial and district level in the context of
organisational factors, and to determine other factors linked with the
poor performance of CMWs in the delivery of maternal, neonatal and child
health (MNCH)-related services within their communities.
Design: qualitative study design using in-depth interviews (IDIs) and
focus group discussions (FGDs).
Setting: two districts in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab provinces in
Pakistan.
Participants.: 41 participants were interviewed in depth; they included
CMWs, lady health supervisors and managerial staff of the MNCH
programme.
Measurements: participants were interviewed about administrative issues
including Financial and policy areas, training and deployment in the
community, functioning in the community, and supervision and referral
for emergency cases.
Findings: CMWs reported financial constraints, training needs and
difficulty with building relationships in the community. They required
support in terms of logistics, essential supplies, and mechanisms for
referral of complicated cases to higher-level health facilities.
Conclusions: CMWs working in developing countries face many challenges;
starting from their training. deployment in the field and delivery of
services in their respective communities. Facilitating their work and
efforts through improved programming of the CMW''s services can overcome
these challenges.
Implications for practice: the MNCH programme, provincial government and
other stakeholders need to take ownership of the CMW programme and
implement it comprehensively. Long-term adequate resource allocation is
needed to sustain the programme so that improvements in maternal and
child health are visible. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.'
