Rural and Remote Health, 09/04/09
Dalal K et al. – Results from logistic regression analyses indicate that respondents' education, economic status and standard of living are significant predictors for non–utilization of public health care facilities. Women who sought the services of care delivery and health check–ups indicated that health personnel were absent. Service seekers for self and child's medical treatments indicated that there were no nearby health facilities, service times were inconvenient, there were long waiting times and poor quality health care. This study concludes that improving public health care facilities with user–friendly opening times, the regular presence of staff, reduced waiting times and improved quality of care are necessary steps to reducing maternal mortality and poverty.
