Abstract:
The study found that many In Northern Nigeria, women still choose to deliver their babies outside of health facilities without the assistance of skilled attendants due to various interconnected factors related to inefficient health systems. These factors include unequal distribution of facilities, lack of communication and promotion about the benefits of delivering at healthcare facilities, and unaffordable skilled care. Inadequate human resources with negative attitudes and poor training of healthcare providers, along with inadequate quality of care, insufficient privacy, and space during delivery further discourage women from using facility-based delivery services
