Abstract

This study has attempted to increase understanding of the dynamics behind decisions to use professional health facilities for childbirth in Uganda, and specifically look at use in Hoima district. The study has been fairly small-scale, however, so it is hoped that further work may be done in the future to increase the scope of the study, and investigate some of the key questions in greater depth. However, some specific conclusions and policy recommendations can already be made at this stage.
