The role of institutions in influencing maternal and children under-five health care in Ghana

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Strong pre-natal and post-natal healthcare are key indicators of the development level of every nation. This paper explores the role of institutional structures and how they influence the maternal and under-five (0-59month old) healthcare in Ghana. Drawing on multidisciplinary approach, this study made used of both qualitative - semi-structural interviews with officials from the GHS and selected hospitals in Ghana. The study shows that institutions play out to have some negative effect on maternal and child health care policy implementations but positively influence the health policy decision process and agenda settings. There is a need to put in place comprehensive policy and effective institutional system that will not only make decisions but monitor and assesse policy intervention that aim at reducing maternal and under-five mortality in Ghana.
