Capacity<em>Plus</em> collaborated with the National Primary Health Care Development Agency to study factors underpinning attrition, availability, and retention of personnel and propose measures for motivating and retaining rural-based midwives. Presented at the <a href="http://hsr2014.healthsystemsresearch.org/">Third Global Symposium on Health Systems Research</a> in Cape Town, South Africa, on October 1, 2014, this poster presents findings from the study.</p> Health Workers Midwife Service Scheme Midwives Nigeria Presentations and Posters Retention Retention Rural Study Workforce Effectiveness Thu, 09 Oct 2014 19:29:50 +0000 Sarah Dwyer 1350 at https://www.capacityplus.org
