Autor Mangvwat Armstrong
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 dec 2012
The Obasanjo administration(1999-2007)embarked on several reforms in the social institutions of Nigeria.The health sector was one that the reforms were enacted upon.The health policy was reviewed and modified by stake holders in the health sector.The study is an evaluation of the reproductive health reforms policy on maternal mortality of women in Jos North from 1999-2007.The research method was based on Focus Group Discussions in three residential areas of Jos North namely Millionaires quarters,University of Jos community and Angwan Rogo areas.The study also collected secondary data from the Jos University Teaching Hospital on maternal mortality.In conclusion,it was discovered that the level of awareness and knowledge on the reproductive health policy on maternal mortality was restricted to ones social class and cultural values in society.Maternal mortality was reducing as there was an improvement in the standard of living in Jos North and that women are consciously making efforts at getting antenatal services to avoid maternal mortality and not necessarily because there is a policy on reproductive health and maternal mortality, though access to health care is still an issue.
