What Are the Challenges in Providing MCH Services?
Several challenges can hinder the provision of effective MCH services:
1. Access to Care: Geographic, economic, and cultural barriers can limit access to essential healthcare services for women and children, particularly in low-resource settings. 2. Health Workforce: A shortage of trained healthcare professionals can impact the quality and availability of MCH services. 3. Funding: Insufficient funding for health programs can lead to gaps in service delivery and hinder the implementation of comprehensive MCH interventions. 4. Data Quality: Inaccurate or incomplete health data can affect the ability to monitor and evaluate MCH services effectively.
