Improving child health care in Botswana: what can be done?
Abstract
Access to appropriate healthcare for children remains a challenge in Botswana, as evidenced by the under five mortality rate and integrated management of childhood illness indicators. Successful implementation of the integrated management of childhood illnesses strategy can drastically reduce child mortality through innovation, national health care worker training coverage, enhanced supervision and use of guidelines.
