| contents | <p>Community health interventions are crucial for improving maternal health outcomes in rural areas of Sub-Saharan Africa, where access to healthcare services is often limited. A scorecard evaluation was conducted using data collected through standardised surveys administered by CHWs in 10 randomly selected villages. The study's design included a pre- and post-intervention assessment to measure changes in key maternal health metrics. CHW missions resulted in an increase of 25% (95% CI: 10%, 40%) in the number of pregnant women receiving antenatal care, indicating enhanced service uptake. Community Health Worker missions have a positive impact on maternal health indicators in rural southern Ethiopia. Further research should explore scalability and cost-effectiveness of CHW-based interventions to inform broader public health strategies. Community Health Workers, Maternal Health, Rural Ethiopia, Scorecard Evaluation Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.</p> |
