Healthcare Providers' Experiences With a Clinical Mentorship Intervention to Improve Reproductive, Maternal and Newborn Care in Mwanza, Tanzania.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

There is increasing evidence suggesting that clinical mentorship (CM) involving on-the-job training is one of the critical resources-friendly entry points for strengthening the knowledge and skills of healthcare providers (HCPs), which in turn facilitate the delivery of effective reproductive, maternal, and newborn health (RMNH) care. The article explores the experiences of HCPs following participation in the CM program for RMNH in eight districts of Mwanza Region in Tanzania.

Materials and methods

A qualitative descriptive design employing data from midterm project review meetings and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) with purposefully selected HCPs (mentors and mentees) and District Medical Officers (DMOs) during endline evaluation were employed. Interview data
