April Collective – Quality of Care

Quality of Care

Quality of care leaders (policy-makers, implementing partners and researchers) shared their experience and learning in their efforts to improve quality of care for maternal and newborn health and develop quality systems to support implementation. They explored opportunities around leadership, learning action, learning, and accountability.

A mistake is that we often start with coverage and quality comes as an afterthought. Quality cannot be a footnote in the plan – it needs to go hand in hand with coverage.
