This reflects the observation that for women delivering at home without ready access to emergency obstetrical care, support from traditional birth attendants proved inadequate to substantially reduce risk of death for the mother or newborn. Considerable effort has been expended in many settings to help ensure that women give birth with the assistance of qualified human resources, specifically a health worker, and generally in a health facility.<\/p>\n<p>However, in many instances there has not\u00a0been equal attention given to the actual substance of the care provided or the necessary supports to enable health workers to provide adequate care. In recent years, there has been increasing attention in program work to the quality and content of maternal-newborn services, particularly around the time of birth. This is reflected in current work at the World Health Organization on improving quality of maternal-newborn health care.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1\/2\"][vc_column_text]Part of what is implied in the \u201cskilled birth attendance\u201d strategy is that assisting in childbirth does not necessarily require a physician. Many interventions related to maternal-newborn health can be competently delivered by categories of health workers with comparatively modest training.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, certain maternal-newborn services can be provided by categories of health workers labelled as \u201ccommunity health workers\u201d (CHWs). This is a broad designation that includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Health auxiliaries with training sometimes approaching that of registered nurses<\/li>\n<li>Paid full-time workers with several months of basic training<\/li>\n<li>Non-salaried but financially \u201cincentivized\u201d workers, typically working less than full-time<\/li>\n<li>Volunteers providing services on a periodic or intermittent basis with little or no financial incentives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=\"13796\" add_caption=\"yes\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"appear\"][vc_column_text]In some settings, there is more than one tier of CHWs.\u00a0When robustly supported (as they can be under project conditions), non-salaried and volunteer CHWs have been demonstrated as effective for various maternal- and newborn-related services. There are fewer examples of such work being effectively delivered at national scale, under non-project conditions. A very important but frequently neglected factor is the supports needed for effective programs.<\/p>\n<p>The issue is not so much,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>can <\/strong>CHWs be effective for a particular service?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But rather,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>what supports are necessary<\/strong> for effectiveness?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong>are such supports feasible at scale<\/strong> under normal, non-project conditions?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Program efforts commonly address health worker knowledge and skills. This is typically done primarily by training. Motivation is less often given focused attention. Certainly, some aspects of performance can be positively affected by financial incentives, although such incentives can also have unintended negative consequences. However, motivation is more than just a matter of incentives.<\/p>\n<p>In many settings, legitimate and illegitimate absences from work significantly undermine reliable access to services. This can be a consequence, for example, of frequent off-site trainings. There are also many settings where health workers are either frequently away from their posts without authorization or where they offer services only for very limited periods of time each day.<\/p>\n<p>Even when health workers are at their posts, their practices are affected not only by material they may have been exposed to in training but also by other influences on what they consider appropriate care. For example, health workers may be well aware of what treatments are recommended or authorized in national treatment guidelines but may -- for any number of reasons -- prefer to offer treatments not reflected in official protocols. For human resources program efforts to be effective in ensuring availability of appropriate care, they need to respond to the actual factors influencing health worker practices.<\/p>\n<p>Supervision is often mentioned as an important performance factor in health worker practices. Certainly under project conditions, there are numerous examples of \u201csupportive technical supervision\u201d or \u201cmentoring\u201d that appear to have made a positive contribution to quality of care. There are, however, far fewer examples of this function being effectively delivered under non-project conditions. Health-facility-level quality improvement efforts can serve a somewhat similar function, whereby groups of health staff work collectively to improve performance, holding each other accountable.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<strong>Key resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.who.int\/iris\/handle\/10665\/77764\">WHO Recommendations: Optimizing health
