Training needs, practices and barriers in the work of community reproductive health workers in Masindi district, Uganda.
Abstract
Community reproductive health workers play a valuable role in family planning counselling and the distribution of contraceptive methods in rural communities. However, they face stigma, misconceptions and a lack of support. Regular supervision by health workers and support from community leaders can help address these issues.
