Mariam Mobote

Background: Maternal and Child Health (MCH) clients that visit PHCs are often low income earners, mostly women, their children, and families are at extraordinary risk of receiving poor or no health care.

About 61.1% were satisfied and 28.4% of the respondents were very satisfied with the attitude of the doctor, while 55.6% satisfied and 21.1% of the mothers were satisfied with the attitude of the nurses. Age group, number of children, ethnicity, and attitude of health providers was statistically associated to overall level of satisfaction.
