Structure
The number of midwives, nurses and doctors were constant throughout the two time periods and there were no major changes in equipment, physical structures or drugs available throughout the two months audited. At all times, the hospital was able to provide all CEmONC signal functions. The ratio of birth-attendant-to-labouring-women in the high-volume month of August and the low-volume month of November was 1:2.7 and 1:1.2 in daytime, and 1:3.0 and 1:1.3 during evenings, nights and weekends.
