Abstract

The Breakthrough RESEARCH project conducted a behavioral surveillance survey for health among women who had a pregnancy or birth in the previous two years. Only about one out of three (35%) women in Zamfara state sought care from a formal medical provider for their child under two years of age with fever. The behavioral surveillance survey identified three important factors for improving care seeking from a formal medical provider for children with fever.
