Exploring the role of district clinical specialist teams in maternal health outcomes in a South African district: A mixed method study from 2012 to 2020

Abstract

The DCST was perceived by local peers as a successful strategy to improve maternal health services in a district health service. This success is likely rooted in its focused intervention measures, within a supportive environment of district managers and health professionals. Such district-based clinical teams are a potential strategy to improve maternal health services within primary healthcare services.
