dc.description.abstractThe study showed that common reasons for not attending antenatal care (ANC) included women’s lack of awareness of its importance (48%), distance to the health facility (23%) and unavailability of transportation (14%). Important determinants of ANC attendance included higher education level and wealth status, woman’s ability to make healthcare decisions, and pregnancy intendedness. ANC and insecticide-treated net (ITN) uptake during pregnancy in Jimma Zone fall below the respective targets set in the Ethiopian Health Sector Transformation Plan for 2020, suggesting that more intensive programmatic efforts still need to be directed towards improving access to these health services.en
