| dc.description.abstract | In many contexts community health workers (CHWs) are intended to expand the geographical accessibility of integrated primary health care (PHC) services at community level, including prevention, promotive, and curative health services such as integrated community case management (iCCM). However, there is little empirical evidence of the contribution of CHWs to geographical accessibility of integrated PHC services at community level, and approaches for optimising the scale and deployment of CHWs to maximize the geographical accessibility of integrated PHC services in low- and middleincome countries (LMICs). | en_US |
