We report on a data driven participatory quality improvement intervention implemented in a high HIV prevalence district in South Africa. A participatory quality improvement intervention was implemented consisting of an initial assessment undertaken by a team of district supervisors, workshops to assess results, identify weaknesses and set improvement targets and continuous monitoring to support changes.enPublic healthNevirapineHIVWomenSouth AfricaArticle
