Abstract
Aid post orderlies in one district of the Southern Highlands Province were trained to give immunizations to children as part of the Expanded Programme on Immunization. The performance of the aid post orderlies (APOs) as immunizers is compared with that of the traditional maternal and child health (MCH) team. Also the results of the combined efforts of the APOs and MCH sisters in this pilot district are compared with those in a control district. The joint APO-MCH effort was more successful than the traditional approach in reaching national immunization targets.Entities:
