Births Attended by Skilled Health Personnel (in the Human Development Area)

In this context, Births Attended by Skilled Health Personnel means: the percentage of deliveries attended by personnel (including doctors, nurses and midwives) trained to give the necessary care, supervision and advice to women during pregnancy, labour and the post-partum period; to conduct deliveries on their own; and to care for newborns. Traditional birth attendants, trained or not, are not included in this category.
