description This survey was conducted on facility readiness at the selected 239 facilities to determine the level of site preparedness with respect to human resource (health providers and volunteer community mobilizers), equipment availability and rate of service utilization.The survey of program data spanned over a 3-day period with visits to 115 facilities (40 in the Southern and Northern Zones each and 35 in the Central Zone of the state) and questionnaires administered to 2 Healthcare workers and 5 Clients per facility on their ANC days. 23 enumerators were recruited for data collection. A soft copy quantitative tool scripted on the Open Data Kit (ODK) app was used by the personnel during this exercise. Quantitative and Qualitative Data retrieved from the ODK tool was analysed by the G-ANC SI team using a descriptive analysis methodin Excel 2016 and SPSS version 26.The major findings of this study revealed that 149(68.98%) out of 216 respondents affirmed that their facilities have conducive ANC meeting Space (Conducive to accommodate minimum of 20 pregnant women) while 67(31.02%) said ‘no’ their facilities do not have that capacity. The study further found out that over 137(63.43%) of the facilities do not have any source of electricity. Similarly, 119(55.09%) health facilities do not have portable and accessible water supply. For a new service delivery model to have a transformational influence on maternal health care, it needs to be available to a large portion of the population. G-ANC should be expended to both private and tertiary hospitals with low ANC census.
