Mozambique--delegation of responsibility in the area of maternal care.
The shortage of physicians in Mozambique has necessitated the training and delegation of maternity care to other available health personnel, such as traditional birth attendants, midwives, and nurses. In addition, surgical technicians have been trained to perform major surgical procedures, including cesarean sections and hysterectomies.
