Frontline health workers are critical to the provision of effective counselling about family planning and support to women on the correct use of contraceptives. This guide outlines an approach for assessing and improving the quality of primary health care to reduce unplanned pregnancies. It builds on the need for bottom-up planning and action by engaging local staff to identify and solve problems. By collecting and monitoring facility data, progress can be tracked and continuously improved.
