Addressing these issues is crucial for enhancing MCH service quality and improving health outcomes in the community. Highlight: Reliability Shortcomings: Health worker reliability affects patient appointment fulfillment. Incomplete Equipment: Lack of complete ultrasound equipment hampers service provision. Addressing Shortages: Resolving workforce and equipment deficiencies crucial for service enhancement Keyword: MCH services, Prambon Health Center, service quality, inhibiting factors, qualitative study
