Abstract: | The study considered the effect of the integration of the health services on family planning in Trinidad and Tobago. A drop-out study was based on a sample of six clinics, three representing integrated and three clinics that were non-integrated or vertical. Efforts were also made to solicit the views of a sample of drop outs, current acceptors and health-care providers.The study found that there were characteristics of the population from which acceptors were drawn that were more important in explaining utilization than the question of integration or non-integration of the clinics. Many of the problems were organizational and could, with adequate financing, be met by an even higher level of integration. |
