Urban Health Extension Program and Health Services Utilization in Northwest Ethiopia: A Community-Based Study.

The overall utilization of the urban health extension program was low compared to the national recommendation. Occupation, knowledge of participants towards UHEP, accessibility of health extension services, and participants' perception about the competency of HEWs were factors associated with utilization of UHEP. Therefore, awareness creation, in-service training, improving the accessibility of services and frequency of contact with mothers at the household level will increase the services utilization.
