Utilization of Integrated Community Case Management Service and Associated Factors Among Mothers/Caregivers Who Have Sick Eligible Children in Southern Ethiopia.

The magnitude of the utilization of integrated community case management was low in the study area. Mother/caregiver's education of secondary and above, having good knowledge of childhood illness, history of mother's/caretaker's visit to the health post, short distance to the health post, and perceived high severity of disease and presence of cough were factors significantly determining service utilization. Therefore, health education should be provided to mothers by Health Extension Workers, community leaders, and organizations.
