This is a process evaluation of the RCT, Group Antenatal Care and Delivery project (GRAND) to identify and document patient, provider, and system barriers and facilitators to program implementation.
Using both quantitative and qualitative methods, potential and actual influences on the quality and conduct of the program's operations, implementation, and service delivery were identified.
Only the seven (7) sites randomized to the Group ANC (G-ANC) intervention were included for collection of process evaluation data since the evaluation was of G-ANC implementation.
Data were collected from August 2019 to November 2020 and included both quantitative and qualitative data sources.
