808<p>A building may be fit for purpose, but without the equipment, utilities and services needed to function, it offers little promise to the thousands who depend on it. This is the reality of Shongo Hamma Health Post in Akko Local Government Area (LGA) in Gombe State.</p>
809
810
811
812<p>For many women in Shongo Hamma, these limitations affect when and where they seek maternal care. Two women interviewed for this report, whose names are withheld, started ANC at six and seven months of pregnancy, respectively.</p>

822<p>Mrs Michelle Elisha, a senior nurse in the health post, explained that community outreaches often generate interest in antenatal care (ANC), but the facility’s inability to conduct deliveries discourages continued use. “<em>The difference is almost immediately watered down when they learn that we can&#8217;t take deliveries</em>.”</p>

834<p>The facility is a Basic Health Care Provision Fund (<a href="https://nphcda.gov.ng/bhcpf/">BHCPF</a>) focal facility, yet access to sustained funding and essential supplies remains dangerously limited. The health post lacks electricity, water, a usable toilet, and essential medicines. It also has no signpost to help community members locate the facility.</p>
835
836
837
838<p>With the distance of over 5KM to the nearest primary health centre (PHC), some women have resorted to traditional birth methods.</p>

846<p>The challenges extend to the health workers themselves. Mrs Ladi Abubakar, the officer in charge, said: “<em>I had to buy a Blood pressure machine for antenatal care and a locker to keep our files and ANC equipment in it</em>.”</p>
847
848
849
850<p>The facility also relies on its only family planning bed for ANC services, further demonstrating the pressure on available resources.</p>

858<p>The conditions at Shongo Hamma Health Post place limitations on the range and quality of services available to a population of more than 15,000 people. Despite its BHCPF status, the facility continues to face significant gaps requiring urgent attention.</p>
