This study focused on the effect of donor funded projects on the quality of maternal
healthcare with a special focus on Wajir County. The objectives of the study were to establish
the effect of recruitment of personnel and capacity building on quality of maternal health in
Wajir County; to determine the influence of access to maternal health services on the quality
of maternal health in Wajir County; and, to find out whether the availability of antenatal care
influence the quality of maternal health in Wajir County. The methodology that was
employed in this study was a descriptive design; systematic random sampling was used to
identify the respondents for the study. It is concluded the availability of donor funding
enabled recruitment and capacity building. The study recommends that given that in the event
of emergency the findings revealed that patients are referred to secondary clinics and that the
only two percent indicated attendance by a doctor, the study recommends that more doctors
should be hired by the primary facilities to be able to attend to emergencies. The study further
recommends that more facilities should be built to increase the accessibility of maternal
services by the residents of the county.
