Abbreviations: ANOVA, analysis of variance; HRH, human resources for health; ISS, integrated supportive supervision.

^aValues marked with an asterisk (*) along rows are significantly different compared with visit 1 (P < .05). The level of significance in mean difference was determined using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn post hoc test.

^bNumber of facilities with scores of ≤70% after the first visit.

^cValues marked with an asterisk (*) along rows are significantly different compared with visit 1 (P < .05). The level of significance in mean difference was determined using ANOVA followed by Tukey post hoc test.
