The source population was all reproductive age group mothers. Bivariate and multiple logistic regression was conducted. Results Institutional delivery was 304 (74%). Factors associated with increased likelihood of institutional delivery were owning a radio or television, making more than four antenatal care visits, knowing at least one maternity service advantage.
