The PRIME II Project collaborated with the Kenya Ministry of Health and key stakeholders, including the Nursing Council of Kenya (NCK) and the National Nursing Association of Kenya (NNAK) to train private and NGO sector nurse-midwives in post abortion care. PRIME introduced the pilot program in 1999, which was a partnership approach to ensure stakeholder buy-in, create training and supervision structures within the private sector, and strengthen links between the private and public sectors. The pilot established PAC services by trained nurse-midwives at 44 private sector facilities in six districts, serving both urban and rural populations.
