- W2328897615 abstract "There has been issue of gender and gender equality emerging as a major concern in international forums due to general assertion that females are more vulnerable to health disadvantages than males. Gender concerns regarding health issues include the issue of gender inequality in terms of access and use of healthcare, since males and females, particularly in developing countries differ in their access and use of healthcare and health outcomes. This research therefore examines the gender difference in the uptake of healthcare in rural Ghana. A population-based cross-sectional and quantitative survey using a total of 286 systematically sampled households from four rural communities was employed for the study. Formal face-to-face household level structured interview was used to collect data. Data were analysed using Pearson’s Chi square and multiple regression from the SPSS version 20. Overall, 74% (n=117) of females and 63.3% (n=81) of males had utilized healthcare for at least once in their last four illnesses preceding the survey. Also, the factors that influence the use of healthcare by the rural people include age, education, household size, staff attitude and insurance status. However, there were some differences between males and females in terms of the extent of influence of factors on utilization. Age, education and service quality greatly influenced service utilization for males than females, whereas insurance status, household size and staff attitude had greater influence on utilization for females than males. The study therefore recommends equitable distribution of health facilities, improvement of educational opportunities and health insurance services, and effective supervision of healthcare providers as measures to promote gender equity in the use of healthcare in rural areas in Ghana." @default.
