The immediate benefits of supplying the essential items in one kit are:
• All the essential items are conveniently available at the time of delivery, decreasing the likelihood that unclean items will be used
• All the materials are new, clean, and provided in adequate quantities
• The use of single-use, disposable delivery kits by trained midwives may enhance the credibility of the kits in the community and encourage wider acceptance and use
