They found that increasing the doctor density from one to two doctors per 10,000 people decreased the predicted probability of death by 27%. Their proposed temporary solution is to redistribute healthcare workers equitably throughout the country, which would bring down the mortality rate and LTFU, while the government addressed their difficulty in retaining migrant healthcare workers and improve their domestic training programs.

The third tier has three referral based hospitals that are specialized. Botswana's hospital bed density in 2010 was 1.8 beds per 1000 people. 279:. The prevention of diarrhea in this continent has become a public health challenge since its multiple sources of determinants, such as the insecurity of breastfeeding from HIV positive mothers, the unpredictability of climate changes and unqualified public hygiene preparation, thus highlighting the importance of understanding the nature of the disease and relevant strategies to address the issue. 74:(PHC) services in Botswana are integrated within overall hospital services, being provided in the outpatient sections of all levels of hospitals.
