The goal of this cluster randomized controlled trial is to learn if a practice facilitation package (including both audit and feedback and enhanced mentorship) can increase the use of maternal and perinatal death surveillance and response (MPDSR) in Kenyan health facilities and reduce maternal and perinatal deaths. Twenty facilities will be enrolled (10 intervention; 10 control) and the intervention will be tested with facility staff including the MPDSR committee members and facility administrators. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does the practice facilitation package improve the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of MPDSR in Kenyan health facilities? * What is the primary pathway through which the practice facilitation package influences MPDSR implementation with fidelity? Researchers will compare outcomes between the intervention and control facilities to see if the practice facilitation package influences the degree to which facility MPDSR committees can complete all of the steps of the MPDSR process. Participants in both intervention and control facilities will be asked to respond to short surveys and engage in focus group discussions. Participants in the intervention facilities will be asked to engage regularly with the practice facilitators in enhanced mentorship and audit and feedback.
