In response to the need for affordable and comprehensive maternity care, a multidisciplinary team-based maternity care service led by general practitioners with obstetric training (GPOs) and midwives was established for women of low obstetric risk. We evaluated maternal satisfaction with this model of care. All women that attended the service and gave birth in 2020 were approached. Participants used an online survey to rate their satisfaction with aspects of their pregnancy, hospital stay and postpartum care and were invited to provide additional written feedback. Fifty percent (81/162) of women (33 ± 3.9 years) responded, with 59% primiparous. Proportions of participants that were very satisfied with their overall pregnancy, hospital stay, and postpartum care were 91%, <50%, and 85%, respectively. Both survey and qualitative data identified high satisfaction with emotional care and time afforded to discuss concerns during appointments. High levels of satisfaction can be achieved in women of low obstetric risk through the provision of GPO-midwife led multidisciplinary care throughout the maternity journey.
为满足人们对经济实惠且全面的孕产妇护理的需求,为低产科风险的女性建立了一种由接受过产科培训的全科医生(GPOs)和助产士主导的多学科团队孕产妇护理服务。我们评估了产妇对这种护理模式的满意度。我们联系了所有在2020年接受该服务并分娩的女性。参与者通过在线调查对她们在孕期、住院期间和产后护理方面的满意度进行评分,并被邀请提供额外的书面反馈。50%(81/162)的女性(33±3.9岁)做出了回应,其中59%为初产妇。对整体孕期、住院期间和产后护理非常满意的参与者比例分别为91%、<50%和85%。调查和定性数据均显示,参与者对情感关怀以及预约时用于讨论担忧的时间满意度很高。通过在整个孕产过程中提供由GPO-助产士主导的多学科护理,低产科风险的女性能够实现较高的满意度。
