compassionate care in childbirth
Compassionate care in childbirth involves respectful, empathetic support for women throughout pregnancy, labor, and after delivery. It emphasizes listening to their needs, providing emotional reassurance, and ensuring comfort and dignity. This approach fosters trust, reduces anxiety, and promotes positive experiences by prioritizing the mother’s well-being and preferences, alongside physical health. Healthcare providers work collaboratively with women, recognizing childbirth as a personal, significant event, and aim to create a safe, reassuring environment that acknowledges each individual’s values and choices.
