Description
Emergency care for mothers and newborns can prevent many deaths, yet its quality varies across hospitals in Ethiopia. Tolera Gudissa Damme, Sileshi Garoma Abeya, and Dereje Bayissa Demissie assessed that care in 2026 at four public hospitals in West Shoa Zone. They audited the facilities and studied 348 mothers through observation, exit interviews, and record reviews.
Scores for inputs, care process, and outcomes were all in the acceptable range, near four fifths. Two factors stood out as linked to how satisfied mothers felt: how long they waited for care, and how long they stayed in hospital. Longer waits and stays both lowered satisfaction. The authors urge stronger supplies, facilities, and adherence to care standards.
