Abstract

This descriptive study investigates the satisfaction of mothers regarding nursing care related to delivery at selected primary health center (PHC) in Mysore. The investigator used a descriptive study design; a purposive sampling technique was used to select the 80 mothers delivered in selected PHC in Mysore based on sample selection criteria, and a structured interview schedule was adopted. Information from the samples was gathered through interviews, and the data underwent analysis utilizing SPSS version 11. The study shows that satisfaction of mothers regarding the interpersonal relationship of the nurses was high (85.2%) [(M = 17.04) (SD = 2.59)], and satisfaction of mothers regarding physical care was low (79.95%) [(M = 31.98) (SD = 5.95)]. The overall satisfaction of mothers regarding nursing care delivery was high (82.7%). The sex of the baby is independently associated with the satisfaction of mothers = 2.795 (P>0.05). None of the institutional factors were independently associated with the satisfaction of mothers. The study concludes that nurses need to improve their skills in all aspects of physical care for mothers during delivery. Ensuring 100% satisfaction requires nurses to deliver quality care in their workplace, utilizing resources, manpower, and time effectively to satisfy the needs of the patient. Adequate nursing care is crucial for postpartum mothers. The government can also organize an in-service educational programme for the nursing staff working in the PHC to provide quality care to the mothers and also provide facilities for the nursing staff working in the PHC.
