Maternal Nursing

Maternal nursing, also known as maternity nursing, entails providing healthcare services to women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Maternal nurses support women throughout the entire process of pregnancy, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being, as well as that of their babies. This can involve prenatal care, labor and delivery assistance, and postpartum care. Maternal nurses educate expectant mothers on prenatal nutrition, childbirth preparation, breastfeeding techniques, newborn care, and postpartum recovery. They also monitor the health of both mother and baby, administer medications as needed, and provide emotional support to families during this significant life transition.
