Abstract

Objective

To verify the perception of the nursing team about safe motherhood in a maternal hospitalization unit in a maternal and child hospital.

Methods

Qualitative descriptive study of an exploratory nature. Fifty participants were interviewed with three guiding questions. The analysis was Bardin’s content analysis.

Results

Three categories were developed: 1. Understanding safe maternity; 2. The function of Nursing in safe maternity; 3. Proposals to improve care in the current context.

Conclusion

It was noticed that the nursing team has some deficit about safe motherhood, because it was expected that they would contemplate in their speeches the eight steps for a safe motherhood, which did not occur.
