This is the only book to present the evidence-based policies and procedures that medical and nonmedical staff can use to develop mother-friendly care in their facilities. The Mother-Friendly Childbirth Initiative (MFCI), developed by the Coalition for Improving Maternity Services (CIMS), is an evidence-based wellness model designed to improve birth outcomes and increase patient satisfaction. It is the first and only consensus document on U.S. maternity care and is recognized as an important instrument for change in the United States and abroad. This mother- baby-, and family-friendly model focuses on prevention and wellness as alternatives to high-cost screening, diagnosis, and treatment programs. At its heart are 10 protocols with detailed policies and procedures along with supporting statistical information and resources that facilitate the implementation of change. Eschewing all practices not supported by scientific evidence, these 10 steps are intended to increase vaginal birth-even when it follows a cesarean-, facilitate breastfeeding, provide culturally competent care, prevent unnecessary interventions and traumatic births, and eliminate routine interventions such as continuous fetal monitoring, withholding of food and fluids, and restriction of movement to name a few. The book also traces the development of mother-friendly care, it includes implementation strategies for the evidence-based nursing care training programs of Lamaze, ICEA, and AVVHONN, and supports the WHO-UNICEF |Ten Steps of the Baby-friendly Hospital Initiative| to promote successful breastfeeding. Included in the appendix are self-evaluation tools that can be used to rate current practices.
