About the Study
Everyone deserves safe, respectful, and high-quality maternity care. This study is about understanding the perspectives of mothers, partners, family members, and support persons who have experienced—or whose loved ones have experienced—severe maternal morbidity (SMM) or severe pregnancy complications, and to use those insights to improve care and support systems.
