Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Maternal Care Program(MCP)-carried out by trained home care nurses on self-efficacy and postpartum depression in mothers with preterm babies. Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study comparing the effects of an MCP on self-efficacy and postpartum depression before Participants were 34 mothers who were referred to the home care nursing center of the C University Hospital in Seoul from April 8 2014 to January 12 2015. Results: The average self-efficacy score was 97.24 points before and 123.26 points after receiving the program, showing a significant increase of 26.03 points (p<.001). Postpartum depression scores were 8.65 points before the program and 5.56 points after, showing a significant decrease of 3.09 points (p<.001). Conclusions: The normal development of preterm babies was confirmed-through regular physical examinations in the MCP. Professional services were provided by-education and consultation on problems related to child-rearing and health to deal with psychological and social problems as well as physical care to mothers by trained home care nurses.
