The World Health Organization envisions a world where every pregnant woman and newborn receives quality care throughout pregnancy, delivery, and the postpartum period. Midwives are the primary care providers in many antenatal care settings. Healthcare providers emphasize the midwife-led continuity of care model as a way to establish a positive, trusting, and empathetic relationship with pregnant women. In many countries, midwives and obstetric nurses tend to provide relatively high levels of contact and continuity of care with pregnant women compared to other health professionals. In this study, the aim is to present how midwife polyclinics should be established and their functions by presenting them in light of international literature and guidelines and by synthesizing them within the scope of evidence-based practices and to present an application example (model) that can be used at national and international levels by introducing the sample midwife polyclinic service project established within the Ankara Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Gynecology and Obstetrics Training and Research Hospital.

“Ebe Polikliniği” Hizmet Modeli: Türkiye Başkentinden İyi Klinik Uygulama Örneği”

Öz

Dünya Sağlık örgütü, her gebe kadının ve yenidoğanın gebelik, doğum ve doğum sonrası dönem boyunca kaliteli bakım aldığı bir dünya öngörmektedir. Ebeler, birçok antenatal bakım ortamında birincil bakım sağlayıcılarıdır. Sağlık hizmeti sağlayıcıları, gebe kadınlarla olumlu, güvenilir ve empatik bir ilişki kurmanın bir yolu olarak ebe liderliğindeki bakım sürekliliği modelini vurgulamaktadır. Birçok ülkede, ebeler ve doğum hemşireleri, diğer sağlık profesyonellerine kıyasla gebe kadınlarla nispeten yüksek düzeyde temas ve bakım sürekliliğini sağlama eğilimindedir. Bu çalışmada Anakara Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi bünyesinde oluşturulan örnek ebe polikliniği hizmet projesinin tanıtımı ile, ebe polikiniklerinin nasıl oluşturulması gerektiğini ve işlevlerini uluslararası literatür ve rehberler ışığında ve kanıta dayalı uygulamalar kapsamında sentezleyerek ortaya koymak ve ulusal ve uluslararası düzeyde kullanılabilecek bir uygulama örneği(modeli) sunmaktır.
