Abstract

Technology of delivery of health care for developing countries is not a resolved issue. Moreover, maternity
care differs from other areas of health care in many ways. Developing countries have to carefully adapt to
what has been done in developed countries. Recent debate and data on maternity health care organisation
have been in favour of midwifery-led maternity care. Midwifery-led maternity care is described as the best
and necessary part of the sufficiently and thus inevitably health producing maternity health care organisation.
Key Words: Midwifery-led maternity care, maternity health care organisation, midwives, doctors.
