EXPERIENCES OF ACCESSING MATERNITY CARE IN THE UK: PERSPECTIVE FROM SOMALI MIGRANT WOMEN IN LEICESTER

INTRODUCTION Migrant women born in Somalia often have poorer pregnancy outcomes. Access to care around pregnancy is vital to improve outcomes. The views and experiences of Somali migrant women accessing maternity care in the UK have not been extensively explored. This study therefore explores and describes these with regard to accessing maternity care in the UK, with the hope of gaining a better understanding of perceptions and factors that influence their access to care around pregnancy.
METHODS A qualitative approach was used to investigate the views and experiences of women born in Somalia who had migrated to Leicester. Data collected were transcribed and analyzed using a constant comparison method. The software package Nvivo 10 was used to organize themes, and verbatim quotes were used to support their interpretation.
RESULTS Main finings included: 1) positive attitudes of community midwives and availability lead to positive and meaningful experiences; 2) language difficulties and ineffective communication are barriers to effective access; 3) lack of cultural awareness
and preconceived ideas by some hospital caregivers makes them unsupportive and insensitive; 4) need for continuity of care and the provision of resources are needed to build important trusting relationships with care providers; and 5) personal, community and religious factors impact access to care.
CONCLUSIONS The results highlight a number of important potential barriers to accessing care around pregnancy for migrant women born in Somalia and how these could be addressed to improve pregnancy outcomes.
