Journal Title: Revista Eletronica de Enfermagem - Year 2010, Vol 12, Issue 2

Abstract

The humanization is understood as a mutual responsibility between health services and the community, and it consists of reception and resolutivity. The objective of this paper was to think about aspects concerning the involvement of the partner inhumanized childbirth care and their interface with the health staff. The reflexion was based in the researchers experience and in an up-to-date literature. The text was organized in two parts: the partner as a factor for the humanization of childbirth and the partner of childbirth and their relation with the staff. The humanized care is important to make the delivery a positive and safe experience. Among the measures of the humanized delivery is the women´s right of choosing the natural delivery, and the one of being accompanied. The relationship between partner and health staff is complex, considering the limitation of the former participation in the delivery. It is a process which is being constructed, and it involves physical-environmental aspects of the health institutions, professional qualification, and the own culture of the users which is, until nowadays, very submissive before their rights as citizens.
