| Summary, etc. | The modern health system of most countries is not based on cultural sensitivity towards indigenous women. Indigenous women in many settings do not access the formal health system especially maternal care. As a consequence, maternal complications arise due to large proportion of home births. Generally, this study intends to establish a culturally sensitive birthing facility to improving the maternal health indices among the Obu Manuvus in barangay Bantol, Marilog District. Specifically, it aims to determine the reasons of the decreased utilization of birthing facility among the Obu Manuvus in the barangay and identify culturally sensitive strategies that can be utilized to increase the use of the birthing facility. A qualitative type of study design was utilized. Focused group discussion were done among the Obu Manuvu tribal leaders, traditional birth attendants and Obu Manuvu women who have experience giving birth at home combined with key Informant Interviews. The results showed that the decreased utilization of birthing facility among the Obu Manuvus in the barangay od multifactorial. It is mainly caused by traditional birth attendants as culturally acceptable health providers, perceived quality of care with health facilities, low awareness and empowerment among women, and financial constraints and cost of services. Participants also cited their perceived complications of home delivery. It showed that hemorrhage, prolonged labor and malpresentation as the greatest fear in home delivery. Several possible strategies that are considered culture sensitive were suggested in the key informant interviews and focus group discussions. The following suggested strategies will hopefully increase the utilization of the birthing facility (1) capacitating the health providers regarding cultural sensitivity (2) advocate redesigning the modern birthing facility that takes into account the cultural preference and needs of IP women during childbirth (3) integration of the traditional attendants into modern health system ($) sensitization IP women and their families on the importance of giving birth with a skilled birth attendant and preparation of a birth and emergency plan, and (5) formulation of a local IP MNCHN policy. By establishing a culturally sensitive birthing facility, the Obu Manuvus of Barangay Bantol now have better access to the modern health services with consequent improvement in the maternal health indices. |
