Respectful Maternity Care is an approach to care which uses the approach of fundamental human right of the newborn, mother and families and also provides access to evidence based care giving preference to both newborn and mother. Mistreating pregnant women entails discrimination, failure to obtain consent for procedures like vaginal examination, episiotomy, induction of labour, caesarean section and so on physical and or verbal abuse, neglect, lack of supportive care, lack of privacy and so on.
