Resumen
[EN] Background and Purpose: The role of older women close to the pregnant woman
may be relevant when conveying information. The use of theories/models can
guide the development of nursing practice. Purpose: To explore beliefs and practices
related to pregnancy and childbirth from the perspective of older women who gave
birth at home, applying Leininger’s Sunrise Model. Methods: Qualitative approach,
using semi-structured interviews with 24 older women who gave birth at home
(rural area, Spain). Manual content analysis of the data was used, and Sunrise
Model guided to explore the role of culture and the factors affecting maternity care.
Results: Two main categories emerged: beliefs/practices related to physiological
aspects (subcategories: minimal intervention, hygiene, pain control, rest, feeding)
and to psychosocial aspects (subcategories: spiritual well-being, company). Implications
for Practice: The experiences of older women who gave birth at home
helped us to understand some beliefs that survive in some pregnant women, similar
in different cultures, and divided into physiological and psychosocial aspects.
An interesting fact to consider to provide cultural care. Older women have a relevant
role as transmitters of information, and can provide some keys to plan health
interventions, as companions or counselors. Applying the Sunrise Model, we verified
the weight that culture has in maternal health care, and the multiple factors that
interfere with the way of caring. The application of models helps us to improve nursing
practice: not only should we focus on knowing the physical aspects, but also the
social and cultural circumstances surrounding the pregnant woman.
