| Abstract: | This research set out to develop and validate a tool to assess the self-reported progress of Australian publicly funded maternity services towards the goal of culturally competent maternity care for Indigenous women. The tool aimed to measure the degree to which these services had incorporated actions towards achieving 14 identified characteristics into the current fabric of their organisation |
| Description: | The results of this study show that the survey assessing and identifying organisational cultural competence in public maternity care for Indigenous women demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity for a newly developed instrument. Responses to the survey provided participants of this study with a baseline for assessing further progress. Upon further testing and refinement, the survey can provide a validated tool to guide both national and local activity to improve the maternity experiences of Indigenous women. |
