Abstract

Objective. To present the development of a training model called AMBAR (Atención a la mujer embarazada y al recién nacido [Care for pregnant women and newborns]), which was designed to improve the quality of attention of health personnel responsible for obstetric care. Materials and methods. AMBAR was designed based on the results of a qualitative study exploring public health providers’ needs and experiences. It was implemented in three health networks, and a total of 339 health personnel participated. Results. The educational design of the course was appealing to the trained personnel, and the inclusion of simulations in all modules encouraged interest, participation, as well as the integration of new knowledge and skills into practice. Conclusion. AMBAR can promote better practices and increase the quality of birth care. With the proper support and willingness of staff and management, AMBAR can be implemented in all health services, both public and private.
