Mother's satisfaction with the existing labor and delivery care services at public health facilities in West Shewa zone, Oromia region, Ethiopia.

The overall satisfaction of mothers with LAD services at public health facilities in the West-Shewa zone was relatively low. Presence of cultural practices, discussion on the place of delivery, asking for consent before the procedure, encouraging companion to remain with mothers and explaining what is being done were factors identified. Therefore, all stakeholders have to emphatically work on those identified factors to improve mothers' satisfaction with LAD services.
