“…Encouraging parents to spend time with their infants and actively participate in the care process can facilitate the development of parental roles and increase the satisfaction rate. [14] Bakewell-Sachs and Gennaro [15] have indicated that active maternal involvement in neonatal care and mother-infant contact (e.g. touching the baby) increases maternal confidence in taking care of the infant after discharge, and consequently lead to higher maternal satisfaction.…”

Background. Traditional systems of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) care predispose parents to increased levels of stress and anxiety due to parental separation from their infant. Parental satisfaction, an indicator of the quality of care, is significantly compromised during prolonged NICU stay. The research is limited in developing countries. Objectives. To assess the parental satisfaction with traditional systems of NICU care in a public sector hospital and to identify the areas that need improvement and can be worked upon. Methods. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to interview the parents of the neonates on the day of discharge. Fifteen questions were categorised into four domains, namely interpersonal relationships with staff, parents' involvement, staff competence and services offered by the health system. Parental satisfaction level was marked on a three-point Likert scale, 0 corresponding to highly dissatisfied, and 2 to completely satisfied for each of the 15 questions. Results. Out of 100 patients interviewed, communication was the chief determinant of their satisfaction. Parents expressed fair satisfaction levels with regard to the emotional support and encouragement received, but discontent at being unable to look after their own baby and breastfeed the baby. They were satisfied with the competence of the staff. Conclusion. The traditional system of NICU care was not satisfying for the parents in many aspects and changes in the form of familycentred care should be tried for greater parental satisfaction.

“…One of these investigations studied Chinese Americans, one studied Hispanics, and the last was a case study of a Mexican American mother (Denney, 2003;Hurst, 2003;Lee et al, 2003). In addition, only two studies included infants with anomalies ( Joseph, Mackley, Davis, Spear, & Locke, 2007;Pinelli, 2000) and five included adolescent mothers (Christopher, Bauman, & Vaness-Meehan, 2000;Correia, Carvalho, & Linhares, 2008;Orapiriyakul, Jirapaet, & Rodcumdee, 2007;van Riper, 2001;Wilenga, Smit, & Unk, 2006). Therefore, the question of whether SI is applicable to the study of these various populations becomes an important one.…”

The admission of an infant to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) has the potential to cause significant stress for the mothers of these infants. Researchers have found that nurse-mother communication has the potential to either aid or hinder the mother's adaptation to the NICU environment. These communication patterns are relatively complex in nature and therefore warrant further investigation. Symbolic interactionism (SI) is a theoretical framework that offers the potential to direct such an investigation. The purpose of this article is to examine nurse-mother communication patterns in the NICU through the theoretical lens of SI.
