The Effect of Postpartum Contraceptive Method Counselling on the Intention to Use Family Planning Methods
Sponsor: Istanbul Saglik Bilimleri University
Summary
With the acceleration of developments in health technology, changes have occurred in professional knowledge and practices, as well as in patient needs and expectations. These changes have also influenced the way nursing care is delivered, leading to a shift from traditionally applied training methods to more modern and technology-based education tools. These include telephone counseling, online and web-based counseling, and the use of models. In recent years, the use of motivational interviewing techniques in providing counseling services has become increasingly common in the field of nursing and is considered an effective communication method. In light of this information, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of postpartum contraceptive counseling based on the Health Belief Model using motivational interviewing techniques, along with spousal participation, on women's attitudes toward family planning and their intention to use contraceptives.

The aim of the intervention is to improve attitudes toward family planning and increase the intention to use contraceptive methods.
