Abstract

Stigma towards women living with HIV (WLHIV) during childbirth can lead to suboptimal care and clinical outcomes. In this paper we describe the design of MAMA, a simulation team-training curriculum for labor and delivery (L&D) providers to reduce HIV stigma, provide more respectful maternity care (RMC), and improve clinical empathy.
