The paper emphasizes the need for comprehensive education and training programs for nurses, the implementation of evidence-based practices, and continuous monitoring and assessment of wound healing. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of nurse-led interventions on reducing maternal wound infections, improving maternal satisfaction, and enhancing overall well-being. By focusing on the critical role of nurses in maternal health, this paper provides valuable insights into strategies to mitigate maternal sepsis and improve maternal health outcomes worldwide.
