Maternity assistants care for 95% of mothers and children in their own homes after delivery (Herten 2013). A branch organisation representing 70% of the Dutch maternity care organisations invited their 35 members to participate. Of the ten maternity care organisations interested in participating, seven were selected in an even distribution over the Netherlands. These organisations e-mailed an invitation with a link to the online questionnaire to their 2180 maternity assistants. No reminders were sent because enough respondents replied in the given time.
