520 _aABSTRACT Maternal mortality remains a major public health challenge in Liberia, with high maternal mortality rates and limited access to quality maternal health care services (WHO, 2019). Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the factors affecting the provision of maternal health care in public health centres, with evidence from John F. Kennedy Medical Centre Monrovia, Liberia. The study employs qualitative research techniques due to its emphasis on the in-depth study of phenomena as experienced by participants, the qualitative research approach was deemed appropriate (Creswell & Creswell, 2018). This allowed for a better understanding of participants' views and the contextual elements that impact maternal health care delivery. According to the results, women are more likely to report verbal abuse than physical violence, neglect, or abandonment. Most women answered negatively when asked if they planned to return to public health facilities for future births, whereas a small percentage responded positively. Female healthcare consumers do not engage with their providers to promote and protect their active participation in achieving healthy and secure birth outcomes. Hence, healthcare providers should honour a mother's right to make decisions and treat her with dignity by providing safe, effective treatment during labour and delivery. Keywords: John F. Kennedy Medical Centre, Liberia, Maternal Health Care, Public Health Centers.
