Maternal mortality constitutes a major public health problem in Côte d’Ivoire. Better management of pregnant patients and improved quality of pre-natal consultations could contribute to solving this problem. But what is the current situation of these a pre-natal consultations in the medical district of Grand-Bassam? To answer to this question, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out between August 26^th and September 30^th 2002 in three medical establishments in charge of pre-natal consultations in that District. It was noted that the privacy and the confidentiality during the examination were respected; yet on the other hand, the structures were sometimes unsuited and were insufficiently equipped. The health care professionals were not very accessible or friendly, and they had poor interpersonal communication skill. Recommendations were made to remedy these insufficiencies.
