    abstract = {This wording is a follow-up to home birth that takes place in the communities of Salinas, Cuatro
Esquinas, Cachisagua, Santa Fe, Canton Guaranda, province of Bolivar and that in our country is a millenary
practice making uancestral ritual which has allowed us to know different techniques that are performed at the
time of home birth, its actors and the reasons why some women prefer home delivery but not the hospital.
Community midwives play a fundamental role in this act, since, they are the ones who in accordance with their
knowledge and traditions, welcome the newborn, an activity that they carry out for generations (offspring and
knowledge inheritance) framed their participation and the relationship that they have a hospital health center,
showing, therefore, the relationship with the nursing staff in the community that seeks the satisfaction of the
needs as well as sharing and respecting their beliefs, values, customs, traditions, culture and language in a
process integrator being this the home birth, likewise by means of this writing it was determined that even at
present it is still maintaining the traditions including the ancestral medicine in some communities where the
midwives play a very important role at the time of doing this work.}
