Maternal emergencies can occur during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period, if not treated immediately, it can cause maternal and fetal death. Maternal neonatal emergencies can be prevented if first aid is provided for obstetric emergencies in mothers and babies. It also depends on the family's attitude in responding to this event. Family background includes age, knowledge and economic support/employment is one of the supporters of family attitudes in referring emergencies.

The instrument in the study was given to family members to fill out a questionnaire provided by the researcher. Data analysis of this study used gamma and somers'd correlation tests. The results of this study obtained a P value in the age category with an attitude of p = 0.003 r = 0.6; in the education category with an attitude of p = 0.01 r = 0.42 and in the employment category with an attitude of p = 0.001 r = 0.82. It can be concluded that there is a relationship between family background (age, education and occupation) and attitude in cases of referral of maternal emergencies.
