Nursing students are a part of nursing staff whose responsibilities are to care of mothers and achieve their expectations.

Three tools of data collection were used: Interviewing questionnaire, Likert Attitude Scale with high reliability (Cronbach's alpha coefficient r = 0.964) and Patient satisfaction scale (Risser, 1975), its reliability (Cronbach's alpha coefficient r = 0.910) Results: Mothers' mean age was 31.7. The majority of mothers (61%) were fairly satisfied towards care provided by nursing students with low mean score of total satisfaction scale (2.60+0.65) and more than half of mothers (63%) had negative attitude towards involvement of nursing students in their care. The results represented a highly positive significant correlation between the mean score of mothers? attitude and satisfaction. Conclusion: The study findings reflected that the nursing care delivered by the nursing students at the hospital is deficient and the mothers are not much satisfied and had negative attitude.
