Objectives:  This study validated a person-centred maternity care (PCMC) scale and assessed perception of PCMC and its associated factors among post-partum women.    Methods:  A cross-sectional study was conducted among 450 post-partum women in two districts in Enugu State, Nigeria, using a 30-item PCMC scale. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, descriptive, bivariate and Generalized Linear Models analyses were conducted.    Results:  Twenty-two items were retained in the PCMC scale with high internal reliability and goodness-of-fit indices. About 25% of women received high PCMC. Marrying at 20–29 years (β = 3.46, ρ = 0.017) and 30–49 years (β = −5.56, ρ = 0.020); self-employment (β = −7.50, ρ = 0.005); marrying government worker (β = 7.12, ρ = 0.020); starting antenatal care in the third trimester (β = −6.78, ρ = 0.003); high participation in decision-making (β = −10.41, ρ < 0.001); domestic violence experience (β = 3.60, ρ = 0.007); delivery at health centre (β = 18.10, ρ < 0.001), private/mission hospital (β = 4.01, ρ = 0.003), by non-skilled attendant (β = −16.55, ρ < 0.001) and community health worker (β = −10.30, ρ < 0.001); and pregnancy complication (β = 4.37, ρ = 0.043) influenced PCMC.    Conclusion:  The PCMC scale is valid and reliable in Nigeria. PCMC requires improvement in Enugu State. This study identified factors that may be considered for inclusion in intervention strategies.
