Today we've released #RaisingTheBar for Maternal Health Equity&Excellence, a practical guide made to support healthcare provider institutions in taking a comprehensive, tailored approach to providing high-quality care that realizes #maternalhealth equity. npwf.info/3LHZQfc

With #RaisingTheBar, institutions and advocates can improve quality of care and reduce health disparities by implementing actions that strengthen their clinical care and institutional policies.

#RaisingTheBar employs 4 strategies to improve maternal health outcomes:
🔘Providing whole-person care
🔘Employing and supporting a diverse maternal health workforce
🔘Engaging and collaborating with impacted communities
🔘Advocating for and investing in maternal health equity

Whether you’re in a provider role, an advocate role, an employer role, or a community partner role we have both recommendations and successful case studies for how you can improve maternal health outcomes in your systems. Learn more about your role: npwf.info/40mHFQg
