Today is Maternal Health Awareness Day.From the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists:"Year after year, government data have shown that the maternal mortality rate in the United States remains unacceptably high, with Black and American Indian or Alaska Native pregnant and postpartum people disproportionately experiencing health inequities. The vast majority—roughly 80%—of maternal deaths are considered preventable, and nearly half of maternal deaths occur between seven and 365 days postpartum, not during delivery itself. But all of the resounding data about maternal deaths cannot capture the true scope and scale of those losses: the anguish felt by families who lose loved ones, the trauma endured by those with severe maternal complications, the tragedy of those unable to access needed abortion care, the emotional and financial cost of those recovering from severe maternal morbidity, the communities that are living with increasingly depleted health care resources, and the clinicians whose ethical obligations to their patients are compromised daily.Today, with patients in many states having lost their reproductive freedoms and care deserts expanding and touching more communities, it’s more critical now than ever that we stay committed to efforts to improve maternal health outcomes."Learn more here:www.acog.org/advocacy/policy-priorities/maternal-mortality-prevention/maternal-health-awareness-day ...
