Navigating the Challenges in Maternal and Neonatal Health with March of Dimes
In this episode, we explore the vital work of March of Dimes in supporting maternal and neonatal health, especially in the NICU. Guests Ashley Stoneburner and Dr. Amanda Williams discuss key clinical challenges, including rising preterm birth rates, disparities in maternity care access, and the impact of Medicaid cuts. We dive into the NICU Family Support Program, which provides essential resources like emotional support, mental health screenings, and educational tools to over 52,000 families across 70 NICUs. The episode also highlights the integration of Mammha, a behavioral health platform, and innovative initiatives like Mom-Baby Mobile Health Clinics. Additionally, we discuss how NICU providers can advocate for policy changes through events like March for Change and March for Babies as well as leverage resources like PeriStats to improve outcomes. Tune in to learn how March of Dimes is leading efforts to enhance care for mothers, babies, and families.
