Yesterday, University Hospital hosted @firstladynewjersey to introduce legislation to grow hospital and birthing center access for doulas. The initiative provides additional access to care and services for expecting mothers, highlighting the importance of doulas within the maternal health system.
The announcement of the legislation served as a platform to advocate for disenfranchised women and their families, particularly Black expecting mothers who are 3-5 times more likely to have labor and postpartum-related complications.
Together, we can make a positive impact on maternal health outcomes and create a healthier future for our community.
The Center for Advanced Liver Diseases and Transplantation has a lot to celebrate! Recently, the center ranked #1 in the nation based on its 3 year patient survival rates, according to the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients.
Congratulations to the UH and @rutgers_njms team!
