Having a companion of choice during labor & childbirth can be a low-cost & and effective intervention to improve maternal care(WHO,2016).
To uphold this, we registered 45.4% partner presence in labor rooms for 2021 & this is a stride to ending #MaternalMortality.

#MaternalMortality is unacceptably high & the lack of regard for women’s lives by governments & healthcare systems are at the root of this. We know that access to the skilled care of #midwives before, during & after childbirth saves women & newborns' lives.

So disrespectful to make a father take a DNA test to take his child home after his partner has died from a preventable maternal death. Period. #hulu #AftershockDoc #blackmaternalhealth #maternalmortality #blackmamasmatter

Can’t wait to write a tell all about my experience during my last two trimesters dealing with incompetent doctors at Montefiore
Dr. Meena handles #obstetric cases in Mugu district. She’s pleased to report #maternalmortality has reduced to zero at her hospital in the last five years. Incredible progress, but with many still walking for days to get treatment, rural communities need more doctors like Meena.
