The Maryland Patient Safety Center (MPSC) focuses on reducing risks and readmissions for mothers and newborns through comprehensive risk assessment tools. These tools aid healthcare providers in identifying potential postpartum challenges before discharge, addressing maternal and newborn risks such as high-risk medications, low Apgar scores, and various medical conditions. The MPSC further emphasizes the importance of timely referrals for follow-up care, ensuring that mothers and infants receive appropriate support. The initiative aims to lower readmission rates and improve overall healthcare outcomes.
