Article Synopsis
- Maternal mortality reviews highlight the importance of educating patients about warning signs of complications to decrease preventable deaths, with home visiting programs potentially playing a key role in community education.
- A study in Maryland evaluated how well these programs provide warning signs education and gathered feedback from staff on preferred educational materials, finding that most programs do offer some level of education but many staff were unsatisfied with existing materials.
- Results indicate strong interest among program staff for new educational resources, such as illustrated pamphlets and videos, suggesting a significant opportunity to improve maternal health education.
