Being pregnant, giving birth, and holding your new baby close to your chest should be a season of excitement and joy for all parents. Yet, this celebration also comes with cause for concern for many Black women. Black women and babies face significantly poorer maternal and infant health outcomes, including an increased risk of death. It's Black Maternal Health Week and we have health tips to combat this ongoing issue.

We’re in this together: tending to Black maternal health Learn about Black maternal health disparities and how we can improve outcomes for Black mothers and babies through community-based efforts.

What an honor! Touro is one of only a select number of hospitals in Louisiana to receive the Birth Ready + Designation from the Louisiana Perinatal Quality Collaborative (LaPQC). We met the 37 requirements of the designation and performed at the Birth Ready + level for outcomes and process measures. Birth Ready Designation also celebrates improved perinatal health outcomes, the result of implementing clinical practices that promote safe, equitable, and dignified birth for all birthing persons in Louisiana.
