As we observe #BlackMaternalHealthWeek, it's crucial to shed light on the disproportionate health risks Black mothers face, like a higher risk for preeclampsia and a fatality rate that is 3 to 4 times higher compared to non-Hispanic white women. Early detection and equitable care can change outcomes. Let's commit to empowering women with knowledge and support for better health outcomes.
A Seattle mom’s journey highlights the reality Black women face during pregnancy and childbirth, with a 60% higher risk of preeclampsia. Dr. Patricia Egwuatu of Kaiser Permanente shares the importance of early detection and empowerment in Black maternal care. https://bit.ly/40KUPIf #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #KPWA

~287,000 women died during and following pregnancy and childbirth in 2020, yet most maternal deaths could have been prevented. Almost 95% occurred in low and lower middle-income countries. The high number of maternal deaths in some areas of the world reflects inequalities in access to quality health services, according to the World Health Organization. All women deserve access to high-quality care in pregnancy, and during and after childbirth, as timely treatment can make a difference. #InternationalDayforMaternalHealthandRights #IntlMHRDay #MaternalHealth #BMHW24

Every two minutes worldwide, a woman dies during pregnancy or childbirth (UN). Pregnancy exposes women to greater health risks, yet many of them do not have access to proper care. The lack of health facilities, trained caregivers, high cost of care, geographical isolation, family obligations... All these things add up. The challenges facing women are immense. That's why we focus on bringing free healthcare to the women who need it, even those in the most remote areas, and in conflict zones. At ALIMA, we believe that women's access to healthcare is not a privilege but a fundamental right, and we work every day to guarantee that right. #InternationalWomensDay

Her PLAN (Her Pregnancy and Life Assistance Network) is a program that connects providers across seven categories of care, offering holistic support to women through comprehensive medical, social, and material support. “It’s important to get that 360-degree view of the care a woman needs both before and after birth and get her plugged into all of those different categories of care.” The Directory at HerPLAN.org connects providers across the categories of care so they can find one another and be able to start sending patients and clients in the direction of further ongoing comprehensive care. Women and families may also access the directory and find the help and resources they need to be in the position to carry a pregnancy to term and receive the care they and their babies require after birth.
