AHA unveils revamped maternal and child health webpages
The AHA this week launched refreshed webpages dedicated to maternal and child health. The redesigned platform offers three distinct subpages focused on Better Health for Mothers and Babies, child and adolescent health, and advocacy and policy. Hospitals and health systems are encouraged to explore the tools and resources, such as case studies, podcasts, infographics and action plans to drive their own improvement in maternal and child health.
