How we built our team: Collaborating with partners to strengthen skills in pregnancy,delivery,and newborn care

We describe how collaboration with outpatient community health centers and other disciplines resulted in the creation of a novel interdisciplinary inpatient maternal child health system that focuses on safety and collaboration. our maternal child health faculty team includes a mix of fellowship-and non-fellowship-trained,inpatient-and outpatient-based family physicians. our team provides a sustainable framework for faculty to practice both inpatient and outpatient maternity care and provides strong role models for our trainees.
