Collaborative Care: Enhancing Health Outcomes for Women and Babies in South Georgia.
Abstract
In South Georgia, the collaborative efforts of the Ryan White Part D program, the Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) initiative, and Perinatal Health Partnership are instrumental in enhancing health outcomes for women and infants. This presentation will explore the integrated approach these programs take to address the multifaceted needs of at-risk populations, particularly in the context of HIV care and maternal health.
The Ryan White and HOPWA programs provide comprehensive support, including HIV treatment, food and housing assistance, transportation, and case management services. By facilitating access to essential healthcare and social services, these programs empower women to achieve better health outcomes. Key services such as medication assistance and preventative care not only support the health of mothers but also promote the well-being of their infants.
Perinatal Health Partnership complements these efforts by focusing on the critical period of pregnancy and postpartum care. Through clinical assessments, care coordination, and education tailored for high-risk pregnant women, the partnership aims to reduce maternal and infant morbidity. Emphasizing the importance of linkages to community resources, Perinatal Health Partnership ensures that mothers receive the holistic support necessary for a healthy pregnancy and a positive start for their infants.
