Some clinicians believe that any rehab setting outside of an outpatient women’s health clinic provides subpar care to mothers during pregnancy and after birth. But what happens when hospitalists, OB/GYNs, nurses, and other maternal health providers recognize the value of having a rehab professional on their care team during a high-risk pregnancy admission, or when a new mother is experiencing functional impairments before hospital discharge? What do you do when local providers want to start offering rehab services in the home within the first weeks of postpartum recovery, while mothers are still healing and bonding with their newborn? How do you respond when your hospital system wants to extend perinatal triage services through telehealth rehab to reduce postpartum readmissions and connect patients to earlier guidance on mobility and recovery? Would you say, “No. Refer your patients to me when they’re ready for outpatient women’s health rehab.” Of course not. In our monthly meeting, designed for Perinatal Health Specialist Certification members, we will answer live questions on how to build maternal rehab services across diverse settings to meet patients across the continuum of care and improve maternal health outcomes earlier than the current standard. Topics will include how to identify the right setting for the care a patient is seeking, strategies for building referral networks across disciplines, billing considerations, collaboration with other providers, and practical approaches to improving maternal function and recovery with earlier access to rehab.
