| Congratulations to Decatur Memorial Hospital, Edward Hospital, KSB Hospital, St. Elizabeth’s Hospital (Belleville) & St. Joseph Hospital (Breese) who applied jointly, and the University of Illinois Hospital at Chicago!
These hospitals have been selected by the Illinois Chapter of the March of Dimes to participate in piloting the California Toolkit, “Elimination of Non-Medically Indicated (Elective) Deliveries Before 39 Weeks Gestational Age.”
The Toolkit is a collaborative project developed by the March of Dimes, The California Maternal Quality Care Collaborative, and the Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Division - Center for Family Health of the California Department of Public Health. The Toolkit was developed to assist hospitals in the implementation of a comprehensive quality improvement program to address elective deliveries <39 weeks.
